When Valerie came back and saw that I was still sitting in the corridor in a daze, she could not help asking, "Why are you still sitting here? It's cold in the corridor. Let's go back to the ward."
With that, she stretched out her hand to grab mine and led me into the ward.
In the ward.
Hendrix and Pedro had already ended their conversation. Pedro got up when they saw us walking in, and naturally pulled Valerie into his arms. "Where have you been?" he asked.
"I went to ask the hospital whether we can transfer Hendrix to the hospital in Jarold City so that we can celebrate the New Year's together this year," Valerie said with some joy on her face.
Then, she looked at Hendrix and asked, "Hendrix, you have no problem getting out of bed and walking now, right?"
Hendrix nodded and replied, "Yes, I have no problems!"
Valerie smiled and said, "The doctor said that as long as you can get out of bed and walk around, you can be transferred to another hospital. It's going to be New Year's Eve soon. I'm not familiar with Hanlusia City, so it's not convenient for us to celebrate New Year's here. How about we complete the discharge procedures in a few days and go back to Jarold City to celebrate New Year's?"
Obviously, she was asking Hendrix for his opinion.
Hendrix nodded his head, his facial expression not shifting in the slightest. He nodded slightly and said, "Okay!"
Valerie was elated upon hearing that. She pulled Pedro aside and told him that she wanted to tour Hanlusia City. After all, it was a prosperous city, and many foreign luxury goods could be bought there. Valerie wanted to go around the city and take a look.
Pedro didn't have any objections, so he agreed to her request and went with her.
Only Hendrix and I were left in the ward. There was something on my mind, so I became more silent than before.
After asking about his wound, I sat down on the sofa in a daze.
He looked at me and said in a low, gentle voice, "Arianna, come here!"
