When I woke up, my whole body ached as if it had been run over by a truck.
My head was dizzy, my eyelids were heavy, my whole body was heaty, and it felt as if there was a ball of fire in my throat.
I slowly opened my eyes and saw a young man with a clean shaven face sitting beside the bed.
I asked hoarsely, “Where am I?”
When the young man heard my voice, he shook in surprise, “You’re awake! It’s great! This is a hospital. You have a high fever. Also, you’ve been in a coma for two days.”
He came so close that his breath hit my face, it was hot and itchy,
It had been a long time since I had been that close to someone of the opposite sex, and I could not help but frown in repulsion.
He quickly sat up straight, the tips of his ears turned slightly red as he told me what happened.
He said his name was Ralph Perry. His father was ill and needed money for treatment, so he worked as a taxi man as a side job. With this extra money, he used it to support his family.

He didn’t expect that even though he was driving very carefully, the car skidded and lost control.
Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with me, except for a slightly twisted wrist.
In addition, the doctor said that I was severely anemic and hypoglycemic. Plus, my high fever was not going away. The doctor warned that it would cause pneumonia, so he volunteered to stay until I woke up.
I looked at him. He looked well–mannered and youthful. His big watery eyes were clear and untainted by the cruel world.
I glanced at the coat he was wearing, which had no visible brand name but was of visibly fine workmanship. This young man was not very good at lying.
However, I did not expose him. On the contrary, I was very grateful that he stayed.
I said, “Thank you, but you don’t have to stay with me here. Just call someone from the insurance company.
He was sincere, “Actually, that’s what I originally planned. However, neither the police nor the doctors can contact your family, so I stayed.”
I see.
That group of people must have been paying attention to the scheming mother and daughter, so no one had time to pay attention to me.
At this moment, my cell phone rang.
Ralph showed it to me, and the word “Husband” was displayed on it.
He was very surprised. After all, it was rare for a married person to be left in a hospital for two days without being contacted.
I wanted the young man to ignore it, but he quickly pressed the answer button. He even pressed on the speaker button thoughtfully.
On the other end of the phone, Mark’s voice came, “Lily, where have you been these two days?
I rolled my eyes, not wanting to say another word to this evil man.
Mark’s tone was a bit colder, “I don’t care where you are, come back now and apologize to Sophie and her daughter. The doctor said that Tauny suffered psychological trauma from what trappened back then and would faint whenever her heart rate increases. You harmed Sophie and her daughter. Do you not feel guilty?
I frowned in disgust, but before I could say anything, Mark continued to talk to himself, “Your verents are here too, and they said that as long as you are willing to apologize to Sophie, they will forgive you Don’t you want your parents back? This is a once–in–a–lifetime opportunity,

You will regret it if you don’t come.”
I sneered, and just as I was about to speak, Ralph spoke first, “She can’t go, she’s dead, and her body is in the funeral parlor. Why don’t you go look for it? If you come any later, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to find her ashes.”
