Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Thoroughly Clarifying with Wyndham Howell
Translator: 549690339
Enna Clark knew that saying these words would hurt Wyndham Howell, and she knew it was unfair to say them at this time tonight. But she couldn’t care about that anymore, as she couldn’t be perfect for everyone. If she had to choose, she’d choose to protect those she cared about.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Howell.”
“I’m the one who should apologize.”
Since she had already spoken her mind, Wyndham Howell had nothing left to say except to express his bitterness. After all, he knew deep down that tonight was not entirely a coincidence, and Baron Lawrence was not completely mistaken. It was because he had impulsively helped Professor Davies with a lecture that he had encountered Enna Clark and left the school with her.
In the end, he couldn’t say that he didn’t deserve the beating.
Even if he did not deserve it, he was a man. Men fought men, and regardless of the reason, those who lost lost. It was ridiculous for a woman to apologize.
“Enna, I’m sorry for questioning your privacy without knowing anything. I hope you don’t take it to heart.”
His sincere apology made Enna feel a bit embarrassed, she smiled and waved her hand, “It’s nothing, I know Mr. Howell didn’t mean any harm. It’s just that tonight, you got injured because of me…”
Wyndham Howell chuckled and interrupted her, “Enna, are you sure you want to emphasize how badly I was beaten by your boyfriend? I’m a man after all, please spare me some dignity…”
His eyebrows softened, and he propped his head up with his arm that was not receiving the infusion, smiling, “Actually, it’s quite nice like this. I’ve been wanting to take a break for a long time, but the hospital management has been unwilling to approve my leave. Now that I’m lying in a hospital bed, they can’t make me work overtime anymore. I’ll take this chance to take my annual leave and take little Rose for a trip nearby. She’s been wanting to see the sea in
Linton City.”
..Anyway, I’m sorry.”
The reason Wyndham Howell initially fell for Enna Clark was because of her kindness. She would always rather put herself in an uncomfortable situation than to hurt other people’s feelings. She was very considerate of others’ feelings.
Like that time at the amusement park, when Bobby and Rose worked together to deceive her, she still didn’t leave him behind. Instead, she empathized with him and spent the afternoon accompanying him at the amusement park.
But he never expected that the same trait that first attracted him to her would be the one to make him give up.
He couldn’t bear to see such a kind woman caught in a dilemma because of him.
He also didn’t want to see her unhappy.
Perhaps from the beginning, they were better off as friends. He just took a wrong turn on the path somewhere.
“The idea of studying tor the Veridian University self-study exam is good. I’ll have Wynd send you the past few years’ adult college entrance exam questions tomorrow.” He paused as if worried that Enna might misunderstand and quickly added, “Don’t worry, I’ll have Wynd send it. Think of it as my apology for causing a quarrel between you and your boyfriend this time.”
“Enna, I hope we’ll still be friends in the future.” Just normal friends.
Enna’s lips curled into a sincere smile, her bright eyes filled with warmth as she looked at Wyndham Howell lying in his hospital bed for the first time, and said, “Haven’t we always been friends?”
She just wanted to avoid misunderstandings, and they would have as little contact as possible in the future, even better if no contact at all. It didn’t mean she no longer considered Wyndham Howell as a friend.
But whether or not they would have contact in the future, she considered Wyndham Howell a friend.
Enna Clark picked up her bag, “Mr. Howell, I’ll be going now.”
“Alright.”
Wyndham Howell nodded, watching her leave the ward and watching an adolescent-like passionate infatuation come to an end….
