Exchange Fate: Unknown Developments are Full of Surprises
Chapter 2
"Hurry up! Send her to the hospital!"
Human life is of greater value than everything. Thus, many cars made way for the ambulance along the way.
And I followed them all the way.
I watched as the nurses carried my body onto the stretcher and hurried into the hospital.
The moment they passed through the door, Arnold also rushed in with an anxious expression.
Then...
He brushed past me, who was on the stretcher.
I was covered in blood, so Arnold didn't recognize me.
His eyes were full of desire to see Avril, who had just woken up.
I really didn't understand it.
For the past five years, Arnold had never allowed me to do housework.
He got up at 6 a.m. every day in order to buy me my favorite bread for breakfast.
He carefully adjusted his passenger seat for me.
Apart from that, he didn't even allow any of his friends in that passenger seat because he was afraid that if they adjusted the seat, I would feel uncomfortable sitting there later.
Can he really set up such a big con when he doesn't love me at all? I couldn't help wondering.
I followed behind Arnold unwillingly.
Finally, he stopped at the door of Avril's ward.
After a long while, Arnold took a deep breath and held the door handle.
At that moment, I thought that Arnold must be both expectant and afraid.
Suddenly, the sound of something falling to the ground came from inside the ward, followed by screams.
Arnold hurriedly pushed the door open and went in, only to see Avril sitting on the ground.
As soon as Avril saw him, she said helplessly, "Arnold, I think I can't walk now."
She touched her leg in a trance and sounded very down.
"If I can't stand up again, how can I dance?
"I've been dancing the ballet since I was a kid. And it is also my future. Why did God do this to me?
"Why? Why?
"I'd rather die!"
As she spoke, her voice became louder and louder. In the end, she cried out in sorrow and hit the ground desperately.
Arnold's eyes turned red because he felt very sorry for Avril.
He stepped forward and hugged her tightly as if he was guarding his lost treasure.
He choked with sobs and said, "Ava, calm down.
"The doctor said that you've been lying in bed for too long. When you wake up again, you will naturally find that you can't control your body as well as before.
"It's just that your leg muscles have atrophied. As long as you persist in doing rehabilitation exercises, you can recover."
"Really? Avril grabbed Arnold's sleeve tightly, as if she was grabbing a life-saving straw.
"You didn't lie to me, right?" she asked.
"Of course," Arnold replied.
After hearing Arnold's answer, Avril stopped crying and showed a smile. Then, she threw herself into Arnold's arms.
"Arnold, I only have you now. You will always be with me and accompany me until I stand up again, right?" Avril asked.
"I'll be there as long as you need me," Arnold said.
But at the same time, I felt enormous pain in my heart.
On the day I lost my child in a car accident, my husband made a promise to another woman.
Just now, I kept telling myself that Arnold loved me by recalling our beautiful past. But what happened between Arnold and Avril just now was like a head-on blow to me. It made me deeply realize that I was just Arnold's target in his task.
Avril had woken up, so he was done with me.
Five years ago, Arnold confessed his love for Avril, but Avril rejected him. She refused to marry into the Burton family. Later, she turned against her family and went abroad for her dream.
Avril was ambitious, and she was destined to be a successful woman.
In just one year, she had become the famous Swan Princess in the world of ballet.
Unfortunately, Avril's good times didn't last long. On the way back from a competition, she had a car accident and became a vegetable.
It was around that time that I met Arnold.
At that time, he was like a dead man walking, drowning in sorrow and drunkenness every day. I couldn't pull him out, so I joined him.
Instead of trying to persuade him to stop, I drank with him. At that time, I didn't expect that I would get really drunk by drinking just less than half a glass of alcohol. When I was drunk, I smashed all Arnold's wine crazily and also vomited on his coat.
Then, Arnold had no choice but to stop drinking, and he also had to take care of me.
However, I didn't just be quiet and wait for him to take care of me. Instead, I sang on the road and grabbed the wire pole, shouting to the world him how much I loved Arnold.
