Chapter 9
Did he actually make her apologize to Caroline?
Let the victim apologize to the perpetrator.
Hailey’s heart ached incessantly as she firmly shook her head, “I was not wrong, no matter what, I could never apologize!”
Hailey refused to apologize, and Bryan insisted on an explanation. Neither of them was willing to back down.
Caroline, afraid of being exposed any further, lifted her tear–filled face and pulled him to leave.
“Bry, just consider it my fault. Don’t argue with your girlfriend anymore, take a moment to calm down, okay?”
Bryan couldn’t listen at all, and Caroline saw no other way, so she had to muster up the courage and forcefully sprained her left foot.
Watching her get hurt, Bryan’s expression immediately changed from calm to panic and concern.
He didn’t have time for Hailey anymore, so he picked up the person and ran downstairs.
Watching the fading figures of the two people, the hot blood surging inside Hailey gradually cooled down, replaced by endless grievances and sadness.
The tears that she had been holding back for a long time instantly fell. She quickly wiped them away and went back to the lobby, picked up her bag, and left the hotel.
Just as she walked out of the hotel gate, a car came straight towards her and hit her.
Hailey couldn’t dodge in time and was hit into the flower bed, bloodied.
She was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat. After being taken to the hospital, she was barely conscious.
The nurse, seeing the injury was so severe, directly unlocked the phone with her fingerprint and found the Facebook profile, made a voice call.
A few seconds later, a low and grumbling voice, still filled with Bryan’s lingering anger, came from the phone.
I didn’t argue with you only because Caroline got hurt, but that doesn’t mean you were not wrong. You must come and apologize to her!
The nurse hesitated for a moment before truthfully informing Hailey about her condition.
Bryan was still angry and didn’t believe that such a coincidence could happen.
Even if there was a real car accident, I would only go and sign if she apologizes!
After saying that, he didn’t care about the reaction on the other side and hung up the phone directly.
The nurse had no choice but to forcibly wake up Hailey and ask her if she could still contact other relatives to come over.
She didn’t want to worry her family, and couldn’t think of anyone else, so she could only endure the intense pain, and with her still bleeding hand, tremblingly signed her name on the surgery notice.
The surgery was successfully completed, and I had to stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation.
Hailey was alone in the hospital, with no one to take care of her. She had to do everything herself, despite her illness.
Several nurses on the side were chatting, saying “the young master of the Reid family,”
My girlfriend got injured and I covered the entire floor upstairs. Every day, I tenderly and patiently took care of her myself, it seems like I really like her.
Hailey lay silently on the hospital bed.
She took out her phone and cleared all the past relationship updates one by one, and then deleted all of Bryan’s contact information.

On the day of her discharge, she went alone to handle the procedures and happened to run into Bryan at the elevator entrance, who was carrying Caroline back to the ward.
She glanced coldly, then turned her head and walked towards the staircase.
Bryan also saw her.
But when he realized and turned around, there was no one around him.
He subconsciously thought it was an illusion.
After all, Hailey was so afraid of pain that when her knee was hit by a ball during school, she was comforted for a long, long time.
If there had really been a car accident, how could I have possibly endured the grievance and not told him?
After returning home, Hailey called for a housekeeper and threw away all the things she had previously cleaned out.
Then she walked into the study and tore up the diary that had recorded eight years, page by page.
At the age of fifteen, there was a throbbing of love at first sight. At the age of seventeen, there was the courage to go north alone for him. At the age of eighteen, there was the joy of fulfilling a wish.
The girl’s worries that had trapped her for eight years completely vanished on this day.
She placed the breakup letter in a place where Bryan could see it as soon as he came back, pushed the last bit of luggage and left the house, and hailed a taxi downstairs.
The driver saw that she was injured and quickly helped to put the suitcase into the trunk.
She turned around, wanting to take one last look at the city she had lived in for six years, but she collided with a pair of familiar eyes.
Bryan had just gotten off the car when he saw her, and his face softened a lot.
“Going out?”
Hailey looked at him quietly, with no trace of the love she once had in her eyes. “Is there something you need?”
Bryan, however, did not realize it and only felt that she still refused to give in, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
“I came back to get something and wanted to chat with you.”
“No…”
Hailey hadn’t finished saying the words of refusal when Bryan’s phone rang, and as he answered it, his brow furrowed slowly. After the phone call ended, he turned around and opened the car door again. Just before getting in, he hastily left a few words. “Since you haven’t calmed down yet, let’s talk another time. Take care when you go out and remember to come back early.”
Come back?
It would not come back again.
Hailey got on the car only after the car had driven out of sight, with the driver urging her.
She closed the car door and looked at the weather outside, with the mountains about to be engulfed by rain. Her eyes were as still as dead water, without any ripples.
“Miss, where did you go?”
“The airport.”
