chapter36

I tore the blood results into pieces without looking at the paper, then threw it into the trash can so Harper wouldn't see it. I'd make up something to tell her about why they weren't in my file if she asked. Hopefully, getting me food would distract her from it. I turned around to push the IV pole back to the spot it was in before I'd moved it, glancing out the window as I did so. The window in this room looked out over the parking lot, and I saw a few luxury Town Cars driving in and heading toward the ER entrance.

He hurried into the hospital with Tara in his arms.

When I saw his anxious look, my heart sank.

I'd come to the emergency department because of a heart attack when I was with him.

What kind of reaction did he have then?

I remembered him standing by the bed and looking down at me while I was curled up in pain. He'd thrown an AMEX Black card at me as if I were a beggar.

He'd thought I was pretending to be sick to gain his sympathy and get more money from him.

There was a clamor of footsteps coming down the hall, getting closer and closer to my room. Since this was the ER ward of the hospital, the rooms weren't private. The walls facing the hallway were glass, and Griffon would be able to see me as he passed. But when Griffon rushed by my room, he didn't even look my way.

Harper chose that moment to come back, holding a tray with red Jell-O on it. When she saw that I had moved around in bed, sitting up at the edge of it, she hurried over.
