Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 384: Miss Yates Finally Woke Up

--

My head hurts, as if it’s splitting open, or like someone has thrown a bomb inside my brain.

Scarlett Yates never knew that something as simple as opening and closing her eyes could become so incredibly difficult.

She exerted great effort to finally lift her heavy eyelids.

At the moment she opened her eyes, the splitting headache became even more pronounced.

The pain was coming from the back of her head.

It felt like someone was tugging at her scalp, pulling hard, causing her to grimace and take a couple of sharp breaths.

The light competed to rush into her eyes.

The intense light forced her to close her eyes again, and only after a while did she cautiously reopen them.

Her eyes slowly adjusted to the brightness.

Her throat felt as dry as if it were on fire. She bit her equally dry lips and squeezed out a few words from her parched throat, "Is anyone there?"

As soon as she spoke, she was startled by her own voice.

When did her voice become so deep?

It was dry and coarse, like a drake calling, painfully unpleasant.

Did this voice really come from her mouth?

"Miss Yates, you’re awake?" The door was suddenly pushed open, and a young girl in a nurse’s uniform walked in.

Upon seeing Scarlett Yates awake, the young nurse cheered excitedly, "That’s great, that’s great, Miss Yates, you’ve finally woken up."

"Where is this place?" Scarlett Yates looked at the inexplicably excited young nurse, feeling confused.

The young nurse was holding a thermometer and a new IV bottle. She had come to replace Scarlett Yates’s IV and take her temperature again, originally expecting Scarlett Yates to sleep for a few more days. Suddenly seeing her awake, the young nurse was so excited and overjoyed that she set aside her task, placed the basket on the table, and ran out without paying attention to Scarlett Yates.

As she ran, she cheered, "Miss Yates is awake, Miss Yates is awake, hurry and bring the second young master here."

Then, there were cheers all around.

"Really? Miss Yates is really awake?"

"That’s wonderful, Miss Yates has finally woken up, we no longer need to worry about the second young master losing his temper."

"Quick, quick, quick, go find the second young master, he’ll be so happy to hear this news."

Then there was a flurry of footsteps running back and forth, and finally, everything returned to calm.

The chirping voices from earlier disappeared, and the surroundings became quiet again.

Quiet, as if Scarlett Yates hadn’t seen the young nurse, nor heard the cheers from outside; perhaps it was all just her imagination.

She really thought so in her heart.

When people are about to die, they experience many hallucinations.

Is she about to die?

Thinking of death, Scarlett Yates suddenly felt reluctant.

Although her life in this world hasn’t been too satisfactory, she still doesn’t want to die at all.

She is unwilling to just die like this.

Her dreams have not yet been realized, and her life is only just beginning... 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

She has always been so afraid of death, so she has always lived cautiously, not expecting to end up like this,

The more she thought, the sadder she got, and the more she wanted to cry. In moments of vulnerability, tears can’t be held back; it seems only crying can vent the sadness, grievance, and unwillingness in her heart.

She cried with great sadness and misery, her tears falling like broken beads, blurring her vision.

She was so immersed in deep sorrow and fear that she didn’t even notice when the door was pushed open again and someone else walked in from outside.
