Chapter 1334
Enter title…
After Leia and Renee walked out of the ward, Leia pulled Renee to a corner near the stairs.
“That ring… It’s Stefan’s, right?”
“Yes.” Renee nodded tiredly, unable to run from the truth any longer. “I’m sure you’ve gained
some information, right?”
Leia knew that she could no longer hide it since things had turned out this way. She could
only tell Renee everything she knew. “I’d been wondering if someone had done this on
purpose after something went wrong with Quinton’s accident. So, I went to the medical staff
and interrogated them.”
“What did they say?” Renee asked cautiously.
“That nurse claimed that the main surgeon received a call before Quinton’s surgery telling
him to do the surgery well or something like that. The caller was Shirley, so I went to find her
and confront her. She claimed that it was Stefan’s order…” Leia told Renee everything. “I
thought Shirley was just trying to create problems, so I wanted to get more evidence first,
but… it seems that the evidence came to us. When I saw the ring, I knew I had to tell you.”
“Thank you, Lei. I could have guessed it even if you didn’t tell me. I was just fooling myself
and didn’t want to accept the truth. I always thought that he wasn’t that bad…” Renee
admitted, her heart aching.
“We can’t blame you or him. After all, he’s forgotten everything about you, so you don’t
mean anything to him anymore. It’s not odd that he would do something like this for the
sake of profit,” Leia said hesitantly, unsure of how to console Renee.
“Yeah, I know he’s forgotten about me. I’m the only one who keeps holding on to the past.
It’s my fault!” Renee took a deep breath, fighting back tears.
“What are you going to do now? Are you going to talk to him? ” Leia asked, feeling sorry for
Renee.
“I haven’t thought about it yet…” Renee leaned back against the wall and looked up at the
ceiling, smiling bitterly. “It’s meaningless either way. It would be stupid of me to still hope
that he and my brother can stop fighting.”
Renee wanted to be alone, so she went to the hospital’s garden downstairs. She sat in front
of the pond and watched it quietly.
Leia did not follow her. She knew that it was useless to worry; she had to wait for Renee to
make a decision.
Renee sat there the whole night. The stars appeared, and moonlight illuminated the pond.
She sat there alone like an emotionless statue. A cold breeze toyed with her hair, and she
hugged her arms, suddenly realizing how cold she was.
Someone draped a coat on her shoulders, and when she turned around, she found that it
was Justin.
“Phoenix, you’ve been sitting here for hours. Aren’t you tired? I’ll carry you back, okay?”
Justin had both of his hands in his pockets as he smiled gently at her.
“When did you get here?” She whispered guiltily as she looked up at him.
