That’s when I finally realized some people only care about profit, not feelings. Maybe selfishness really did run in the blood.
My heart suddenly grew calm, the sadness fading away.
Ignoring my mother-in-law’s shouting, I grabbed my car keys and hurried to the hospital.
As soon as I reached the second floor, I saw Raline walking toward me, arm in arm with Hudson, looking shy.
When our eyes met, a quick panic and embarrassment showed on Raline’s face, then she turned aside and coughed.
“What happened to your head?” she asked coldly.
“Just look at you! A grown man and you still manage to get your head bleeding. If you had even a bit of your brother-in-law’s ability, I wouldn’t have to work this hard.”
My stare settled on Hudson beside her, my face cold, my eyes dark and heavy. That was when I knew I was no match for him; he was truly hard to read.
“Alright, go check on yourself. Don’t cause any more trouble.” Saying that, she quickly took Hudson’s arm, as if afraid of being tainted and walked away without turning back.
