Chapter 21 Think about it
Debby White eventually passed out, and when she woke up again, she felt her nostrils lingering with the pungent smell of disinfectant.
She couldn’t help but frown, and then slowly opened her eyes.
The first thing that came into view was a blinding white, followed by the sound of people talking outside.
Their voices were a little low, intermittent into Debby White’s ears, she did not hear too clearly, but the voice sounded very familiar …
Debby White was still a little uncomfortable and dizzy, and she listened for a while without hearing who was talking until the door to the hospital room was pushed open.
“You’re awake.” Cecilia Glendon’s face crashed into Debby White’s eyes, along with the surprised look on her face, “How are you, feeling better?”
“Cecilia ?” Debby White looked at her with some surprise, “I’m not dreaming …”
As soon as she made a sound she felt the pain between her throat seem to have lessened.
“I’m afraid not.” Cecilia Glendon smiled softly and walked over to her, “We haven’t been here long either.”
“What time is it?” Debby White glanced outside, only to find that it was already dark outside.
“It’s eight o’clock.” Cecilia Glendon said, “I heard Montague Scott say you slept a long time.”
“Some fever …” Debby White helplessly raised his hand to his forehead, helplessly smiled, “Sorry about that … ”
“What are you apologizing to me for?” Cecilia Glendon sat down on the chair and held the quilt towards her again, “I went to see my aunt there, she is fine, just a little worried about you, she wanted to come to see you but I stopped her, I will go over to see you when you are better.”
“Thanks.” Debby White smiled slightly, and after she finished, she let out another soft sigh, “It’s a good thing you’re here, otherwise … I wouldn’t really know what to do with this mess.”
There was no name or relationship between her and Montague Scott, and there was no way she was going to ask Montague Scott to handle her own family’s business, so it was a good thing Cecilia Glendon was here.
Hearing this from Debby White, Cecilia Glendon hesitated and asked, “Still not sure with Montague Scott?”
Debby White’s expression dimmed slightly: “It’s impossible for me to be with him.”
Even after all that, she still felt she had something going with Montague Scott.
I thought he was good and suitable to be together in the car before, but now that I’m sober, I just think I was confused by the fever at that time to think that way.
“Think about it again.” Cecilia Glendon thought of her previous appearance when she first met Montague Scott, her heart ached slightly, Montague Scott, really loved Debby White, right?
It’s just that Debby White has now brought Montague Scott directly back to his home, and is indirectly telling him that his family is on this condition, and they Scott simply can’t talk about the right family.
She just wants Montague Scott to die.
“There’s nothing to think about.” Cecilia Glendon licked her dry lips, “I only have to look at you to see what I’ll be afterwards.”
“We’re not the same, the two of us.” Cecilia Glendon got up and went to pour her hot water, then helped her up from the bed and leaned her properly against it before handing her the cup, “The Benson’s are not the same as Scott, you can’t generalize.”
“Even if it wasn’t the same, they couldn’t care less about who I am at all, could they?” Debby White sips her water, and it takes a while before her throat slips up and down, sliding the water down, “I’ve been alone for so many years, it’s fine the way it is now.”
At least for now … seems to be pretty good, right?
Cecilia Glendon didn’t persuade her any further.
The reason the two of them have become such good friends is perhaps because both of them have the same temperament in some ways.
So Cecilia Glendon can understand the decision that Debby White is making at this moment.
“Rest a little longer.” Cecilia Glendon said, “Montague Scott went to see his aunt and didn’t come back that soon.”
Debby White was silent for another moment before forcing herself to raise a smile, “Enough about me, let’s talk about you.”
“I’m fine.” This time, Cecilia Glendon didn’t avoid any questions, but smiled softly, her smile looked very relaxed.
“I hope so.” With best wishes from Debby White.
There is no empathy in this world, in Cecilia Glendon and Abbott Benson and what she was feeling before the reconciliation, even if Debby White live with her every day, she can not feel.
So Debby White is no doubt one of the happiest people to see a relaxed smile on Cecilia Glendon’s face right now, too.
…
Cecilia Glendon stayed with Debby White in the hospital room to talk until Debby White fell asleep again, then Cecilia Glendon got up and gently left the room.
She opened the door and walked out, gently closing it behind her before turning around to see Abbott Benson sitting a short distance away, watching her quietly, his eyes quiet and gentle.
The corner of Cecilia Glendon’s mouth curled up at the sight of him and she walked towards him, “When did you get here?”
He said he had something to explain to the company, so Cecilia Glendon told him to go directly to the hospital and get a room nearby, and he would go there when he was done.
“Just arrived.” Abbott Benson stood up, he had changed his clothes, not formal wear, just the usual casual attire he wore, making his whole person look years younger, causing many of the young nurses in the hospital to stare at him.
“Debby White is asleep, so I’ll go talk to Montague Scott and leave.” Cecilia Glendon offered to take his hand, smiling softly.
“Good.” Abbott Benson said, “Get hungry, go eat.”
“Yes a little hungry …” Cecilia Glendon touched her stomach.
Debby White is still in a fever, mouth eating anything tasteless, so just ate a little fruit and went back to sleep, Cecilia Glendon naturally also did not eat much, now long hungry.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
They went downstairs to find Montague Scott just as he was coming out of Debby White’s mother’s hospital room.
“Leaving?” Montague Scott looked up to see the two men walking head-on.
“Debby White is asleep, and we’re going to go get some dinner, so let’s go together.” Cecilia Glendon said.
“I’m not going.” Montague Scott shook his head, “She’s not sleeping very soundly, I’ll go up and stay with her.”
He is good to Debby White so Cecilia Glendon so a bystander look at the heart feel soft, Debby White also do not know how can be cruel not to accept the ah.
Cecilia Glendon sighed quietly in the back of her mind, then said, “Then we’ll ask the restaurant waiter to bring it to you later, you need to eat some too.”
Cecilia Glendon wanted to say a few words to Montague Scott, but was dragged away by Abbott Benson without saying anything.
“Pull me for what.” Walking farther away Cecilia Glendon only squeezed his palm and grunted.
“Don’t eat if you keep talking.” Abbott Benson glanced at her.
“You’re not jealous here, are you?” Cecilia Glendon stared at him and suddenly laughed, “You’re jealous of Montague Scott too?”
“Who said I was jealous.” Abbott Benson didn’t even look at her, his face arrogant, “Am I guilty of being jealous with him?”
