Lawrence stood at the emergency room door, staring intently at the closed door, not blinking, as if doing so would allow him to see what was happening inside.
His eyes were bloodshot, filled with pain and panic.
His dejected figure was so desolate it tugged at the heartstrings.
Susie, was I wrong?
Susie, I'm sorry!
Maybe I shouldn't have sought revenge.
If I hadn't done those things, would you still be okay?
A layer of mist blurred Lawrence's vision as tears welled up in his eyes.
His hands, hanging powerlessly at his sides, clenched into fists. His mind was filled with images of her covered in blood, causing his heart to ache with every beat.
Rachel stood nearby, seeing him like this, feeling a surge of regret.
He still cared about Susie.
Her jealous eyes flashed with malice.
Why didn't Susie just die in the accident?
Rachel's lips curled into a mocking smile. Losing only a baby, and it made Lawrence so distressed.
She had done it on purpose.
When she saw the truck coming, she quickly ran, gambling that if she got into an accident, Lawrence would feel even more guilty and treat her better.
If Susie got into an accident, it would vent her resentment.
So, she pretended not to see and ran, causing Susie, who was chasing her, to get hit.
She just didn't expect Susie to be pregnant.
Lawrence had always said he wouldn't truly love Susie or let her have his child, but look at him now.
Seeing the sorrowful, regretful man before her, Rachel silently clenched her fists.
What she saw wasn't hatred, but regret.
"Lawrence..."
Suppressing her thoughts, she stepped forward and grabbed Lawrence's hand, her voice trembling as if she were frightened.
Lawrence suddenly shook her hand off, turned, his face a mask of frost, his eyes as sharp as daggers as he stared at her.
Rachel's heart skipped a beat.
"Leave. You're not needed here."
"Lawrence, I didn't mean it. I didn't know a truck was coming, or I wouldn't have run. I would've let her hit me..." Rachel's tears fell, her face full of grievance.
Lawrence's lips curled into a sneer.
His voice was icy, "Rachel, do you think I don't see through your little tricks, or do you think I'm stupid?"
Rachel's face went pale, her hands clutching her clothes tightly.
Lawrence glanced at her coldly.
"Lawrence, I'm not lying. I really didn't do anything. I just wanted to see Susie's father. It's her fault for misunderstanding me..." Rachel frantically reached out to grab him, her eyes filled with panic.
"Get lost!"
Lawrence's shout was filled with irritation, his eyes fixed on the emergency room door.
Rachel, seeing his merciless expression, shuddered in disbelief.
"Have you fallen in love with her?"
