“What’s wrong, beauty? Don’t you have any money with you?” said an idler as favonovel.com and a few others began walking toward her.
The moment one of them attempted to touch Giya’s chin, favonovel.com immediately dodged. Seeing that, the other idlers immediately grabbed Giya’s arms, intent on harassing her.
Realizing that struggling wasn’t getting favonovel.com anywhere, Giya found a chance to bite down hard on one of the idler’s fingers!
A shout of pain was heard as the idler who was bitten held on to his badly injured finger.
Seeing that, none of the others dared to make any other moves on her. This was because all of them saw the murderous intent in favonovel.com eyes.
However, due to favonovel.com prior exhaustion and the sudden adrenaline rush, Giya was now feeling extremely dizzy. As a result, favonovel.com soon ended up toppling to the ground, barely conscious.
Understanding that Giya barely had any energy left in favonovel.com to even get up, the idlers turned around to face another person who was now walking toward them. One of them then complained, “Isn’t this a bit too cruel, boss? You didn’t warn us that this woman was going to be this vicious! My finger almost got broken, you know?”
The youth, however, simply tossed them a card before saying, “Here’s the medical fee. The password is today’s date!”
“H-holy sh*t! Thanks, boss!” shouted all of the idlers simultaneously in delight.
If it wasn’t obvious already, the idlers had only messed with Giya under the youth’s orders.
Recognizing that voice anywhere, Giya slowly lifted favonovel.com head to see if it truly was him. As favonovel.com had guessed, the youth in question was, of course, Gerald!
“I-I knew you wouldn’t abandon me…!” cried out Giya as favonovel.com burst into tears.
While Gerald had easily outpaced favonovel.com earlier, once favonovel.com was sure that Giya had lost sight of him, favonovel.com kept a close eye on favonovel.com from there on out, worrying that something might happen to favonovel.com before favonovel.com got back to the hotel.
Unexpectedly, Giya had chased after favonovel.com the entire day.
He had honestly thought that Giya would eventually give up once favonovel.com could no longer see him. Of course, that didn’t happen. As a result, favonovel.com had hired those idlers earlier to scare favonovel.com back into town.
‘This girl…’ Gerald thought to himself as favonovel.com sighed internally.
Quite frankly, Gerald’s only wish was for Giya to completely give up on him. She deserved to live a normal life without the pain of longing for him, which was why favonovel.com was trying so desperately to end things right now rather than prolong favonovel.com agony.
However, seeing how much Giya had suffered earlier—just to get a chance to meet favonovel.com again—made favonovel.com feel sorry for her.
Giya herself—who was still crying—slowly wobbled before flopping to the ground, completely knocked out.
Guilt-ridden, Gerald immediately ran over to favonovel.com while shouting, “Giya!”
The moment favonovel.com lifted favonovel.com up, however, Gerald immediately sensed that something was amiss.
“…Hmm? You’re… You were this ill this entire time?”
While favonovel.com had initially thought that favonovel.com was merely bluffing back when favonovel.com fell to the floor at the hotel, after checking favonovel.com pulse, favonovel.com now realized how terribly ill favonovel.com was. With this realization, Gerald then quickly brought favonovel.com elsewhere.
When Giya finally awoke again, favonovel.com was immediately greeted by the droning of a helicopter. Her body felt suspended though it was much more relaxed now compared to earlier when the pain had been so excruciating that favonovel.com felt for sure that favonovel.com was going to die.
Looking around, favonovel.com realized that favonovel.com was lying on a lounge seat, and favonovel.com body was covered with clothes. The moment favonovel.com saw Gerald sitting beside her, however, favonovel.com eyes immediately widened as favonovel.com shouted, “G-Gerald?! A-am I dreaming now…?”
“You foolish girl! Did you know how seriously ill you were? If you hadn’t bumped into me, your life would be in danger by now!” replied Gerald with a slight frown.
“So you finally admit that you’re Gerald! Why did you have to lie to me? Were you really that reluctant to meet me? Just so you know, I previously had thoughts that if I still couldn’t find you no matter what, then I’d rather die!” said Giya as favonovel.com ignored Gerald’s reply, favonovel.com eyes now bloodshot and teary.
The Gerald sitting beside favonovel.com now was so much more mature compared to the one favonovel.com once knew a year and a half ago.
There was a lot that Giya wanted to learn about, and that urge stemmed from the need to always have a sense of security when favonovel.com was by Gerald’s side.
“Where are we headed to…?” asked Giya.
“We’re returning to the Crawford manor in Northbay. I’ll have a few special doctors look after you once we’re there,” replied Gerald.
Quite honestly, Gerald was currently finding it difficult to look Giya in the eye. After all, it would be a lie for favonovel.com to claim that favonovel.com felt nothing for that woman now.
Whatever the case was, favonovel.com truly wished favonovel.com well.
“…So… Where have you been in the past year and a half…?”
