Chapter 964 Selene's Plan Failed Selene was in the hospital. She could barely speak. And her neck was in colossal pain due to the strangling. Even drinking water was painful to her. Selene stopped the doctor who was leaving and asked, "Doctor, how long does it take to recover?" The doctor pushed his glasses hesitantly and said in a severe voice," The swelling can be relieved within three days, but it will take another week to recover fully." "Can you at least ease the pain?" That was what she was concerned about. She could try to eat as little as possible but still had to eat. The thing was, the pain was unbearable, even though she was only lying there and doing nothing.
The doctor could only say, "Miss Miller, it takes tfor the medicine to work. We've given you painkillers. Your pain will be eased soon enough." But he never mentioned exactly how soon.
Selene was furious to see the doctor leave. She spent extra money to shift into a single ward, and this was what she got. What a jerk! She accidentally moved her neck and grimaced because of the pain.
She swore to herself with her fists clenched that she would make Rylan pay for this. They both worked for the sboss, but Rylan was superior to her and trampled on her at will just because he was a Melton. Catherine must die, so did he! She would make them pay.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Her throat was on fire. But no one cto pour her swater, no matter how many times she pressed the service button. So, she could only go by herself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she passed the service station and overheard snurses talking, she found out this hospital was under the Duncan Corporation. After drinking swater, she went back to her ward. The pain in her throat was still unbearable, but the surprising news lightened her mood.
She could not wait to text Branden. This was her chance.
They were startled when Ronin and the others found out about what Catherine had done.
Zobber suddenly realized something. So, Catherine had made a trade with Black Robe long ago. It seems Ronin was not the first one to betray the Hacker Alliance. Catherine was." Two fierce gazes darted at her when she finished speaking. Zobber shrunk a little and smiled awkwardly. "I'm only telling the truth." Withal and Ronin rolled their eyes at Zobber. They were used to Zobber's reckless words and didn't want to argue with her.
However, seriously speaking, she had a point. From the beginning, Catherine made trades with Black Robe with specific purposes they didn't know about.
"Since Catherine has admitted the trade, will the university be harsh on her?" asked Zobber. She was worried about Catherine. It was said that everyone in the lab thought Catherine sold her experiment and the lab for her benefit.
Ronin instinctively raised his voice after hearing what Zobber said. "I dare them!" Withal dragged him back to his seat and told him to calm down. "Will you two please stay out of this? Catherine must have done this for a good reason. You know the consequences of messing up her plan." Ronin finally calmed down after being warned by Withal. When it cto Catherine, he would be rationless. Withal knew that very well. So, he changed the topic before things got worse. "Anything from your side, Zobber?" "Nope!" Zobber shrugged, looking casual. “No further notice. Just toldto wait." They couldn't figure out what was on Black Robe's mind or his next move. He was intelligent and mysterious.
Withal sighed. "Then we'll wait. Stay out of Catherine's business. Wait for her order." They decided to follow Withal's advice. Cause he was the most rational one among them.
After lying in the ward for two hours, Selene finally got excited when she heard noises from the hallway.
She quickly checked her appearance in a small mirror, ensuring she looked fragile and beautiful simultaneously. She wanted Branden to feel sorry for her.
Then she hid the mirror and lay on the bed quietly as the footsteps went closer.
"Miss Miller."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelene slowly opened her eyes, pretending to be tired, only to find Carlo standing there. She looked around but didn't see Branden at all. She couldn't help but frown unhappily. A hint of disappointment escaped her lips. "Why are you here?” It would be impossible for Carlo to miss her expression. He didn't want to cin the first place if it was not Branden's order. No one wanted to come.
"Miss Miller, Mr. Duncan sent me. Your ward has been transferred to the VIP room on the 7th floor. Do you want to move there now?" said Carlo.
"What about Branden? Is he busy at the company or something?" Selene tried to hold on to the last straw. But carlo's answer was like cold water pouring on her. "Miss Swann is staying at hfor a few days. Mr. Duncan is busy taking care of her. I believe you'll excuse him." Carlos deliberately said that to her face because he loathed women who threw themselves at Branden while Branden only cared about Catherine.
Selene's face was all colors. There was no way to release her anger. Branden chose Catherine over her when she was lying in the hospital so miserably.
'It must be Catherine! She stops Branden from seeing me. What a bitch!' thought Selene.
Seeing Selene was not answering, Carlo urged her. “Miss Miller, do you want to move or not?" Selene glared at him and answered, Why not?" With Branden backing her up, the people in the hospital would have to treat her better.
She stood up and walked in front of Carlo, who couldn't help but show his om disdain for her arrogance. He couldn't O determine why Branden would respond to a woman much worse than Catherine. G1232 Ready to Burst! Tap to Bounce Insanely Popular Super Fun Game!
