Chapter 1074


    As she requested, Adam stopped the car.


    He turned to her unhurriedly, fixing his ck eyes on her.


    It was as if he was looking at a willful child.


    Anthea''s heart was pricked by his gaze, and she couldn''t stay any longer. Being difficult and sulky,


    as soon as the car stopped, she unfastened the seat belt and angrily pushed the door open to get


    off the car.


    She also deliberately smashed the door.


    Anthea''s footsteps were heavy. She turned around and walked along the road angrily.


    The neon lights pulled her shadow to the ground, and her ponytail high up on her head was


    swaying, showing her dissatisfaction.


    After walking for more than a dozen steps, she did not hear the footsteps she had expected, which


    made her feel even more aggrieved. But, because of self-esteem, she couldn''t stop. She could only


    continue moving forward, gritting her teeth.


    The jeep was still parked at the side of the road.


    After she opened the door and left, Adam did not drive the car away. Instead, he took the cigarette


    out of the storagepartment.


    He knew that she was sulky and being difficult. Although it was not veryte at this time, he had to


    watch her get in the taxi.


    He lit the light, and blue mes sprang out.


    Adam lit up a cigarette and blew out a mouthful of smoke. He frowned slightly. Even if she ended


    putting on a show of bad temper and stopped a taxi, he had to drive behind the taxi and see her


    home. Only then could he rest assured.


    He took another deep puff, and the smoke lingered in the air.


    Adam squinted at the rearview mirror and could see her swaying ponytail. Not far from her, there


    seemed to be a crowd of people gathering around the intersection. Vaguely, he could hear the


    sound of the ambnce.


    It seemed that there was a car ident.


    It wasn''t far from him. It seemed that a deliveryman who ran a red light was hit. He should be


    seriously injured. There was a huge amount of blood gushing out, having spread all over the ground


    like a blooming flower.


    Adam''s pupils contracted as he suddenly thought of something.


    He quickly put out the cigarette in his hand, then pushed open the door and jumped out of the car.


    When Adam saw the pretty figure of hers near the intersection, she had stopped there, and then


    she became limp and shaky.


    "Anthea!"


    His heart suddenly tightened.


    Worries suddenly appeared on Adam''s expressionless face like a crack appearing on a mirror. He


    ran toward her.


    At the moment when Anthea was about to fall to the ground, he stretched out his arms to catch her


    in time.


    Anthea fell into his arms. Her eyes were closed tightly, body slightly shivering, face pale, lips


    trembling, and hair wet with cold sweat on her forehead. It seemed that she was in a bad condition.


    Adam tightened the grip on his hands, "Don''t be afraid. I''m here!"


    Anthea''s eyshes trembled violently. It seemed that she had felt his breath, and she said in a


    tearful tone, "Uncle Adam..."


    It was in the hospital.


    Anthea woke up. Even if there was only a bedsidemp on, she could clearly see the white light and


    knew that she was in the ward.


    It seemed to be her third hospitalization.


    Every time, it was Adam who sent her to the hospital.


    Anthea subconsciously looked around the room and her sight stopped in front of the window.


    Adam''s tall and strong figure stood there with his hands behind his back. The moonlight outside and


    themplight inside both shone on him. Even if he didn''t wear uniform today, he still looked


    enchantingly vigorous.


    Such a masculine and iron-willed man was easy to make people hold their breath in deep


    admiration.


    It was already very dark outside, and the moon was hanging high. It should be early in the morning.


    Anthea felt that she was surrounded by quietness.


    Anthea thought about the appendix operation.


    When she woke up, she saw him standing by her side.


    However, his back looked cold and hard, and she could feel a sense of distance between them.


    If she had remembered it correctly, before she fainted, it was him who caught her from behind and


    calmed her with his deep voice, saying that he was by her side.


    Her greedy eyes fell on him. She didn''t want to make a sound, but Adam had already felt it and


    turned back, saying, "You''re awake."


    "Um..." Anthea mumbled.


    When she just woke up, she still looked a little weak, and was cuddly.


    Adam walked to the bedside and asked in a low voice, "You have blood phobia?"


    Anthea paused for a moment, and then nodded honestly, "Yes..."


    Adam had already guessed that.


    Previously, when he was catching deserters in the park, his hand was injured by a knife and bled a


    lot. She tore off a piece of cloth to bandage him, but when she touched his wound, the expression


    on her face clearly showed that something was wrong. Later, she asked him to bandage himself.


    He had found out at that time. Later, he was interrupted by other things, so he didn''t dive in.


    Faint caused by the sight of blood is called blood phobia It mainly has symptoms of nausea,


    dizziness, palpitation. When it got worse, the patient would have symptoms of pale face, cold sweat,


    limbs, low blood pressure, and weak pulse. And when it was severe, one would lose his


    consciousness.


    One recruit in a group of soldiers he had trained before had the same symptom. Adam could know


    how patients with blood phobia felt. It was no severe illness and would not affect daily life.


    Anthea said in a low voice, "When I was a child, I had a car ident on the highway. My parents


    died on the spot, and I was the only one who survived!


    "At that time, there was a lot of blood that flowed through the entire car, so it left a psychological


    shadow. I couldn''t stand seeing too much blood. My adoptive mother also took me to see a doctor,


    who said that I was suffering from blood phobia and it was a psychological disorder."


    Because it was not a terrible physical disease and she also tried to avoid seeing blood in life, she


    didn''t pay much attention to it.

    Hearing this, Adam nodded and said in a low voice, "The doctor suggest that you stay in the


    hospital for the night and you can leave tomorrow morning."


    Anthea suddenly sat up and asked, "Adam, are you leaving?"


    "Yes." Adam''s eyes fell on her face and said calmly, "You''re fine. I don''t need to stay here."


    As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave, but his hand was suddenly


    grabbed by hers.


    "Don''t go!" Anthea looked up.


    But unlike the time when she had an appendix operation, he didn''t agree.


    No matter how tightly her hand held his, Adam still forced them apart. There was no swerving in his


    voice and his eyes, "You should have a good sleep."


    Anthea''s hand fell on the sheets, downhearted and dispirited.


    When she looked up, the tall figure was as cold as when she had just woken up.


    "Adam-"


    Anthea''s mind was in a mess as she called him.


    However, Adam didn''t seem to hear it, and kept walking.


    Seeing that his slender hand had already opened the door of the ward, Anthea blurted out, "Adam


    Chin!"


    It was the first time she had called his full name and she was so excited that her voice turned


    hoarse.


    Adam was also sessfully stopped by her.


    Anthea lifted the quilt, jumped out of the bed, and ran to him quickly. She hugged him from behind.
