Chapter 3008


    In a rush, EIIar pushed open the car door and dashed into the rain.


    "Where are you going?" the chauffeur shouted, but Er didn''t answer, bing just a distant figure in


    the rain.


    He roamed the streets, hoping to spot Patricia, but her familiar form was nowhere in sight.


    "Patricia!" Er called, but received no reply.


    ''Where could she be in this big city? She doesn''t have many ces she usually goes.''


    Er tried hard to recall, but he couldn''t think of any specific locations. Patricia usually stuck to going


    between the office and her apartment, and he hadn''t noticed any unique hobbies or interests.


    Suddenly, it clicked for Er. "Of course, how could I forget?"


    ncing around, he identified a direction and started running.


    He remembered Patricia mentioning her dream ce was the amusement park, even though she never


    truly enjoyed it from childhood to adulthood.


    Considering the weather and the uncertain day, Er thought, ''She might just head there.''


    Atst, reaching the amusement park, Er spotted a solitary figure sitting on the ground, hugging her


    knees, leaning against the park''s gate, her eyes empty, resembling a homeless person.


    "Patricia!" Er hurried over and enveloped her in his arms." It''s pouring, why didn''t you seek cover?"


    Patricia slowly shifted her gaze to Er, taking a moment to recognize him. "Er, why are you here?"


    she asked, sounding a bit disoriented.


    Noticing the quiver in her voice, Er expressed concern," Aren''t you afraid of catching a cold, standing


    here in the rain?"


    "The park is closed," Patricia uttered slowly, her voice carrying a touch of sadness.


    Feeling a twinge of sorrow, Er hugged Patricia tightly. "It''s alright. We cane back and y


    another day. Let''s head home for now," he suggested, gently assisting her to her feet to bring her back


    home.


    Just as Patricia got up, she stumbled slightly, nearly falling back.


    Er promptly steadied her and insisted, "No, we need to go to the hospital."


    Without hesitation, Er lifted Patricia and rushed to the nearest hospital.


    When Nicole and the others arrived, Patricia had already received treatment, changed into a patient


    gown, and was on an IV drip.


    "I’m sorry for causing everyone to worry," Patricia apologized, aware that Lulu was concerned about


    her.


    "That''s not the main thing. Your health is what matters," Lulu insisted earnestly, her concern evident in


    her expression.


    "I''m okay now," Patricia said, biting her lip slightly.


    Nicole advised Patricia, "Don''t dwell on anything else for now. Concentrate on getting better, and we


    can discuss other matters once you''re discharged."


    Patricia nodded in agreement, but deep down, she had already decided not to proceed with the


    treatment. She couldn''t allow Er to sacrifice himself for her safety.

    Nicole detected a subtle shift in Patricia''s expression, understanding her thoughts, but recognized it


    wasn''t the appropriate time to address it.


    "You should head back; I''ll stay with her here," Martin suggested to Er, noticing he was still drenched.


    Despite Martin''s suggestion, Er hesitated to leave and shook his head. "I''ve already requested the


    driver to bring some clothes. They''ll be here soon."
