Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 167 Randall Vargas

Danika was stunned for a moment before she immediately explained, "Doctors help each other out, too. The surgical department gets so many patients after all. "Judging by your accent, you're not from around here. Are you here for work or pleasure?"

I didn't think she'd take the initiative and feel me out. I proceeded to tell her the truth. All lies would be exposed eventually. Telling the truth was the safest option. "Keenan Green is my uncle, and Harmon Group intended to collaborate with the Green family. My husband probably got hurt at the construction site."

Danika nodded thoughtfully. "So, that's what happened. You are one of the Greens too. Well, do you know that...?"

"Oh, dear!"

A familiar voice could be heard as the cleaning cart toppled once again. This time, the pill bottles smashed and shattered, and the medicine in them splashed all over Danika.

Danika's expression turned cold immediately. There was even disdain on it. "How could you be this careless? What if you ran into a patient? I told the people at the hospital a long time ago that we shouldn't hire old folks. Good grief." Danika kept wiping her clothes with tissues. It looked like she was a neat freak. In fact, all the doctors were. She probably lost the mood to keep probing me. She grumbled about what bad luck she had and returned to her office. Meanwhile, I helped the janitor clean up the mess. I crouched and was about to pick up the shattered pieces, but he immediately stopped me

"Watch out." The janitor used his broom to sweep the floor. Then, he checked my shoes and pants. Once he was sure that none of the glasses were stuck onto me, he pushed the cleaning cart away and left.

I felt a lump in my throat when I saw his gestures. Who else would do all these, if not the people who truly cared about you?

Randall was one such considerate person. Dad always said that Randall wouldn't have been able to work in accounting if it wasn't for how meticulous he was, let alone managing a big company.

The janitor also carefully removed the plastic paper from me last time. He was about to leave with his cleaning cart, but I called out to him softly, "Randall."

The janitor's hands paused for a second, but he didn't stop pushing the cart. He limped as he left.

Chaputte Randall Vä

This time, I didn't chase after him. I was sure that the janitor was Randall. Perhaps he made changes to his appearance and voice after the fire. On top of that, he might've stayed here to look after his own daughter.

With that said, I stood a chance to find out the truth about what happened back then if I tracked Randall down. There was a lot of unwanted attention in the hospital. I didn't dare to stay there for too long. Then, I hurried over to the ward. Leonard was awake. He seemed more energetic when he saw me. I looked at the gauze wrapped around his arms and legs. There was even a band-aid on his face. All of a sudden, my eyes turned red.

Leonard flashed me a smile, but the grin pulled at his wounds, and he gasped sharply from the pain.

Alisa immediately went you okay, Leo? What's hurting you?"

At first, I was on the verge of tears. However, I was no longer in the mood after I saw what Alisa did. We were all part of the Green family. Why was I this unfortunate?

Leonard secretly glared at Alisa before he looked at me. "When did you come here, Eva?"

"A minute ago." I didn't bother expressing much concern to him. Then, I looked at Alisa and Keenan. "You two should go home. I'll take over."

"How could we? Leonard got hurt because of Alisa. She should be the one who looks after him. "Keenan gave Alisa a shove. I saw her annoyed expression. The contempt in it was unmistakable. However, Alisa changed her expression at the next second. "That's right. Leo got into this because he saved me. I have to stay back and take care of him.

"Go back to the company and resume your work, Eva. I'll keep Leo company."

I seriously wasn't in the mood to put on an act with her. So, I straight up sat on the hospital. bed, while she sat on the other side of it.

Keenan raised his eyebrows before he left the ward. The moment he was gone, Alisa stood up in disdain and wiped her hands on her pants vigorously as if there was something dirty on the bed.

I noticed something wrong with Leonard's expression and realized both of them were about to tear each other a new one at the next second. So, hurriedly said something.

"I think I saw Randall!"
