Chapter 3

I thanked the little boy and his mother and I gathered my energy to look at the IV fluids bottle.

It was already afternoon when my IV fluid bottle was empty and Jarvis still had not contacted me, not even a single phone call.

I stood up and planned to go home by myself, but I fell back down because of dizziness and powerlessness.

There was nothing I could do, so I dialed Jarvis' phone number.

When he heard that I was still in the hospital, he was stunned for a long time.

"I'm sorry, Serena, Noelle was injured and crying in pain, also she couldn't bear the smell of disinfectant in the hospital, so I thought about sending her back first and looking for you then ...."

Before he could finish his words, Noelle's sweet voice came through the end of the phone.

"Jarvis, are you not done yet? I'm so hungry ...."

Although he immediately covered the audio receiver, her clear voice still reached my ears.

"Serena, it's not what you think. Go home first and I'll come back later to explain to you."

I pursed my lips.

I was not even interested in hearing his so-called explanation. It was just a repeated deception towards me.

I could only say, "It's okay, I can do it myself."

No one in this world who would not be sad and devastated to lose someone in their life.

So did I, Serena Collins, who lost my sweetheart.

After hanging up the phone, I called someone to help me pick me up at the hospital and take me home.

That night, Jarvis did not go home as he promised.

Late at night, my boss asked me to handle an urgent document and a notification suddenly popped up on my phone.

As soon as I clicked on it, I found that Jarvis reposted Noelle's X post.

A picture of shadows cuddling together, with a sweet caption attached.

[Who says no one will wait for you? The one who truly cares about you is the one who will always be there for you no matter how far you go!]

Just as I clicked the like button, the post had been deleted.

However, the next moment, another notification popped up again from his X account.

He blocked my main account and reposted it again, but he forgot to block my secondary account.

I laughed and unfollowed both his accounts.

That night, without Jarvis, I slept very well and felt much more energetic.

I rushed to the company on time and handed my resignation letter to the director.

She was actually reluctant to accept my resignation letter, but knowing that I would be going back to my hometown to get married, she could only give her blessing and hug me.

After completing the handover, my colleagues who were also reluctant to accept my resignation started making noise and asking me to treat to a meal.

Of course, I would not excuse myself, I had already booked a place for dinner and karaoke.

I did not know if Noelle and I had some kind of fate. Just when I went to the bathroom in the middle of our karaoke, I bumped into her again.

Facing my surprised expression, she appeared much calmer.

"What a coincidence! You're here to have fun too?"

I smiled at her politely. I did not feel like there was anything to talk about between us, so I planned to go back to the private room.

But she did not seem to think so. She blocked my step and said intimidatingly, "Do you hate me that much? Why? It's a pity, I thought we have a lot in common, Serena. We even have to dip beef in vinegar."

Her words made me tilt my head slightly to look at her.

I had always been curious why Jarvis always dipped beef in vinegar when he served it to me?

He told me that it tasted good this way, but I could never get used to it.

Now it seemed it was also an excuse. He dipped the beef in vinegar to continue the habit he always did with Noelle to me.

My stomach suddenly churned. I felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

But she continued to chatter on.
