Chapter 524
As she walked and pondered this matter, she hadn’t yet reached the door of the room when she saw from afar that many people were gathered at the doorway of the hospital ward, and the nurses couldn’t hold them back.
She walked closer and casually asked someone what was going on.
The woman asked smiled and said, "We just wanted to see how our great hero was doing."
"Hero?"
With a glance, Chloe seemed to understand the situation.
The woman continued, "Without him, our plane would not have landed safely, and none of us would have survived."
The others echoed, "He is our savior, and we owe him our gratitude!"
Nurse: "The patient needs quiet, please consider his needs!"
Chloe squeezed in through the noisy crowd, knocked on the door, and Robert inside opened the door to let her in.
"You finally made it, there are too many people outside."
Chloe’s gaze swept past him and landed on the man sitting in the hospital bed.
His arm was exposed, wrapped in gauze, but other than that, no other injuries were visible.
Chloe looked up and met his gaze.
He didn’t say anything, but his eyes seemed to say: Come over.
It was as if a strange force emanated from his eyes, attracting Chloe’s gaze.
"Hey, she’s here, ask her if the plane was hers." Robert said to his parents.
Chloe’s gaze slowly returned, she blinked and walked over to him.
"Are you alright?" she asked.
Alex moved his injured arm and smirked, "Minor injury."
"Aren’t you cold wearing so little?" he looked at her attire.
Chloe calmly replied, "It’s warmer here than Capitol."
The two chatted as if they couldn’t see the others around them.
Just as Robert was about to say something, he was suddenly pulled away by Evelyn.
The three of them quietly left the hospital ward.
Chloe took a small porcelain bottle from her pocket, clasped it in her palm and said to him, "This medicine is particularly effective for treating external injuries, let me apply it for you."
Alex stared at her for a moment, then slowly smiled, "Okay."
Chloe stepped forward, pulled down his clothes slightly, and then tore off the gauze, unraveling it little by little.
Alex cooperated by raising his arm, and the medicinal smell filled Chloe’s nostrils.
Even so, she didn’t frown.
It wasn’t until the gauze was completely removed, revealing the hideous scar, that her smooth brow furrowed suddenly.
"This is a minor injury?"
What she saw before her eyes was already a treated wound, yet it was still so jarring. She could only imagine how deep the original wound must have been, perhaps even exposing the bone.
Alex’s eyes were gentle as he asked her, "Aren’t you going to ask me what happened?"
Chloe looked down meticulously and gently applied the ointment she brought, replying softly, "You tell me."
As the ointment touched the wound, Alex could clearly feel the burning pain being slowly subdued, making him feel much more comfortable.
He looked at the girl close to him, smelling her faint fragrance, and for a moment, he couldn’t think of what to say.
The sudden quiet made Chloe subconsciously turn her gaze towards him, "Why aren’t you saying anything?"
He stared at the slight sweat on her temples and his heart softened. The words he was about to say became very nonchalant, "Somebody caused trouble on the plane, and I dealt with it."
"What happened to the troublemaker?"
"Dead."
Chloe abruptly raised her gaze and stared at him for a long while without saying a word.
Alex didn’t mean to scare her, so he quickly said, "He died painlessly and peacefully."
After saying this, he still felt strange.
However, the next second, he heard Chloe ask, "How many people died?"
He laughed, "You want to know so much? Aren’t you scared?"
