Chapter 802
Cicely was glaring at Seth her fists clenched at her ride Her eyes lingered on the hand that Seth had just held
His fingers were long and sleek, like those of a rich and prrogant young master His hands looked noble and clean
Something seemed to be settling in her eyes, the discomfort in her palms and knees becoming clearer in this moment
Seth watched her quietly his gaze as cold as winter au
“I follow you
Seths lips curled up into a mocking smile
Cicely tilted her head back slightly looking up at his taller figure. Her lips were a bet pale
His assistant Samuel hung up the phone and walked over to Seth, whispering
“Mr. Diaz, Danielle is still waiting for you in the hospital room”
Samuels words felt like a slap in the face to Cicely Loud and clear
Her eyes flinched slightly her clenched fists tightened even more
Did it hurt Yes, it hurt Everything hurt Her hand hurt, her legs hurt, her face hurt, And something else seemed to hurt even more.
The mocking glint in Seths eyes fell like thorny vines tightly coiling around her heart, causing an excruciating pain that made it hard to breathe. A few seconds later, she lifted her pale lips into a wide smile.
“Im sorry, Mr. Diaz, I misunderstood
She finished speaking and turned to leave with a smile. Just as she was about to walk away a sharp pain in her knee made her body sway Samuel had already turned to follow Seth towards the hospital. Seeing Cicely almost fall, he instinctively reached out to steady her.
Cicely regained her balance and gave Samuel a pale smile, saying “Thanks.”
Looking at Cicely s pale face, he shook his head, “You should go and see a doctor.
Cicely smiled, “No need I’m tough as nails.”
“Am I paying you to play hero?”
Seths voice was low and cold, devoid of any warmth Samuel’s body tensed, and he quickly walked to Seth’s side, his expression respectful and tinged with a hint of apology. “I’m sorry. Mr. Diaz”
“Your salary will be deducted this month!”
“… Yes, sir.”
Seth’s eyes darted within his sockets as he looked through the glass door, observing Cicely standing behind him with blood–stained hands and soaked pants. His hands, tucked into his suit pockets, clenched tightly. Samuel, standing beside him, quickly noticed the cold aura radiating from him and hurriedly pushed open the glass door in front of them.
The figure in the glass door disappeared instantly. Seth’s gaze became colder, he gave Samuel a cold glance, then walked towards the hospital lobby.
“Find out why she came to the hospital.”
Samuel was taken aback, struggling to figure out who was the “she‘ Mr. Diaz was talking about?
He thought for a while and then it clicked.
Wasnt it the person just now?
“Yes, sir”
In the hospital room, Danielle was seated on the bed. Seeing Seth walk in, surprise flashed in her eyes.
“Seth, you’re here.
His assistant promptly chose to leave the room.
Seth stood by the bed, his figure tall and straight, his demeanor deep and noble. His handsome face rarely showed much emotion
His eyes swept over her, then he asked indifferently.
“Are you feeling better?”
Danielle smiled sweetly, with a hint of apology in her eyes, “Just a common cold. It’s not a big issue for most people, but I had to be hospitalized.. My body, even I have to admit, it’s so troublesome and delicate…
Delicate….
Speaking of delicate, who in the world could compare to Cicely?
Danielle was hospitalized for a cold. When Cicely fell ill, she not only refused to go to the hospital, she wouldn’t even take medicine, let alone let anyone treat her.
She wasn’t just delicate; she was also troublesome.
“It’s not a hassle.”
Compared to Cicely Danielle seemed to be more of a relief.
Hearing Seth say this, Danielle’s smile brightened.
“Thankfully, the filming is already over. Otherwise, I would have delayed the crew’s progress and upset the director.”
Seth’s handsome face broke into a charming smile, his eyes glinting with pride and arrogance.
“Tell me, who dares to bully you?”
Danielle was in a good mood, “No one’s bullying me, I just feel it’s not right to delay the whole crew’s progress.”
Seth didn’t say anything more, and the room fell silent.
Finally Danielle broke the silence, “Seth, aren’t you going to sit down?”
From the moment he entered, Seth had been standing, seemingly not planning to stay for long.
Seth glanced at his watch, then said indifferently. “No, I have something to deal with in a bit.”
Hearing this, Danielle’s smile faded a bit, “I thought you had finished your work?”
Seth maintained a cold expression as he glanced at her indifferently
Danielle felt a chill in her heart and bit her lip, a sense of grievance adding to her elegant beauty.
“I just wanted you to stay with me a little longer. We haven’t seen each other in so long, and we’ll have to start filming soon…”
Seth looked at her his lips tightly shut
At that moment, the door to the ward was knocked, and Samuel walked in, his face not looking too good.
Seths brows furrowed as he looked down at Danielle, “You have a good rest”
Then he turned and left the room
At the end of the quiet hallway Samuel’s face was unusually serious.
“What happened?”
Samuel hesitated for a moment. Then said
“Cicely came here for a skin check, and she also had a blood test The hospital insisted on confidentiality.”
“I need to know the results” Seth cut him off coldly
“Cicely had an AIDS test”
Seth abruptly looked up at Samuel
“What did you say?”
His voice was cold and terrifying Samuel felt a chill run down his spine, but he managed to repeat,
“She had an AIDS test
He had only heard of it before, never imagining that this disease could possibly affect someone close to him. For this kind of woman who Hved only for money, he didn’t know whether to pity her or despise her now
She actually ditched her moral compass for money?
For a moment. Seth didnt react Then he asked. “What about the test results?
“I’ll come out in three days”
“Go dig up some dirt! Find out what the hell happened to her these past few days!”
A storm of indifference seemed to envelop Seth, emanating from his body as if it could destroy everything in its path
