Bye, My Ex-husband

 Alana's spirits lowered as she looked at Janessa and Eric speaking to one another as if they were long-lost friends.

She couldn't help but look at Eric's wounded figure again.

On his forehead was a piece of gauze as wide as three fingers and soaked in his blood.

Below that, he had beautiful bushy eyebrows that framed his strong face.

His eyes shone with newfound hope, and he had delicate lips, which made him look equally handsome and intelligent.

Even underneath the harsh fluorescent lights, Eric's face still looked golden and healthy.

Alana's heart was beating wildly as she admired him.

At that moment, she knew that she would remember this forever.

Years later, when she recalled this exact moment, she could still remember how fast her heart was beating.

"Alana, I want to take Eric in as my younger brother.Would you like to join me?"

Janessa asked with a smile on her face.

She noticed that Alana hadn't said much since they arrived at the hospital.

"No, I don't want to do that!"

Alana shoved Janessa'‘s hand away and ran out in tears.

Only Janessa and Eric were left there.

They looked at each other in confusion before looking back to see Alana's receding figure.

Eric tugged on Janessa's clothes and asked, "What's wrong? Why is she crying?"

Eric was still a naive young man.

The only thing on his mind was paying off the substantial debt he owed.

This young man didn't know the first thing about love.

Seeing Alana in tears alarmed him, and he didn't know how to help her.

"Don't worry about her; she'll be fine.I'm sure the nurse will take you to your ward and you should get some rest now.I'll check up on you later."

Janessa gave Eric a reassuring pat on the shoulder before she left.

Janessa could read Alana like a book.
