“Ah, it’s a long story. Just send us to the hospital now!” Renee said, as she knew that they didn’t havetime for idle chit-chat, especially not with Stefan’s critical condition.
“Alright!” Liam nodded, suppressing the resentment he held for the man and carrying him into his car.He then drove as quickly as possible to the nearest hospital. Once he got there, he carried Renee inhis arms, yelling at the emergency unit with a panicked expression.novelbin
“Doctor, please help!”
Renee, however, turned to look at Stefan, who was still lying in the car. She grabbed Liam by the armand said, “Don’t mind me for now, his condition is worse than mine. He should receive treatment first!”
Liam had always listened to Renee’s every order, but this time was different. He was still dashingthrough the halls as if he was participating in a marathon.
He then lowered his gaze to speak to the woman in his arms. “Renee, I love and respect you a lot, butplease don’t forget that I am only a man. I am not as compassionate as you think I am. I’ve alreadydone everything I can by bringing him to the hospital. I’m sorry I can’t do more than that!”
In the end, Renee went into surgery right away, as the doctors did their best to stabilize her condition.
She had a concussion and her right leg had a comminuted fracture. Although she wasn’t in criticalcondition, she was still required to be monitored for one whole day, so that they could ensure that shehad fully stabilized.
Hence, after a full day, Renee was finally moved from the ICU to the normal ward, and was able tocontact the others. Her leg was currently in a cast, and her entire body was confined to the bed.
Liam, on the other hand, was holding a nutritious meal in his hand, approaching her with a worriedexpression. “How do you feel, Boss? Are you hungry? You haven’t eaten for an entire day. Come on,have some food. IV
Renee was definitely starving, but she didn’t have the appetite. Instead, she grabbed Liam’s arm andasked hurriedly. “How’s Stefan Hunt? Is his leg okay?”
Hearing this, Liam’s expression darkened as he tried to avoid the topic. He scooped a spoonful ofcongee and tried comforting Renee, as if she was some kind of kid. “Did you know that sea cucumbercongee is very nutritious, Boss? I heard it helps with curing wounds too. Have some while it’s stillwarm.”
Renee pushed the spoon away, insisting on knowing Stefan’s condition. Her tone was demanding andharsh as she said, “How is Stefan Hunt? I can only eat if I know he’s safe.”
“It’s been four years, and you still haven’t moved on from him, huh?” Liam put down the spoon, thecheer on his handsome face replaced by melancholy.
“Even though I’ve stayed by your side for so many years, even though I’m willing to do anything foryou, even though I risked the entire Osborne family’s future for you… I still can’t replace him, can I?”
“Liam, don’t be like that. You know that’s not what I mean, I just…”
“Don’t say that… don’t treat me like I’m your pet. I’ll stop calling you Boss too. Don’t you realize we’regetting married soon? Do we even look like a couple to you?”
Liam’s eyes were filled with his deep love and admiration for her. He had always wanted to ask herthese questions, but he knew that he would only be humiliating himself if he did.
He thought that he could touch Renee’s heart in time, and he thought she would forget about StefanHunt. He simply never expected her to get involved with that man again.
He couldn’t just pretend that he was fine with this.
“That heartless man was the one who hurt you the most, so why… Why haven’t you moved on fromhim yet? Is he really that great?!” Liam questioned angrily, unable to contain his emotions any longer.
Renee understood why he was lashing out, so she didn’t get mad at him for yelling. Instead, she lookedat the man calmly. “Do you know why I’m so concerned about him?” “Why else?’ You just cant let himgo! You still love him, don’t you?!” Liam spat and turned away, his tone furious
