Chapter 670 Worthless Delayed Love
Chapter 670 Worthless Delayed Love
"Manuel, do I deserve to be treated in this way?" Susan asked Manuel fiercely, staring at his back.
Manuel clenched his fists without looking back.
"Just because I dumped you once, I will always be guilty in your heart all my life, right?" Susan's eyes were blurred.
Manuel only showed his back indifferently, still without looking back.
Tears flowed down her cheeks and kept falling. She chuckled. It was her laughing at herself that she fancied too much. "Manuel if you are going to leave me now, I will also give us up."
She cried in her heart. She told herself this was enough. She should give up having affection for him. Since the very beginning, they had been missing the opportunity to be with each other. No matter if it was before when he had liked her or now when she liked him. Maybe, they just shouldn't be together.
Hearing what she said, Manuel paused. His body tensed up. It was hard to tell whether it was because of his desire or anger that he was trembling slightly. Yet he didn't turn back in the end.
He knew it clearly that once he turned back, even if he only glanced at her, he would fall for her again. But he didn't want to be played by Susan anymore. He found it impossible to ignore the hickeys on her neck. It was impossible for him not to care about it. Maybe she had had sex with Henry. What's more, he couldn't accept that he would be dumped by Susan again and again.
As long as Henry had any troubles, she would always choose Henry.
That was enough. He shouldn't persist in those feelings that should not be persisted.
Manuel left, walking into the bedroom and slamming the door shut.
The moment the door closed, Susan felt that her whole world collapsed.
Just like what she had thought before, the delayed love was worthless. Manuel had no feelings for her, but maybe some sort of regret. But that wasn't enough for Manuel to accept her. Today, tonight, now, Susan finally understood the gap between her and Manuel. It was over between them. It was she who had thought that Manuel might still reserve some feelings for her; it was she who had still thought that Manuel had been loving her silently.
Then she turned and left there. She couldn't stay and humiliate herself any longer. She wouldn't care whether Manuel was going to be okay or not anymore. That was his business, not hers.
What she didn't know was when she just left Manuel's house, the man who left before appeared in the living room again. Looking at the empty room, he suddenly returned to his own room again and closed the door firmly.
Susan returned to her car and forced herself to drive calmly. She had had a car accident once already. She didn't want to have another one. She didn't want to die, for a man. It wasn't worthwhile. Dying for Manuel wasn't worthy because he wouldn't suffer for her death.
But she still pulled over the car on the side of the road. Hugging the steering wheel, she cried hard. She knew all of this was her own fault, but she still wanted to cry, for the love she lost. She wept so loud like the world was falling apart.
She didn't know how long she had cried. But when she forced himself to calm down and stop crying, she felt her throat was scratchy. The moment she calmed down, she made a call to Tia. She didn't know what was the relationship between Tia and Manuel. But she was the only female that she could think of that Manuel had been in contact with.
As for Clara, tonight was the first time they met. She was afraid that if she asked her to have sex with him would be too much to ask and would scare her away. Well, Susan thought, even at that point, she was still thinking about Manuel and she despised herself.
When the phone was answered by Tia, she seemed a little surprised, "Miss Phillips?"
Susan's voice was hoarse, but she was extremely calm already. She said, "Manuel is not feeling well. Go to his house to look after him."
"What happened to him?" Tia was very concerned and excited.
"You'll know when you are there," Susan said and then hung up the phone directly. She was benevolent enough to him and this would be the last thing she would do for Manuel. She put down her phone, restarted the car and left calmly.
Early the next morning, Susan got up. She had no idea when she finally fell asleep last night. The moment the alarm rang, she felt the world spinning in her head. She didn't want to get up or go to work. But what could she do if she didn't go and start working? Being autistic and then dying?
She stood in front of the sink, rinsing her mouth. When she was sluggishly gargling her mouth, her eyes were suddenly fixed on somewhere on her neck. She couldn't help touching her neck.
Were those hickeys? There were many hickeys on her neck. She wondered how she could have them on her neck. She first tried to wipe it off with her hands. Once she found out that they couldn't be wiped off, she then took a closer look at them in the mirror and confirmed that they were hickeys.
It was last night when she and Manuel were in the car and he made them.
Susan felt a little disappointed. Manuel could do this to her when he was sober, while after being drugged, he wasn't willing to have sex with her. Was it because he was in control and could stop at any time when he was sober, but he couldn't be able to stop himself once he didn't have a clear mind? So for who was Manuel doing it? Preventing himself from having sex with other women? The more Susan thought about it, the more she felt uncomfortable. She felt that she shouldn't think about him anymore. It had been over between them, completely!
Susan finished rinsing quickly, changed her clothes and put on delicate makeup. When she was about to go to work, she got a call from a stranger. She answered the call while putting on her shoes, "Hello?" "Hi, I'm a staff from Kensbury City People's Hospital, are you Henry's family?"
Susan's heart skipped a beat. Wouldn't it be because Henry committed suicide again, right?
"I am calling you because Henry is having a high fever and he is in a trance. We suspect that he has contracted pneumonia and needs to be hospitalized. When we enrolled his information in our system and your number was there already as his contact. I hope you can come to the hospital as soon as possible. "
"Okay, I'll be right there." Susan agreed without the slightest hesitation. She put down her hand and acted faster. She wondered how Henry would have a high fever. Wasn't pneumonia only infected children? Susan felt a little worried. She drove to the hospital and went directly to Henry's ward.
In the ward, Henry was lying in the bed alone, looking very weak. He was the only one in the room, and he seemed extremely lonely. Susan felt a little bad for him. He always seemed to be alone. She suppressed her emotions and sat on the stool next to Henry's hospital bed. As soon as she sat down, Henry woke up.
He looked at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Why are you here?"
