Chapter 8

Josephine didn't reply and couldn't be bothered to look at her phone anymore. She set it aside and closed her eyes in exhaustion. The feeling of her heart being repeatedly torn apart was unbearable.

She had experienced it when she lost her mother as a child.

But she knew.

All she had to do was hand it over to time. A year, two years, at most three to five years, and she would slowly move on and heal.

After all, everyone would have hardships in their life.

"Ms. Dunn, Ms. Dunn!"

Josephine fell asleep.

When Mason woke her up, she thought the plane was about to take off and immediately opened her eyes.

But Mason handed her the phone with a worried expression.

"What?"

Josephine looked at the screen.

"The head of Forbes Group had a car accident. He was seriously injured and sent to the hospital. It was reported that he was calling his wife's name before losing consciousness. His current condition is unclear..." A car accident!

How did that happen?

Recalling what Zayn said before she fell asleep that he was coming to the airport to find her, Josephine quickly dialed his number.

Unexpectedly, the call was answered quickly.

Even more surprisingly, it was answered by a woman.

"Josephine!"

It was Nadine.

But Josephine didn't bother asking why Nadine had his phone.

"How is he?"

"If you want to know, why don't you come to the hospital and see yourself?"

Josephine immediately ended the call.

She didn't want to waste time with someone speaking sarcastically. Therefore, she called Shawn.

"Mrs. Forbes?"

"How is Zayn?"

"It's not looking good..."
