Loving You In Secret

Chapter 17

Sheila was rushed to the hospital shortly after. Just as she was taken to the ward, she spotted a group of doctors wheeling someone on the bed out of the emergency room. With the doctors standing in the way, she could not see the patient’s face and only heard the doctors whispering to one another as she went past them.

“Have you managed to reach the patient’s family?”

“Not yet. She didn’t have that many contacts on her phone to begin with… We tried calling the person she called most recently, but no one has picked up so far.”

Sheila looked away carelessly.

Inside the ward, the doctor was treating Sheila’s wound when Tyler walked inside.

“How is she?” he asked.

“It’s just a scratch, so she’s alright. She should recover in a few days,” replied the doctor.

Tyler nodded.

Sheila looked at him longingly. “I’ve caused you trouble today, Tyler,” she muttered, her voice gentle and pleasant. “If it wasn’t for you, Miss Sparks wouldn’t have let me go that easily.”

Tyler remained expressionless. “It’s not your fault. Someone just decided to take it out on you.”

She was stunned for a moment but immediately realized what he meant by that. He had given his word and no one out there would dare to bully Sheila…or so it was supposed to be. It was clear that Maria was
