Chapter 85

Being in the hospital was really boring Plus my recovery was going great, so I checked out earlier than planned.

Bailey drove me back to Sterling Estates. The housekeeper cooked a hearty lunch for me I ate a lot, feeling all recharged

Suddenly, Oscar called, Trene, how are you doing? I went to the hospital, but they told me you had already left”

“Oscar, how did you know I was in the hospital?” I was a bit surprised, as I hadn’t posted anything about it on social media.

Oscar was silent for a few seconds before he told me, “Bonnie told me this morning”

Why would Bonnie tell Oscar about my injury? Thinking about what she had said before about Oscar having special feelings for me, I seemed to understand her intention. Was she trying to help Oscar pursue me?

Just then, Neil also called. After handling Oscar with a few words, I picked up his call.

“Did you go to the hospital? I asked.

“Of course!” Neil sounded pretty pissed. “What a waste of my time!”

Suddenly, it clicked Bonnie knew that Neil was going to the hospital this morning, so she told Oscar about my hospitalization. This way, both men would. run into each other at the hospital. Too bad she didn’t expect me to check out early.

I never thought she could be so cunning.

Neil had already hung up, and I didn’t bother calling back.
