Chapter 427 Stealing My Wife While I Was Away

Edward saw Theodore kiss Phoebe's forehead in the rearview mirror, and jealousy hit him hard.

He floored the gas pedal, and the engine roared.

Theodore paused, glanced at the rearview mirror, and locked eyes with Edward for a second before looking away.

The car sped down the road, leaving the familiar mountain behind.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the hospital.

Doctors and nurses rushed Phoebe into the emergency room, and the red light above the door lit up.

Theodore leaned against the cold wall, remembering the last time he waited outside an operating room when Taylor fell down the stairs.

In just a few days, he felt that same despair and helplessness again.

He reached for his cigarettes but remembered smoking wasn't allowed, so he sighed and stared at the red light.

Time dragged on. Edward and Theodore waited in silence outside the emergency room.

Less than an hour later, the doctor came out.

Edward and Theodore quickly approached. The doctor removed his mask, glanced at both men, and focused on Theodore, knowing he was Phoebe's husband. "We did a full-body exam. Besides a severe cold, she has two dislocated ribs, likely from the airbag. No other injuries," the doctor said.
