Chapter 170 Going Home

After I sent Jack packing, I turned around and looked at Eric somewhat apologetically. "I'm sorry. You couldn't get a proper rest because of me."

Eric had been holding my hand since earlier. He tightened his grip when he heard what I said. He looked at me and shook his head solemnly. "It's fine. You don't have to apologize to me, ever."

A flutter stirred in my heart, and I gently withdrew my hand. "I still haven't bought food. I have to go now."

Then, I fled out of the ward. I seemed to have some inexplicable feelings for Eric.

Eric was finally discharged a month later. I took him home on the day he left the hospital. We had just stepped through the door when Mom and Dad approached us enthusiastically and gave him a concerned look.

"How are your wounds, Ric?" Dad asked with a concerned expression. When he gazed at me, there was an accusatory look on his face. "Jae didn't tell me you got hurt because of her. I didn't find out about it until yesterday."

Eric smiled politely and explained on my behalf, "It's not her fault, Mr. Brown. I asked her not to say anything to you and Mrs. Brown. It's just a minor injury anyway."

I stuck out my tongue before sweeping my eyes across the place. Jack and Elsa were nowhere to be seen.

"Where are they?" I asked in a puzzled tone.
