---- Chapter 6 Gilbert hurriedly ran to my room again to see if I had already returned home, but the room was still empty. Only the faint smell of blood told him that something might have happened to me. He urgently contacted the Consigliere: "Quickly find out Julian! Check all hospitals!" But he didn't know that I had just woken up in the hospital ICU. The pungent smell of disinfectant fills my nostrils. The pain in my abdomen clearly tells me I'm still alive. Thank God! Tears stream uncontrollably, and a pair of well- defined hands reach out awkwardly to wipe them away. 'Julian, are you in pain somewhere? I'll call the doctor right away!" ---- Turning my head, I see Austen's anxious face, and my heart inexplicably calms down. That night, I thought I was sure to die. He rushed over after answering the phone. The doctor came to check on me and explained the various post-operative precautions. I learned that if Austen hadn't rushed me to the hospital in time, I would have died from a massive hemorrhage and shock. To save my life, half my uterus was removed. But I wasn't frustrated at all. In this second life, nothing is more important than being alive. Austen's eyes filled with concern. I wiped away my tears and smiled at him: "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I really would have died." ---- He gripped my hand tightly, filled with lingering fear, and said: 'Julian, I'm so glad you didn't forget me and knew to call me for help when something bad happened." Austen is the childhood sweetheart that my parents arranged for me. But from the time I first experienced love, I fell in love with Gilbert. Back then, I didn't know his infatuation. All I knew was that I extremely resented the arranged marriage with Austen. Ihated him always chasing after me, caring for me as if he were my future husband. While I chased after Gilbert like a simp, Austen was always behind me. In my past life, after I married Gilbert, I learned that Austen had given up MIT for me and applied to Cambridge.
