Vanessa did not get much sleep, but she was not sleepy at all. She was tossing and turning on the bed but still could not fall asleep. Hence, she got up and went to the gym room for a run.
Vanessa loved working out, so she would always find time throughout the week to work out. Running was her usual go to exercise routine. Like she usually did, she started running on the treadmill but halfway through it, she felt that something was wrong with her body. In the next second, her vision became blurry as she dropped to the ground.
Before falling down, a face flashed across Vanessa's mind. He was the only one who could save her. However, he was so angry at her the night before, so she guessed that he would not appear in this house for the next few days.
By the time he showed up, she was probably a rotten dead body already.
Not knowing how much time had passed, Vanessa blinked her eyes and woke up from unconsciousness.
She opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Julien's indifferent but extremely handsome face. Alas, this man was really her kryptonite. She was already dead, but he was still the first thing she saw the moment she opened her eyes.
Vanessa was staring at him, and Julien was looking at her too. No matter where they were, this man would still be this cold. He was even colder than the icebergs in the Arctic. He did not look cute at all.
Seeing that Vanessa was awake and staring at him, Julien turned his head away and did not look at her anymore.
Vanessa pouted her lips and said, "Alas, I'm already dead. Can't you be a little gentler to me?"
The corner of Julien's mouth twitched, but he was still ignoring her.
Vanessa reached out her hand and poked him. "Are you real or is it just my imagination?"
However, his hand felt real. It didn't feel like she was hallucinating.
If that was the case, did it mean that someone had saved her?
Vanessa looked around and realized that she was in a hospital ward. She quickly reached out her hand and pinched her thigh. She could feel the pain, which proved that she was still alive. Therefore, Julien was the one who saved her, "Thanks!"
Vanessa felt that she should thank him. Otherwise, he probably would not save her the next time. This man had always been a petty person, so she must not upset him.
Now that Vanessa had thanked him, not only did Julien not respond to her, he stood up and left.
Vanessa's heart was filled with disappointment. She was still lying on the hospital bed. Couldn't he stay for a little longer?
Even if he ignored her and put on a cold face, as long as he was here, she would still be better.
Alas...
Vanessa sighed quietly and quickly concealed her dejection. Since Julien had left, Vanessa thought that she could sleep for a little while longer.
Julien had just left when Joel Skylar came into the ward. He said, "Vanessa, are you feeling much better now?"
Vanessa nodded and smiled. "Yeah, I'm feeling much better now. Thanks, Joel."
Joel handed an envelope to Vanessa and said, "This is what Mr. Kyle asked me to give you. You should take a look at it first. If there's anything you would like to add on, feel free to let me know."
Vanessa was puzzled. "What is this?"
Joel said, "You should take a look at it first."
