741 It Was Indeed You
Actually, what surprised her was Francesca's reaction. Only when she heard that Darren was in surgery did she show her fear. But later she looked calm and reassured that Nora felt like it was her illusion. How could the woman who loved Darren even more than her own life would be so calm when he was fighting with death? So, she ended up voicing out this question.
The answer she received was, "My Regi is very strong. Stronger than you think. He will come back to me just like always do. I believe in my son. Why should I worried unnecessarily?"
If she had shown how she was breaking down inside maybe it wouldn't have hurt Nora as much as it did seeing her like this. She had no way to comfort her at all.
....
Cali had just come to visit Xiu and Darren but she wasn't allowed in. The security was so tight and no one recognized her. So, she had to call someone. She called Nora but the latter didn't pick up. She even tried Darren's number but it was turned off.
She eventually called Ying and it was Han Bohai who took her call."Oh, where is Ying?"
"She is sleeping, " answered Han Bohai. They had to give her sedatives to sleep. And during her sleep, Darren had gone to surgery. That's why she knew nothing about Darren's condition."Is everything okay? Why are you looking for her?"
Cali took a pause before replying, "I came to the hospital to see Xiu and Regan but there is so much security and they are not letting me in. I tried calling Nora but she didn't take my call. As for Regan, his phone is off. I don't know what's going on."
Han Bohai figured that she knew nothing about what conspired when she wasn't here. Honestly, he didn't know whether he was supposed to tell her or not but he still thought she would want to know. So, he told her everything.
Cali was stunned to hear the details from Han Bohai and couldn't even move from her place."How is Regan now?"
"I haven't heard anything yet which means he must be in surgery right now, " replied Han Bohai.
"Thanks for letting me know!" With that being said, she was about to hang up but added, "One more thing, can you help me get in?"
Soon, Han Bohai really got her in and directed her towards the operation theatre. After that, he was on his way to Ying's room when his gaze fell on Xiu's room. Both Xin Zemin and Zhao Huan was sitting outside her room even now. He figured Xin Zimen must have gone to check up on Darren. He had an impulse and walked over.
It rather made one's heart ache when they looked at her. Such a bright and lively person was laying so silent and dull in the hospital. He didn't know why he felt so sad. Clearly, he didn't know her too well. They had only met a couple of times. Then why was this emotional pull so strong?
Were all his bizarre conjectures really true? Or was he really just deluding himself just because he was desperate?
He walked to her side and spoke in a very soft voice, "I really don't care who you are. You just be alright okay?" Out of his old habit, he held her hand and sat down saying, "Since the first time we met, I had a question in my mind... Can I call you sister? Even if it's just to fool myself?" He bit his nail as he added, "There are so many things about you that remind me of her. Not just your name. Even though your eyes look different, the way you look at me exactly like her. Even the way you stand on my side is exactly the same."
He looked towards the ceiling as he voiced, "Do you think she'd angry with me? It's been years but I don't even see her in my dreams. She doesn't come to meet me. It breaks my heart. Even if she's upset, she could at least come to see me once. I just want to ask her if she is happy now? I hope she is not lonely anymore."
He turned his eyes back to Xiu and smiled melancholically, "But there is a big difference between you and her. You have so many people who love you, worry about you, care about you, and are waiting for you anxiously. So, for those who are waiting for you, don't give up just yet."f𝑟e𝒆𝘸e𝗯novel - 🅽🅽novel
He was about to leave when he felt her hand twitch and stopped. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly but before he could call a doctor, she held his pinky finger and said in a raspy and very frail voice, "Xiao Bobo..." He stopped right where he was and stared at her with a complicated gaze."I'm sorry, I couldn't even tell you it was just a goodbye dinner."
Han Bohai's heart clenched as that soft, and weak voice fell into his ears. The tears he had been fighting finally came out like a stream. He watched how her eyes closed again and she fell asleep again.
He touched her hair gently and said, "Because it wasn't a goodbye dinner. It was never meant to be our goodbye! You said even if you have to break the doors of hell to stand with this brother, you'd do it. As my sister, how can you go back on your words." He sobbed silently as he added, "I knew it was you. I wasn't going crazy. It was indeed you!"
