Chapter 17: Dress to Kill
"You don't have to do that," Ella murmured. She lowered her head out of shame.
"You're welcome." Edward smiled at her.
"You don't have to involve yourself in our feud. He is your cousin, and he will not stop until he gets his revenge on both of us," she worriedly said.
"It's okay. I hate that asshole anyway." Edward places his hands over her shoulders and winks at her. It's his way of telling her that everything is going to be okay.
"Thank you. I appreciate your help," she sheepishly said.
Ella's mood lightened, and her spirits brightened. Edward noticed an unexplainable glow on her face as her smile sparkled with gratitude.
"Hey, do you want to grab something to eat in the cafeteria?" he casually asked her as a friend.
"I would love to, but I'll be late for my part-time job." There's a prick of sadness in her voice.

The sound of the furnace, the air exchanger, and the keyboard clacking can all be heard coming from the reception area. Along with the low-pitched conversations in the waiting area, you can also hear the screams, cries, groans, gasps, grunts, and hisses of anguish coming from the patients in the emergency room.
