Adeline woke up again a day later and learned from the nurse that Hugo’s surgery had been successful, and he was now in the hospital room.
But due to excessive blood loss, when he would wake up was unknown.
I might wake up tomorrow, or I might never wake up.
Upon hearing this, Adeline’s heart sank. After all, he had saved her before, so she felt she should go see him.
As Adeline pushed open the door to the ward, the strong smell of disinfectant rushed into her nostrils. She stood still for a moment before continuing to walk inside, finally sitting down by Hugo’s bedside.
When she had just woken up, the male teacher who had helped save the student came with the student to apologize to her.
The mudslide came too suddenly, and his grandparents, who had poor memories, forgot to take his toys with them. When he found out, he was very anxious. He sneaked out of school, but he didn’t expect that he almost caused two lives in the end. Finally, he was also severely punished by his grandparents.
Adeline didn’t say anything, she just returned the snatched toy to the student and told him not to do such dangerous things again in the future, then she let the male teacher take him back.
This matter also ended satisfactorily, only Hugo in front of me has not woken up yet.
Adeline looked at him sleeping peacefully, unable to describe the feeling she had in that moment.

Before the male teacher left, he told her that he had met Hugo on the way back to school while carrying a student. Hugo heard that they were looking for someone, so he hurriedly followed. It’s just that he is not familiar with the mountain village, so he walked the wrong way many times before finding them.
At that time, he was already soaked all over, with multiple bruises on his body, but he was only thinking about finding her as soon as possible.
When it came to the end, the male teacher couldn’t help but exclaim that he didn’t know what the relationship between her and Hugo was, but he could tell that Hugo loved her very much.
Thinking of this, Adeline couldn’t help but smile wryly.
It cannot be denied that Hugo really loved her, whether it was in the past or during this mudslide.
But that didn’t stop him from sleeping with other women, having
children, and getting married, then deceiving her and making her wait for him again.
Adeline really couldn’t wait any longer, so she decisively left him.
Even now she still feels that she left too late.
She should have left when Hugo compromised and slept with Steffie, instead of when he was crying on his knees, slapping himself and begging her to stay, she softened for a moment.
Causing oneself to suffer so much in the end.
Fortunately, she eventually left and gradually moved on from this painful period.
But now, Hugo came to find her again.
He said he was wrong and regretted it.

He said he had already taken care of Steffie and the children.
He said he wanted to win her back.

However, Hugo had never considered one question: although Steffie was sent abroad by the Guenet family to fend for herself, their daughter was
still there.
They always had times when they met, what if he softened his heart again at that time?
And Adeline couldn’t help but think of their daughter, which reminded her of what had happened before, like finding money in the trash – disgusting whether you pick it up or not.
It was also very annoying.
Adeline was afraid of dirt and disgusted, so she wouldn’t pick up the money no matter how much it was.
Even if Hugo had suffered the most serious injury for her, she would not turn back.
On the third day of Hugo’s coma, Marcella, who had learned of his accident, hurriedly came to the mountain village.
Three months later, when I saw Marcella again, the once elegant and aloof Marcella now looked weary, with tired eyes and a face full of wrinkles. When I talked to her, her tone was much softer.
Even the first time he bowed his head and apologized to Adeline, saying that in the past she had been blind and mistaken in people, it was she and Edwin who had wronged her.
Perhaps it was karma, now the Bernard family has experienced several economic crises, and their son has also turned out like this.
In the end, Marcella wiped away the tears from the corner of her eye.

She said she didn’t expect Adeline to forgive herself and Edwin, she just hoped that she wouldn’t hold a grudge against Hugo anymore.
After all, the outcome has come to this point because of her and Edwin.
Adeline quietly listened to Marcella vent, without saying anything.
