Chapter 78

Summer Frost POV

A few minutes ago, the door hard opened without a knock, and my heart missed a beat when I looked up and saw that the person was Mr. Miller.

I watched as he sat on the sofa in the ward, glaring hard at me like his life depended on it. The look on his face was that of someone who had a lot on his mind, but for five minutes, he has remained silent and not even a single word since he came inside.

“Why have you been ignoring my texts and calls?” I could not believe my ears. How could that be the first thing he asked me? I was hospitalised for f** k ‘s sake, so the least he could do even if he didn’t care about me was to ask about my health, right? At least that’s what every normal human being would

do.

“Did you come here to ask me that?” I had open my mouth to ask him that, but I swallowed the words and bit my lip.

“I’m sorry,” I could only lower my gaze and apologize even though I didn’t do anything wrong to him.

“Why were you not careful? You are getting engaged soon, how could you fall ill?” My heart was crushed by the next words that came out of his mouth, but sadly, I could not complain or talk back at him even though i desperately wanted to.

“I’m sorry,” Again, I apologized like the loser that I was. I could not have bring myself to talk back at him, right?

“Mrs. Moore is still angry. You should get your s h i t s together and apologize to her as soon as you get out of here. I can’t afford to lose everything now. I’ve worked hard for this for years,” He didn’t have to make it so obvious that I was just his pawn, but he did, anyway.

“Why?” I raised my gaze to look at him.

“Why should I apologize to her when I did nothing wrong?” I could bear everything, but not this. I could take blames for things I didn’t do, but apologizing to that woman was the last thing I would ever do.
