Chapter 147

Yolanda was really tired and fell asleep quickly.

Half–awake, she vaguely sensed someone adjusting her blanket, but she didn’t pay much attention to it.

When she finally woke up and came downstairs, Charles was sitting there waiting. Lately, he’d been swamped with issues thanks to the Andrade family stirring up trouble, but he made sure to spend an extra half hour at home to look after her. “Make sure you eat a good breakfast. You’ve lost some weight these past few days,” he reminded her kindly.

“Babe, I’m going to stay with Megan for a couple days. Her husband hasn’t been answering any calls, and I’m really worried something bad might’ve happened,” Yolanda said.

Charles couldn’t say no to a reason like that.

He just smiled, gave her a gentle pat on the head, and headed out the door.

As soon as Charles left, Yolanda kept to herself, ate a little, and gave Megan a call.

Megan asked her not to come to the hospital after all.

“Yolanda, I was all mixed up before. I’ll get myself together soon, I promise. About Greg, I owe you an apology -I’m really sorry. I thought it through last night, and I’ll be working on getting better at the hospital over the next few days,” Megan said.

Seeing Megan so firm about it, Yolanda didn’t insist. Instead, she quietly sent fifty grand to Megan’s account.

Megan accepted the money without hesitation–she really needed it right now.

Yolanda drove over to Ian’s place and caught him just as he was heading out.

“Yolanda, remember when Raelyn got replaced? Now the new female lead’s got a dozen key scenes where she needs me to pick up her close–ups. I’ve got to head out to the suburbs for it,” Ian said.

“Let me take you,” Yolanda replied.

She pulled a hat low over her eyes, slipped on a mask, and climbed into the crew van.

Whenever she met up with Ian, she’d always switch to this van halfway there–no exceptions.
