The Unwilling CEO’s Love Game

Chapter 109

Jocelyn reluctantly retraced to the hospital room. She shouldn’t be there anymore.

Unable to contact anyone else, she hesitantly picked up Melvin’s phone. It was unlocked with facial recognition.

She held the phone up to his face, but it didn’t unlock with his eyes closed After a failed attempt, it prompted her to enter a password:

Frowning, she had no idea what his password could be.

Locked out and unable to reach anyone, she was at her wits end.

Noticing the IV drip was almost empty, she called a nurse to help switch it out.

“When will he wake up?”

“His fever’s dropped a bit He should be sleeping now.”

The nurse left after changing the medication and checking the IV in his hand.

Jocelyn saw Melvin’s hand resting outside the covers and moved to tuck it in. The bite mark on his hand hadn’t faded. The scar was faint, and she wondered if it would ever disappear

He once said he was still her man as long as the bite mark remained.

How ludicrous those words seemed.

Swallowing the sourness rising in her throat, she tried not to dwell on the past. She gently called out, “Melvin?” But the man showed no signs of waking

She patted his arm “Melvin?

There was no response.

With a sigh, Jocelyn decided to step out and try to find Zephyr’s or Yara’s numbers, which she would have to look up on his company’s website
