Chapter 81

Summer Frost POV

“Theard you are getting discharged tomorrow. Your engagement is in two days. Get some rest today. You are going for dress picking and fitting tomorrow. I have informed Hunter about it. He will pick you up’ My heart wrenched painfully and tears welled up in my eyes when I read the text had sent to me. I knew there was no point talking him out of it. This was his final decision, and not that there was anything I could do about it, anyway.

The sound of the door opening drew my attention, so I quickly wiped my tears and looked in the direction to find Chloe.

“Ma’am, everything is ready now. The doctor has given me the discharge papers, and Mr. Xander has paid up the hospital bill before he left,” She explained to me, and I slowly nodded.

“Are you ok, ma’am? Are you crying?” She hurried over to sit in front of me on the bed, but I just held my head low and cried. I wanted to hold back my tears and hide the pain, but I could not. It was eating me up.

“Why are you crying, ma’am? Is everything alright? Are you feeling pain anywhere? Do you need me to get the doctor?” She held my hand worriedly.

“I will go get

the doctor,” She stood up to leave, but I held her hand and pulled her back to sit.

“What should I do, Chloe?” I finally looked at her, and she returned the gaze confusingly.

“What do I do?” Again, I dropped my head and buried my face in my palms.

“Talk to me, ma’am, Is there anything I can help with? You can always talk to me, you know?” She persuaded me, but sadly, talking to her could not even help me in this situation.
