Billionaire ’s Unforgettable First Love novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25 You Should Be Responsible

"I got injured because of saving you. Therefore, you should pay for my medical bills."

He turned his head to look at Gwenyth and said in a domineering tone.

Gwenyth nodded. It cost less than two hundred dollars to get him admitted, have X-rays taken, and then see a doctor to have his broken bone set and get a cast applied.

It was not too expensive...

It was eleven o'clock at night when they left the hospital.

There was still a fine layer of sweat on Edison's forehead. When the doctor set his broken hand, the doctor asked if he wanted anesthesia. He stared at Gwenyth for a moment and calmly said no. Then, in the ensuing procedure, he wore a tense expression and endured the pain by clenching his teeth.

She felt he was saving money for her.

In fact, a small dose of anesthesia only cost about $20 in a regular hospital, so he didn't have to save it for her.

"Does it still hurt?"

She quickly caught up with him, pulled a handkerchief from her backpack, and stood on her toes to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

His head dodged a little to deliberately avoid her.

He deliberately avoided her.

"Is it clean?"

He stared at the handkerchief in her hand with a disgusted look in his eyes.

"Of course."

After a few seconds of silence, he tilted his head back and looked at her coldly, waiting for her to wipe his sweat.

She smiled helplessly and stood on tiptoe again, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"Did you offend anyone?"

Edison asked her suddenly.

She was slightly stunned, "Why do you ask me like that?"

"That black car hit you on purpose. Didn't you see it?"

"I saw it."

"And you stood there like a dumb sculpture? Why didn't you move?"

She was a little speechless.

The car was too close to her then, and she was already freaking out. How could she react?

Besides those debt collectors, the only person she could think of who she had offended was Nancy.

Those debtors wanted her to pay them back as soon as possible, so it was unlikely that they would run her over with their car.

She had some suspicions about Nancy, but she couldn't say it to Edison. After all, that woman was his ex-girlfriend, a woman he was determined to get back and marry.

"What brings you here all of a sudden?"

She naturally changed the subject.

"I was looking for you."

Edison walked ahead in big strides.

She followed him, walking beside him, "You need to see me about something?"

"Hmm."

"What is it?"

"I forgot."

"..."

Gwenyth saw a cab drive by and reached out to stop it, but Edison pulled her hand back and said, "Walk with me."

"Aren't you feeling hot?"

It was a stifling day, and even the breeze that came to them carried a sticky, humid heat.

"No, I don't feel hot."

Edison lied. He let go of her hand and walked on.

"Are you saving money for me?"

She knew she was poor, but she could afford to pay for a cab.

"Miss Lovelace, don't think this is about you."

Edison walked in big, fast steps, and Gwenyth ran a few steps to keep up.

The two of them walked along the street for a while, and Edison was all sweaty, as if he had been in a sauna.

He was sweating, and his shirt was soaked with his sweat and was clinging to his body.

Luckily, her neighborhood was just up ahead.

He held on and walked to his car. He opened the door and got in. The first thing he did was turn on the cold air.

Gwenyth stood by the car door, looked at his left hand in the cast, and said after thinking for a moment, "You can't drive now. I'll call a chauffeur for you."

"Hmm."

Gwenyth called for a chauffeur and was going to go home when the driver arrived, but Edison lowered the window a little and gestured for her to get in.

"I'll go home when your chauffeur arrives."

"You're coming back with me."

Gwenyth shook her head.
