It turned out that the hatred would eventually be healed over time.
“Can we… still be together?” she murmured to herself.
Only silence answered her.
She sighed and was about to leave when a voice suddenly escaped from his mouth, “Kyla… Don’t leave me…”
Kyla was surprised. Then, she found out that Martin Weiss was still asleep. Words just slipped out of his mouth while he was asleep.
‘Don’t leave… Does he know how hard it is for me to make up my mind to say yes to those two words?’
Kyla was discharged the next day. Grace and Lina came to pick her up.
While helping Kyla pack up, Martin Weiss also stood by Kyla’s side, even intending to help her get into the car.
Grace ultimately said, “Chairman Weiss, we won’t lose Kyla. We’ll make sure that we send her to the store safely. Don’t worry.”
“Alright, I’m going home. Rest well in the hospital. I’ll come and visit you,” Kyla said to Martin Weiss.
“Okay,” he replied obediently like a good student.
However, when Kyla was following Grace and Lina into the elevator, Martin Weiss suddenly hugged her and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, “I’ll wait for you.”
She froze, and he quickly loosened his arms. “Alright, get in the elevator.”
Kyla bit her lip slightly and entered the elevator with her ears burning.
What he just said was like a promise. A… promise that he would be waiting for her!
‘But is he waiting for me to visit him in the hospital? Or is he waiting for me to make up my mind? Is he waiting for me to tell him if I want to be with him…’
As the elevator doors closed slowly, Lina quipped, “Kyla, you’re blushing. Things between you and Martin Weiss seem a little different from before.”
Kyla said somewhat sheepishly, “Alright, stop making fun of me.”
“Martin Weiss saved Kyla this time. She must be grateful,” said Grace.
“Just grateful? Come to think of it. Martin Weiss seems okay. No matter what, he still risked his life to save Kyla,” said Lina.
The three people chatted as they exited the elevator and walked toward Grace’s car.
After getting into the car, Grace asked, “Kyla, what are you going to do about Martin Weiss?”
As her best friend, she could see how differently Kyla treated Martin Weiss now. After all, if Martin Weiss had suddenly hugged Kyla back then, Kyla would have pushed him away immediately instead of blushing.
Kyla hesitated slightly and said, “He… wants to start over with me and become a real married couple. He wants me to think about it.”
She did not keep it a secret from her two best friends.
Lina immediately looked curious. “Kyla, are you going to say yes?”
Kyla said, “I don’t know. After all these years, I don’t know if I should be with him anymore.”
For the first time in years, she was hesitating.
Grace said, “Kyla, you should ask yourself whether you still love Martin Weiss. I think being with someone is never about whether we should or not but whether we love them.”
Lina said, “Yeah, Kyla. Martin Weiss must really love you, so it all depends on whether you love him or not. If you still love him, you might as well give each other a chance. You can separate if you’re really not right for each other. At least you won’t regret it.”
Kyla smiled sadly. “But I’m scared that… if we separate again after getting back together, I won’t be able to get over it like last time.”
“Are you scared of Martin Weiss betraying you again and causing you harm?” asked Lina.
Kyla was silent, but the silence meant that Lina had gotten it right.
Lina said, “It depends on whether you believe in his feelings for you. If you do, I think you might as well take a chance. Life has always been a gamble anyway. You never know what your life is going to be like until the end of it. That was what I was thinking when I got together with Hadwin. It’s better to just do it than hesitate. At least that’s how you won’t regret it in the future!”
Kyla looked at Lina with some surprise. It was at this moment that she realized that Lina was far more insightful than she thought.
Among the three of them, Lina seemed to have experienced the least hardships, so she was also the most optimistic. However, compared to Kyla’s hesitation and Grace’s overthinking, Lina was the wisest and most decisive person!
Grace said, “Kyla, you said you’re scared of not being able to get over it if you two separate again…
Doesn’t this… mean that your love Martin Weiss? You’re even scared of loving him so much. more than you did the first time. That’s why you’re worried that you can’t get over it if it happens again, aren’t you?”
Kyla paused. ‘Do I… love Martin Weiss?’
She tried to deny it but could not utter the words.
She asked herself if she loved him. If she did not love him, why was she so heartbroken when she saw him cutting his neck repeatedly and lying on the operating table?
Kyla did not answer, and Grace and Lina did not ask any further questions.
Once the car arrived at the store, the two got off with Kyla. Before leaving, Lina said, “Kyla, we won’t interfere in whatever you decide. You have to decide what to do with your feelings yourself. But no matter what happens, Grace and I will be here for you. We’re happy for you if you’re happy. If you’re upset, we’ll help you vent your feelings. If you’re facing troubles, we’ll get through them together!”
Kyla’s eyes reddened, and her nose felt sore.
family. We’ll face everything together, so don’t hesitate too much sometimes. Just follow your heart!”
‘Follow my heart?’ Kyla thought of those words after Lina and Grace left.
‘My heart…’
Just then, Mrs. Corbyn walked over, looked at her daughter, and said, “Oh, you’re discharged from the hospital now, so you’re finally safe. It’s all thanks to Martin Weiss! Jacqueline Bowman is such a mean person. I was even grateful to her before. I thought she was a nice person!”
