The Forgotten Girl Is Back For Revenge

Chapter 90

A man stood at the nurses‘ station, dressed in a black suit. He was tall and had a quiet presence

“Sir, here’s your medicine. The nurse placed the IV bottle in the basket and handed it over

But the man wasn’t paying attention. His eyes were fixed on a couple nearby, Hailey and Owen

He seemed lost in thought until the nurse called him again, twice, Snapping out of it, he nodded, took the medicine, and headed toward the ward

His mind was still elsewhere as he walked, turning a corner before stepping inside.

“Brother.” Henry’s weak voice came from the hospital bed. The man responded with a nod, taking off his coat. Underneath, he was dressed in black shirt, too,

Meanwhile, Owen was taking Hailey out for dinner. Halfway through, Hailey’s phone rang. It was her adoptive mother.

Lucia.

Lucia’s voice was warm. “Lydia is getting engaged right after Easter. Can you come back for it?”

Hailey’s brows lifted slightly. “Engaged? To whom?”

Lucia chuckled. “Tony, Xavier’s son, you remember him? He studied overseas, then worked in a big city for a couple of years. He came back recently and wants to start a business, something with tourism in the area.

“He and your sister were close when they were kids, and now they’ve reconnected. We’ve known him forever. He’s a good

guy.

Hailey pressed her lips together. “Mom, even if you knew him as a kid, he’s been gone for years. Do you really know what kind of person he is now? Isn’t this a little rushed?”

She already knew the man. In her previous life, Lydia had married Tony too.

At first, things seemed fine. Then, after she had a baby, things changed. Her body wasn’t quite the same, and Tony, being the shallow jerk he was, started cheating. When Lydia found out and asked for a divorce, he didn’t just refuse, he hit her

A guy like that was an absolute trash. She wasn’t about to let her sister make the same mistake.

“You’ll see when you come back. He’s a really good guy, handsome too, and he looks so honest, Lucia gushed on the other end. It was obvious she was thrilled about her future son–in–law.

Hailey rubbed her temples. Yeah, there was no talking her adoptive mom out of this. If she wanted to stop this engagement, she had to go home herself.
