7.THE THINGS REMAINED, BUT THE PEOPLE HAVE CHANGED.

Cate took longer than Jael Sweeny to treat her wound. Although Jael Sweeny's wound looked deep and scary,the blade was sharp and did not damage any nerve. After stitching and bandaging he was fine.

However, Cate's wound was cut by a fan blade covered in rust,and she hid in dusty iron box for half a day. It took her a long time just to pick out the broken stones and iron pieces from the wound. The process was also very painful.

Jael Sweeny stood outside the room,listening to Cate rhythmic and painful cries for a fully twenty minutes. His face became darker as time passed. Finally, in the twenty-first minute ,he couldn't help but open the door and walk in.

Cate looked at him with teary eyes and spoke with a rare soft aggrevied tone,"Sweeny, it hurts so much. "

Her voice was gentle, and Jael Sweeny heart also ached. He seemed to be back in college. At that time,he hadn't been with Cate yet, but he had heard from his friends that there was a famous beauty in the school whose name was taken from Kelly Sowel's"Untitled."

"Cate's fifty strings are inexplicably melancholy, one string, one pillar, thinking of the splendid years. "

Once ,he was playing basketball with his friends on the court when a girl suddenly popped up from behind the backboard. He couldn't stop his strength, and the ball hit the girl¹s face directly. He took the girl to the infirmary. The girl¹s injury was not serious, just a little skin was broken. At that time, she sat on the edge of infirmary bed,looked up at him with her eyes, and said in a soft voice,"It hurts so much. "

Her tone was like a kitten's paw,gently scratching his heart. When the school doctor made a record after applying the medicine,he heard the girl carefully report her name.

Cate.

She was Cate.

The sunlight shone through the wind of the department and fell on Cate face, forming a distinct shadow that almost overlapped with the scene of their first encounter . But things had already changed.

The girl from years ago was forever frozen in the old and yellowed film,but her feelings for her had been ingrained in her bones and carver into her heart. Even just thinking about it would bring a suffocating pain.

Even though he knew how she had deceived and betrayed him,he couldn't resist being attracted to her.

A numb pain spread across Jael Sweeny's chest. He walked over in silence, not saying a word, just raising his hand and placing it on her shoulder.

She looked up at Jael Sweeny face,but saw that his expression was obscure and difficult to understand.

The hand resting on her shoulder exerted a little, and the scorching temperature almost burned into her heart through her clothes and skin.

It was not an illusion. Cate blinked her eyes, and it seemed that the wound on her body was not so painful anymore.

"What's wrong, did the young couple have a fight?" The doctor continued to work with his hands and gossiped,"Hey,young couple fight and make up,there are no grudges overnight."

Cate bitterly raised the corners of her mouth. Now that she was sitting here with a purpose, she no longer had the qualifications to stand with Jael Sweeny.

And Jael Sweeny heart, he had long hated her .

When they walked out of the hospital, It was already dark.

Both of them were injured and couldn't drive themselves.

Cate sighed softly and nudged Jael Sweeny arm,"Hey,where's Michael? Call him to come pick you up and give me a ride too."

Michael?

Jael Sweeny was taken back before realizing that the woman was referring to Lione.

He couldn't help but feel a little amused. Lione had been sent to investigate something and wouldn't be able to make it at this hour.

"Let's take a taxi, "Jael Sweeny said,his cold gaze sweeping over Cate.

The hospital was located in the city center, so it was easy to find a taxi.

Cate used her uninjured hand to open the door and lifted her delicate chi,Get in,Young Master Jael. "

The drive saw them through the rear view mirror and couldn't help but chuckle." You two lovebirds are quite a pair. One on the left and one on the right, like a pair of mandarin ducks."

Cate rolled her eyes and didn't bother to respond.

But it was true, Jael Sweeny and injured his right hand,while she had injured her left arm. Cate looked at them for while and found it quite amusing.

She nudged Jael Sweeny with elbow and whispered, Young Master, Jael if we're like this in our next life, we might as well live together. I'll feed you and you'll feed me. Hahaha."

Jael Sweeny stared at her intently, and the taxi had already started moving. The neon lights of the street lamps cast a mottled light and shadow on his face.

His gaze was deep and seemed to be filled with inexplicable emotions. Cate felt a little uneasy under his gaze and swallowed her saliva, moving to the side.

"I was just joking, "she said.

The car fell silent, and it seemed like a long time had passed. Cate leaned against the window, staring at her reflection in the glass.

Cate didn't need Jael Sweeny to remind her that she was only back to conceive another child to save Greg. As long as she succeeded in getting pregnant, she and Jael Sweeny would go their separate and never seen each other again.

After all,in Jael Sweeny's eyes, she was just a complete fraud. She was being delusional for thinking otherwise just because he had helped her once . But when she thought about this ending, a dull pain spread through her chest, making her almost cry. Cate laughed at herself bitterly.

Back in her apartment, Cate turned on the light with a snap. Her luggage was still lying on the floor, unpacked. She walked over it with ease and grabbed a nightgown. "I'll take a shower first. Mr.Jael, please make yourself at home, "she said, about to leave, but her wrist was caught by Jael Sweeny cold voice. "I can't move. Stay and help me. "

Who was the one who told Robin that it was just a minor injury and didn't need any care? Cate remained silent for a long time, and then mechanically lifted her arm."Mr.Jael, am injured too."

"Because of you,"Jael Sweeny's voice was heavy ,emphasizing the last three words. After two seconds of eye contact, Cate gave in and threw the nightgown on the sofa, asking, "How would Mr.Jael like me to take care of his life-saving benefactor?"

"I'm hungry, "Jael Sweeny loosened his tie with one hand and glanced at Cate hand." Order takeout, "he said.

Cate was surprised. "You can still order takeout?"

When they were together before, Jael Sweeny never ordered takeout. Cate usually cooked, and occasionally, when they were both feeling lazy, they would go out to eat.

But Cate didn't know that after she left, Jael Sweeny moved back in and the whole house was empty. Even the servants were dismissed, leaving him with a suffocating sense of emptiness that almost drove him crazy.

To escape his suffocating feeling ,Jael Sweeny chose to numb himself with work. Sometimes he would forget to eat because he was working late.

"Habits can change, "Jael Sweeny said in a cold tone,his icy gaze falling on Cate's face. "I can change too."

Cate back stiffened slightly. After a while, she forced a smile, her fingers tightening around her phone as she said,"You're right. "
