Finally I Got You

Chapter 29: Heart Emptied



“Brother, my heart hurts, do you think I’m obsessing? A man I only met a few days ago, I actually believe him so much, am I really so stupid ……” Elena cried.

“No, brother said, you’re just too naive, too easy to trust men, it’s the man who is insincere, or he regrets it, Elena, don’t be sad, it just means you’re not meant to be, he doesn’t have that Peter score, let’s go home.” Kevin is a little worried, he does not want to believe that Elena fell in love with that man, they only knew each other for three days, it is impossible to like, let alone love, but Elena’s current expression, anyone can see that mention lost love, is it because of the boy’s looks?

“Brother, could he have been delayed by something?” Elena leaned weakly on Kevin, her voice hoarse.

“It’s possible, Elena, you’ve been waiting here for too long, if he was sincere, he would have come long ago, let’s go home first.” Kevin helped Elena to walk outside the hotel, he was very, very worried, Elena’s face was very bad, as far as he could remember, Elena had never been so weak, more worried that Elena had fallen in love with that boy at first sight, he would not allow that to happen.

Could Elena really be in love with that man? But if it’s really like what Elena said, Elena should not have seen that kid’s straight face yet, and then look at that photo, a guy who can’t even see his face, how could Elena fall in love with him, it must be beacause she’s overthinking it.

“Brother, I’m so tired, God is playing with me again and again, I’m really tired …… but, I don’t want to go back yet, I want to wait, again ……” Elena’s voice is getting weaker and weaker. The weight on Kevin’s body and arms also increased, and it was obvious that it didn’t feel right.

“Elena, Elena, what’s wrong with you?”

When he left the couch, Elena tripped on her feet and stumbled, completely losing her strength.

“Brother,, I’m so sick,,” Elena’s body tilted and fell to the side, Kevin was so anxious that he held Elena’s hand, only to find that her hand was cold, and then he probed his hand to her forehead, but it was scary hot. He no longer paid attention to Elena’s weak protest, and picked Elena up in his arms and rushed out of the hotel and rushed to the parking lot.

“Brother, I don’t want to go, I want to wait here for Fred,” Elena said with tears in her eyes as Kevin carried her to the car, still refusing to leave.

“Elena, you are like this, do you still want to wait? Do you think he’ll come back?” Exasperated, Kevin ignored Elena’s protests and went around to the driver’s seat to take Elena to the hospital, but as he started the car, Elena struggled to get out.

“Elena Costa, do you want to die? What time is it that you’re still thinking about him? If he really cared about you, would he be in such a hurry to leave?” Kevin was exasperated and stopped Elena’s way to rebuke.

“Brother, then could you please leave a phone number at the front desk for me? If Fred comes back, have him call home.” Elena’s chest was sore, she wanted to see Fred, even if she was going to break up, she at least needed a reason. She didn’t believe Fred was that heartless of a man.

“Elena, listen to me, right now, you have to go to the hospital, and as for that man, if he’s sincere, he’ll find you.” Kevin was exasperated and domineeringly carried Elena to the car again.

“Brother, I don’t believe he will leave me alone, brother ……” Elena cried, she knew her brother was angry, but she was not willing, she didn’t believe she was just abandoned.

“You hide for me, I will go in and account for the front desk and leave my phone number.” Kevin, knowing Elena’s stubbornness, had to take a step back and said.

Right now Elena was running a fever and couldn’t afford any more delays, and as for Fred Garner, he was sure he wasn’t coming back that soon, so what was the harm in leaving a phone number.

As she watched Kevin return to the hotel, Elena could not stop the flow of tears, she called out to Fred Garner in her heart, she wanted to know why? Did he back down and give up just because his family stopped him?

Elena’s heart was in turmoil, her brain was in turmoil, and her body was even more uncomfortable, with a feeling of suffocation, she tried very hard to breathe some air, but the air seemed to be blocked, as if she saw Fred coming ……

When Kevin returned to the car again, Elena actually fainted in the back seat, he was terrified, ran red lights all the way to the hospital, picked up Elena and rushed to the emergency room.

“Doctor, doctor, my sister has passed out ……”

The medical staff were all terrified by Kevin and immediately sent Elena to the emergency room. Fortunately, Elena was not seriously hurt, and the doctor was very angry at Kevin’s fussiness.

“Sir, we have many more serious patients here, please stop fussing and affecting other patients in the future.”

“Doctor, isn’t it better to do another detailed examination, if there is nothing wrong, how come my sister suddenly fell into a coma, why don’t we stay in hospital for examination?” Kevin was very uneasy and nervously said despite the doctor’s mockery.

It turned out that Elena was just overly sad plus malnourished, these days, she was only sad and didn’t even eat much, no wonder she fainted.

“Sir, we have a lot of patients here, the beds are tight, please don’t waste medical resources, your sister is just a little anemic, go back and take care of it, there is no need to be hospitalized.” The doctor said with some impatience.

“Doctor, my sister is in good health, how can she be anemic, can you do a detailed examination again? I’ll go do the inpatient surgery here ……” Kevin was still uneasy and said again.

The doctor gave him a deep look, and then left without saying a word, Kevin followed behind ‘doctor’ ‘doctor’ called, the nursing staff really can not see over, came forward and said: “Sir, since the doctor said you do not need hospitalization, then you need to be discharged, you quickly go to see your sister, after the IV is finished, go back to recuperate, if you are not at ease, you can go to another hospital.”

“Brother, I’m fine.” Elena saw her brother so nervous and felt guilty, and whispered.

Kevin’s company in the United States is very busy, the phone rang several times, but Elena does not want to leave, he can only fly back and forth, recuperate at home for more than a month, Elena completely gave up, during this period, she went to the doctor N times, but there is no news, it seems that Fred Garner is really left, perhaps he originally has a girlfriend then.

After the persuasion of her father and mother, Elena finally made up her mind to follow her brother to America and start all over again.

“Dad, Mom, thank you for raising me.” In front of The Costa family’s mansion, Elena’s eyes were red, seventy-seven to forty-nine days had passed since the day she received her license, except for the first week, every day she spent in waiting and despair, and now, she had to leave with a dead heart, maybe she and Fred were really not meant to be.

Originally, she wanted to stay and wait, thinking that one day, Fred would come back. But these days, seeing her mother’s apologetic face, it was like a thorn in her heart. Every morning after that, she would go and wait at the place where she collided with Fred Garner, and there were many people passing by there every day, but none of them was Fred Garner.

“Elena, go to America with brother, forget about that man, you and that man have no feelings at all, it’s been so long, he avoids it, now even if you find it, what can you do if you see it?” Kevin looked at his sister with heartache, he should have come back earlier, even if it would not have happened a day earlier.

At the same time he had a lot of jealousy in his heart, his twenty years of affection with Elena was not as good as that man’s three days.

“Brother, I just,, just a little sad, since you can not keep the agreement, then why did you promise me? Why did you have to go with me to get a license? If you can’t keep your promise, why do you want to be with me?” Elena buried her head in her brother’s chest and whimpered.

She couldn’t tell what she was waiting for, she just felt lost, her heart was empty, she couldn’t even find her way, without her home, without her husband, she had nothing left.

Although her home is still the same, her parents are still the same, but her feelings are not the same, she can no longer get along with her mother as she did in the past.

Leave? Go to America with her brother and start over there? But what if Fred Garner came back for her after leaving?

Even though they had no feelings, this marriage certificate was legally valid.

“Elena, promise your brother you’ll stop thinking about that, okay? You’ve known each other for less than a hundred hours combined. Even if he said yes to you, maybe it was because of an impulse, or maybe he regretted it afterwards? Or he felt ashamed in front of you? Or maybe – he really had some temporary emergency?”

Kevin wanted to comfort Elena, but did not want to discourage him, only to find as much as possible to find some soothing words. Something more acceptable possibly

“Brother, even if that’s the case, our …… marriage license is still valid, and no matter what, even if we have to go through a divorce, we still have to meet.” Elena raised her teary eyes, she still can’t leave, at least, at least let her see Fred Garner, at least they should also do a divorce, otherwise, what to do in the future?

“Elena, don’t think about that right now, okay? I have asked Dad, your real mother may be in the United States, you do want to find her, we can go to your mother first, this marriage certificate matter, can be dealt with later, perhaps after a while, the man will come to you.” Kevin repeatedly persuaded, if even the biological mother could not work, then he could only directly pack the person to the United States.

In short, he came back this time with one purpose in mind, to take Elena away from home and from her mother’s ‘abuse’.

Under Kevin’s persuasion, Elena finally decided to leave for the time being, for no other reason than to find her real mom, who had a question she needed to answer in person.
