A Moment in Destiny

"There're a lot of beautiful women in H Street, I have a fetish for collecting them, so naturally I can't miss this place!" Philip blinked mischievously, and Esther suddenly laughed.

"You're funny!"

"Get in the car, where are you going? I'll drive you!"

"Aren't you looking for the beautiful women?"

"I can find them another day!"

Esther shook her head. "No, I'll take the bus myself, thank you!"

After finishing her words, ignoring Philip, she walked towards the bus stop. It so happened that a bus arrived, and Esther boarded it.

She hadn't seen Kattie for days and wondered how she was doing now!

The bus stopped at the hospital. Esther got off the bus and headed toward the inpatient building. She walked slowly as she hadn't eaten anything before she got here in a hurry.

The moment she walked in, she saw Elijah sitting by Kattie's bed in the ward. Seeing her enter, his expression was indifferent while she was a little embarrassed. A smile then bloomed on her face as she turned to Kattie and said, "Miss Cole, are you feeling better?"

Kattie was lying on the bed with gauze wrapped around her head. Once she saw Esther, she froze slightly and then smiled at her as well. "You, you're Esther!"

"Ah–you can talk now?" Esther was stunned for a moment, then rushed to her in surprise. "Can you talk?"

"Yes!" Kattie had been able to speak after waking up from the external ventricular drainage operation.

"That's great!" Esther almost cried with tears of joy. "It's all my fault for causing you to lie in bed so long!"

"It's okay, I know it's not what you want. You're scared these days too, aren't you?" Kattie's words sounded truly clear. Although the speed of her speech was a bit slow, it was unusually clear. Her voice was gentle and pleasant to listen to.

"It's my fault for causing you to suffer, you have to get better as soon as possible!" Esther sincerely held Kattie's hand and said, "Otherwise I will have a bad conscience for the rest of my life!"

"Okay! I hope I can recover too!" Kattie said softly.

"Mr. Perry, the doctor said that Miss Cole is ready to eat!" The caregiver came in from outside, and the moment she saw Esther, she greeted her with a smile. "Miss Price, you're here!"

Esther saw that she was carrying the thermos from the hospital in her hand, which should be the lunch prepared for Kattie.

"Give it to me!" Elijah took the bowl from the caregiver's hand and his gaze fell tenderly on Kattie. "Kattie, let's eat something!"

"Okay!" Kattie smiled tenderly, looked towards Elijah who was next to her, pursed her lips, and said softly, "Sorry to bother you, Elijah!"

"Can I feed her?" Esther asked enthusiastically.
