The Apple of My Eye

"Oh my. You are such a silly girl, aren't you? Why did you have to take things too hard?" Simon Gu said, fear written all over his face. He immediately sent Yvonne to the hospital upon picking her up from the bed. A huge sense of relief washed over him when the nurses started to lead her to the emergency room.

At the end of the day, Yvonne Gu was still a part of the family despite everything she had done. As her father, he was responsible for the well-being of his daughter. It disturbed him that she could go as far as committing suicide just because of their misunderstanding. What's worse, he didn't even have a chance to say a word.

"Look at what you've done. If it weren't for you, this wouldn't have happened! How can you do this?! If something bad happened to Yvonne, I'll make sure you'll regret what you did, " Wendy exclaimed, pointing her fingers towards Simon. "Are you even aware of what you did? You slapped her in the face! I could never do that! Yvonne is my daughter and she is very special to me. How can you accuse me of such a thing?! You will definitely regret all of this if something bad happens to her."

"Enough!" he yelled, extremely upset. He didn't think he had the strength to hear any more painful words coming from Wendy. "If you have really taken good care of her, how can this happen? If she was in really good hands, she wouldn't even think about doing such a thing! This is entirely your fault!"

He yelled even more loudly. "Don't pass the blame on me! You're the one who's been hounding us ever since you've had a son!" Wendy said, trying to sound reasonable.

"That's not fair. You're not making any sense!" Simon Gu was about to argue further when a nurse interrupted them. "Why are you guys fighting in here? This is a hospital. People don't go here to scream at each other. Can't you see you're disturbing our patients? Better go home if you don't have the decency to act like civilized people."

Simon and Wendy were rendered speechless. They stood aside as the nurse passed, too embarrassed by the scene they had caused. They realized how ridiculous it was to fight while Yvonne was still in the emergency room, hovering between life and death.

Wendy couldn't help but silently cry. She felt extremely ashamed after being reprimanded in such a way that she couldn't do anything but bitterly wipe away her tears. Meanwhile, Simon was still anxious about Yvonne's current condition. But seeing Wendy cry flooded him with guilt. "There's no need to cry. I'm sure Yvonne will be fine, " he said as he patted her lightly on the back, trying to offer some comfort.
