In My Desperate Time

Chapter 77 I dare not expect such happiness



Chapter 77 I dare not expect such happiness

“I am busy. I can’t go home now.”

Then, I hang up and power off the phone.

It is the first time I have been so bold as to hang up on Frances Louis. I don't know what will happen when I go back, but at this moment, I just want to wait for the results of the hospital.

I can't be relieved until I know Noah Jefferson is fine.

The operating room lights are on all the time.

As time goes on, my heart becomes more and more disturbed.

Finally, the operating room lights are off and the door opens from inside.

I go up to the doctor and ask anxiously, “How's he?”

“The extravasation in the skull has been cleared away, and the comminuted fracture in the shoulder is too serious. Even if it is recovered later, it can’t bear too much weight. His situation is stable now, so don't worry.”

Noah Jefferson is pushed out. The anesthetics makes him still asleep. But even in the dream, he is still smiling.

Looking at comatose Noah Jefferson, I stand by his bed and all mixed feelings rush into my heart.

Soon afterwards, Noah Jefferson’s father and mother come to the hospital.

They live in another city. It seems that they have just got off the plane.

“Mr. and Mrs. Jefferson.”

I try to say hi to them politely.

Noah Jefferson's mother looks at me for a while, then she frowns and slaps me.

I am stunned by her slap.

“Auntie…”

“Don't call me auntie! Noah Jefferson must have committed big crimes in his previous life to meet you! He got poor grades because of you and can only enter into an inferior school, otherwise Noah Jefferson would have had a better job now. I never thought he would see you again. I heard you got divorced. How could you be so shameless to haunt my son!”

Noah Jefferson’s mother gets angry and holds her purse to hit me.

Although I am wronged, I can’t fight against an elder. I can only use one hand to withstand her as well as try to hide aside.

The hospital is crowded. All people are standing outside the ward and watching us.

“You bitch, leave my son alone! You can’t disturb my son no matter how horny you are! My son has never even had a girlfriend, I can’t let you ruin him!” His mother hits and curses, and the words she curses become more and more embarrassing.

It’s no use for his father stopping her many times, and he can only stand by anxiously.

“Mom, what are you doing!” Noah Jefferson's voice comes, and his mother stops and runs anxiously toward him.

“My son, are you okay? Mom told you to stay away from this bitch, but you wouldn't listen. Now you have almost killed yourself. If you keep seeing her, I would kill myself right here!”

His mother is determined.

Noah Jefferson frowns and looks at me intently, “Mom, Jane Noyes has never influenced my study. when I was a student, it was me who always haunted her. I like her and it’s just my own wishful thinking. But because I was a coward, I missed her. Now god has given me another chance, if I don’t grasp it well, I will regret for the rest of my life. If I can’t marry her, I'd rather never marry in my whole life.”

“Stop being stupid!” his mother growls.

“Mom, if you keep stopping us, you will lose your son!” Noah Jefferson says calmly.

Noah Jefferson poses a difficult problem to his mother. On one hand, she certainly doesn't want him to see me again, but on the other hand, she doesn't want to grow apart with her son because of me.

To be honest, I am really moved by what Noah Jefferson says.

I thought there was nothing left in my life but misfortune. But I never thought that there is one person in this world loves me so much.

That’s enough for me.

But I dare not expect such happiness.

I smile at Noah Jefferson and say softly, “Thank you, Noah Jefferson, thank you for liking me. But it’s impossible for you and me. I'll never be with you.”

His mother is relieved to hear me say this, and her expression is a little embarrassed. I guess it's because she knows that she misunderstood me and feels sorry.

“Jane Noyes, don't refuse me so quickly. I'll wait for you, no matter how long. I have a lifetime to wait, and as long as you are not married, I will always be here and wait for you.”

I never expect that Noah Jefferson would be so determined.

The atmosphere is so awkward now. Since he has someone to take care of him. I say goodbye and leave the hospital.

It is getting late, and the wind has died down. I get what Nicole Snow needs and hurry back to the company. It's time to get off and probably Nicole Snow is ready to leave.

I turn on the phone. Barely had I arrived the company’s door when Steven Song called me urgently.

“What happened between you and Frances Louis, he has come here to look for you.”

“I can't explain clearly in a few words. Did you tell him where I was?” I ask.

“I said you were in the company.” Steven Song says.

I breathe a sigh of relief. At least I could use work overtime as an excuse later.

But it turns out that I rejoice too soon. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“But he's stuck in my office. You'd better come up and take care of it yourself.”
