Female Novel
Chapter 308
Kimberly said, "No way! You're badly injured. I can't go anywhere."
She would feel guilty for the rest of her life if she left Benedict right then or if she let Benedict sendher to the banquet.
She didn't want to be such a heartless person!
"Silly girl," Benedict said to Kimberly softly. He couldn't help but smiled faintly and said, "Don't youlike him very much? I'm trying to help you."
"No!" Kimberly shook her head hard. Tears welled up within her eyes when she saw Benedict givinga wry and self-mocking smile. Then, she said with tears rolling down her cheeks, "I don't need youto do this. You just need to rest in the hospital to recover!"
"Didn't I say that I'm fine? These are just some external injuries. I'll be fine as long as it's bandaged.Let's go now. We will really miss the banquet if we don't leave now."
"No!" Kimberly bit her lower lip hard and burst into tears. She said, "I don't need you to help me. Doyou understand? I will go by myself even if I want to go. I will never let you send me there again! Idon't want to trouble you anymore..."
In the end, Kimberly was choked with tears.
She had been suspecting that Benedict had bad intentions. However, she felt that she was the badperson instead. Benedict had been treating her nicely, but she kept on suspecting Benedict.
He even insisted on sending her to the banquet even when he was badly injured right then.
The nurse, who was standing at the side, cried when she saw that. It was too touching. She thoughtthey were a couple. Unexpectedly, they were not...
Also, Benedict kept on helping Kimberly to get together with Maddox. It was such a touching scene!
How much courage did he need to help the woman he loved be together with another man?
"Stop crying," Benedict frowned and said when he saw Kimberly sobbing. He was really doing thisfor her own good. Unexpectedly, she rejected him.
"Time is running out. Let's go now. I'll come back to the hospital to rest after sending you to thebanquet. Is this okay?"
Kimberly shook her head vigorously. However, Benedict grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of theward in the next second. Kimberly's face turned pale instantly. She reacted, "I don't want to go.Fine! Let me go! I'll go by myself."
The nurse was moved and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Although Benedict was injured, he was still strong because he was a man. Kimberly couldn't resisthim at all. She didn't dare to touch him because he was injured. Therefore, she could only allowherself to be pulled forward by him.
Although Benedict looked fine when he was pulling Kimberly, Kimberly could feel that Benedict wasnot as strong as before. He must have suffered worse injuries than she imagined. Moreover, whatthe nurse said to her before made her more convinced that he was just trying to tough it out.
How could he hold on if she didn't stop him? He was the one who wanted to tough it out. His bodywas unfit for that at all.
"Benedict, stop it! I have something to tell you... Benedict Yardley!"
Kimberly was so angry that she called out his full name!
Benedict was catching his breath. He stopped walking and looked at Kimberly sadly.
Kimberly gasped. Tears welled up within her eyes. She said, "Listen to me, I know you're doing thisfor my own good. I can take a taxi there. Please go back to the ward and have a rest, or I won't goto the banquet!"
Kimberly smiled at Benedict and continued, "It doesn't matter if I'm not going to the banquet.Maddox is my husband. I will explain it to him later. Benedict, I'm not going. I'll go back to the wardwith you."
She wanted to pull Benedict back. However, Benedict stood still and Kimberly couldn't pull him backno matter how hard she tried.
In the end, Kimberly finally couldn't help crying.
"I really don't need you to do so much for me... Please don't do this. Come with me and have a restin the ward. I will feel guilty if you're faint again." Benedict stared at Kimberly deeply and gave a wrysmile after a while. He said, "Why would you feel guilty? I'm not doing this to make you feel guilty. Ijust hope that you can be happy."
"Let's go. The banquet is not over yet. Let me send you to the entrance of the banquet so that I canhave a piece of mind."
Kimberly was speechless.
"Let's go. There won't be enough time if we delay any longer... You'll just be wasting your time if youstay here with me. You won't be able to see Maddox either."
Kimberly stood still. She really couldn't do such a cruel thing.
"I wanted to do all of these things. I can't give you happiness, but I can still do something for you.What I can do right now is to send you back to Maddox's side. I don't want you to... stay here butkeep on worrying about Maddox at the same time. If you don't leave, I am afraid that I can't... resthere with peace of mind. Ahem." After saying that, Benedict coughed hard a few times. He lookedweak, as if he was about to fall to the ground.
Kimberly was so scared that her face turned pale. She quickly nodded and promised him, "Okay, Ipromise you."
"You have finally agreed to this. Let's go. We should not delay any longer."
There was no way for Kimberly to persuade him. She might as well let him go with her instead ofcontinuing to persuade him.
"Let's take a taxi. You can't drive now. Also, your car... I don't think you can drive it now. Your car isat the police station."
Benedict smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Later, both of them stopped a car by the roadside. Benedict was in so much pain that he broke outin cold sweat when he bent down and got into the car. Kimberly was so scared that her face turnedpale. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Benedict endured the pain and got into the car. Kimberly had no choice but to follow himin.novelbin
"Are you really okay?"
Benedict forced a smile and said, "I promised you that I will take you to him. So, I'll definitely not goagainst my promise." Then, he said to the driver, "Go to this address."
Benedict told the driver the address and said, "There's a car accident on the bridge. So, we can'tcross the bridge. Take a detour and go as fast as you can, but of course, safety is the top priority."
"Okay."
The driver nodded and stepped on the gas pedal quickly, driving the car away.
Sitting in the car, Kimberly was still very nervous. She bit her lower lip.
Her mind was in a mess right then. Benedict was badly injured. However, he still insisted onsending Kimberly to the banquet. On the other hand, the banquet had begun a long time ago. WasMaddox still waiting for her?
