Chapter 129: I'll Show You What A Real Bastard Is Like
Feeling depressed, Zac let out a long sigh.Raising his head, he glanced at the lump on the bed before pursing his lips and turning around unhappily.That's when he heard Patricia's voice calling out to him.
"Zac?" Patricia and Dora, who were standing at the end of the corridor, looked at Zac curiously.
Then Dora waved at Zac excitedly and happily said, "Mr.Reynolds, you're here!"
As she spoke, Dora couldn't help but giggle at Patricia.She had seen it clearly for the whole night.
Patricia had been looking at the door to her room gloomily as if she was expecting specific someone to suddenly come in.
She had even gone so far as to ask Dora to escort her on a walk.
But Dora knew she was only doing this to see if Zac had arrived.
Upon seeing Patricia, Zac walked up to her quickly and glared at Dora with displeasure in his eyes.
Then looking Patricia up and down, he said sternly, "Do you not know about your own physical condition? Why didn't you stay in the ward?"
He couldn't help but clench his fists as he spoke.Frowning, he stared at Patricia, a mixture of anger and concern flashing across his eyes.
‘I really can't understand what this woman is thinking.” She knows that her health is in poor condition, yet she's out here walking.
"I..." Patricia glared at Zac with dissatisfaction.
The excitement she had felt a moment ago upon seeing him suddenly disappeared, leaving only a touch of displeasure inside her.
‘What is Zac doing here? Has he only come here to argue with me?' Zac became furious as he saw her disgruntled expression.
Taking a deep breath, he was about to say something when Dora suddenly chimed in, saying, "Mr.Reynolds, you misunderstand the situation.Miss Patricia has gotten the doctor's permission to walk along the corridor to speed up her recovery process.Besides, I'm with her all the time, so there's no need to worry."
Dora forced a smile on her face, fearing that she might have said something wrong that would irritate both of them.
"Shut up!" they both shouted at Dora in unison as they both glared at her.
Dora immediately shut up, not daring to say a word.
Turning, she glanced at both Patricia and Zac.
Zac then turned his attention back to Patricia, and she, in turn, stared unhappily at him with fire in her eyes.
"As Dora has just informed you, I've gotten the doctor's permission to be out of my room.But why did you get angry with me before even finding out our reason for doing this?" Patricia glared at Zac discontentedly.
Then looking at Dora, she pleaded with her eyes, asking her to help her get back to the ward.
Hearing this, Zac looked at Patricia unhappily.
Depressed, he exhaled deeply before saying with a sullen face, "Stop! Ignoring Zac's words, Patricia signaled for Dora to ignore him and continue on their way.Zac became furious as he watched them walk past him. Clenching his fists, he roared, "Stop! Didn't you hear me?"
Hearing this, Dora couldn't help but nudge Patricia and asked in a low voice, "Miss Patricia, what should we do?"
Glancing at Dora, Patricia smiled reassuringly and said, "Dora, just ignore him.Let's go back quickly."
As soon as she finished speaking, Patricia stole a glance at Zac, her heart burning with rage. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
‘It is so frustrating having Zac lecture me as soon as we meet.’ Dora couldn't help snickering as she saw Patricia's expression.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Patricia was angry with Zac.
Turning around angrily and breathing heavily, Zac stared at Patricia's receding figure, unable to utter a word.
‘This woman is so hateful.It is rare for me to visit her in the hospital, yet she actually ignores me when I'm here.Can she be any more annoying?’ Zac suddenly walked up behind her and grabbed hold of her wrist tightly.
However, in so doing, his hand accidentally brushed against her back.
The pain that shot through Patricia at this contact caused her to let out a scream as tears instantly formed and cascaded down her face.
"Zac, you bastard!"
Even with all her pain, Patricia couldn't help but turn around to glare at Zac, her face full of anger and grievance.
Seeing her tears, Zac panicked.
Loosening his grip on her wrist, he pursed his lips and said cautiously, "Patricia, I didn't mean to hurt you.Are you all right?"
Looking at her guiltily, he wished he could inspect every inch of her body, from head to toe, to make sure she was alright.
"Am I alright? How can I be alright after that?"
Glaring at Zac angrily, Patricia couldn't help the stream of tears flowing down her cheeks, making her look more aggrieved and pitiful.
"I..." Zac wanted to say something, but his words were stuck to the back of his throat.
He realized that anything he said now would fall on deaf ears.
So, instead, he focused on determining Patricia's current condition.
"Where did you get hurt? Is it serious? I'll call the doctor for you."
Zac looked at her worriedly, a hint of distress flashing across his eyes.
Her tears were like invisible knives stabbing his heart.
Hearing his questions, Patricia glared at Zac unhappily and said fiercely, "I don't want your fake kindness!"
She then quickly turned her face away as she no longer wanted to speak to him.Zac was too angry to say anything when he heard this retort.Staring at her, he wanted to open her head to see what was init.
"You stupid woman!" he growled.
Zac couldn't control his temper anymore.Walking up to her, he grabbed her wrist before squatting down and wrapping his arm around her.
Lifting her up, he made his way over to the examination room without any further discussion.
Zac was intent on having the doctor check on Patricia.
Her scream moments earlier had worried him so much he was fearful he had accidentally touched her wound.
He wouldn't be at ease unless he heard directly from the doctor that everything was okay with her.
Patricia couldn't help but shriek at Zac's sudden action.
Hitting his chest angrily, she said, "Zac, put me down, you bastard!"
Angrily, he said, "Shut up, or I'll show you what a real bastard is like!"
He then cast a cold and stern glance at her as if he was staring at his prey.Patricia was alarmed when she saw that look in Zac's eyes.
She could tell that he wasn't joking with her.
If she really contradicted him, Zac would definitely punish her! Realizing this, Patricia immediately shut up as she stared at Zac unhappily.
When he saw the look in her eyes, he pursed his lips with displeasure before smiling.
Compared with Patricia's constant opposition, he would rather see her obediently shut up like this.
That made things a lot easier for him.
