Wendy, who was sitting in the taxi, was stunned.
Yes, she went to the hotel yesterday afternoon to find Dolly. Then, she suddenly knew the fact which she was the least willing to face in her life.
In fact, she could harshly question Dolly-For so many years, Dolly and Conor had always claimed that she was the only child. But why did she have a half-blooded brother? And it was Gavin.
However, the family, after all, had to enter the same house. For the sake of the overall situation, Wendy must feign the calmness she had when she was in the operating room.
Wendy quickly cleaned up the bad mood and smiled lightly,"Yes, I have something to tell you, so I went to find you. But I was lying in bed for half an hour, and you didn't come back, so I left."
Dolly was a little perturbed and asked, "You've been waiting for me in the hotel room all the time?"
"Well," Wendy was casual, and there was a hint of disgust in her tone, trying to divert Dolly's attention. "In the end, a hotel is a hotel, with just a living room and a bedroom. I'm lazy; where can I go except the bedroom?"
Dolly once suspected that Wendy might have discovered Gavin's information, but from Wendy's tone, she could not hear any traces.
Dolly slowly relaxed and explained, "I had something to do yesterday, so I was out with a friend. Is there something important that you want me to do? Or... we can have lunch together. Why don't you tell me about it later?"
"I'm an intern. I don't have time to go out for lunch at noon." Wendy pretended to think for a moment, and then said seriously, "I'll tell you on the phone when there's a traffic jam."
Dolly nodded and said, "Alright."
"In fact, it is not very important." Wendy sighed and said, "I just suddenly realized that you are right."
Dolly found a place to sit down and carefully asked, "What I said is right?"
"You said that I will not be happy with Gavin." Saying that, Wendy's tone became angry. "I have already figured it out, he doesn't like me at all! He just feels that I am fresh and teased me for fun. He has never thought of responsibility!"
Dolly,"... So?"
"That's why I've decided not to like him anymore!" Wendy snorted haughtily. Then, she spoke in a tone as if nothing had happened. "Actually, if you think about it carefully, I might not like Gavin. He's handsome, high-classed, and good at flirting. He just likes to deal with girls all the time. It's normal for my heart to beat so fast like it's out of control when I'm tempted by him. I admit that I'm interested in him, but actually... it's not to the point where I like him or love him. Probably it's because I've never loved anyone before, that's why I mistook him as love."
"Fortunately, I have figured it out now!"
Wendy said a lot, and every sentence was what Dolly wanted to hear, and every sentence was enough to make Dolly let go of the guilt in her heart.
But it was because of this that Dolly became suspicious, "Wendy, why did you suddenly get over it? Did you... find something?"
"Well? Mom, why are you asking me if I found anything?" Wendy raised her tone as if she found a new continent, "Oh! Are you hiding something from me?"
Wendy was very relaxed and casual. Dolly could not be sure whether she had discovered Gavin's identity or not. So she had to deny,"You are so grown-up now. Did Mom ever hide anything from you? I am just really curious why you suddenly got over it."
"The reason is very simple." Wendy still said in an indifferent tone, "Mom, it's the 21st century now. I don't have the education of your age. For our generation, love is just like fast food. If you are full and tired, you can change to the next store at any time. True love and eternal pledges are rare."
Dolly did not agree with Wendy's words, but she still said, "I am very happy that you can figure it out." She had practiced over a hundred times in her mind on how to persuade Wendy to give up Gavin, while Wendy had figured it out herself. How could she not be happy?
"So, you don't have to worry about me." Wendy pretended to be calm and smiled. "Since Gavin is just teasing me, and I am not a cat, I don't care about him. However, mom, I was so excited when talking to you before, I'm sorry."
Dolly smiled and said, "You're still young. Mom won't blame you."
"Thank you, mom!" Wendy said in a surprise tone, "Oh, no. I'm about to arrive at the hospital. Mom, I need to go now!"
After that, without waiting for any response from Dolly, Wendy decisively hung up the phone, buried her face deep on her knees, and let the crazy tears wet her palms.
She had lived for so many years but only loved one person.
However, fate was playing a trick on her. She couldn't afford the consequences of being with this person, and she couldn't personally push Dolly and her father into the abyss of pain.
So it might be the best choice to pretend that she didn't care about him anymore and end the farce between her and Gavin as naturally as possible like it never happened.
"Girl, we haven't arrived at the hospital yet." The car was stopped at an intersection. The driver looked back at Wendy, "We are still away from the hospital..." Before he finished his words, he suddenly found that Wendy had buried her head on her knees, and her shoulders were twitching. Obviously, she was crying.
The driver was stunned and confused for a moment. "Are you all right, miss?" The girl had just said everything in a clear and logical way, so how could she cry so easily?
Wendy did not say anything, sobbed a few times, then shook her head and indicated that she was fine,"Master, you don't have to worry about me."
It was clear from her voice that she was suffering from a broken heart.
The driver understood more or less. What she had just said to her mother on the phone were all lies, but he was just a stranger after all, and it was not convenient to ask too much. So he could only silently send Wendy to the hospital.
Along the way, Wendy tightly pursed her lips and tried to stop herself from crying. She forced herself to take out the calmness and self-control of facing a major operation and forced down the feeling of cutting her heart.
She was very sad.
It was like being trapped in a narrow space, and at the same time, something was striking her heart heavily. Not only was she unable to breathe, but her heart was also hit so hard that it teetered.
However, she could not let herself indulge in this feeling. She must pull herself out as soon as possible. Otherwise, she could not hide the feeling from Dolly and Gavin.
Now, the only thing worth celebrating was that Dolly would take her feelings into consideration and would not tell her that Gavin was her brother in a short time.
At least she had a little time to completely digest this fact, and then at the moment when Gavin's identity was revealed, she could pretend to be shocked and surprised.
When they arrived at the hospital, Wendy first went to the bathroom, washed her face with clear water, took out some makeup from her bag, and used a flawless pen to cover up her sleepless mark.
After making sure that she could find no loopholes on herself, Wendy changed into a clean white coat and began the day's work.
Perhaps Wendy had trained herself to a professional level in the medical school. When facing the patients and all kinds of diseases, she could forget personal things, forget all the pain and forbearance, and also forget Gavin.
Therefore, when she got off work, Wendy offered to change her shift with her colleague who was on the night shift.
The words "night shift" was like a magic spell. For every doctor and nurse, it was a kind of torture. If someone was willing to change the shift, it would be like a free lunch falling from the sky.
Her colleague asked Wendy surprisedly, "Why do you want to change shifts with me, are you alright?"
"I have nothing to do today, but I have something to do tomorrow." Wendy made an excuse casually, "But I can't rest tomorrow, so I have to change shifts with you."
"Hey, what's up tomorrow?" The young colleague pretended to ask ambiguously, "Be honest, do you have to date the handsome guy who ordered breakfast for us last time, huh?"
Wendy subconsciously stopped her colleague from continuing. She pretended to be unhappy and said, "Why do you talk so much nonsense? Change or not, give me a word of answer!"
"Yes, yes!" The colleague happily took off the white cloak. "Then I'll go home first and bring you breakfast tomorrow!"
As for the so-called tomorrow, Wendy actually had no expectations, and she did not go to dinner at the diner in the restaurant. She stayed in the office and looked at the patient's information. In the end, she began to cooperate with the superior physician to start the night shift.
The night shift was very tiring, especially when she didn't rest well the last night. But no matter how tired she was, Wendy had to utilize all of her energy to take care of every patient's problem.
In this way, Wendy really got what she wanted, and she had no time to think about Gavin. Tomorrow when she went back, she could probably have a good sleep!
Wendy comforted herself, "You are awesome!"
The next morning, when her colleague rushed to the hospital with breakfast, she was frightened by Wendy's dark circles. She quickly stuffed soy milk and buns into Wendy's hands. "Look at your exhausted look. You must be tired. Go eat something and go back to sleep."
"I don't have an appetite; you should eat it." Wendy took off her white coat and grabbed her bag. "I'll get off work first."
After returning home, she took a simple shower and washed her face with water. Then, Wendy threw herself on the bed and fell asleep in less than half a minute.
Using one's physical energy to the extreme would indeed be helpful to one's sleep.
However, it was obvious that the drawbacks of this method were greater than the benefits.
Although she was asleep, Wendy's sleep was not very deep. There were some strange scenes continuously showing up in front of her eyes.
After careful identification, she recognized that those scenes were from the newly developed island owned by Lambert Group.
The only difference was that she and Gavin were the only two people on the island this time.
The sun, the beach, and the person she loved the most-this sentence just made her feel very comfortable.
But subconsciously, there was always a voice telling Wendy that it was not true. It was no longer possible for her and Gavin to be a couple.
Finally, Wendy woke up from a nightmare when the cell phone in her bag was ringing. She took it out and saw that the caller was Connell...
