Chapter 13

I didn’t go home that night.

Instead, I curled up on a bench at the hospital and slept the night there.

When I woke up the next day, I had a high fever.

My phone didn’t ring at all the whole night. Michael didn’t call me a single time.

“Heartthrob…” Sitting on the bench, I called Fredrick. “I’ve thought about what you said about studying abroad.”

“Stephie, are you unwell?” Fredrick asked in concern when he heard something was off with my voice.

“Yeah. I got caught in the rain yesterday, so I have a cold today.”

“Where are you? I’ll bring you some medicine.” Fredrick was anxious.

“Heartthrob, if I submit my application today, how soon can I leave the country?” I was in a hurry.

At that moment, I actually had a feeling that if I didn’t leave soon, I might die.

I might die in Michael’s hands.

I wanted to live well. I wanted to leave Michael.

Once I left, everything would be over.

“If you apply now, you’ll receive the application result in two months. I’ll ask the management to expedite it. Once we have confirmation, I’ll help you get the tickets.”

Fredrick was still worried. “Is your cold bad? Shall go pick you up?”

“It’s fine, Heartthrob, I’m at the hospital. Thank you.”
