In the past few days, Bella had always thought of the cruel words Charlie had said to her when he left.
When Mrs. McCall was sleeping at night, Bella sat by the window alone and was sleepless the whole night. She just sat there all night.
Mrs. McCall was stunned and felt that something was wrong with Bella.
She wondered if there was something else going behind her back.
"Are you really getting sober? I still have to warn you that you have to pay for the life you take. You can't get Charlie now. If you kill Ms. Livingston in the future, you will be sentenced to death! And I'll kill myself too!"
Reaching out to wipe the tears on her cheeks, Bella walked out and sat on the hospital bench. She gazed quietly at the lake.
She sat for a long time from morning to noon, and to night.
The cold wind blew hard on her face, but she could not feel the chill...
She was thinking about a lot of people and things.
She thought about herself, Charlie and Grace. And she also thought of a lot of things that had happened for the past year or so.
Mrs. McCall was so worried that she called Bella repeatedly, but nobody answered the phone. She was afraid that Bella would do something again, so she asked a nurse to get a wheelchair and wheel her out.
It took a long time for Bella to come back to her senses.
But she could not feel her hands and face. She took a deep breath and blew hot air onto her hands.
Not until now did she realize that it was already dark...
She got up and was about to walk into the hospital when she heard a familiar voice." Miss, please help me keep an eye on my daughter. I am old, and my eyesight is not good. It’s so dark. I can't see her."
