Chapter 938 No Regrets

Upon Sonia’s question, Daphne released her grip on the door handle. “I was in the hospital, but decided to leave halfway through.”

Over time, we became much closer to the extent that I would be the one accompanying her for meals and walks whenever President Lane was not around.
