Chapter 198 I’m Happy If She’s Happy

It was unseasonably warm. The night breeze was both hot and dry. Errol was sitting quietly on a bench in the hospital yard, smoking a cigarette.

He reached into the case to take another cigarette when the last one burned out. However, the case was already empty. The ashtray on top of the trashcan was already full of cigarette butts.

Errol pulled his hair, frustrated. Then, someone offered him a cigarette. He stood up abruptly when he saw who it was and signed, “Greetings, Cedric.”

“There’s something on your mind.” Cedric stood next to him and said firmly. He knew Cedric was not well–versed in sign language, so he took out his phone and started typing.

“What made you say that?”

“You know the answer,” Cedric said coldly.

Errol took a sharp breath and typed, “No. I’ve nothing to say.”

Cedric sneered. “So much for your love for Celia.”

“What about your love for Maia? You hurt her so badly in the past! You know all too well how much pain she went through!”

Cedric said sharply, “I cherish her now more than ever because of what happened in the past!” Losing her once made him realize just how much she meant to him. She was worth more to him than his own life.

He was happy as long as she was happy. It was just that simple.

Errol lowered his head and put out his cigarette.

Cedric saw the way he acted. “I hope you won’t regret it,” he said, before turning to leave.

Errol stood up and blocked Cedric when he heard what he said. He couldn’t speak, but he signed rather aggressively, “Wait a minute.”

Then, he took his phone out and typed swiftly, “There’s something I need to say, Cedric. You and Maia should know about it! You were right. I can’t afford to have regrets.

“I have the power to do something for Celia. I can’t just remain quiet now. I love her. I have to protect her!”

Cedric stopped. He saw how fast Errol was typing on his phone and realized that he had made
