Chapter 321

“Nurse, I don’t know this man; can you get him out of here?”

Maybe it was because I had seen enough crazy stuff, but my gut feeling was now as sharp as a razor.

The nurse gave the guy a look, and her alarm bells instantly went off. She said sternly. “Leave, don’t disturb the patient, or I’ll call security!”

The man glared at me with such a chill. I didn’t know him, but he looked at me like I was his worst enemy.

With the medical staff present, he didn’t dare linger. He made up an excuse, “Sorry, wrong room.”

And with that, he turned and left.

Even after he left, I still had the creeps. I didn’t know this place well, and being here alone felt risky.

After a bit of thinking, I decided to call Neil.

“You better take good care of Irene! If you go after that tramp Bonnie again, I swear I’ll cut ties with you!” Just as I dialed the number, the hospital room door burst open, and Faith’s voice echoed from afar.

Soon, Neil’s phone started ringing. He glanced at the caller ID, then at me.

I immediately hung up, but Faith still noticed. “Irene, were you just calling Neil? Are you scared he’ll go see Bonnie?”

Caught off guard by her smug face, I was momentarily speechless.

Neil glanced at her and explained. ‘It was a call from the office”

“I was just calling Hannah to update her on the situation.” I denied it too.

Faith’s face fell, but she quickly put on a smile. “Okay, I’m going to grab something to eat while you chat.”
