Chapter 1196 I Shouldn't Have Been Like This
Henry fell asleep in the end. On the way back, the car was quiet, except for the occasional breathing of the man in
the passenger seat.
Wisps of the smell of alcohol lingered between the two of them, and the sealed car suddenly became a little
depressed. Bert lowered the glass window on his side and only opened a crack to let the cool night wind in from
outside.
He should not have drunk driving, but in today's mood, he did not want to call a designated driver. To be exact, he
did not want anyone to break his rare psychological balance at this time.
Although Henry was just an 18-year-old child, he had to admit that after telling Henry all this, he felt a little relieved.
He couldn't wait to reveal his relationship with Alivia to the public. Even if he couldn't do it now, it was good to tell

Fortunately, the child did not blame him.
Bert drove back to the hospital. Before getting out of the car, he woke up Henry, who was obviously in a daze and
obedient throughout the whole process. He got out of the car and entered the elevator as he was told.
In the end, Bert arranged for him to stay in a room next to the ward. He had never taken care of anyone in his
lifetime, and his tenderness had been given to Evelyn and Lucas. Now it was a little difficult for him to take care of a
boy.
Watching him fall on the bed, Bert just pulled the quilt aside to cover him and left the room.
Bert had to go back to the company tonight. Due to the time difference, he still had a teleconference. When he
passed by Alivia's ward, he subconsciously stopped and looked inside through the glass on the door. He didn't
expect that Romy was not there.
There was only a petite figure on the bed in the empty ward. He frowned and gently pushed the door open. Even
though he knew that she was in a coma, he still subconsciously controlled himself, for fear of waking her up.
There was no light on in the ward, only the screen at the head of the bed was on. Under the faint light, Bert sat on
the folding chair next to him, and his eyes were filled with the soft face in the pillow.
Recently, he had rarely stared at her so carefully, but now when he looked at her, he couldn't help but feel
distressed. She seemed to have become weaker, and her pale little face seemed to become transparent, lifeless,
and heavier.
The current Alivia was completely different from the one she had seen for the first time. She should never have
been like this.
More than half of the man's face was hidden in the darkness, and his face looked more and more heroic. In the
middle of the night, such a high-spirited person sat beside the bed. He was no longer flashy, but was silent and

lonely.
Perhaps it was too late at night, or maybe it was too quiet around, a question involuntarily emerged in his mind...
If he hadn't met Alivia at that time, what would have happened to him?
After leaving Jewel City and returning to Eoland, he did almost the same thing as before in his territory. He probably
would no longer have any thoughts of getting into a relationship.
He had always looked down upon love until he met Evelyn. Unfortunately, this woman already had someone she
loved. He had never got her or lost her. He just felt empty.
As if a hole had been dug in the bottom of his heart, the cold wind whistled in.
And at this time, God let him meet Alivia, at the airport, in the bar, at the door where she blocked the bullet for
him... Everything was so perfect and incredible, filling the gap in his heart.
Love was something that could only be chanced upon by luck. Bert had never thought that he would encounter it,
but this was the reality.
