Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Chapter 1359

Stefan looked at Valarie, his eyes red. "Veevee, thank you! I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"It's fine, it's not a big deal. Go check on your mom," Valarie said.

After Stefan left, Valarie turned to the nurse. "Can I pay the hospital fees now?" The nurse nodded. "Yes, you can."

Once Valarie finished paying and the nurse confirmed the transaction, she said, "Ms. Weir, I'll have my colleagues move Mr. Foley's mother back to her room now."

"Okay," Valarie replied.

She didn't argue with the nurse. After all, the hospital was just following protocol. Stefan's mother had been behind on payments for over two weeks, and the fact that they hadn't moved her out sooner was already lenient.

Before long, Stefan's mother was back in the ICU.

Seeing the medical equipment reconnected, Stefan let out a breath of relief.

After confirming his mother's condition was stable, he turned to Valarie. "Veevee, I really don't know what I would've done without you tonight. Thank you. I promise I'll find a way to pay you back."

Valarie looked at him, her gaze curious. "Don't worry about the money right now. But I do have a question. How long has your mom been in the ICU?"
