Chapter 7
Vincent was quickly taken into the operating room.
Mr. Lockwood and Mrs. Lockwood, who received the news, rushed over. After hearing the account from several brothers, Eleanor Lockwood was so angry that she immediately dropped the Buddhist beads from her wrist.
Crazy for a woman for ten years, now even disabled his right hand, I think he’s gone mad!
The brothers hurriedly approached and comforted the two elderly people, saying all kinds of kind and soothing words, finally managing to make thei
calm down.
A few hours later, the lights in the operating room
om went out
The doctor pushed the person out, his tone filled with relled.
“Delivered in time, the surgery was also successful. Just need to rest well for a few months and everything will be fine.”
Upon hearing these words, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Knowing t
that it had no impact, Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood didn’t want to see this disobedient child and flew overseas overnight to attend a meeting Before leaving, Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood thanked the caregivers one by one and invited them to visit their home next time.
When they could reach Sophie, they just passed by as if they hadn’t seen her, and thanked the medical staff nearby. Watching their departing figures, Sophie instantly understand everything.
Vincent had never told his family that he had been in a six–year relationship with a girlfriend,
as soon
Well, there is no need to introduce someone who is bound to break up as
as the time comes.
During the hospitalization, Sophie stayed in the ward all the time, busy taking care of everything, and only slept for four or five hours a day. Looking at her increasingly haggard complexion, Vincent showed a pained expression.
“I’m fine, you go and rest.”
He forcibly pulled her down and handed her a glass of water.
He didn’t explain what happened that day, and it seemed like he also didn’t know how to explain it.
There was a pause, and then he casually asked a few questions.
Which friends have come to the hospital these days? I have been sleeping for too long, did I miss anyone? Mia… has she come?
Sophie clenched her hand around the cup and glanced at him.
She knew that in his entire sentence, only the last few words were what he cared about the most.
So her answer was concise,
“They all came. Mia, probably scared and traumatized, didn’t c

Upon hearing this, Vincent furrowed his brow and lost interest in small talk. He picked up his phone and laboriously tapped on the screen to type. Listening to the continuous WhatsApp notification sound, Sophie knew that he was once again concerned about Mia, Silently, she got up, complete the discharge procedures.
Just as the car arrived at the doorstep, before going upstairs, Vincent received a call from Mia and turned around to leave,

Looking at the bandage wrapped around his hand and then glancing at his hurried footsteps, Sophie’s comforting words got stuck in her throat.
She averted her gaze, tumed around, and returned to the apartment.
In the following three days, Vincent did not come back.
The closer the departure date, the calmer Sophie’s mood became.
After going back, she planned to rest while looking for a job, so she kept looking at the job vacancies in her hometown.
The day before leaving, the high school classmates said they wanted to get together, and she happened to have nothing to do, so she joined in the lun Many years had s
I passed, and these old classmates had all changed a lot. When they met again, they sighed and exclaimed for a long time.
When Sophie walked in, everyone couldn’t believe their eyes at the sight of the beautiful and stunning lady, who was the same person as the shy and nerdy girl from ten years ago.
In the face of everyone’s shock, she appeared calm and composed. After exchanging a few greetings, she sat down with some old friends as before.
When almost everyone gathered, the monitor was just about to stand up and propose a toast
The door suddenly pushed open.
