In the hospital.
The effect of the sedative began to wear off slowly. Grace gradually regained consciousness, opening her eyes.
Charlie rested his head on the bed, sleeping and wrinkling his handsome brow deeply.
Grace also frowned. She raised her hand and subconsciously touched his forehead, trying to smooth out the wrinkles on his brow.
Charlie was woken up from light sleep. He opened his eyes and asked, "You're awake? How are you feeling?"
"Quite well." Grace moved. "By the way,
how's the person I hit last night?"
She was in a daze at that time. She only remembered that she was very dizzy.
All she could see was a white flash.
When she bumped into the car in front of her, she was not completely unconscious. She remembered clearly that she had hit someone!
"The man was slightly bruised, but the woman was seriously injured. She had an operation last night. It was successful, but she's still in a coma. If she can wake up in forty-eight hours, she'll be safe."
"What if she can't wake up?" Grace asked.
Charlie paused. "Then she'll be in danger."
Grace fell silent, looking out the window. Charlie didn't know what she was thinking.
"I won't let anything happen to you!" Charlie stared at her, saying in a deep voice with a heavy heart, "I'll protect you!"
"What if they want to sue me?"
"As long as they are human beings, they have weaknesses. I'll grab their weaknesses!"
Charlie answered, "I will find their weaknesses no matter how long it takes."
Walking over, Grace sincerely bent down and apologized. The family members were indignant. They rushed up, grabbed her collar, and shook her violently. "She's only twenty-five years old, and she's getting married in a month. Do you know that? Do you know?"
Grace was very weak. She couldn't steady herself while being shaken.
Seeing this, Charlie stood in front of her, picked her up, and walked towards the ward.
Grace was reluctant to leave, but Charlie ignored it and strode forward on his long legs.
What they said made Grace feel even guiltier.
That girl was only twenty-five years old. She was so young and would get married next month.
Her happy life had just begun, but now it was ruined by Grace.
Grace kept silent. She was always talkative and seldom so depressed.
Charlie couldn't bear to see her like this, but Grace was stubborn. No one could make her change her mind.
