Chapter 860 Not Meant to Be
“Our town hospital has limited skills and equipment. You might have to travel to another district if you wish to check for a concussion. However, I’d advise you to do that tomorrow. It’s going to take you a few hours now, and the hospitals will be closed by the time you get there.”
Jason let out a long sigh. He was baffled by the terrible living conditions in the area. “Okay. Just give her a drip then.”
The nurses worked to give Mayaboy a drip before they carefully cleaned all of the wounds on the girl. The staff urged Jason to leave the room as they were cleaning the wounds, for there were a number of wounds in places that weren’t meant for his eyes. He stood outside the room and rested his back against the wall. Right then, his determination only grew stronger than before. He knew that he had to bring her away from the village no matter what. Thus, Jason immediately pulled his phone out before he called his assistant and told him to rush over.
Later, a few of the nurses stepped out of the room. “Alright. The wounds are all cleaned and bandaged.” one of the nurses said.
“Are her injuries serious?” Jason asked in an anxious tone.
The nurses, however, didn’t seem shocked to see the injuries that the girl had sustained. “She got beat up by a man, didn’t she? You can’t be her man since you’re obviously from the city.”
“I’m her friend,” he explained.
“It’s normal for men to beat their wives up in a place like this, so you don’t have to be too surprised. However, you shouldn’t get too close to the girl. You might only be causing her more trouble,” the nurse reminded him in a kindly tone.
Jason didn’t respond to her words. This place isn’t suited for me at all. The nurse is right. I’m only going to cause Savannah more trouble if I stay here. That’s why I have to take her away from this place.
When Jason went into the room, Mayaboy was awake. “I’m fine,” she uttered with a smile. She had overheard his conversation with the nurse.
“How could you be fine? You’re all beat up!” Jason cried as he stared at a gash made by a whip that went across one of her cheeks. “Don’t you know how to run away from those people?” he uttered in a rather annoyed tone. He couldn’t stop himself from raging over the incident. I don’t understand it at all. She’s a grown woman; doesn’t she know how to run away from trouble, especially after she has been suffering for such a long while?
“I’ve tried running in the past, but we women have no way out of the mountains. I ran to one of the other districts and tried to take a train away from this area back then, but I didn’t have a single penny with me. I had to call my mother to ask her to bring me some money, but my grandparents were the ones who showed up in the end. I got badly beaten that time as well, and I nearly died because they starved me for three whole days and nights,” she explained. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Jason hung his head low as he listened to her. He was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control his tears if he spoke right then. So, it’s not that she didn’t try to fight for herself. She fought for herself a few times, but every failure only made her life harder than it was before.
“The clan leader gave us a large sum as bride price when I first got married. I considered asking for a divorce after that, but the clan leader said I would have to return all the bride price I received. My younger brother had spent all of the money by then, and the family had no means of obtaining such a large sum of money. So, my father finds ways to drag me back whenever I try to run away from the village.”
“I’m going to help you leave this place!” Jason lifted his head as he spoke, looking as if he was making an oath right then.
“You should leave. We aren’t meant for each other,” she said as she looked him in the eye.
He was surprised to hear what she said.
“I can tell that you care for me, but we’re two people from completely different worlds. We simply aren’t meant for each other,” she continued.
At that moment, Jason reached for her hand. “Since you can tell that I care for you, then you should know that I’m not going to leave without you! I’ve liked you since the first time I met you, Savannah. I simply didn’t dare to tell you the truth back then. I’ve kept your picture with me all these years, and I’ve never stopped thinking about you. Please let me take you away and let me take care of you.”
The smile on Mayaboy’s face seemed brighter than before. She was elated, for she hadn’t expected the man she liked to like her back. At that moment, she felt as if her life was complete. “Okay,” she uttered with a firm nod.
Jason tugged his lips into a grin then. “You don’t have to bother about the rest of the matters. I’ll handle it all. You just need to get all the rest that you can get.”
