Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1077 Should I Give Up

Once they arrived, Sally got out of the car and waved at him before walking towards the gate of the villa.

“Sally!”

Cody called out after her as he got out as well.

“I’m sorry for what happened today. Please don’t take it to heart.” Cody walked up to her and raised his hand to gently rub her nose.

“What do you mean? What happened today?”

Sally blinked her eyes in confusion and asked. She had no idea what Cody was apologizing for.

“Sally,”

Cody gritted his teeth and said in a low voice. Did Sally even have feelings?

“Oh! Are you talking about Irene? It’s fine! No, I won’t take it to heart!” Sally answered while shaking her head after finally getting what Cody was trying to say.

Cody’s face darkened as he took a deep breath. He could tell from her reaction that she didn’t care at all.

Disappointed and angry at Sally, Cody simply turned around to get in the car. He slammed on the gas so hard, the engine roared as he drove off.

Seeing him leave angrily, Sally simply scratched her head, yawned, and walked into the villa.

However, as soon as she got to her room…

“Aaaaaah! Adonis, you jerk!

Are trying to kill me? I almost had a heart attack!” —

Sally screamed at the sight of a shadow floating in front of the window. It was like something straight out of a horror movie.

All of a sudden, Adonis, who had been sitting on the chair, turned on the light and looked at her with disdain. “Look at how scared you were. I can’t believe that you actually had the balls to go after our uncle.”

Sally pressed her hand against her chest and leaned against the door. Then, she glanced at him and retorted, “What are you up to? Why are you still awake at midnight? Why did you come to my room?”

“I wanted to talk to you,” Adonis curtly replied.

“About what?” Sally asked.

Adonis looked up at her and sighed. There was a hint of helplessness and worry on his handsome face. “Did you know that Mom has been crying in her room ever since she came back today?”

“Wait, what? What happened?” Sally asked, her voice full of concern.

“Unlike you, she didn’t know what happened to Uncle Sean during his last mission. She just found out about it today, and it totally broke her heart when she found out that he almost lost his life.”

Adonis looked at Sally with thoughtful eyes.

Sally sat on the bed and murmured, “I see. What about Dad? Did he say anything to comfort Mom?”

uncle’s clothes, on the other hand, only occupied a small corner of the closet.

His clothes were mostly military green. They didn’t go well with her childish clothes and her huge pink doll.

It was just like the worlds they lived in. They were just too different.

Her eyes welled up with tears.

Sally slapped herself in the face, took a deep breath, and continued taking out her things, putting them in her bag.

While Sally was busy packing up, with tears flooding her eyes, she suddenly heard someone talking loudly outside. She wiped her tears in a hurry, picked up her things, and hid herself in the bathroom.

There was no way she could let anyone see her crying.

“You are recovering well. But you were badly injured this time. I advise you to take the rest of the year off and not to go back to the army. If you don’t, you might suffer from serious complications. As for your superiors, I will take responsibility for explaining your situation to them.”

The doctor followed Sean into the ward.

“Is it that serious? Isn’t three months enough?” Sean said with a frown. He had a lot of unfinished business waiting for him in the army.

“Three months? That’s hardly enough. You are not made of steel. You need a good rest.”

The doctor smiled and shook his head. “Let’s wait and see. It will take at least a year for you to fully recover.

Just look at it as a blessing in disguise. Have a good rest. You’ll get promoted soon, so you don’t have to work so hard!”

What was the point of being a general if he had to do everything himself?

Without saying another word, Sean turned around, and walked towards the bathroom.
