Capítulo 288: Chapter 300: Unexpected Encounter at the Horse Field (2)

Elijah Smith raised his head, took one look at the "No Smoking" sign on the wall, quickly removed the cigarette from his mouth, nodded hurriedly towards the nurse, and extinguished the cigarette in the nearby trash can.

The smoke he had drawn into his stomach was expelled, and he coughed violently, choking himself. He bent over, leaning on the trash can, and it took him quite a while to collect himself.

"Sir, are you alright?" The thoughtful nurse provided Elijah Smith with a bottle of water.

He slowly raised his head, his eyes a bit red, and shook his head at the nurse. "Thank you, I don't need it. I'm okay."

I'm okay, really, I am…Elijah Smith kept telling himself this but he found that he was feeling particularly dismal, even more than the year when he was thirteen, when he found out both of his parents died and his sister was pregnant.
