Eloise jolted awake, feeling immensely relieved that Gwendolyn hadn’t lost her life this time. Otherwise, she and Treyton might never have had a chance to be together again.

She slumped to the ground while pondering how to make amends for everything she had done before.

After pondering for a while, she picked up her phone and called Treyton.

The busy signal kept ringing from the other end of the phone, making the waiting period feel exceptionally long.

“What’s the matter?” Treyton’s impatient voice rang out. “If there’s nothing, I’m hanging up.”

“Wait! Don’t hang up first! Trey, I really need to talk to you!” Eloise gripped her phone tightly as if she was afraid that he would hang up any second.

“If you want me to persuade Mr. Ferguson to lift your confinement, then forget about it. As for the engagement, I’m still thinking over it.”

“No, I’m actually looking for Gwendolyn. I don’t have her contact information… Could you please pass her the phone?” Eloise’s voice grew softer as she spoke

“You’re looking for her? Ms. Ferguson, I would advise you to abandon any further ill intentions toward Gwendolyn. I will not allow you the opportunity to hurt her,” Treyton warned in a low voice.

“That’s not it. I want to talk to her so I can apologize. Eloise bit her lip. “Please give her the phone. Trey, I’m begging you.”

“Apologize?”

Treyton was even more astonished. However, since Eloise was far away in Salinsburgh and kept locked up, she couldn’t possibly cause much trouble. Reluctantly, he agreed to her request.

He gently knocked on the door of the temporary operating room before opening it slightly and waving to Gwendolyn, who was inside.

Gwendolyn shot a glance at Kieran, who was still focused on performing surgery, before tiptoeing out of the room.
