However, we ultimately didn’t end up buying lothes.
Because as soon as we went out, we saw Vivian leaning against the well.
It looked like she had been waiting all night.

Beckett was shocked and pushed her, only to see Vivian open her eyes.
Seeing us together, looking like we were about to go out, she instinctively stood up and looked at me.
“Cora, I’m sorry, yesterday I…”
Vivian squinted at me, then suddenly closed her eyes and fell into Beckett’s arms.
“Vivian? Vivian?” Beckett’s expression changed as he held her and started shaking her.
I silently crouched down and pressed hard on Vivian’s philtrum.
Vivian’s body trembled slightly, but she endured and didn’t wake up.
I had to admire Vivian’s determination.
Seeing that I was about to do it again, Beckett’s hand holding Vivian paused for a moment, then avoided my hand.
“She’s malnourished and severely anemic. I’ll take her to the hospital.”
Beckett carried her and ran out without looking back.
I closed the door and unhurriedly followed.
I watched as Beckett anxiously stood guard by the bedside after the doctor left.
I walked over.
Beckett saw me and paused, frowning.
“Why did you come?” he said.
I looked closely at the person on the bed.
Actually, she wasn’t very pretty, and because of malnutrition, she looked thin and had high cheekbones, giving her a somewhat hars
Actually, she wasn’t very pretty, and because of malnutrition, she looked thin and had high cheekbones, giving her a somewhat harsh look.
I looked up at Beckett again.

Beckett avoided my eyes, feeling uncomfortable under my gaze.
I looked calmly at the two of them and spoke: “The day you submitted our marriage license application, she jumped into the river.”

Perhaps my words shocking, not only did the person on the bed violently shake.
Even Beckett instinctively stood up, knocking over the chair behind him.
He blurted out, “What?!”
I continued: “You gave her the money you were going to use to buy me jewelry. You said spending it on me was just wasting it carelessly, but giving it to her could cover her living expenses for half a year.”
I raised my hand to stop him from speaking, because it no longer mattered.
“During the few days I was away, you brought her home, letting her enter as if she belonged.”
Beckett’s mouth moved, but I raised my hand again.
Then I turned to look at the bed: “You knew she was faking unconsciousness, yet you still planned to stay here all night?”
I didn’t believe that Beckett, as a soldier, couldn’t tell she was pretending to be
unconscious.
“If
you
don’t want to get married, we can break off the engagement, but you can’t treat me like this.” I looked at both of them calmly and said again.
Hearing me mention breaking off the engagement seemed to finally panic Beckett: No, 1
Coula.
“We’re all friends, we should help each other!” Beckett’s voice was a bit loud, as if try hard to convince himself.
I saw tears fall from the corner of the eye of the person on the bed.
Tsk tsk.
I shook my head: “Whatever you say, I’m leaving first.”
As I walked to the door, Beckett’s voice came from behind: “You go home first, I’ll soon!”
