Chapter 305 Make Up for Her With Me
Kieran did not answer her question.
Instead, he said to himself, "Today is exactly eight years since she died."
She?
Before Alexa could react, Kieran picked up the bottle next to him.
She quickly snatched the bottle away, only to find that the glass shards on the side were stained with
dried blood.
In the blink of an eye, Alexa could not help but frown.
"Don't drink anymore. What do you want to do to yourself?"
"She was doing just fine. Suddenly, somehow, her body began to fail rapidly."
Alexa was stunned and listened to him speak.
"At that time, I chose to learn medicine to treat her, but I still failed to save her."
Kieran slowly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes full of pain and regret.
'When I pick up the scalpel, I'm omnipotent in many people's eyes, but I'm nothing..."
His voice gradually weakened.
"That night, she was lying in the bed in the ICU, and she was so skinny. I held her in my arms, feeling
her body turn cold bit by bit..."
The room was silent for a long time. Finally, Alexa moved her lips with some difficulty.
"Are you... OK?"
She carefully raised her hand and placed it on Kieran's shoulder, her heart filled with mixed feelings.
"You have already tried your best."
"I'm sorry."
Kieran met her gaze guiltily.
"From approaching you till sending you out of New York... It was all because..."
"It was all because you wanted to make up for her with me?"
Alexa said every word he wanted to say accurately, and Kieran stopped talking in an instant.
However, there was no displeasure in her eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I know. I know it all." Alexa's tone was utterly gentle. "So, thank you."
"I have nothing to be thankful for. People like me..."
"Enough."
Alexa interrupted him in time, stood up, and reached out to him.
"Get up. I'm going to the kitchen to cook."
Kieran was a little stunned, and he gawked at her.
"You ... are not afraid of me?"
"Why should I?"
"I have never dared to tell you that I'm suffering from manic depression. I'm sorry."
'Why should you be sorry?"
Alexa asked rhetorically in succession, completely confusing Kieran.
'Everyone has their own secrets. You are allowed to have secrets."
Kieran curled his lips slightly, held her hand, and stood up.
Seeing that he was fine, Alexa was a little relieved.
"Take a rest. I will call you when the food is ready."
"Let me," Kieran said instinctively. "You probably aren't used to cooking. I'm worried that you'll get hurt."
'I won't,’ Alexa subconsciously blurted out. "I learned a few things from Terrence. I'll be fine."
In an instant, the glimmer in Kieran's eyes disappeared.
He forced out a bitter smile and said, "Alright then. I'm going to take a shower."
Soon, the sound of water came from the bathroom.
Kieran stood under the shower, allowing the cold water to overwhelm him.
His body was almost covered in wounds. The blood trickled down his body until it was thin.
It was a shocking scene to see in the dim bathroom.
In the past few days, he had been suffering from manic depression, and he hated the light. Therefore,
the lights had been basically off.
Yet when Kieran changed his clothes and went out, the living room was bright.
Alexa put the last dish on the table and then filled two plates of pasta.
"Perfect timing. Dig in. See whether I can be a cook or not," Alexa greeted him warmly.
Kieran sat down in front of her and looked at the dishes in front of him carefully.
'They look great. Thank you."
"Don't mention it," Alexa said with a smile.
His thin lips, which had been tightly pursed, finally curved up slightly.
"I have already told Clara and Dr. Bisley so that they won't worry about you."
"OK."
Kieran nodded, looking no different from a well-behaved child.
He ate very politely and elegantly, but he never stopped eating. It seemed that he was really hungry.
"You haven't been eating properly these days, have you?"
"I don't have an appetite."
"Still, you've got to eat. You need to be responsible for your body," Alexa said earnestly.
"OK. I will remember."
Alexa tried her best to persuade him for a long time, and then she suddenly caught a glimpse of the
clock on the wall.
"It's already eight o'clock?"
She exclaimed in a low voice and immediately put down the fork. Then she picked up her phone.
In the next second, Alexa almost blacked out.
Terrence called her twenty times. Other than that, there were fifty unread messages.
Seeing that she was a little flustered, Kieran asked sincerely.
"Did something happen? Is there anything I can help you with?"
"It's fine..."
Alexa replied stiffly. She braced herself, took her phone, and went to the balcony.
"I'm going to take this."
After going to the empty yard, Alexa finally picked up the phone.
'Where are you?"
Terrence sounded a little unhappy, while at the same time, his anxiety was also obvious.
"I... am outside. I have something to attend to."
"Oh? What is it?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'm meeting up with a friend from college."
Alexa thought that her answer was flawless, yet Terrence chuckled.
"Silly," he said with a sigh. "Has anyone ever told you that you're really bad at lying?"
She didn't say anything.
"I know you're at Kieran's place. Come out. I'm at the door."
"You ... are at the door?"
'What is it? Are you surprised? Or are you saying that I can't be here?"
"Of course, you can."
Alexa smiled awkwardly and answered tentatively.
"Wait for me. I'll be there in a second."
"I have been waiting for you for an hour anyway. A while longer doesn't make any difference."
Terrence deliberately emphasized his last sentence. Alexa was startled and felt a chill down her spine.
She returned to the living room. Kieran seemed to have known her intention.
"Are you leaving?"
"Yes. He is waiting for me outside."
"OK."
He nodded and walked to the door with her.
"I'll send you off."
'Thanks, but no. Go back and eat. I'll go out myself."
Kieran's golden-brown eyes suddenly dimmed a little.
"I have caused you so much trouble today. I just want to do something that is within my power."
Seeing how fragile he was, Alexa felt bitter.
"You did not cause me any trouble. We are friends. This is what friends do. Besides, you have helped
me so many times," she smiled brightly.
Kieran sent her to the door as he wished just in time to see Terrence get out of the car.
"It's cold outside. Go inside. Bye."
As soon as Alexa finished speaking, Terrence pulled her into his arms firmly, his entire body filled with
hostility.
Kieran met Terrence's gaze. There seemed to be a smile in Kieran’s eyes.
