Chapter 3008
In a rush, EIIar pushed open the car door and dashed into the rain.
"Where are you going?" the chauffeur shouted, but Ellar didn't answer, becoming just a distant figure in
the rain.
He roamed the streets, hoping to spot Patricia, but her familiar form was nowhere in sight.
"Patricia!" Ellar called, but received no reply.
'Where could she be in this big city? She doesn't have many places she usually goes.'
Ellar tried hard to recall, but he couldn't think of any specific locations. Patricia usually stuck to going
between the office and her apartment, and he hadn't noticed any unique hobbies or interests.
Suddenly, it clicked for Ellar. "Of course, how could I forget?"
Glancing around, he identified a direction and started running.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe remembered Patricia mentioning her dream place was the amusement park, even though she never
truly enjoyed it from childhood to adulthood.
Considering the weather and the uncertain day, Ellar thought, 'She might just head there.'
At last, reaching the amusement park, Ellar spotted a solitary figure sitting on the ground, hugging her
knees, leaning against the park's gate, her eyes empty, resembling a homeless person.
"Patricia!" Ellar hurried over and enveloped her in his arms." It's pouring, why didn't you seek cover?"
Patricia slowly shifted her gaze to Ellar, taking a moment to recognize him. "Ellar, why are you here?"
she asked, sounding a bit disoriented.
Noticing the quiver in her voice, Ellar expressed concern," Aren't you afraid of catching a cold, standing
here in the rain?"
"The park is closed," Patricia uttered slowly, her voice carrying a touch of sadness.
Feeling a twinge of sorrow, Ellar hugged Patricia tightly. "It's alright. We can come back and play
another day. Let's head home for now," he suggested, gently assisting her to her feet to bring her back
home.
Just as Patricia got up, she stumbled slightly, nearly falling back.
Ellar promptly steadied her and insisted, "No, we need to go to the hospital."
Without hesitation, Ellar lifted Patricia and rushed to the nearest hospital.
When Nicole and the others arrived, Patricia had already received treatment, changed into a patient
gown, and was on an IV drip.
"I’m sorry for causing everyone to worry," Patricia apologized, aware that Lulu was concerned about
her.
"That's not the main thing. Your health is what matters," Lulu insisted earnestly, her concern evident in
her expression.

Nicole advised Patricia, "Don't dwell on anything else for now. Concentrate on getting better, and we
can discuss other matters once you're discharged."
Patricia nodded in agreement, but deep down, she had already decided not to proceed with the
treatment. She couldn't allow Ellar to sacrifice himself for her safety.
Nicole detected a subtle shift in Patricia's expression, understanding her thoughts, but recognized it
wasn't the appropriate time to address it.
"You should head back; I'll stay with her here," Martin suggested to Ellar, noticing he was still drenched.
Despite Martin's suggestion, Ellar hesitated to leave and shook his head. "I've already requested the
driver to bring some clothes. They'll be here soon."
