Chapter 72: The Cure
Chapter 72: The Cure
After watching Vivian leave in another man's car, Hanley kicked the car angrily.
It seems that after meeting Vivian, he easily loses his mind.
Looking at Holden and Vivian's figure, Hanley got into the car with an angry face, tapped the steering
wheel, and finally drove the car and chased after them.
Holden did not dare to drive particularly fast, he eyed ahead for a while, and then peeked at the tired
Vivian face.
He said with a tentative tone: "Vivian, I'd better take you to the hospital for a little treatment, right?"
Holden just got into the car, fastened the seat belt, he was just about to take out his phone to search for
the nearest hospital when Vivian told him that she wanted to go straight home.
Because of her insistence, Holden had to agree, but looking at the red and swollen look of her
forehead, he was really uneasy.
"It looks really swollen, it's better to go see a doctor! It's good to have the nurse rub some medicine on
it for you."
Holden wanted to beat Hanley to the ground right then and there, but he cared more about Vivian's
feelings than that.
Vivian forced a smile, she shook her head, said: "No, a little rubbing at home will be fine, nothing
serious, do not worry too much. It just looks serious, but it doesn't really hurt at all." ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
She tried hard to show that she was really fine, holding on to a smile. Compared to the hurt in her
heart, this was really nothing. For Vivian, nothing hurt more than Hanley's words and actions.
Although Vivian wants to hide in a corner and lick her wounds silently, she can't because she doesn't
want others to see the wounded her.
So she can only try to keep her smile in front of Holden, try to make her look as if she is really fine.
More so because she didn't want to worry people who didn't matter, and there were things that she
might feel better licking her wounds in silence than being comforted by others.
"Sorry, I may not be in much of a mood to go out for a late dinner with you today. I have to trouble you
to take me back, when I'm well rested, I'll definitely treat you to a delicious meal."
Vivian looked at Holden somewhat apologetically, she tried to make her look as calm as possible, and
pretended to joke about it.
Only Vivian didn't know that Holden actually knew her character a long time ago, and knew even better
that she was just pretending now.
But since she wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, Holden would not be foolish to say so.
He said in a more relaxed tone: "We are friends, if you are so strange with me, I will be angry. But I'll
make a note of the treat, and I won't let you get away with it."
Holden knew that his words were not going to make Vivian feel better. But there was nothing he could
do except to make the atmosphere a little more pleasant.
Vivian smiled and didn't say anything else. She leaned against the window and closed her eyes. It
looks like she is tired and resting, but in fact her brain is more awake than ever.
Looking at such a Vivian, Holden felt powerless. Obviously these days their relationship has
progressed, but her heart wall is still so high, still blocking him out.
For Vivian's heart, Holden can not do anything, but at least he can do to make her a little more
comfortable.
Open the player, Holden clicked on the 'favorite' song list, hoping that listening to these tracks, Vivian's
mood can be a little better.
Vivian and Hanley's affair, he always knew, but as two years ago, he still could not do anything. He
could only speed up and send her home to rub her medicine, he could only be with her in silence.
Closing her eyes, Vivian secretly dropped a tear and gripped her collar hard, hoping to ease the
depression brought on by her heart.
The song in Holden's car sounded like a kind of salvation, allowing Vivian to slowly relax. Eventually
giving her over to the music, she drifted off to sleep.
When he arrived, after Holden stopped the car, he realized that Vivian had fallen asleep against the
window.
He painfully stroked Vivian's forehead and helped her gently ruffle those broken hair.
Looking at Vivian's sleeping appearance, Holden suddenly did not want to wake her up, but he was
concerned about the wound on her forehead.
Holden hesitated, but Vivian finally made the decision for him.
Vivian opened her hazy eyes, and she rubbed them gently for a while before saying, "Are we there
yet?"
Seeing that Vivian had already woken up, Holden didn't have any hesitation and smiled lightly, "Yes, I
didn't expect you to really fall asleep, I just wanted to get you up."
As soon as things came to a head, Vivian was fond of touching her forehead, and when she wasn't
paying attention, she poked her red and swollen area with force.
"It hurts ......"
Vivian's tears of pain came out.
Holden anxiously came closer, grabbed Vivian's hand and said, "Knowing that your forehead is
swollen, and still so hard, do you think you are not afraid of pain?"
Because Holden was so focused on Vivian's forehead, he didn't notice how intimate his actions were
now.
Vivian was a little embarrassed to step back a little, and only after she felt that the distance between
them would not be too close, Vivian said, "I was a little sleepy."
She touched her head with embarrassment, she also did not expect her to fall asleep so quickly.
Normally, even if she was tired, she wouldn't fall asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.
She looked at Holden with some curiosity, "What are the names of your songs? It's so comfortable to
listen to, I feel relaxed after listening to it."
The original is still some depressed feeling, but after listening to these songs, Vivian feel spacious
heart. She used to listen to music alone in a corner, but none of the songs had such healing power.
For Vivian's action of taking a step back, Holden knew very well.
Although it hurt, but he acted as if nothing had happened, following Vivian's words to answer: "That is a
series of healing music given to me by my friend, if you like it, go back and I will pass it to you."
In fact, this is after knowing Vivian's health condition, Holden deliberately went to his college friend to
ask for it. I always wanted to find an excuse to give it to her, but I never thought today would be an
opportunity.
"I heard my friend say that this is the most healing music, listening to it will feel very soothing. If you are
in a bad mood, listen to it for a while and you will be able to calm down your emotions." Holden made
some more explanations, "I think I heard that there is also the efficacy of treating insomnia, if you have
more difficulty falling asleep, you can try to see."
The original just like these music, after listening to Holden so introduced, Vivian more like.
