He still remembered that although Rita was not very strong before, she always liked to watch him play basketball in the basketball court. Her infatuated eyes always made his blood boil.
But how did it end up like this?
They still had a good time, didn't they? Why was she going to die?
Jake was unable to accept this.
He held Rita's hand tightly, lowered his head, and shrugged his shoulders. A drop of tears fell on the back of Rita's hand.
Rita was still in a coma.
Jake stayed in the room for a long time before he got up and walked out in a daze.
At the moment when he left the room, Rita opened her eyes and looked in the direction where he had left. There was a trace of complicated emotion in her eyes.
"Mr. Fang, although I don't know what the relationship between you and Ms. Ye is, we can't make any mistakes in our affairs. If Ms. Yes feelings for you is different now, can you afford such a big risk? "
Maximilian did not leave.
To him, the fact that Rita had appeared here and had a close relationship with Jake had exceeded his expectations. In fact, he had even panicked.
It was very difficult to deal with people from the Ye Family. Zion was already a headache. Fortunately, he had a car accident and was unconscious now. There was also Wisdom. He would not dare to show up if Rita refused to let him go. Although Rita was only a girl, as long as she was a member of the Ye family, he was traumatised now.
Jake's emotions had already calmed down. Looking at Maximilian's panicked look, he could not help sneering and saying, "Look at you. You don't have to worry about my own business. I will naturally have a way to keep her from interfering in our affairs. As long as you do what I have asked you to do well, it will be enough. The adoptive father has been dealt with thoroughly. Don't leave any trace behind."
"Yes."
Hearing Jake's words, Maximilian could not say anything more. He could only get up and leave.
Rita didn't get up, nor did she care where she was. If her guess was right, this should be Jake's residence.
Jake...
A person who had been missing for several years had suddenly appeared...
Rita closed her eyes and felt a little bitter in her heart. She couldn't help but think of Mylo's figure.
"That fool might have gone back to look for me again, right?" she thought.
He was always like this. In fact, he was also seriously injured, but he always searched for her to see if she was uncomfortable.
Being loved by such a man was actually a very happy thing. What a pity.
A teardrop fell from the corner of Rita’s eye. It happened to be seen by Jake, who had just entered the room.
"You're awake?"
His voice was not loud, with a hint of tenderness. Just like before, it seemed that they had never been separated over the years. It seemed that they were still classmates, lovers who had not yet confessed their love.
Rita slowly opened her eyes and looked at the man in front of her. She was no longer young and frivolous. Her whole body was full of the charm of an adult, but her obsession with him seemed to have disappeared.
"Where is this place?”
Rita opened her mouth lightly, and her voice was a little hoarse.
Jake quickly poured her a glass of cool drink and handed it over. He said softly, "My place. How do you feel?"
"What other feelings do I have now? I'm just waiting for death."
Rita laughed in a self-mocking manner. After that, she drank the water. Her desolate and gray gaze made Jake feel a burst of pain in his heart.
