When I came to Andrea's ward, she had fallen asleep. There was also a middle-aged woman in the ward, who was the caretaker that Hendrix hired. When she saw me, she simply greeted me. It indicated that Hendrix asked her to stay here and take care of Andrea. In that case, I didn't need to stay here any longer.
I went out of the hospital and directly took a taxi back to the villa.
It was early morning when I returned to the villa after such a busy night. Probably because I was pregnant, I was a little sleepy that I went straight to bed when I returned to the bedroom.
In a daze, I was awakened by the strong smell of cigarettes. I vaguely saw the dark shadow was sitting by the bed, which startled me. I woke up completely and found it was Hendrix.
No one knew when he had returned. The bedroom was filled with thick smoke, and the doors and windows had all been shut. Hendrix's elongated fingers were still holding a cigarette that was still burning. I didn't know how many cigarettes he had smoked. But looking at the situation, there should be quite a few.
"You're back," I said. I sat up straight and looked up at him.
He never smoked, but now that he smoked so much in the bedroom, something must have happened.
He did not speak but only looked at me with his gloomy eyes. His eyes were deep and bottomless, and I could not comprehend his emotion at all. The smell of smoke in the room was so strong that I couldn't breathe, so I lifted the quilt and got out of bed to open the window.
Hendrix sat on the sofa. And when I passed by him, he suddenly reached his hand out and pulled me into his arms. Then he held me tightly with his hands, and his strength was so strong that I was afraid.
"Hendrix!" Although I didn't know why he suddenly acted like this, I really didn't like him with the smell of smoke. I struggled quite sometimes, but he didn't let me go.
