Chapter 873


    Winnie chose to go home directly after she left the hospital.


    She fixed her eyes outside the window throughout the way home, and there was no light in her eyes.


    Before the door, she input the password but before she pushed the door open, the door was opened


    from the inside.


    It was her assistant. She looked at Winnie worriedly, “Where have you been, Ms. Truman? I have been


    unable to contact you sincest night when I saw your messages. And you were not at home. So, you


    …”


    The assistant then suddenly noticed her swollen face and the thick bandage around her wrist, “Ms.


    Truman, Chassell the bastard has threatened you again, right? I will call the police!”


    Winnie stopped her and squeezed these words out of her throat, “I’ve called the police. That’s okay. I


    will have a sleep and then it would be fine.”


    “But you…”


    Winnie put a faint smile on her face, “Don’t bother. You can just go home right now.”


    Then she walked slowly into the bedroom and closed the door behind her before she copsed onto


    the bed.


    Though she had stood awake for a whole day and night and she was now literally exhausted, she could


    not fall asleep.


    The moment she closed her eyes, she saw the picture in which Channing was taken away by the


    police.


    It was quite stifling.


    Tears began to trickle down her cheeks silently, her hands pressed on her heart heavily.


    Soon, she burst out crying and she felt as if her throat were strained and herself strangled.


    She just lied there as if she were dead, not knowing how long she had been there and when the night


    fell.


    She felt as if she had been devoured by darkness.


    A few hourster, she felt the door of her room was opened. And someone was calling her.


    Later, silence reigned her room again. Sound of cooking and then smell of foods began to be sent over


    through the door.


    When she sat up, she felt herself dazzled.


    With her body leaning against the wall, she walked out slowly towards the living room.


    Sherry was sitting on the sofa and waved to her, “You finally wake up.”


    Winnie greeted her before she looked at the kitchen.


    It was Ste who was cooking there.


    Winnie was stunned a bit, “Why are you here?”


    With a pot of fish soup in hand, Ste headed out of the kitchen, “Your assistant found us in the studio.


    She said you were in bad condition and she was quite worried about you.”


    A sense of embarrassment climbed on Winnie’s face. She said awkwardly, “It’s nothing. I can just have


    a good sleep and I will be better.”


    Sherry said, “We took the temperature of you. You''ve got a fever. You should take good care of yourself


    or your wound will get infected.”


    Ste said, “You should eat something first and then take some medicine before you sleep.”


    Staring at the foods on the table, Winnie said with her eyshes quivering, “Thank you …”


    Sherry stood up and helped her to sit before the table, “Let’s get started. I also feel hungry before those


    dishes.”


    Winnie tried to reach the fork and knife, but the intense pain on her wrist stopped her.


    Noticing that, Ste scooped a bowlful of soup and ced the bowl before her. Then she put a spoon


    into the bowl.


    Sherry had known what happened today from Daniel, and she also informed Ste.


    Ste called Winnie for several times, but her phone had been turned off all the time.


    That’s when Winnie’s assistant came to find them.


    Winnie had been lowering her head during the meal. She had difficulty in picking the food so Ste and


    Sherry just kept helping her.


    She remained silent and she ate whatever they picked for her.


    After the meal, Winnie stood up and tried to clean the table. Sherry instantly stopped her, “I will handle


    this. You just have a rest on the sofa.


    Ste helped Winnie to sit on the sofa. Seeing the wound on her face and the corner of her mouth,


    Ste took the Iodophor and cotton swabs which they had just bought.


    Winnie said with her head lowered, “The doctor said I should go there every second day.”

    “Then Sherry and I will pick you up the day after tomorrow. You should take good care of yourself at


    home and keep your wound dry. Call me if you need.”


    Winnie looked away and fixed her eyes on the carpet, “Don’t bother. I will have myself apanied by


    my assistant.”


    “All right. Then we will visit you then.”


    Winnie bit her lips a bit and halted for a second before she said, “Don’t you hate me?”


    Ste threw the swabs into the dustbin, “Why should I?”


    “It was I that make Channing …”


    “I’ve told you that you don’t have to mind what others think about your rtionship. Channing was


    indeed in trouble. I was worried too. But I won’t be angry at you because you are also a victim in this


    case. Plus, it has been proved that you mean a lot to him.”


    Ste smiled at her, “But if you want me to y the role of a vicious sister who tries to break you up, I


    can meet your requirement. I’ve be interested in acting these days.”


    Sherry heard that as she walked out of the kitchen.


    Ste really sounded like a cruel sister.


    Winnie shook her head and took a deep breath. Seemingly she wanted to say something, but she


    didn’t.


    Ste knew Winnie could not forgive herself right now so she patted her shoulder and said, “Don’t


    bother. Channing will be free soon. I promise you.”


    Sherry walked over and sat on the other side of Winnie, “OK. You should listen what Ste had said.


    I’ve been informed that Chassell was quite well now. He won’t die. Though he deserves to die.”


    Winnie knew they wereforting her. But she could not feel happy anyway.


    After resting for a while, Sherry stood up and boiled a pot of water for Winnie.


    Winnie took some medicine and lied on the bed.


    Then Ste turned away to say to Sherry, “You can leave now. I will stay here to look after Winnie.”


    Sherry said, “I should stay. You’re pregnant. If rence knew I leave you here, he would have me


    killed.”


    Before Ste could say anything, Winnie said, “You don’t have to stay here. I can take care of myself.”


    “No.”


    Ste and Sherry said simultaneously.


    Halting for a second, Winnie said, “Then I will call my assistant.”


    Ste nodded, “That’s okay.”


    They waited until the assistant came. Ste gave her some tips and told her what was left in the


    refrigerator. Then she left together with Sherry.


    On the way home, Sherry said, “I may be illusioned to think that Winnie may want to break up with


    Channing.”


    Staring at the scenery outside the window, Ste said slowly, “It’s hard for her to start the rtionship.


    Now she may think it was she who ruined Channing’s future.”


    Sherry sighed, “I know it’s difficult. But if I were her, I would feel all the same. Channing is such an


    excellent boy. But those photos …”


    “Just let it go. It’s their choice anyway. We should do our best indeed. But the choice is made by them


    anyway.”
