Chapter 838

    <b>Chapter </b><b>838 </b>


    Xander sounded like he had just woken up. He asked hoarsely<b>, </b>“Yvonne said that Merry got hurt. How


    is she?”


    Mnie told him about what happened with Timothy. Xander said, <b>“</b>If he really has acute mania, it’s best to stay away from him. You should leave Jepton immediately once Merry gets better.<b>” </b>


    “I have the same idea<b>, </b>but I’m worried about bumping into <b>him </b>in Nava. I was nning on going to Morrington <b>anyway</b>. I’ll leave for Morrington directly <b>from </b>here<b>.</b><b>” </b>


    She had decided earlier that Timothy could not be trifled <b>with</b><b>. </b>She decided <b>to </b>go <b>into </b>hiding first. There <b>was </b>no need to go against such a person and <b>cause </b>herself unnecessary trouble.


    Xander did not <b>say </b>anything<b>. </b>He sighed after a <b>while</b><b>. </b><b>“</b><b>It’s </b><b>so </b>difficult <b>to </b><b>meet </b><b>up</b><b>. </b>I’m about to go back, and you’re preparing <b>to </b><b>leave </b><b>instead</b><b>.</b>”


    “Are youing back?” <b>Mnie </b><b>was </b>surprised. She thought Xander <b>would </b><b>not be </b><b>back </b>so <b>early</b>.


    Xander said, <b>“</b>My mother’s condition has <b>stabilized</b>.”


    Merry stayed in the hospital for three <b>days</b>. She was finally discharged after confirming that everything was fine with her.


    Yvonne wanted to pick them up<b>, </b>but she could not <b>leave </b><b>because </b><b>of </b>work. Mnie wanted <b>to </b>take a taxi on her own<b>, </b>but Yvonne did not <b>agree </b><b>to </b>it.


    She felt that Merry had gotten hurt <b>because </b>of her and wanted <b>to </b>take full responsibility for it.


    Yvonne sted a message out to her <b>group </b><b>chat</b><b>: </b>[I need help picking up a friend who <b>just </b><b>got </b>discharged from hospital. I’ll <b>be </b><b>eternally grateful</b><b>!</b><b>] </b>


    Many of her friends responded to her <b>call </b>for help. They were a bunch <b>of </b>scions who had nothing much on their tes<b>. </b>Yvonne <b>got </b>the help <b>of </b><b>a </b>woman she knew and let it be after <b>that</b><b>. </b>


    When she checked <b>her </b>phone again<b>, </b><b>Yvonne </b>found someone had <b>dropped </b>her a <b>direct </b>message<b>. </b>It was Simon: [Which friend <b>is </b><b>this</b><b>?</b><b>] </b>


    Yvonne had <b>not </b>realized that she had sent the <b>message </b><b>to </b><b>all </b>her rich <b>friends </b>in Jepton.


    At further thought, Yvonne <b>felt </b>like it should be fine.


    Nothing would happen<b>, </b>right?


    She decided not to tell Mnie <b>about </b><b>it</b><b>. </b><b>If </b>Mnie found out Yvonne <b>had </b><b>made </b><b>another </b>mistake<b>, </b>she


    might note <b>to </b><b>Yvonne </b><b>for </b>any <b>help in </b><b>the </b>future.


    The friend Yvonne had gotten to help was a kind<b>–</b><b>hearted </b>person. <b>She </b><b>came </b>straight <b>to </b>the <b>hospital </b>ward to help Mnie pack.


    It <b>was </b>a gloomy day<b>, </b>and lightning <b>shed </b>in <b>the </b>sky <b>once </b>in a while<b>. </b>It looked like <b>it </b>might rainter.

    Yvonne’s friend, Harriet, helped with Mnie’s suitcase and walked in the front. She said worriedly, ” Please don’t rain. I’m scared of driving in the rain.”


    Mnie wanted tofort her and say that she could drive, but she suddenly spotted a figure.


    Eugene was dressed in a ck shirt. He was looking down while standing next to his car.


    There was a gloomy air about him in this cloudy weather.


    <b>He </b>seemed to sense someone staring at him and looked up. He stared back at Mnie with his deep, <b>dark </b>eyes.


    Mnie pressed her <b>lips </b>gently. She had not decided if she wanted to go forward when he came directly toward her.


    He walked straight to Harriet and said in a low voice, “Give me the suitcase, I’ll take them home.”


    She <b>was </b>a little surprised. She looked back and forth at Eugene’s and Mnie’s faces before saying carefully<b>, </b><b>“</b>I don’t think it’s appropriate<b>.</b>”


    Yvonne had warned her beforeing over that she had to send Mnie personally back to the hotel and not to let anyone else, especially Eugene and Simon<b>, </b>give Mnie a lift.


    Even though Harriet did not know the reason for this, she remembered Yvonne’s reminder clearly.


    <b>“</b>You’re right that this isn’t appropriate,” Mnie said <b>after </b>being silent for a while. “I don’t know him very well.<b>” </b>


    Eugene felt his chest tighten when Mnie said that without any emotions<b>. </b>However, he still insisted, “I have something important to ask you.”
