Chapter 95 What's wrong with your injury
After saying this, Adrian walked calmly towards the upstairs of the hospital.
Upon hearing Vivian's words and preparing to go downstairs to find assistant Brent, Julia saw Adrian coming back and stopped. "Mr. Blackwood, Vivian..."
However, before she could finish her words, Adrian walked past without looking at them.
At this moment, Adrian's mood was extremely bad because of his argument with Eva, and his face was also gloomy.
Several girls could clearly feel the chill emanating from him, and stood frozen in place, not daring to approach him or say anything.
But Adrian suddenly seemed to sense something, paused for a moment, and turned his head to look at the group. "Why are you still here?"
Julia and everyone stood together, but Julia suddenly felt an icy gaze on top of her head. When she raised her head, she met Adrian's dangerous and fierce gaze, which startled her and she didn't know how to explain. "Adrian!"
Just at that moment, Vivian's voice came from not far away.
Everyone looked towards the voice and saw Vivian running over barefoot, her face anxious.
Although the distance was not close, the blood seeping through the bandage on her forehead still looked shocking on her pale face.
"Vivian, why did you come down? The doctor said you can't move."
Vivian's other sisters rushed forward when they saw her, but Julia couldn't move as if she was paralyzed.
Adrian's gaze was cold and indifferent, and it wasn't until Vivian ran up to him that he saw the blood on her forehead and his expression softened slightly.
"Why did you come down?"
Vivian glanced at Julia and gave her a look, then said in a somewhat flustered tone, "While I was upstairs just now, it seemed like there was conflict with assistant Brent. I heard that assistant Brent got angry and left, so I wanted to come down and take a look, and also apologize to him on behalf of everyone."
After receiving her look, Julia quickly left.
Vivian sighed and said, "Adrian, I'm sorry. You left assistant Brent here to help me, and my friends treated him like this. It's really my fault." Adrian silently looked at her without saying a word.
Adrian was naturally cold in temperament, and when he looked at you silently without speaking, it made you feel like you were in an icy cave.
Just like now, as Vivian apologized and explained, Adrian remained silent, looking at her like he saw through all her pretenses.
How could that be?
Could it be that Eva said something false to him?
Thinking of this, tears welled up in Vivian's eyes, her long and curly eyelashes blinked, and tears rolled down her cheeks. She gently pulled at Adrian's clothes, pitifully saying, "Adrian, you're not speaking, are you mad at me? Today, in the private room..."
"I didn't stop you in time and let you down, right?"
"But Adrian, it wasn't that I didn't want to stop her, I just didn't expect Julia to say those things. I'm really sorry, please don't be angry with me, okay?"
Adrian glanced at her tightly holding his fingers, then looked at Vivian, who was crying with a pitiful and tearful appearance. She had been crying, which should have made him feel sorry for her, but for some reason, another face appeared in Adrian's mind.
That face had completely different features from the person in front of him, delicate and three-dimensional, especially those cold eyes. When she wanted to cry, her tears almost filled her entire eye sockets, but not a drop fell. Finally, her eyes turned red from suppressing the tears, and then she would stubbornly turn her back, hiding all the tears from him.
Adrian suddenly realized something. He still remembered when she used to cry loudly in front of him, with tears and snot running down her face. There were even times when she would lightly pull his clothing, looking pitifully at him, sniffing her nose, with red eyes.
When did it start? She no longer shed tears in front of him and hid all of her tears. Adrian finally understood why he always felt lonely in his heart because Eva and him now had a deep barrier between them. She no longer saw him as someone she could share any emotions with.
"Adrian...are you really angry with me?" Vivian's gentle voice brought him back to reality.
Adrian regained his senses and looked at Vivian, who had tears streaming down her face, he pursed his lips and asked, "What happened tonight?"
Hearing this, Vivian was taken aback.
"What?" Adrian's gaze moved up slightly, his tone short, "Your injury, what happened?" Her injury?
Vivian was a bit surprised at why Adrian suddenly brought up this question. Didn't her friends tell him that it was Eva who pushed her? Vivian realized that she couldn't guess Adrian's thoughts now.
However, since he came back this time, his emotions seemed to be different, and Vivian had to maintain her kind image, so she could only tentatively speak, "Don't blame Eva for what happened tonight. Although it may leave a scar in the future, I can only accept it myself. If I had been more stable tonight, I wouldn't have fallen."
Adrian lowered his eyes and looked at her with a heavy expression. For some reason, Vivian felt a little scared being stared at by that kind of gaze. "Adrian?"
"So, what you mean is she pushed you, right?"
Vivian: "..."
Perhaps she didn't expect Adrian to dig into the root of the matter like this, so she didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Her friend stepped forward and answered on her behalf, "Mr. Blackwood, it was Eva who pushed her, otherwise Vivian wouldn't have gotten hurt so badly."
Upon hearing this, Adrian's expression became even colder.
He squinted his eyes and dangerously looked at that person.
"Did you see it happen?"
The girl was immediately silenced by his icy gaze. "I..."
Adrian sneered, "With your own eyes?"
The girl glanced at Vivian and dared not speak further.
What "with your own eyes"? The situation was so chaotic at the time, no one actually saw anything. She was just standing on Vivian's side.
Adrian's attitude made everyone afraid to speak.
Even Vivian was dumbfounded. She originally thought that Adrian would stand by her in this matter, but she didn't expect him to be so serious.
Was he doubting her, or did he simply not want Eva to suffer?
Thinking of this, Vivian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and gently bit her lower lip, speaking softly, "Adrian, don't blame Eva. It's all my fault. I didn't stand properly and was careless." Upon hearing this, Adrian's gaze finally returned to her. The corners of his straight lips tightened again and he nodded.
"If you know you were careless, then be more careful next time."
