Chapter 243 Sleeping Pills

For nearly a month, it was uneventful.

Darlene was recuperating in the Swale family’s villa. Reina rarely came back from the hospital. And it was hard to see Nigel because he studied in school during the winter break.

In the past, Dakota would occasionally go to the company. Now, she was worried that Darlene was too bored at home and that something would happen to her, so Dakota did not go to the company anymore. She stayed at home all day to keep Darlene company.
