After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 163

Franklin took out his phone with a calm face. "I'll ask Jasper."

Brayden was in a ward on the fifth floor.

Brayden said with dissatisfaction, "Franklin said he needed my help, so I hurried here. But he asked me to pretend to be sick!"

"Take it easy, Master Brayden. Mr. Maskelyne has had the whole floor to you." Jasper pressed Brayden down to the bed and covered him with the quilt.

"I don't want this at all." Brayden was very speechless.

He thought it was a shame to do so.

He couldn't understand why Franklin asked him to do so.

"Mr. Maskelyne said he would give you three days off and a set of the latest fishing equipment if you did a good job."

"Really?" Brayden's eyes lit up.

He had wanted a set of fishing equipment for a long time, but it was too expensive for him to buy.

Extravagance was not allowed in the Wright family.

Now that Franklin was willing to buy him the equipment, Brayden would certainly agree.

Just then, footsteps came from outside the door of the ward. Brayden hurriedly pretended to cough with a weak look.

Franklin knocked on the door, and Jasper hurriedly opened the door. "Good afternoon, Mr. Maskelyne and Miss Andrews."

Sylvia nodded at Jasper, and then said to Brayden, who was lying on the bed, "Why didn't you tell me you were hospitalized?"

Brayden coughed violently as he said, "It is not a big deal. I don't want to bother you."

Sylvia calmly looked at Brayden's face, which was red because of coughing. "Master Brayden, did you get an IV drip? What does the fluid contain?"

Brayden's mind was blank. He didn't expect such a question.

But he said quickly, "I didn't pay attention to it. It seemed to be about anti-inflammatory."

"If you have an IV drip, why is there no needle hole on the back of your hand?" Sylvia coldly said, lifting the quilt with one hand. "What do you and Franklin want to do?"

Brayden was hopeless!

He screwed it up.

And he wouldn't get the fishing equipment!

Sylvia glared at Franklin, turned around, and left.

Franklin hurriedly caught her arm. "Honey, just stop and listen to me"

"For what? You joined with your friends to lie to me." Sylvia was expressionless, so Franklin couldn't figure out whether she was angry or not.

"Let me explain." Franklin grabbed her wrist. "I did not mean to do it. I just want to see you, so I came to the hospital. I want to..."

"Stop it. I don't know if you're telling the truth or not, and I don't care. It has nothing to do with me anyway." Sylvia shrugged Franklin off and continued to walk towards the door.

"I just wanted to go to the emergency room and call you in like what I did last time, only to run into you in the corridor," Franklin said anxiously.

But his words made Sylvia angrier.

"Can you stop being childish?" Sylvia glanced at Franklin.

She thought he must be insane!

Just then, a nurse rushed over, "Dr. Sylvia, your grandmother is awake."

"I'm going over there now." Sylvia nodded and walked towards the ward where Kira was.

Franklin followed her without any hesitation.

Kira looked very bad, lying weakly on the hospital bed. With a needle pricked into the back of her hand, the medicine was infused into her body drop by drop.

She was exhausted.

She looked around the surroundings and found it was not the attic or any other place in the Andrews family.

And for a moment, Kira heard the footsteps and Sylvia's voice, "Grandma, how are you?"
