You're Out Daddy

Chapter 217

Keep Your Mouth Shut At night, when the doctor came on his rounds, Desmond asked, “How’s the patient in Room 103 now, doctor?” The matter about Lynch Corporation had been sensational recently, so everyone in the hospital knew about it. At the same time, they were also aware of his relationship with Erin. Indeed, it was rather tragic. Following that question, the doctor flashed him a smile and answered, “I was just planning to tell you the good news. Your lover might regain consciousness.” Desmond was stunned for a moment, but he only froze for a few seconds as the doctor was around.

He then queried with a smile, “Really?” “Yeah! She inexplicably showed signs of improvement after someone came and visited her today. If her willpower is strong, she’ll regain consciousness in the next few days. However, it’s not definite, so further observation is required.” “After someone came and visited her?” Desmond echoed, recalling the man who told him he was sick earlier in the day. Could it be him? The doctor nodded. “Yes. He was probably someone important or the like since he could spark her will to live. Actually, there have been similar precedents in the medical field. Many people would say something important to the patient or something that could trigger the patient’s will to live. Anyway, it’s a positive sign. Congratulations!” Desmond chuckled, but his smile didn’t reach his eyes. He initially thought that the man was simply lying to him, but his confidence was gradually fading then. After the doctor had left, he tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep. His mind was chock-filled with the possible scenes after Erin regained consciousness.

At the sight of those two words, Desmond’s heartbeat accelerated considerably for no apparent reason. But at the same time, an indescribable sense

be a lie to claim that he wasn’t anguished. He would harbor affection even toward a cat or a dog, much less a woman who had given him a child. But what other choice did I have? She offended Hamilton Corporation and bought disaster upon Lynch Corporation. Presently, that was the only path she had. Despite the dampness of his eyes, his heart remained as hard as a rock. Erin, I know you’re very much resentful. If that’s really the case, go and seek Kenneth out. This is all thanks to him! At that thought, Desmond took a deep

relief suffused him. At long last, he had a reprieve from his despondency for the past few days. However, the instant Desmond remembered that he had to tie off some loose ends, he changed out of the hospital gown and into his own clothes without waiting for the doctor to make his rounds. Then, he sneaked out of the hospital. He first went to the bank and withdrew some money before taking a taxi to his destination. It was an abandoned factory. After alighting from the taxi, Desmond looked around. It wasn’t until he had ascertained that no one was there that he headed into the factory. Holding up his phone, he texted while walking: I’ve arrived. The man replied: I’m inside. Desmond put his phone away and headed in.
