Chapter 1086


    Leonardo rubbed his hands and walked to Adam with a smile, "Do you still remember me?"


    Adam looked indifferent. He said quietly, "Mm, Anthea''s ssmate."


    They had met twice, and Adam knew that Leonardo and Anthea had a very good rtionship.


    When Anthea was sent to the military hospital after being drugged, he also made a phone call to


    Leonardo and asked him to take care of Anthea.


    Thinking of the first time they met and that thing about first love, Adam''s eyes suddenly became a


    little cold.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    "Haha, that''s right!" Leonardo nodded.


    Seeing that his military boots just stepped on the cigarette butt, Leonardo actually wanted to ask for


    a cigarette first.


    However, when he looked into his cold and stern eyes, he felt a chill run down his spine. In the end,


    he just swallowed his saliva.


    Like the other soldiers in the rescue team, Adam''s chin was covered with stubble of several days,


    but he didn''t seem to be shaggy at all.


    His five sense organs had deep lines, and there was a sculpture-like shadow on the bridge of his


    nose. Covered by the hazy moonlight, he was extremely handsome.


    Especially the tall and strong figure, the muscle fitted the uniform that made him surrounded by a


    strong and unstoppable aura.


    He had to admit that this man is handsome and charming.


    Not to mention a little girl, even Leonardo felt that he was no match for this man. It was no wonder


    that Anthea wanted to cross the boundary.


    It seemed that Adam didn''t want to waste time, so he nced at him and said, "What do you want


    to say to me?"


    Leonardo said in his heart, "F*ck, not this way!"


    He was discouraged, and then he casually smiled and said, "Uncle, a year ago, when Anthea ran


    back from Francis area, it was me who went to the airport to pick her up, but she cried non-stop for


    a day and a night!"


    Adam''s face froze.


    Leonardo sighed with emotion and said, "Before the college entrance examination, Anthea had


    decided to study medicine, FOR YOU!"


    After that, Leonardo observed Adam''s expression.


    He wanted to get some information out of it, but


    Adam hid it so well. His ck eyes were as deep as an ancient well, without any ripples. Leonardo


    realized that his shrewdness was not worth mentioning in front of him, so he stopped observing.


    Leonardo put his hands behind his back and continued, "Anthea had blood phobia. Do you know


    that?"


    "Yes." Adam said in a low voice.


    In fact, this was also a doubt in his heart.


    Adam never forgot her fainting when she ran into that car ident. She was dripping with cold


    sweat and her face was pale. He feared that his bleeding would cause her to faint again. Therefore,


    he proposed to have another medical staff to bandage for him.


    However, she did not even blink her eyes during the bandaging. She handled it very calmly.


    Adam nced to his side and knew that Leonardo would answer his questions.


    "Then do you know what she did in order to ovee this blood phobia?"


    Adam was silent, waiting for him to continue.


    Leonardo didn''t keep him guessing and said directly, "She had met a lot of psychiatrists and had


    systematic desensitization treatment. It was to let the patients directly face what they fear, and to


    experience the physiological reaction all by themselves. Gradually, the patients'' sensibility to what


    they fear will reduce and then they will be able to control their panic."


    "It took Anthea nearly a month to do it in the name of part-time job. In fact, she went to the


    Emergency Department of all the hospitals and forced herself to experience the terrible scenes of


    surgeries. She even went to the scene of the car ident, which was almost torture for her!"


    "In the beginning, she would faint several times a day, but when she woke up, she had no hesitation


    to continue! When she could finally control her panic, she ran all the way to Francis, but you..."


    Adam''s heart trembled.


    He knew clearly about the shadow in her heart and what caused her blood phobia.


    He still remembered that she was lying on the bed and grabbing the sheets, telling him that her


    parents died in the car ident and only she survived. When she spoke, her voice was low, but he


    noticed that her knuckles were white, which showed how scared she was.


    However, in order to ovee this symptom, she went to face such terrible scenes...


    She must be scared!


    Even if she fainted again and again, she didn''t shake her determination. She went forward bravely!


    It was for him that she chose to study medicine. But in the end, he rejected her ruthlessly.


    Adam knew that she had worked part-time after she graduated. She mentioned it once at the Hsu


    family''s dining table, but he pretended not to have heard it at that time.


    Later, when she mentioned studying medicine, he thought her determination was just childish


    words. He didn''t think that she would pay so much efforts...


    He lit up a cigarette again. Under the moonlight, there was a white mist, and his eyes were deep.


    Adam felt that the vines in his heart had already withered.


    But now, it seemed to havee back to life. It was full of leaves and branches, twining around his


    entire heart.


    Leonardo hadpleted his task. He yawned and returned to his tent to sleep. Then, he casually


    shook his hair, keeping what he said a secret!


    The warm sunshine shone on the earth.


    The rain stoppedst night, and the next day, it finally got sunny. Although it was still cloudy, it was


    already a good sign.


    Because of the flood, the air was still damp.


    Anthea had been busy all morning and changed several patients'' dressings. Professor Vincent


    stayed up verytest night and had went to sleep because he was too tired. Anthea got out to get


    something to eat.


    One couldn''t be too picky on food sent to the disaster area. Beside, these foods wouldn''t easily go


    bad and also fill stomachs.


    Getting out of the tent, she saw several green figures in front of her. They were young. She was


    familiar with the one in the middle, who seemed to be a young soldier who had been treated by her


    yesterday afternoon.


    He was nudged by anotherrades-in-arms, and their eyes were blinking in her direction, as if


    they were hinting at something.


    He was kicked at the leg by one of hisrades and walked toward Anthea, blushing.


    The soldier handed her milk and bread in his hand and said, "Doctor Lee, thank you for saving me


    yesterday!"


    Anthea took it with gratitude and said with a smile, "I didn''t save you at all. I just helped you to deal


    with the wound! By the way, the wound is deep on your forehead. You should pay more attention to


    it, or you won''t look handsome if you leave a scar on it!" "Thank you all the same, Doctor Lee!" The


    Soldier''s face suddenly turned red.


    Anthea was very embarrassed to be called as a doctor, "Don''t call me doctor. I''m only 19 years old.


    I''m just in my sophomore year in September. In fact, I am not a real doctor. I''m just helping my


    teacher! You should be two or three years older than me. Just call me by my name!"


    "Can I?" The soldier asked nervously and excitedly.


    "Of course!" Anthea smiled, revealing two shallow dimples.


    When sheughed, her eyes was a little curved up, just like the crescent moon. Her palm-sized little


    face was lit up, and her beautiful face was even more gorgeous.


    The soldier was a little stunned by her beauty.


    Just as his heart was beating heavily, a low and deep voice suddenly came from behind him, "What


    are you two talking about?"
