Chapter 589 The Punchbag
Looking at Violet's text, Ethan raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows. He made a long sigh and made a call to look for a chauffeur.
About half an hour later, the chauffeur knocked on the car window from the outside, " Are you, Mr. Bond?"
Ethan pushed the door and got out of the car, "Yeah."
The chauffeur asked, "Where are you going?"
Ethan opened the car's door to the rear seat and got into the car. He said in a low voice, "Hospital."
When Ethan arrived at the hospital, Colin had just fallen asleep.
After Ethan paid the chauffeur, he took the elevator upstairs.
A few minutes later, Ethan appeared in the ward.
Colin was sleeping and he was in a daze. Suddenly, he felt that someone was watching him at the bedside.
At first, Colin thought it was an illusion. When he heard the sound of the chair moving next to his bed, he raised his eyebrows and opened his eyes.
In the dark room, they looked at each other with moonlight shedding through the window.
Colin twitched the corners of his mouth and said in a deep voice, "Is the business of the law firm being bad recently? That's why you have to get a part-time job?"
Ethan sat down and took out a cigarette from his pocket. He bit it with his mouth but didn't light it, "Huh?"
Colin explained, "Working for the Lord of Hell and helping to conjure souls at night, right?"
Ethan took the cigarette off the corner of his mouth and kicked Colin's bed, "Get up and chat with me."
Colin lay still without moving and said, "I am a patient and I need to rest."
Ethan pinched the cigarette with his fingers. Then, he crushed it and the shredded tobacco was scattered on the ground.
After a moment of silence in the ward, Ethan said abruptly, "I kissed Violet just now."
When Ethan finished his words, the lights in the ward suddenly turned on.
Then, Abbot's voice was heard and he sounded nosy, "When was it? Just now?"
Ethan was speechless.
Colin chuckled, got up with one of his hands supported on the bed, and sat by the head of the bed, "If you are going to talk about this topic now, I'm pretty sure I won't be dozing off."
Ethan glanced at Colin and turned to look at Abbot, who was sitting on another bed in the corner.
Abbot understood what Ethan was trying to ask. He took the initiative to explain, "I'm worried about Colin. So, I stay to take care of him at night."
