Andre asked worriedly, "What are you doing? You didn't respond to my messages."

"Ah, I was having a chat so didn't check my phone." Mia said.

"You didn't meet with Leo or Molly, did you?" Andre asked.

Mia swore she didn't. Andre responded, "Come find me at the office when you're done."

"Okay, darling, see you." Mia said.

Mia returned to the hospital room and told the patient in the bed, "Michael, I'm leaving. You should take some rest."

Michael stopped her, "Hey, I thought we had a nice chat. Let's exchange contacts. If you ever want to go ghost hunting, I can arrange it. I promise not to scare you."

Mia retorted, "You need to have the nerve to scare me first. As long as you're not afraid of ending up back here."

Nevertheless, she took out her phone and exchanged contacts with Michael. She looked at Michael with a mischievous grin.

Michael nervously said, "Your smile makes me hesitate to save your number."

Mia suddenly thought of some people and said, "You might be able to help me in the future. If that opportunity arises, I'm willing to pay to hire you."

Michael replied, "Can I delete you from my contacts now?"

Mia waved him off and left cheerfully. She had been feeling guilty for a couple of days, but after talking to Michael, she felt a lot better. She happily ran off to find her husband at the office.
