“That’s right, Hansen. The rest of us combined don’t even mean a tenth of what you do to her in her heart. Everyone knows how much Christine loves and cares about you.”
Hansen sneered coldly. “Cares about me?”
The crowd that had been so lively before gradually fell silent.
“Hansen, should I call Christine?”
“You really should get that wound treated first.”
Jorgie gathered up his courage and lifted up his phone to snap a picture of Hansen’s injured hand.
After that, he sent a message to me.
Hansen didn’t stop him, but it might just be because Jorgie had been too quick for him to react.

The room suddenly fell silent.
After about ten seconds, Jorgie’s phone rang.
“See? I knew Christine still loved you so much. Look, Hansen, Christine is calling!” Jorgie exclaimed.
Everyone in the room noticed that Hansen seemed to relax slightly.
“Hansen, are you going to answer it?” Jorgie held the phone out, but Hansen turned his face away and refused to even look at the phone.
Jorgie said happily, “Fine, I’ll answer it.”
He deliberately put the call on speakerphone.
The moment I answered, Hansen’s jaw tightened. “Jorgie, what happened? Did you get hurt?”
“It’s not me, that was Hansen’s hand. You won’t believe how bad it is. The blood won’t stop…” Jorgie rambled on, but the other end of the call remained completely silent.
Jorgie asked, “Christine, are you listening? Why don’t you come back here? Hansen is refusing to go to
hospital, but I can’t just keep letting him bleed like this.”
“Jorgie,” I said in my usual gentle voice.
“Yes, yes, I’m listening, Christine,” Jorgie responded eagerly, raising his eyebrows at Hansen.
