"Emma!" Andrew saw her frail figure walking away and wanted to catch up, but suddenly thought of what she had just said and shook his head with a bitter smile.
Speaking of which, he really was—pathetic! She had rejected him so explicitly, wasn't it time for him to take a stand and walk away? Why did he automatically want to comfort her when he saw her in pain?
But what choice did he have? He just liked her, and if that man mistreated her, he wouldn't simply ignore it! However, if she could truly find happiness... then he could only wish her well.
=========================
Emma stumbled her way back, her mind blank, almost unable to accept the possibility.
The sun had risen high, its dazzling light fiercely shining overhead, making her feel dizzy!
Instead of heading to the hospital, she went to a nearby pharmacy and pushed its door open.
