Chasing His Runaway Wife by Jamie Stones

Chapter 42

Meanwhile, Sylvie spent three days recuperating in the hospital.

Naomi, for one, came to keep Sylvie company almost every single day, bringing her soup and various tonics, showering her with nothing but

care.

Sylvie was moved. After all, a person who was sick would more likely become dependent. “Thank you for being by my side every day, Naomi.”

“What are friends for?” Naomi lifted the kettle and continued, “Ah, we ran out of water. Let me go fill this up.”

As she wheeled around, something fell out of her pocket and landed lightly on the edge of the bed. However, she did not seem to notice as she walked out quickly.

Out of curiosity, Sylvie picked it up and found that it was actually a list of collateral damage in the clinic and the costs of drugs. ‘Is this Tabitha demanding for compensation?‘ she pondered.

Her face darkened in an instant.

When Naomi came back, she saw Sylvie pulling a long face. She quickly grabbed the list from Sylvie’s hands and explained nervously, “Don’t get riled up, Sylvie. I’ve already paid the compensation for you. All you need to do now is focus on your recovery-”

Yet, that speech seemed to have fallen on deaf ears for Sylvie. She fumed through gritted teeth, “Tabitha made me lose my baby, and she dares make me pay for it?”

As she cursed, she got out of bed and was all set to rush out the door.

“Calm down, Sylvie! You’re still not in perfect health!” Naomi might be shouting anxiously, but she was leisurely moving her feet toward the exit.
