Chapter 2910


    Deep down, Er was stewing in bitterness and despondency.


    He gritted his teeth, looked at Charlie, and said, "You better treat her well.


    Or else, I swear I won''t let you go." After Er had spoken hisst, he spun around and stormed out of


    the room.


    He couldn''t figure out what Charlie had that he didn''t, and most of all, he couldn''t understand why


    Patricia wouldn''t give him a chance, even when she wasn''t dating anyone.


    But since Patricia had made up her mind, Er knew he couldn''t change it.


    All he could do was respect her decision and quietly watch over her from a distance.


    If Charlie ever treated Patricia badly, Er was ready to step in and help her.


    “Hey, what did you just say —" Charlie began, but before he couldplete his sentence, Patricia had


    stopped him.


    "It''s fine," she said.


    Charlie looked at Patricia with his brows raised, and after a moment of contemtion, he widened his


    eyes in surprise and asked, "Are you for real?" Patricia avoided his gaze, after which she firmly replied,


    "This is how it''s supposed to be." Both she and Er were fated to be from two different worlds.


    As such, it would be better for them to maintain their distance and keep the spark from igniting a me


    they would likely reduce their hearts to ashes.


    “Actually, I think you should leave too," Charlie told Patricia as he looked her in the eye.


    Charlie was the one who had reminded Patricia to keep a distance from Er from the very beginning.


    Although he felt that he would not bea match for her, it was not because of his status.


    In fact, the entire reason as to why he disapproved of them getting together was that he thought their


    personalities were notpatible.


    As weeks passed, however, Er''s persistence and dedication to Patricia had only proved Charlie


    wrong.


    Thus, Charlie would take a step back and allow them to have their way if his sister did indeed have


    feelings for Er.

    Patricia shook her head.


    "No.


    I won''t leave." The act of leaving the organization was not without itsplexities, for Charlie would


    still be there, connoting that his life would always be in danger.


    Just the mere thought of it was enough to make Patricia shiver.


    Therefore, she was determined to remain in the organization with her brother to the very end.


    "Patricia, please..." Charlie began, wanting to persuade Patricia, but before he could, she had already


    changed the subject.


    "Charlie, it''s better for you to focus on your recovery.


    I will take good care of you," she said.


    Knowing that Patricia did not want to continue the conversation, Charlie sighed and kept his peace.


    At the end of the day, one must learn to make difficult decisions on their own.


    In this case, it was possible that Patricia did not like Er at all.


    Still, Charlie trusted that Patricia would eventually meet someone who could make her give up on a life


    of fighting and live as any person should, in happiness and in peace.


    “Patricia, you can stay.


    We''re leaving now." Nicole looked at Patricia and smiled, having figured that there was a whirlwind of


    emotions beneath her calm facade.


    "T''ll send them off," Patricia told Charlie, after which she followed Jared and Nicole out of the ward.


    “Take a breather." Nicole patted Patricia on the shoulder.


    Then, she linked arms with Jared and sauntered out of the ward.


    Patricia stared at Nicole from the back and began thinking of what she had just said.


    All of a sudden, her eyes began welling up with tears.


    Nicole had seen through her, and she was not as calm as she appeared to be.


    ‘Why?!’ Patricia thought.


    "This will only end in despair, so I''m not even going to start anything!" Her life, up until about a month


    ago, was progressing just as how she had imagined it would, but all of the hurt and sorrow she was


    feeling now was iprehensible to her.


    After all, she had made the best decision she could, and it was important for her to live by it so that


    nobody else would have to get hurt anymore.


    ‘That''s right.


    Everything happens for a reason.


    Perhaps, things will return to normal soon." Meanwhile, Er had not driven that far away from the


    hospital when he pulled over at the side of the road and spaced out, his eyes staring out to the


    mountains in the distance.


    ‘I just don''t understand...why does my heart hurt so much?'' he agonized.


    ''If she can be happy with someone else, I should be happy for her.


    But why do I feel sad? She must be in love with Charlie if she could take care of him so


    wholeheartedly.’ Er could tell that Charlie loved Patricia too, so much so that he was close to


    sacrificing himself to save Patricia.


    Thus, it would be safe to assume that they would be a perfect match if they were indeed together.


    All of a sudden, while Er was chest deep in his sea of painful thoughts, he heard a few knocks on his


    windshield.
