Kiss me tender

Melissa was still listening. However, no one answered the phone. On the contrary, there were messy footsteps, the sound of pushing the shelf, and even someone shouting, "Hurry up!" She vaguely heard her grandmother's crying.

Melissa felt worried. With a frown, she asked, "Mom, what's up?"

After a few seconds, the phone finally responded. It was her mother's anxious voice. "Melissa, where are you now?" "Come to the hospital now. Your father is seriously ill and needs an operation right away. I'm afraid that if you don't come, you will……" Jenny suddenly burst into tears when she was speaking. Melissa heard that voice and thought that Jenny covered her mouth to prevent herself from crying and said, "Come here quickly!"

Hearing that, Melissa became more flustered. She finally knew what she was afraid of. Her hand trembled more violently. She grabbed the phone tightly and asked, "Mom, mom, what's going on now? How is Dad now?"

Jenny couldn't help crying and said in a choked voice, "Anyway, come here quickly!" Then she hung up the phone.

The moment she hung up the phone, Melissa clearly heard her grandmother crying, "Where is Melissa?" "Call Melissa come over. Don't you want to see her even if you are going to die?"

It was a taboo for Melissa to hear the word "death", especially used for her father. Was his condition so serious that he couldn't hold on? She was in a panic and shouted, "Dad --" regardless of the bags on the ground, she directly ran to the street to find a taxi.

Unfortunately, there was no car in the middle of the night. Even if there was a car, it was also a private car. In a panic, she stopped the car. It took her a long time to wait for a car. She quickly got on the car and let the driver rush to the hospital.

Melissa's hands kept shaking, and she couldn't suppress her inner fluctuation. She knew that her father was seriously ill and she had been worried about him all the time. But after so many years, there was no big problem. He was just hospitalized, recuperating, and even did some small operations occasionally, but it would not be so serious. This time,

would happen to her if her father died. She seldom went to the hospital to see him these days because of Colin. She was afraid of making him angry. Would it be a mistake? Would her father leave her before she could

She knew that she could rely on Colin, so she didn't feel so weak and lonely. But when she thought of the moment when Colin faced her parents and her mother saw him, she was a
