"No, I..." Kimberly still wanted to say something, but Benedict reached out to rub her head and said, "Well, let's talk about it next time. Valeria, go ahead and check me out of the hospital, then let's pack up and leave."
Kimberly knew he did this for her. If he didn't leave the hospital, she wouldn't leave even if he asked her to. This was the only way he could force her to leave.
"Benedict... You've gone to such lengths for me, why are you doing this?" She thought.
Somehow, Kimberly began to feel sorry for him. She felt like she was a villain. She didn't need Benedict to do this for her at all. Besides, they haven't known each other for a long time. Even if he liked her... he shouldn't have done this.
Valeria completed the discharge procedures for both of them. During the process, the doctor had been trying to persuade them, "Although it seems like there is nothing serious now, I still advise you to stay longer for additional checks. Anyway, there are only a few days left so you can wait, right?"
In the end, they wouldn't give in. The doctor could only leave them some advice and let them go.
Kimberly left the hospital with them. Benedict had a car and when Valeria was about to ask her to get in the car, Benedict suddenly stopped her, "She's going to another place, Valeria." Upon hearing this, Valeria was stunned. "But... aren't we taking Miss Shell with us?"
Benedict stayed silent with a pale face. Kimberly blinked her eyes in embarrassment. She bit her lips and said, "It's okay, I have to go somewhere else. You guys just go ahead."
Valeria couldn't understand. Benedict obviously liked Kimberly, but why didn't he take the
opportunity to take her with him now? He was leaving her in front of the hospital all by herself. Wouldn't that be a bad move if he wanted to court Kimberly?
"Let's go," Benedict asked Valeria to get in the car. The firmness in his eyes showed his
insistence. Valeria knew that she had no choice but to get into the car.
Looking at the door closing, Kimberly waved to them.
She had nothing to be upset about because she knew the reason behind Benedict's actions. She was especially grateful to him because of it.
After the car drove away, Kimberly stared into the distance. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a girl's voice.
"Kimberly," the voice called out.
The familiar sweet voice made Kimberly pause for a moment. Then, she turned and saw Vera standing on the opposite side of the street. She stood there with a bag on her back, waving vigorously at her. She smiled when Kimberly looked over.
"I'm here!" Vera yelled. Kimberly was stunned, staring at Vera on the other side of the street.
No wonder...
No wonder Benedict could walk so casually. It turned out... he had already prepared everything for her. Her phone was gone and she hadn't contacted anyone in the past two days. Vera couldn't have known about what happened. However, she was here now which meant that Benedict had arranged for her to meet Kimberly here.
"I didn't expect... he had planned out everything," Kimberly thought to herself.
Kimberly's eyes went red. She wanted to walk over, but Vera suddenly shouted at her, "Stay there and don't move. I'm coming."
Vera then walked all the way up to Kimberly. She ran to Kimberly and stuffed a bag into her hands.
"Here, this is yours," she said.
Kimberly took it and had a look, only to find that it was her own bag.
