Beanie climbed onto the bed on his own, covered himself with his small quilt and soon fell asleep.
Looking at the child's sweet face, Minerva's still couldn't get her heart to calm down.
At such a time, she should go to sleep too.
However, her mind was still in a mess. Her mind was filled with Maddox's figure in the hospital alone.
Minerva Hanover!
Wake up a little!
He was Maddox Yardley! Not a kid!
"He doesn't need you to take care of him at all. If you keep thinking about him like this, you're just asking for humiliation. You're not his babysitter. Why are you so worried about him?" She thought to herself.
After Minerva was done with her inner monologue, she went back to her bed and laid down.
She closed her eyes, laid in a daze for a while and then opened her eyes again.
Time was passing by quietly. It was almost eleven o'clock.
In the end, Minerva couldn't resist the torture in her heart. She got up quietly and grabbed her phone to take a look, only to find that Maddox had sent her several Facebook messages.
"Didn't you say that you'll come as soon as you're free? If you're busy now, then I'll just wait."
This message was sent when she had put down her phone.
Then half an hour later, he had sent another text.
"Are you still not free?"
After there was no response, the man sent another message.
"I've come to the entrance of the hospital to wait for you. Once you're free and you've arrived, you would be able to see me."
That was sent at nine o'clock.
At 9:30pm: "I've waited for half an hour. Woman, are you so cruel to let me continue waiting?"
10pm: "I'm hungry."
10:30pm: "I'm a little cold." 11 pm: "Aren't you coming yet? There's no one else at the entrance already."
Not long after this message was sent, Minerva's expression changed. The time he sent the message was just when she opened his messages. D*mn it.
Could Maddox still be waiting for her at the entrance? Could he have starved the whole night?
She thought about how he had been waiting for her at the hospital entrance for a few hours with the wound on his back. Minerva could not care less at that point in time. She felt like she was a sinner. She could not care about anything else. She grabbed a coat and headed out.
In the middle of the night, Minerva rushed to the front of the neighborhood and called for a cab, then went straight to the hospital.
Her house was about 20 minutes away from the hospital. Looking at the last text he sent, Minerva felt extremely anxious.
That man was no longer very young, but why was he as rash as a teenager when he did things?
Minerva scolded him in her heart hundreds of times and then urged the driver, "Sir, please hurry up. My friend is still waiting for me."
The driver had been driving slowly but when he heard her request, he nodded and said, "Okay, I can be faster, but safety is more important."
"Thank you."
Minerva looked down at her phone, but Maddox didn't send her any messages.
She didn't know whether he had gone back or not.
Twenty minutes later, Minerva finally arrived at the entrance of the hospital. After Minerva paid the fare, she pushed open the door and got out of the car. She ran over quickly, but she did not see Maddox at the hospital entrance.
Had he gone back?
Minerva had run too fast, so she was panting heavily.
