Chapter 73 Tricks

“Coraline was admitted to the hospital after a car accident?” I asked suspiciously.

“That’s right. She’s at City Hospital right now; we are waiting for a family member of hers to sign an approval for the surgery. However, we can’t contact anyone else right now…”

To tell the truth, I wanted to say that I had no connections with Coraline. Yet, I blurted out the exact opposite. “I’m heading over right now.”

Well, I didn’t visit her the last time I injured her. I should probably help her out this once.

I removed the apron around my waist and headed out after grabbing my purse.

After I arrived at the hospital, I visited Coraline in the emergency room. She looked extremely gaunt and haggard. At the same time, she kept mumbling something.

Coraline’s face brightened when she caught sight of me. “Lili, Lili,” she cried out and extended an arm toward me excitedly.

I would have turned around and left if she yelled or berated me. However, I couldn’t bring myself to leave her this way.

I made my way over to the bed and observed her carefully. There seemed to be several gashes across her face, and her palms were covered in blood too. Even her pants were tattered. It looks like her injuries are quite severe.

“How are you feeling? Where is Julius? Can’t you reach him?” I asked.

“Lili, he…” Coraline stuttered repeatedly, but she could not muster an answer to my question. In the end, her voice trailed off into silence as tears began to stream down her cheeks.
