After a long time, Luke said in a hoarse voice, "You don't need to stay here tonight. You can go back now."
Eileen froze and put down the fruit plate in her hand.
"If you stay here out of guilt, you can go back now. I'm already much better."
She glanced at him and nodded slowly.
Then she looked away and walked out of the ward.
The ward quieted down. Luke sat there.
Facing the black sky, he seemed to think of something and called Brandy to send Eileen home.
The atmosphere was dull and tense. He felt pain in his wounds.
He seemed to feel pain in his chest and other places all over his body.
He couldn't bear it, so he took a cigarette out of his pants pocket, put it in his mouth, and started smoking.
But his chest hurt all the time.
Eileen returned to the hospital.
She looked pale. When she went to see Ruben, she vomited blood twice more.
As soon as the doctor saw her, he said seriously, "How dare you leave the hospital during chemotherapy?"
Eileen smiled, "I'm sorry."
Lying on the hospital bed, she suddenly felt a sharp pain. She curled up and rolled over and over on the bed.
"She's getting engaged to Ruben in three days..." Luke said slowly.
Kingsley held the water glass tightly and said, "Are you sure?"
"Of course. I heard it three times." Luke said in a low voice. He seemed to be very breathless.
"That should be the truth. When you were sent into the operating room, I talked to her..."
After taking a few light sips of water,
Kingsley said, "I told her a lot about you, including the process of saving her. I told her a lot, but I didn't expect that she didn't want to be with you anymore..."
Luke looked at him, not expecting him to have talked to Eileen.
Kingsley said in a gentle voice, "When you got married in the past, you asked me for advice. I said that she was worthy of you, but maybe you were not worthy of her. I didn't expect the situation to get worse. I think that even though you hurt her before, you didn't do it on purpose. Even if you did it on purpose, she should forgive you because everyone will probably make mistakes. You have corrected yourself and given a lot to her, but she ignored you. This is actually quite normal. You hurt her so deep before, so she was afraid. However, you saved her without hesitation and got hurt in the abandoned factory. Almost no one is willing to risk their life to save another person. You made it, but she was indifferent. It means that she doesn't love you. So no matter what you do, she will not come back to you. Therefore, I advise you to let her go."
