Kill Me, Heal Me

Chapter 31 Inquiry

Belle Ye spotted the chance when Echo Xu left, she crept up from the hospital bed and heard the slight footsteps outside as soon as she walked to the door. The keenness she had developed over the past few years immediately made her alert and decisively returned to lie down and close her eye, pretending to fall asleep.

She thought the person who came in must be Echo or the doctor.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer but the sound was very soft and the pace didn’t sound like Echo’s or the doctor's. Although Belle was closing her eyes, her brain was running dizzyingly. A person suddenly came into her mind and her body frozen reflexively. It took her a while to think that this was impossible.

How could he come to see her?

Ethan Mo walked into Bella’s ward and he seemed to hesitate for a moment when he reached the door, he walked in resolutely. The ward was all white with no end, he saw the sleeping woman in the bed after stepping in and looking around the ward.

Ethan thought that he would meet Belle again before seeing her again in the underground city, maybe her temper would become more arrogant and eccentric after she escaped from prison, or maybe she didn’t know how to repent and only wanted to hurt people… but he never thought that she would have changed beyond recognition when they met again.

Can a person be totally changed in five years?

He didn’t know what happened after Bella left the prison in the past five years. He planned to let her suffer a bit after he sent her to jail ruthlessly and didn’t care anything about her. He was very clear about this woman’s personality after had known her for over ten years, she had been spoiled by

Nathan Luo so that she could do those bad things to her best friend, he naturally would not let her go easily.

The situation of May Ning in the hospital turned bad during that time, so he stayed in the hospital every day and almost forgot the woman who he hated so much. Next time when he heard about her was half a year later that she escaped from prison.,

Prison Break?

Ethan didn’t doubt it at all because that something that Belle could do. She is originally a woman with fearless pride and arrogance. She was pampered by Nathan and she was spoiled by him since her childhood. So it would not be weird that she could not stand the harsh life in prison. He sent someone to find her whereabouts and even went to Nathan’s overseas property. However, the result was that Belle didn’t even go to find her elder brother.

He didn’t believe and then he personally went abroad to deal with Nathan. After many inquiries, he finally determined that Nathan didn’t know anything about those things happened to Belle in China and also didn’t know where she was.

There was no news of her after that.

Ethan’s hatred hardened to disappear and sometimes he thought that an arrogant woman like her had better starve to death on the street. But sometimes, he thought about her inadvertently and there was another complex emotion that he didn’t even notice.

They really met again after that.

Ethan looked at the woman on the hospital bed. The delicate and charming face had become mottled and bleak, even make him think she is ugly. The perfect and small facial features vaguely still had the shadow of five years ago, but it became different again after a blink of an eye. Her hair was dull and

messy whilst the eyes were dull, he can hardly see a trace of blood on her bone- like face and skin, her slender and thin figure seems to fall down when the wind blows… Is this the life she chose after escaping?

Echo said that she had a high fever, actually, it’s because she had some physical problem after he found her back. But he was shocked by the complex emotions of hatred and reencounter at that time, so he didn’t really care. He suddenly realized that she was so sick when he looked at her now. It seems that she could disappear at any time when lying there.

He couldn’t help walking towards the hospital bed with a pain in his eyes.

Belle who was pretending to sleep in the hospital bed really felt her scalp tingling at this moment and she was almost certain now that the person who came just now was Ethan. She didn’t know why he would be here. Ethan came just after she arrived at the hospital which meant obviously he didn’t come because of her.

As for who he comes for… does it still need to think?

She satirized herself in her heart and a burst of bitterness spread, her heart still couldn’t help pumping pain when the named was mentioned until now. The pain was so painful and permeated into her bone.

May Ning. Does she stay in this hospital as well?

It seems that she hasn’t awakened in these years and does she has a chance to wake up in the rest of her life?

Belle thought vaguely what Oliver said to her. He said that as least she is still alive and May might never wake up and her children couldn’t be alive again.

Belle didn’t know when May and Ethan had a baby, she only knew that her baby was gone as well.

As for who has a more tragedy life, May or herself? May became a human vegetative but she won Ethan’s guardianship and love for five years; Although she, Belle is still alive, she prefers to die.

Who is more pitiful? Who knows?

The long eyelashes covering the eyelids shuddered suddenly when she thought that May also lived in this hospital. Ethan noticed that immediately. Belle knew that she was exposed and her heart was tight, she pretended to wake up and opened her eyes, her eyes were stunned. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Headache and dizzy suddenly overwhelming, she shook her nerves and forced herself to be a little bit spirited, her face changed when she saw Ethan in front of her. She subconsciously grabbed the quilt and buried herself in it. Her body shivered under the quilt and was so shocked.

Ethan’s face was blue, he walked over and pulled the quilt away, then he pulled Belle out of the quilt. Belle had a high fever and she was dizzy, she felt even worse now after being rudely pulled by Ethan. Her body felt more uncomfortable, “You, What do you want?”

“You think that I can’t catch you If you hide yourself in it?” Ethan squinted at her and there was full of ironic in his eyes: “If so, you should hide far away from me, you’d better hide in outer spaces. I won’t catch you and even the police won’t reach you.”

Belle kept silent, she shrunk in her arms and kept shaking. She didn’t dare to say a single word at all.

She just felt so uncomfortable.

Belle was not sure if she would pass out or not if she didn’t let her hands go and she was so afraid that the doctor would come to check her body if she passed out. The Belle at this moment already has nothing left besides the last little bit of dignity. She didn’t want to lose her dignity until she died.

Ethan thought she was repelling him.

What’s her reason to exclude?

Five years ago, wasn’t she brazenly following behind him all day and tried to ask him to marry her? Wasn’t she confessing love to him in front of the school’s teachers and students at the school’s celebration? Wasn’t she ruthlessly set up her best friend in order to get him?

Now, she wanted to draw the line with him.

He suddenly leaned forward and grabbed her arm with one hand, then pulled her forward, the other hand supported himself to keep balance and he sat down, “Don’t pretend to be pitiful in front of me, it is useless. Now I will ask you a question and you need to answer me, the hospital may welcome you more in the future if the answer is not good enough.”
