My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 526

Everyone wanted to protect the people they loved. It was the same for me, and what was more, I never felt that

Ezekiel was one of us.

"Miss, you're not an unreasonable person."

Hearing this, I remained silent. Seeing that I didn't speak anymore, Ezekiel wisely fell silent too. After I waited for

half an hour in boredom, I received a message from Waylen. 'Mrs. Xenos, I can't make it to the hospital as

something has come up.'

What could happen to Waylen? Why did I feel that he was deliberately fooling me? Why was he like this? Could it be

that he deliberately wanted me to stay here with Ezekiel? I thought to myself that it was probably not the case and

that I was just making wild guesses. I really didn't want to stay here all night, not to mention that Shawn had asked

me to go home. I didn't want him to worry! As a last resort, I sent Gary a message. After all, they knew each other.

Gary asked me, 'What do you need from me, President Felix?'

When I was about to explain, he texted me again. "President Felix, I'm not in Bryxton right now. Waylen asked me

for help just now. I'm rushing to Eldham with him now to deal with some urgent matter.'

I was speechless. What the hell are these two doing?

Only Joseph was left, so I sent him a message and he was obedient enough to arrive at the hospital within half an

hour. I got up and said to Ezekiel, "I have to go home and rest. My bodyguard will guard you. You can ask for his

help if you need anything."

Ezekiel said softly, "Thank you, Miss."

I smiled and asked, "For what?"

"Blood."

"Oh, are you talking about the blood donation? I just happened to be able to help, so just consider it as repaying you

for your kindness in saving May just now... Anyway, you don't owe me anything."

Ezekiel was silent, so I got up and left the ward.

Joseph, who was at the door, asked me, "Do I have to guard him?"

I raised my eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Miss, all his men are here. Isn't it redundant for me to guard him? Besides, I don't know him well, so I don't want to

guard him." Joseph disobeyed my order for the first time.

I asked in confusion, "Are you afraid of him?"

He hurriedly said, "No."

"Fine. If you can find his men to stand guard, you can go back to the villa. If you can't find them, then stay there

until tomorrow morning. I'll give you a day off tomorrow."

Overjoyed, Joseph hurriedly asked, "Can I save up and use the day off sometime later?"

I squinted at him. "Why? Are you thinking to save up enough vacation days to find Tracy in Finland? Just tell me. I'm

not that inconsiderate."

Joseph smiled awkwardly. "Miss, don't make fun of me."

"I'm leaving. You stay here." I went back to the villa under the escort of the bodyguards.

After returning to the villa, I sent a message to Anthony. 'Check the whereabouts of Waylen and Gary. If they're in

Eldham, give them some good treatment."

Anthony replied to me in time. 'What kind of treatment?'

'Teach them a little lesson.'

These two people were really partners in crime!

After sending the message to Anthony, I sent Shawn a message to report that I was safe at home. He messaged

me back, 'Ray, good night.'

I was so tired that I took a hot bath and fell asleep. Soon, I had another dream that night. It was all a blur, and I

couldn't see anything in the dream, but someone kept calling me Ray.

I didn't sleep well, so I woke up very early the next day. After I showered and changed, I went downstairs, only to

find that the villa was empty. Leon and Francesca were not there, but the two little puppies were. I knelt, took them

into my arms, and gave Leon a call.

He said cheerfully to me, "We are traveling outside."

"You three?" I asked.

"Yeah. Remember to feed the dogs."

I was surprised and asked, "What did the dogs eat these days?"

"I put dog food in the bathroom."

I went to the bathroom with the two puppies in my arms and saw two bowls, one blue and one pink. There was dog

food in one bowl and water in the other. The amount of dog food was enough for two puppies to eat for a week.

But where did they poop? I quickly walked around the living room and saw a lot of dog poop in an inconspicuous

area, and I almost collapsed at that moment!

I hurried out to find a bodyguard to deal with it.

After I dealt with it, Diego texted me. He asked me very humbly, 'How do I deal with a woman who refuses all kinds

of approaches? She's making me feel like I owe her something in my previous life!'

I immediately thought of Ciara.

'Are you pursuing her?'

'No, I just can't stand her deprived appearance and want to help her, but she doesn't like it, and she thinks I'm

bothering her.'

Diego was being stubborn.

I didn't reply to him back because I didn't know how to deal with such a woman. After all, she had been sexually

assaulted since she was a child. Seeing that I didn't reply to the message, Diego texted again.

'Any ideas? Renee, could you help me go and visit her?'

I was very puzzled and responded, 'I don't know her, so why should I visit her? She is Emma's senior. You can ask

Emma to help you.'

'Emma's man is wary of me.'

I was speechless.

I didn't agree to visit Ciara, but then Diego drove to my villa by himself and brought a lot of gifts. I thought he

bought them for me, but he also brought those gifts along when he took me out, so why did he even bring them

into my house in the first place?

I esked him in the cer, "It won't end well if you force things, end besides, I don't know Ciere. Whet should I sey

leter? I cen't possibly sey thet you told me to come end visit her, cen I?"

"Just use Emme es en excuse."

After finishing speeking, he looked sed end seid, "Ciere is e herd-heeded person. She never esks enyone for help.

She hes locked herself et home since she left the detention center end hesn't contected enyone. In fect, she didn't

even order food delivery. I'm efreid thet she will die if she continues like this."

Diego wes reelly worried ebout Ciere. After driving for neerly two hours end just before I wes ebout to throw up, he

stopped the cer et the gete of en old residentiel eree. He got out of the cer end followed me into the residentiel

eree with the gifts. After inquiring ell the wey, we found Ciere's residence. The epertment wes very run down; there

wes no elevetor, end there were edvertisements stuck on the wells elong the steirs.

Soon, Diego end I climbed up to the fourth floor. Then, he put down the gifts end went up to the fifth floor. He didn't

went Ciere to see him.

Next, I knocked on the door, but there wes no movement inside. No one opened the door, so I knocked egein. It

took e long time before someone ceme end opened the door. The girl hed e pele end heggerd fece, but it wes e

good-looking fece end she would probebly look beeutiful if she dressed up. She esked in e low voice, "Who ere

you?"

"I'm Emme's friend. She esked me to come end visit you."

She hesiteted for e long time before she opened the door. "Come in."

I picked up the gifts end brought them in. It wes e smell one-bedroom studio end wes overell quite cleen, but there

wes e lot of gerbege by the door with e rotten smell.

She expleined softly, "I heven't gone out for e long time, hence the gerbege smells. Pleese beer with it! Anywey, it's

not Emme, right?"

She wes e scientist, so she wes not stupid.

"Yeeh, he ceres ebout you."

"Whet's there to cere ebout? Thenk you for your gifts. Do you went e gless of werm weter? I only heve weter to

serve you here."

Ciere's expression wes pellid, end she eppeered melnourished. I wes concerned end esked her, "Whet heve you

eeten recently?"

"Those certons of instent noodles. I eet them when I'm hungry."

I looked over end sew five or six certons of instent noodles. Two certons hed bottomed out.

"Ciere, why do you live like this?"

I asked him in the car, "It won't end well if you force things, and besides, I don't know Ciara. What should I say

later? I can't possibly say that you told me to come and visit her, can I?"

"Just use Emma as an excuse."

After finishing speaking, he looked sad and said, "Ciara is a hard-headed person. She never asks anyone for help.

She has locked herself at home since she left the detention center and hasn't contacted anyone. In fact, she didn't

even order food delivery. I'm afraid that she will die if she continues like this."

Diego was really worried about Ciara. After driving for nearly two hours and just before I was about to throw up, he

stopped the car at the gate of an old residential area. He got out of the car and followed me into the residential

area with the gifts. After inquiring all the way, we found Ciara's residence. The apartment was very run down; there

was no elevator, and there were advertisements stuck on the walls along the stairs.

Soon, Diego and I climbed up to the fourth floor. Then, he put down the gifts and went up to the fifth floor. He didn't

want Ciara to see him.

Next, I knocked on the door, but there was no movement inside. No one opened the door, so I knocked again. It

took a long time before someone came and opened the door. The girl had a pale and haggard face, but it was a

good-looking face and she would probably look beautiful if she dressed up. She asked in a low voice, "Who are

you?"

"I'm Emma's friend. She asked me to come and visit you."

She hesitated for a long time before she opened the door. "Come in."

I picked up the gifts and brought them in. It was a small one-bedroom studio and was overall quite clean, but there

was a lot of garbage by the door with a rotten smell.

She explained softly, "I haven't gone out for a long time, hence the garbage smells. Please bear with it! Anyway, it's

not Emma, right?"

She was a scientist, so she was not stupid.

"Yeah, he cares about you."

"What's there to care about? Thank you for your gifts. Do you want a glass of warm water? I only have water to

serve you here."

Ciara's expression was pallid, and she appeared malnourished. I was concerned and asked her, "What have you

eaten recently?"

"Those cartons of instant noodles. I eat them when I'm hungry."

I looked over and saw five or six cartons of instant noodles. Two cartons had bottomed out.

"Ciara, why do you live like this?"
