Destined to Love You novel Chapter 134

In the hospital.

Angelia woke up again but found herself in the hospital bed.

She rushed to sit up as soon as she opened her eyes.

Seeing her awake, the nurse who was adjusting her IV bottle hurriedly asked her to lie down.

"Mrs. Miller, you can't get up yet. You should rest for a while longer."

Angelia looked around. "Why am I here?"

"You fainted outside the operating room."

Angelia frowned. She seemed to remember that she had been waiting outside the operating room, and then she had gradually lost consciousness.

"What about him?"

She asked hurriedly, "Is the surgery done? Where is Jonathan?"

"Mr. Miller's surgery went well. However, he suffered severe burns to his back. He'll need to recuperate in the sterile ward for a while."

Hearing that Jonathan was okay, Angelia then breathed a sigh of relief.

"I see."

As soon as the nurse left, Angelia quietly removed the IV bottle and walked outside.

She walked through the corridor and to the outside of the sterile ward at the end.

She saw the man on the bed inside through the glass.

Because the burns were on his back, he had to lie down.

The oxygen machine and EKG were working rhythmically on the side, showing Jonathan's signs of life.

Angelia leaned over the window and watched the man inside carefully.

Jonathan happened to be facing her, so she could see his face. His eyes were slightly closed and he was sleeping quietly.

A couple of nurses walked by behind her. Seeing the patient in the ward, they discussed in low voices.

"I didn't expect Mr. Miller to be so affectionate. As soon as he heard his wife was at the fire, he went right in. Even those firemen couldn't stop him."

"Really? Didn't they say Jonathan was grumpy and cold? I didn't expect him to be so gentle with his wife."

"Of course. Didn't you know about what happened at the museum not long ago?"

"But fortunately, the fire was already small when he rushed in, or the consequences would have been disastrous."

"I heard from someone who was at the scene that he refused to come out later when the fire was out and kept looking for his wife inside. That scene, alas..."

Angelia stood in front of the glass window and listened as they talked and walked away.

She wasn't there at that time. But even just from what she'd heard from others, she couldn't imagine the scene.

Jonathan rushed into the fire for her.

Jonathan searched through the rubble for her.

His body had been burned, but he was still holding her.

Seeing her with Echo, he didn't get angry.

He said it was good that she were safe.

How could she leave Jonathan, who loved her so much?

How could she bear to tell him the truth?

Angelia watched the man in the ward from a distance and didn't move for a long time.

She didn't know how long she stood until someone came up behind her.

"Angelia."

Angelia looked up and saw Echo's reflection in the glass.

He took a glance at Jonathan in the ward and said to Angelia, "Angelia, someone wants to see you."

Angelia calmed herself down and turned around. Then she saw the man behind Echo.

The man was dressed in a black suit and looked a little older than Steward. His hair was combed back, and looked slightly short.

His eyes narrowed when he smiled, like an old fox.

"Miss Wilson, hello."

Angelia was stunned when he spoke. She looked at Echo subconsciously.

How could this man know who she was?

As if he could see what she was thinking, the man smiled and said, "Don't worry. I won't tell anyone about this."

Angelia looked at him warily.

"What are you up to?"

Angelia looked around, but there was no sign of Mason at all.

It was as if he had never shown up.

She looked at the card in her hand again and then Echo came over.

"Angelia, let's leave when you get better."

Angelia put the card in her hand away.

"I told you. I'm not leaving."

Echo frowned worriedly.

"You saw it yesterday. Claudia and Angela, they tried to kill you! Now the orphanage is burning down. Your pact with Randall has long since been nullified."

Angelia turned her head and her eyes were as determined as they had ever been.

"So I'm even more determined not to leave. I will not let the orphanage be burned in vain, and I will not let Mrs. Percy die in vain."

She clenched her fists.

The orphanage was burned because of her.

Mrs. Percy died because of her.

How could she leave?

Echo spoke up, "If you insist on staying, as soon as they tell Jonathan the truth, what will he do to you? By then, with the Millers, the Hunks, and Angela, how can you win?"

Seeing that Angelia didn't say anything, he reached out and took her by the hand.

"We can leave first and then come back when the time is right. When we find the evidence..."

"No way."

Angelia let go of his hand.

"I can't do it, Echo."

She paused, quickened her pace, and fled toward Jonathan's ward.

Before she could approach, Steward came running out of it. As soon as he saw Angelia, he said hastily, "Miss Wilson, Mr. Miller is awake!"

Angelia paused and then hurried to walk towards the ward.

Echo, who was walking last, felt as if a large stone had been placed in his heart as he watched her quickened pace and the joy on her face.
