Chapter 62 Coward
Jack couldn’t laugh at once. He looked at her like a child who made mistakes, obedient and innocent.
For a moment, Andy even felt that she had returned to six years ago. He was still so innocent and harmless, and she was still his follower. She would follow him wherever he went.
But it was only for a moment. She knew clearly that everything had changed and no one could go back to the past.
“Why don’t you perform the operation?” Asked Andy coldly.
“Will you see me again after the treatment?” Said Jack.
“No, I won’t.” Said Andy straightforwardly.
“Well, I know it.” Jack smiled bitterly, “so, there is no difference between treatment or not. Anyway, I will feel terrible to death if I can’t see you. I will die sooner or later. It doesn’t matter.”
“Really?” Andy sneered, “then tell me, why are you still living well since we haven’t seen each other for six years?”
Upon hearing this, there was a frown on his handsome face. He frowned in pain, which was hard to hide his embarrassment.
“Can’t you speak it out?” Andy pointed at his chest and said coldly, “because you always know that you are a selfish and timid coward. You love yourself most!”
“No! I didn’t! I didn’t!” Jack was so agitated that the veins on his neck were clear. “You don’t know at all that I’m not you. I’m just an adopted child. My life was given by Lucy. I can never stand on the opposite side of her, never!”
“But I’m standing there!” Perhaps influenced by his emotion, Andy also lost control and roared.
Then she realized something was wrong and lowered her voice. “I’m on the opposite side of Lucy, just like you can never be against Lucy. Jack, I will never reconcile with Lucy. We really can’t be together.”
It seemed that she had experienced the pain again. She was exhausted physically and mentally. She reached out to lift up the falling hair and said to him, “life is your own. I have done what I should do. I have been very kind to you. As for whether to do the surgery or not, it’s up to you.”
She was very clear that she couldn’t be the savior, and she didn’t want to do it either. At this point, it was a return to their previous friendship.
After saying that, she simply tidied up her clothes and walked towards the door.
Jack had never seen her so cold. He always thought that even if he was a leave without a root, she would still be stubborn and simple to support him.
But at this moment, he clearly sensed that the bottoms that were constantly wrapped around him were missing. The leave was rapidly falling into the abyss!
“Don’t go, Andy!” Jack grabbed her wrist and pleaded hastily, “don’t leave me alone. I’ll do the surgery. Don’t give up on me.”
In the end, Andy’s heart softened.
She sighed and said helplessly, “no one can give up on you except yourself.”

After the escape, Bill didn’t make any trouble.
A week later, the operation was successful.
When Jack woke up, the first thing he said was, “Annie, can we still be friends in the future?”
This time, Andy didn’t refuse anymore and nodded slightly.
Sometimes, when it came to lovers or ordinary friends, she would accept them differently. It was just like now, when she became the most familiar friend with Jack, she would not blame him so much.
let me go, she thought.
After leaving the hospital, Andy was about to take a taxi home.
Anyway, she had asked for a day’s leave. The rest of the time, she went back to accompany the children, and also bought some school supplies. She felt sorry for the six children all counting on Jane.
But she was really unlucky today. When she came here in the morning, it took her half an hour to wait for the car, but there was still no car.
Fifteen minutes later, a jeep slowly stopped beside her.
The car window was rolled down, and the tall and strong figure of Edward shocked her.
Different from the previous times, he only wore a black T-shirt and a pendant with a cross on his chest. Although he was handsome enough to attract attention, the perfect muscle line was still eye-catching.
“Mr. Gu.” Said Andy.
Edward directly turned off the engine and unfastened the seat belt to get out of the car.
“Miss. Jane, here you are.” Edward said as he handed a black plastic bag to her.
“What’s this?” Looking at the simple and crude plastic bag, Andy hesitated and didn’t dare to take it directly.
“Last time you fell into the river with Bill. It was found in the salvage car. His assistant has taken it away. The rest should be yours. I happened to have something to do here, so I brought it to you.” Edward said and pushed the plastic bag again.
It was not until then that Andy took it over and opened it. It was her lost wallet and cell phone. The cell phone could no longer be used, but she had changed a new one. It didn’t matter much and the card was not broken. It was a perfect return.
“Thank you.” Andy put the things into her bag and thanked him repeatedly.
“It’s not a big deal. Oh, by the way.” As if remembering something, Edward turned around and took out a delicately packaged box from the back seat. “This is the latest model of the simulated shooting game I have played before. The first child is very interested in shooting. I think he will like it.”
Then he put the box into her hand.
In the past few years, Andy was quite familiar with the brand of children’s toys. When she saw the brand logo with golden edge, she quickly refused, “no, No. This is too expensive, Mr. Gu. I can’t take it.”
“No, I’ve bought IT. It’s for the kid. It’s just a toy. It’s not worth much.” Edward raised his hand. There was no reason for him to give a gift back.
“I really can’t.” Seeing that Edward didn’t accept, she put it back into the car through the window and breathed a sigh of relief. “Well, it’s ok.”
Edward was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. He had no choice but to give up, “well, ok. Forget it. . If you want to go home, I’ll drive you home.”
Are the special forces so idle?’ she wondered?
“No, thanks. I remember that I have an appointment. I have to go to the commercial street. I’m not on the same way, so I don’t need to bother you.” She lied on purpose.
“Well, in that case, I’m leaving now. See you later.”
Edward didn’t insist. He got on the car and drove away.
Andy followed his car and looked into the distance, with a hint of sadness in her eyes.
Was it because Edward was too enthusiastic with them? Or was it because the son of the wealth was spending money like water and giving thousands of dollars to others?
She instinctively didn’t like his enlarged “the first child face”, let alone his special attention to the child.
From now on, I’d better stay away from him,’ thought Andy.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
