After remembering the hospital address, Adelaide hung up the
phone and started drawing.
Until lunchtime, she took a taxi to the hospital.
She walked into the ward wearing a mask.
Leonard was in the room by the window, with both arms and his right leg in casts, and half of his face swollen.
He was eating, but his hand was not convenient, feeding spoon
by spoon into his mouth was difficult, plus his mouth couldn’t
open too wide.
Adelaide was just a sight for sore eyes.
It seemed like Leonard noticed and looked up.
He was about to say hello when Adelaide raised her arm to stop
him, “No need to say hello.”
Leonard didn’t hesitate, nodded, and kept eating.
“I haven’t eaten for two days,” he said with difficulty.
“Well, you eat, I’m not in a hurry!”

“Things, drawers.”
Adelaide turned around, opened the drawer, and found a voice recorder lying inside.
“I’m listening,” said Leonard. After saying these few words, he
didn’t feel like talking anymore and focused on drinking his porridge.
Adelaide clicked on the recording and put it to her ear.
It was the sound of Amanda’s joy.
“I really don’t understand why Dad and my brother insisted on
keeping that bitch Adelaide in the Pierce family. Dad even went
so far as to delete her blood type information from the DNA
database.”
“After all, she grew up in the Pierce family since she was a child. Your parents put a lot of effort into her. Giving her away for
free, they must be reluctant.”
“Hmph, if it weren’t for being replaced, she’s nothing, enjoying
what originally belonged to me.“”
“Now it’s not back in your hands.”
“But she’s still here! As long as she stays with the Pierce family,
it makes me look like a useless waste of space!”

“Then kick her out.”
“Of course we have to hurry!”
After listening to the brief conversation, Adelaide felt like she
had fallen into a deep pit, with countless tentacles wrapping around her, suffocating and unable to move.
Not noticing her reaction, Leonard turned his head to observe
her.
He saw the woman’s face pale and lifeless, like her soul had
already left. He furrowed his brow, as if he hadn’t expected her
reaction to be so intense.
“Hello?” he called out to her with some force.
Adelaide’s eyelashes fluttered, and when she came to, that face
still had no expression.
She asked, “Do you have a lot of similar recordings?”
Leonard was taken aback by her unusually calm and puzzled at
the moment, feeling that this woman was really hard to figure
out. He didn’t hide it and nodded.
“I paid for it, you give me a price in one go.”
He shook his head.

Adelaide frowned and said, “You didn’t have money now!””
Leonard said, “Give once, collaborate, not long–term.”
Adelaide was also puzzled by him, asking the question in her
mind, “Do you really like Amanda?”
He didn’t say, but his eyes said it all.
Adelaide leaned back in the chair and said, “She almost took
your life this time.”
“This was my business.”
Love, he was a fool.
But she also thought it was pretty incredible, even though it
was like this, she could still like it.
She didn’t want to stay any longer, got up and said, “I’ve already
paid for your hospital expenses and arranged for a caregiver. I
look forward to your next recording. Here’s my number.”
She left a note and then she left.
Leonard didn’t look away until her back was completely out of sight, then slowly and with difficulty, he put the note under the
pillow.
