Chapter 198 He was left alone
“I don’t like your attitude. I know you were bullied at work, but don’t take it out on me.” Ben Hawk
frowned and glared at Vivian impatiently, “You and Joey are sisters. Joey is a good cook. Why can’t
you? Why don’t you take a look at yourself? How do you get mad at me?” This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
He regretted very much that he had chosen Vivian over Joey.
Vivian was furious that he had compared her with her sister. The most hated thing in her life was a
comparison between Joey and her, because the conclusion would always be that she wasn’t as good
as Joey. It was a forbidden topic for her.
Therefore, Vivian was really pissed off and yelled at Ben Hawk, “Now you regret it, don’t you? I’m
telling you, I regret it, too. I must have lost my mind when I chose you. Look at yourself. You’re neither
rich nor powerful. You resigned as the business manager in the Walter Group because of this incident.
Now you’re absolutely good for nothing.”
She picked up her handbag and walked toward the door.
“Vivian, you seduced me and you’re now pushing me away.”
Ben Hawk was angry, but Vivian didn’t even look back at him. He wished that he could stop her and
grab her by the collar.
However, with his leg in a thick cast, he couldn’t possibly move around. He finally grabbed the fast food
and chicken soup on the table nearby and threw them at the back side of Vivian’s head.
“Ouch…” Vivian screamed. She was covered with food all over.
Fortunately the chicken soup had become less warm on her way to the hospital, or her pretty face
would have been ruined by a bowl of hot soup.
“Ben Hawk, why don’t you go to hell? I’ve brought you meals and given you a sponge bath every day
ever since you came to the hospital. You ungrateful bastard! How could you do this to me? Go to hell!”
She wiped the soup off her face and turned around to hit him with her handbag like crazy while
screaming at him angrily.
“Ah…stop it, you crazy woman! I’m badly injured already…ouch…”
With two of his ribs broken, Ben Hawk had been recovering very well, but he was still too weak to exert
his strength without feeling excruciating pain. Thus he could do nothing but let out screams of pain
when Vivian got ballistic.
His cry drew the attention of a nurse.
“He’s a patient. How could you hit a patient? A family member or friend of the patient should take care
of him, not hit him. Stop it!”The nurse hurriedly stopped Vivian and said seriously.
“Yes, he’s a patient. So what? Is that such a big deal? Don’t you see what he did to me? I’ve covered
with food all over. It seems to me that he’s lost his mind!”
Vivian pushed the nurse away and hit Ben Hawk hard in the leg in the plaster cast. Then she turned
around and rushed out of the room.
“Ouch!” Ben Hawk hadn’t expected that Vivian would hit his broken leg so hard and brutally. He
screamed in pain and the upper half of his body bounced so hard and he suddenly sat up with cold
sweat on his forehead. He pointed his fingers at Vivian’s back and choked with anger.
The nurse felt sorry for him and called the doctor at once.
Fortunately Vivian’s attack didn’t do much damage to Ben Hawk’s broken leg, but the pain would linger
for quite some time.
Ben Hawk was left alone in the room when the doctor and the nurse were gone.
He was angry, sore and hungry now.
He had ruined his lunch, and he was starving.
He took out his phone and tried to call his many other girlfriends.
He decided to call his former assistant at the Walter Group Jillian first. But always a very enthusiastic
lover as Jillian, she was surprisingly cold to him on the phone. The reason was quite obvious. He was
no longer the business manager at the Walter Group, so there was no need for Jillian to suck up to him
as his assistant now.
Then he called his second, third, fourth girlfriend…who had slept with him when he was a healthy and
promising senior executive in a large company, as well as his so-called friends whom he had fooled
around with in the past. None of them was willing to pay him a visit in the hospital or bring him any food
on various excuses of busy work, bad signal or dead battery.
It wasn’t until now that Ben Hawk realized how miserably he had failed. There was no one around
when he needed a girl or a true friend who could come to his rescue when he was desperate.
He suddenly missed Joey very much.
If he hadn’t cheated on Joey and fallen out with her, she would still be his girlfriend now. Joey would
never abandon him in the hospital, because she had always been a loyal and lovely girlfriend.
Ben Hawk sighed and closed his eyes.
He was sorry, but he wasn’t regretful.
As they say, one can’t make an omelet without breaking eggs. He believed that his current pathetic
situations were only temporary. With the huge sum of money he had extorted from Fiona and his
savings of all these years, he was confident that he could start his own career soon, which was why he
had taken the opportunity of the incident to quit his job at the Walter group.
