The two tall men followed Patrick out and saw him standing before the elevator, reaching out to press a
button.
“Pat, I'll come with you,” Lucas said, worried about Patrick.
Moreover, if he were to tag along, he would get to accompany Lucy for the night.
Patrick did not answer him. He felt much better after taking the painkillers, but the headache was still
wreaking havoc in his head.
Hence, he kept a cold look on his face as he remained silent.
The light shining on him was soft, but it somehow managed to accentuate his gloomy mood.
Frowning, Kevin said, “Pat, don't neglect yourself because of her.”
That was something only a good friend would say to another. When Patrick turned to look at Kevin, a
hint of joy flickered across his eyes.
“She's not the one to blame for my current condition. Instead, you should be holding the one trying to
hurt her accountable.”
Patrick was never one to go up against a woman because he, as a man, did not want to settle any
scores with women. However, what Felicia did utterly infuriated him.
When the elevator arrived, Lucas informed, “Kev, we're leaving now. I'll be going to the airport to send
you off tomorrow.”

The doors to the elevator slowly closed after the two men entered it and stood side by side.
They were both equally tall. Patrick wore a black suit, while Lucas wore a gray T-shirt and pants. Any
stranger who looked at them would automatically assume that Patrick was the more apathetic
individual while Lucas was the more easygoing one.

When Lucy returned to the ward, Gwendolyn had just come out of the bathroom and was wiping her
hands with a tissue.
When Gwendolyn saw Lucy, she said, “I'm going back now.”
Lucy hugged her with a smile.
“Gwen, what would you do if that man came to pick you up?”
Lucy was worried about Gwendolyn going back by herself.
Yet, the mention of Patrick made a dark look cross Gwendolyn's face.
She snapped, “I'd ask him to get lost. I don't need him.”
With that, she tossed the tissue into the trash can before grabbing her bag.
“I've called for a cab, and I'm sure it's reaching soon. I'll head off now. You don't need to worry about
me, okay? Stay with Melanie. By the way, which day of next week is Melanie's surgery going to be on

Lucy smiled. That's just how she is. She seems like someone fragile, but she's a stubborn character.
“Don't be angry, all right? You still have a wound on your head. You can't get angry.”
Gwendolyn nodded. Then, she walked over to Melanie's bed and kissed Melanie's cheek.
When she straightened up, she turned to gaze at Lucy.
“Lucy, the good days of your life are coming soon. Do your best, okay?”

The two women's excellent figures were visible under the street lights. They had slender legs, slim
waists, and extraordinary looks.
Gwendolyn looked like a sweet individual, and Lucy looked like a charming woman. They were two
different kinds of women.
There were not many passersby at that time, but those who walked past them could not help but spare
a few more glances at them.
Right then, a Bentley stopped beside the two of them.
Lucas got out of the car and pulled Lucy into his arms.
“Lucy, I'll be staying here with you tonight,” he told her with a cheeky grin and a raised brow.
Another man had emerged out of the car and walked toward Gwendolyn, but Gwendolyn did not see
him until he was right in front of her. Hence, she was startled.
Right as she turned to flee, he grabbed her.
“Gwendolyn, I've come to send you home.”
While he said that, he quickly looked at her head. Upon noticing the bandages around her head, he
frowned, his heart aching.
“How did this happen?”
Tears welled up in Gwendolyn's eyes. She was prone to tears, and every time she felt aggrieved, tears
would spring to her eyes.
However, at that moment, she was trying her best to force the tears away. She did not want him to see
her cry, for she found it embarrassing.
