Joshua Hughes's eyes were terrifyingly bloodshot, his pale lips trembling slightly, and his whole body felt unstable, his breathing turning painful, so painful that he almost couldn't breathe. A desolate look in his eyes suppressed intense pain as he stepped forward to push open that door, but Beckett Wright blocked his way: "Do you think she would want to see you now? This is the time she needs rest the most. I hope you can give her some space. Wait until she's better; if you really love her, don't come now to upset her." Every word felt like a needle piercing his heart, yet every word Beckett said was true. If Avery Jane saw him now, she'd probably want to kill him, right? But he just wanted to see her, even if it was just a glance.
Pushing past Beckett Wright, he cautiously opened the door.
"Joshua Hughes, I've been punished; this is the result of you breaking your promise..." In the quiet hospital room, her voice lost its usual clarity and sweetness, becoming chillingly cold.
