Chapter 1: A Rainy Night

Next Chapter

The sky was overcast, the dripping rain didn't know how long, and the air was damp and sticky. No one wants to go out in such weather.

The man in the house stood expressionlessly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scene on the street with his eyes down, and when the knock on the door sounded, the man turned around, his golden curly hair was scattered on his shoulders, his blue eyes were embedded on both sides of his nose, his fair skin made the color of his lips more obvious, and he was tall, if he was placed in normal times, he was definitely a typical British handsome guy, and even had some aristocratic style, but at this moment this man was frowning, his thin lips were tight, and his eyes unconsciously revealed a trace of anxiety, "Come in",

The door opened, and the visitor bowed slightly, saying, "Sir, Miss, please come over..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man hurried downstairs.

After a short gallop, he arrived at the hospital, stopped in front of the door of the ward for a while, took a deep breath, and then pretended to open the door with ease.

This is a luxurious private ward, as soon as you enter, it is a large small living room, the living room table is full of gifts, a few pillows are randomly placed on the soft sofa, and the warm lighting is so warm that it does not look like an intensive care ward at all. Further inside, there was another door, and on either side of the door stood several people in white coats, and the man looked at them and frowned in displeasure.

This room is the opposite of the living room outside, the ward is empty, only the lily still bright on the bay window and the thin body on the hospital bed let people know that there is life in this room.

"Brother William, you're here," the weak voice of the girl on the bed sounded

William walked to the hospital bed in a few steps, gently picked up the girl who wanted to sit up, and scolded softly, "You said that you let those people take care of you, why did you only break people apart, are they not careful enough?" You tell me..."

"No, brother, I just want to be alone, and, brother, we haven't talked for a long time", the girl smiled slightly, but her previously empty eyes were shining at the moment, and William whispered "It's my brother"

He looked at the girl in front of him, her face was six or seven points similar to herself, but her facial features were more feminine, but her already thin body became weaker because of the illness, "Dora....." The man called softly, the woman on the hospital bed raised her hand and gently applied it to her brother's cheek, her eyes were slightly red, "For so many years, brother, you must be very sad" The man lowered his head and covered the pain that flashed in his eyes, yes, it was indeed sad, especially after that person died, only to find that his side was so empty, But under the emptiness, there are hidden traps, and if you are not careful, you will never recover........

"I dreamed of Hitomi last night", Dora's soft voice sounded,

The moment the man heard the name, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his eyes looked eagerly at the source of the voice, Dora understood what his brother meant, he wanted to hear more about Hitomi, even if it was just a dream of his own.

Dora smiled at the corner of her mouth, looking out the window, the sky outside the window was dark, and the rain was as heavy as splashing ink, but the two brothers and sisters in the house were not affected at all, if anyone saw it, they would definitely be attracted by the scene at this moment, or shocked, "In the dream, she sat lazily on the side of the balcony as before to bask in the sun, but she kept holding the document in her hand and didn't raise her head, I made a snack for her, she smiled and said it was delicious....." Dora's pale face slipped a trace of tears, "Brother, you said, if Hitomi hadn't died,,, now,, Wouldn't it be different,,," A thunderclap sounded, William didn't speak, and Dora closed her eyes sadly.

William sat in the car and looked at the running water on the window, lit a cigarette, and the small space seemed to be in another world, yes, if she was still there, would it be different? William smiled wryly.

How nice it would be if we did it again.

The dark red spark flickered on and out, and William crawled on the steering wheel panting heavily, like a trapped little beast alone soothing the invisible wounds of others.

When I returned to my accommodation, the rain was getting much lighter.

William's red eyes were a little terrifying, and no one dared to say a word more when he saw his appearance, and even his breathing was a little cautious. I hadn't slept all night, but the unstoppable feeling of uneasiness frightened William, his premonition had always been accurate, and he was also capable of facing all kinds of contingencies, but, this feeling .....

"Sir,,, you, come to the hospital,,, Miss Dora, she ......," the butler didn't bother to knock on the door, his voice trembling a little

"What's wrong with her, say"

"Miss, my heart just stopped beating ........"

Bang....... As if something had shattered...... William stiffened, "Why, how could it be ....." William's face was pale, and the housekeeper was very sad when he saw William like this, "You ,,, you go quickly...."

William took a deep breath, his whole body was trembling faintly, he clutched the ring on his hand, his originally slender and white hands were even more pale because he had tried too hard, as cold as a marble carving.

The entire floor was emptied, and there were bodyguards in black suits standing on either side, and William ignored it and walked slowly towards Dora's hospital room, the people on both sides bowed their heads and said nothing.

Dora lay quietly on the bed, her long silky blonde hair spread at her side, her beautiful pale face was lifeless at the moment, her eyes gently closed, as if she were asleep. William stared at his sister's face for a long time, trying to remember Dora's smile, he remembered that Dora loved to laugh when she was a child, and was always so optimistic. But, why doesn't the laughing girl match the sleeping beauty in front of her? William was distressed, and the doctor on one side did not dare to speak.

"Dora, Dora.....", a man in a white dress ran into the ward in a panic, William looked coldly at the man who threw himself in front of Dora's bed, his body exuded a faint smell of perfume, and the fine dress seemed to smell of champagne. As if he had just seen William, the man hurriedly wiped his tears, and before he could speak, he met William's cold eyes, and in an instant, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his back.

"Settle that woman's affairs", William glanced at him lightly.

Abel was startled, his legs were a little weak, William didn't care about Abel, and walked out of the room where he had the last trace of concern in this world, his figure was still majestic, and he walked forward with a steady pace, but his heart was broken......
