Chapter 208 Jonathan’s Worry

Chapter 208 Jonathan’s Worry

Angela woke up in the hospital.

She opened her eyes to a dimly lit room with the familiar smell of disinfectant in the air.

When she stiffly lifted her head, she saw Jonathan sitting on a chair beside her. The warm yellow light cast his profile like a gentle and quiet painting.

There seemed to be a hint of fatigue on his face.

Upon hearing a noise, Jonathan looked up.

He then reached out to press the bell and slowly helped Angela sit up. “How do you feel?”

Angela frowned, her voice a bit hoarse as she muttered, “I feel like my whole body hurts. especially… Argh.”

She moved her right shoulder, feeling a sharp pain.

“My shoulder.” Angela’s face twisted in pain. “It hurts the most.”

Jonathan comforted her, “The doctor said there’s nothing serious, so don’t worry.”

Thinking of the kidnapping, Angela quickly asked, “Is Jessica okay? What about Samuel? Did they catch him? And the people who escaped… Have they been caught, too?”

Looking at Angela with bandages on her forehead and hands, Jonathan felt a bit helpless.

She was in such a state herself, yet she was still worrying about others.

But in order to not let her worry too much, Jonathan patiently replied, “Don’t worry. Jessica is fine. She’s been placed in another ward. She insisted on crying and shouting by your bedside until late at night yesterday but eventually couldn’t hold on and had to take some sedatives prescribed by the doctor to fall asleep.”

Angela breathed a sigh of relief.

Jessica was fine, which was a huge relief for Angela. Angela would never forgive herself if anything happened to Jessica because of her.

“As for Samuel…” Jonathan’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness as he spoke, “They have all been caught, and not one escaped. Samuel was shot in the leg while trying to escape, and Oliver broke his leg. He is now in the hospital receiving treatment.”
