She had already answered Carlos’ call earlier and promised to come.
Ten minutes Later
They heard footsteps from the empty hallway, coming closer and closer.
It didn’t sound like there was just one person, but a few people coming.
And among the footsteps, there was the click-clack of high heels and the slightly softer sound of leather shoes. So there must be a few women and men coming.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘Who could they be?’ Everybody in the ward was curious.
Soon enough, a bodyguard pushed open the door to the ward. Everybody turned their heads to the doorway, where a woman in white short rompers appeared. Around her slim waist, she had a shiny belt that perfectly complimented her fine, shapely body. On her feet, she sported a pair of creamy-white high heels.
Earlier at Megan’s apartment, Debbie had spilled sraw eggs to her new dress when she cracked the shells. So she went back hfor a change of clothes. Then before coming to the hospital, she called a few people to tag along.
In the supporters she had Yates, Xavier, Blair, Adriana, along with three bodyguards.
Fortunately, the VIP ward was Large enough to hold even a larger group.
Even after Debbie and her supporters arrived, there was still room for more. Yet, despite the ample room, the air in the ward took on an odd, oppressive feel as the two groups confronted each other.
It was Damon who broke the silence. He trotted to Adriana and smiled falteringly.
“Honey, why did you cwith Debbie? Are you…visiting
Megan too?”
Adriana smirked and pinched his ear. Ignoring the presence of other people, she scolded, “Damon, are you so free? Huh? Your son’s starving already. Go back hnow!”
Adriana grabbed Damon by the ear and dragged him out of the ward. Even when the door was shut behind them, everyone could hear him pleading as she Led him along the hallway.
“Honey, be gentle. I just happened to drop by… Pepper Debbie, that vicious bitch! Why did she bring you here? Oh, my ear…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmInside the ward, Debbie grinned. ‘Good. That’s one down.’
Then, she shifted her gaze to Blair. Making eye contact with Debbie,
Blair got the hint and bashfully walked towards Wesley, who had been staring at her the whole time. She held his hand and asked, “Go shopping with me? You promised. It’s been too long since I had a new outfit.” She winked at Wesley as she said this, hoping that he wouldn’t call her out in front of the others. That would be embarrassing.
Wesley detected a slightly flirty, bratty tone. That was a rare thing for her. He wondered when he had promised to go shopping with her. But then, he cast a cold glance at Debbie. The woman was smiling innocently. Realizing what was going on, he turned to Blair and said icily, “Megan isn’t safe yet. We’ll go later.”
“Megan again! He always puts Megan first.’ Pulling a long face, Blair glared at Megan. The sick girl had been silent the whole time-probably out of fear. She didn’t feel safe with Debbie here. The next second,
Blair loosened her grip on Wesley’s arm and pursed her lips.
“Fine, forget it. I’LL go on my own.”
And with that, she spun around to leave.
