The doctor"s words made Samuel frown. Without him by her side, Ella hardly knew how to look after herself well.
"Thanks, doctor."
After leaving the doctors" office, Samuel went into the ward. Ella was lying there, deep asleep, and receiving a transfusion.
He looked at his watch. It was past 5 am. Then he sat close to her by her bedside and looked at her pale face.
She seemed busier than him and had lost a lot of weight recently.
Her pointed chin showed, which made her less beautiful than when she was pregnant.
He was observing her when his phone rang. Who could it be this early in the morning?
Immediately he remembered he was in America. It was past 5 pm in China. Now it made sense.
He took out his phone and saw the number. He quickly stood up and went to the window. He picked the call.
"Mr. Shao, we"ve got lead on Miss Bo"s accident."
"Tell me about it."
"In the storeroom where the wires are placed, we found white stuff on one of the wires. After studying it, we found that the wire was daubed with some kind of chemical, which corrodes and weakens wires. The wire with this chemical would become frayed when weight is applied, and then eventually snaps.
It turned out that the accident was caused by someone on purpose."
"Human error or on purpose? I need clarification. Please find out who did it! Try to obtain surveillance video of the set or interrogate the person who was responsible for keeping the stage equipment." The man on the other-side of the phone was horrified by his aggressive tone. He had never heard Samuel speak like that since they knew each other.
"Of course, Mr. Shao. I"ll keep you informed."
After hanging up the phone, Samuel was thoughtful for some time and then he returned to the bedside.
With nothing to do, Samuel began to play with Ella"s hair and muttered, "Ella! Wake up. I have so much to tell you!
Your failure to take good care of yourself means I must keep you by my side, or I won"t be free from worry.
Ella..."
Ella had a good sleep and when she woke up, she stared at the c
Falling from n.o.bility, Zen Luo became a humble slave and served as a human punchbag for his former cousins. Inadvertently, he found a way to refine himself into a weapon and a legend started because of that. With a strong belief in never surrender, he strove for revenges and pursued big dreams. Warriors from various clans contended for hegemony and the world was stirred. Relying on the body that was comparable to a powerful weapon, Zen beat his numerous enemies on his way to the immortality. Would he succeed eventually?
the night before ill.u.s.trated that he was there as her lover, nothing more. And at the moment, he was crossing a line by trying to control her.
Samuel checked her Weibo profile on the phone instead of replying to her. Her emotions and movie & TV promotions were on it, which he had seen umpteen times.
He would guess her mood and check her comment section as well as get somebody to delete nasty words from netizens.
As a result, Ella"s comment section was peaceful, without verbal abuse. All the comments were in her support.
He went on to browse her profile when he saw a set of promotional photos taken a month earlier. In the photos, she wore revealing clothes, just like the clothes she wore to take commercial photos for GL, as their spokeswoman.
"Never take photos that expose your back or bosoms, or else..."
He said and continued to look through her profile without paying attention to Ella"s reaction.
"Or else... It"s none of your business." Ella replied after finishing her meal, wiping the corners of her mouth with a napkin.
She got out of bed, cleared the table and went into the bathroom.
She was tired of listening to him. Why should she do what he said? It was ridiculous.
After closing the door to the bathroom, she looked at herself in the mirror. Her hair was a little s.h.a.ggy. So she unbound her hair and let it fall to its full length.
