President's Substitute Wife

I stood at the door and hesitated to go in. I heard Cindy say, “are you crazy? Are you going to die for her? Is she worth it?”

Cindy’s voice was loud and she seemed to be shouting. Her voice came from the crack in the door and reverberated throughout the corridor.

I was scared. I was afraid that she would turn around and close the door. I quickly shrank back.

But she didn’t seem to want to.

Then I heard Sean. It was small, but the corridor was quiet and I could hear it clearly.

He just said, “yes.”

His voice was very pure and without any hesitation.

My heart seemed to be pricked.

Cindy was angry. “You did a lot, but she doesn’t know. She thinks her press conference has solved all the crises. Now she has her own business and lives well. You did a lot of things secretly and almost died. Why?”

I stood at the door and listened to their conversation and was shocked.

What did she mean?

Didn’t my press conference resolve the previous crisis? Did Sean help me?

“It’s my business.” Sean’s voice came from the ward, “she’s involved. I told you I took the initiative and it had nothing to do with her, but you didn’t believe it. If you must hurt her, I can’t ignore it.”

His voice was weak and hoarse.

It was clear that he hadn’t fully recovered.

I saw Cindy clench her fist and say, “you’re in bed now and can’t stand up. You will become disabled. Will she still want you? If she knows, she will run far away!”

“That’s our business.”

Sean’s voice was a little cold.

I knew he must be in great pain now.
