The Forgotten Girl Is Back For Revenge

Chapter 108

Hailey stood motionless, her gaze fixed on the two of them as the light in her eyes slowly dimmed. She made no attempt to run because there was no point.

Owen had noticed her the moment he stepped out of the ward, yet he deliberately looked through her as if she were invisible.

“You should go back,” Alice said softly, her expression tender. “It’s too late, and you have work tomorrow.”

Owen gave a noncommittal hum in response.

When Alice turned and spotted Hailey, she feigned surprise. “Miss Dalton? What brings you here?”

“Just a slight fever,” Hailey replied with a polite smile.

Alice’s face immediately morphed into concern. “What? I’m sorry to hear that. Have you recovered now?”

Hailey nodded. “It’s nothing serious.”

“Oh, thank goodness.” Alice pressed a hand to her chest in exaggerated relief before sighing. “I just had a minor headache from the rain earlier. It was not a big deal, but Owen insisted on bringing me to the hospital. I had no choice. Her lips curled into a smug smile, eyes gleaming with triumph.

“Is that so? How considerate of him,” Hailey remarked dryly, shifting her attention to Owen. But he remained silent, already stepping away.

“I’ll be going,” he said, addressing only Alice.

Alice nodded and smiled sweetly. “Be careful on the way.”
