After Death, Love Unveiled

Chapter 197

Wyatt didn't overthink it. Seeing Felicity in her current state, he assumed she'd recently undergone surgery, which might explain her low spirits.

He took a seat and said to Felicity, "If you're feeling unwell, make sure you let the doctor know."

Felicity nodded. "I know. You can go ahead and take care of your work. I'm fine here at the hospital. Elara has been staying with me a lot recently."

Aside from Aubrey, Elara was the one who had spent the most time with her. Felicity was genuinely touched.

Wyatt turned to Elara. "Elara, thank you."

"It's nothing, really. It's what I should do. Since Mr. Hawthorne is here now, I'll get going. I have something to take care of," Elara said as she left the hospital room. After she was gone, Wyatt shifted his focus back to Felicity.

As Elara stepped out of the hospital, she was stopped before she could leave.

"Wait, Ms. Kensington," a voice called out.

Elara looked up to see a woman standing in her path, Jack's mother.

She carried a Hermès bag and radiated an air of wealth, though her efforts to appear sophisticated couldn't hide her lack of refinement.

The Hacker family wasn't originally one of the truly wealthy elite. Their fortune had been built in recent years through business ventures.

No matter how much Melody tried to rebrand herself, her tasteless sense of style always betrayed her roots.

"What is it?" Elara asked calmly.

Melody looked her over from head to toe. "So, you're the one who got my son sent to prison?"

Elara blinked, surprised by the accusation. "What are you talking about? Didn't your son end up there because of his own actions?"

"Emily is just slandering my son. Jack is a good man. He'd never do those things! Those women are just trying to seduce him because he's rich.

"Emily posted all that online because she didn't get what she wanted. She's just bitter because she couldn't marry into the Hacker family!" Melody ranted, her voice dripping with indignation.

Elara couldn't help but smile faintly at Melody's delusion. "This has nothing to do with me, and frankly, it's not my concern."
