Editor: Henyee Translations
"Can I go in now? I want to go in and see Miss Miranda." After hearing Miranda’s manager’s words, the anxiety on Bruce’s face couldn’t be hidden at all. He looked at Miranda’s manager and asked.
"Sure, but Miranda isn’t in a good mood right now. Why don’t you go in later, Special Assistant?" The manager knew Miranda’s temper the best and was afraid that she would say something nasty to Bruce, so he advised him.
"It’s okay, I’ll just go in and see her." Without waiting for the manager to say anything, Bruce took two steps forward, pushed open the door, and walked into the ward.
"Didn’t I tell you? No one is to come in. Don’t disturb me. I don’t need anyone to see me." Miranda lay on her side on the bed with the blanket covering her face. When she heard the door open, she threw the pillow on the bed to the ground without turning around.
"Miranda, it’s me, Bruce," Bruce said softly as he picked up the pillow on the ground.
"What are you doing here? Did President Owen ask you to come? Are you worried that I’ll affect the filming progress?" Miranda said while pulling the blanket tighter when she heard that it was Bruce.
"Miranda, what are you talking about? The CEO asked me to come, but we’re just concerned. It has nothing to do with the filming. Don’t worry too much," Bruce was afraid that Miranda would misunderstand, so he quickly explained.
"Really? I don’t believe you." She said she didn’t believe him, but Miranda’s grip on the blanket loosened.
Bruce took two more steps forward and reached out to pull Miranda’s blanket away.
"What are you doing? Don’t look at my face." Miranda didn’t expect Bruce to pull her blanket. She was so nervous that she quickly covered her injured cheek.
"Miranda, don’t be afraid. I... I just wanted to see how badly you were injured," Bruce said while looking at Miranda.
"Don’t you see it now? Go." Miranda released her grip and the wound on her face was revealed.
In the past, Miranda’s face had been fair and smooth. Now, the wound on her face had just had ointment applied and her cheeks were swollen. She looked a little ugly. Bruce immediately felt uncomfortable.
"I know I’m ugly now. Go away. Stop staring at me." Miranda saw that Bruce had been looking at her wound and instinctively wanted to cover it with her hand.
"Don’t touch it. You can’t touch the wound now, or it will affect its healing speed." Bruce quickly stopped Miranda’s hand.
"Miranda, calm down and listen to me." Bruce finally found the courage to pull her hand down and hold it in his. freewebnoveℓ.com
"I like you. I’ve liked you for a long time."
"You... Bruce, what are you talking about?" Miranda was stunned by Bruce’s sudden confession.
"If you hadn’t been injured this time, I might not have had the courage to say it. In my heart, you’ve always been beautiful. You sing so well, you’re so beautiful, and you’re so outstanding. There are so many people who like you. I’ve always thought that I’d be happy to see you get to know you."
"Beautiful? What about now? If you like me because of my face, you can leave now. I’m not beautiful anymore," Miranda said angrily after hearing Bruce’s words.
"Miranda, can you let me finish? Don’t just listen to half of my words."
Bruce continued helplessly, "In my heart, you’ll always be the most beautiful. It’s not about your face, but your unique beauty from the inside out."
"You have creative talent that no one else has. You have so many fans who like you and support you. You don’t have to be sad over such a small matter. I’ll also be with you until you don’t need me anymore." Bruce’s voice was very soft when he said the last sentence.
But Miranda heard him.
"Will you? Are you sure you’ll accompany me? Even if you see that I have such a bad temper and a scar on my face?" Miranda asked Bruce seriously.
"Yes, as long as you’re willing and don’t hate me, I’ll always be with you," Bruce said while looking at Miranda sincerely.
At this moment, Miranda looked at Bruce’s expression and suddenly understood the way Owen and Anita looked at each other when they were together. This was a look of affection that came from the bottom of their hearts.
"Who cares? You can do whatever you want." Unable to withstand such a passionate gaze, Miranda finally relented. She lowered her head and said shyly. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Bruce knew that Miranda was already opening up to him. She hadn’t said whether she liked him or not, but it didn’t matter. There would be a lot of time later.
"Yes, Miss Anita is here too. Do you want to see her?" Bruce asked again after covering Miranda with the blanket again.
"Yes, but I don’t look good now."
"It’s okay. You look good no matter what. Miss Anita has been worried about you the entire way. See her and make her less worried."
"Well, let her in, then." Miranda nodded.
"Miss Anita, come in. Miranda wants to see you," Bruce said as he pushed open the door and looked at Anita, who was standing outside.
