Let me go, Mr. Hill By Shallow South Chapter 1996
That was when Charity recalled that she was not dead. Instead, she had re-entered Eliza’s body.
She almost lost her life again.
“Lizzie, last night… Mr. Jewell has been watching over you.” Skyler suddenly darted a careful glance at the other end of the bed.
Only when Eliza turned her face did she notice Chester’s presence.
Chester had been here the whole of last night, but he did not expect her to be gentle to him when she woke up. Nevertheless, he never thought she would give him such a frosty look.
“Is Young Master Jewell here because he’s worried that I’m still alive?” Eliza asked indifferently with an extremely hoarse voice.
Beside her, Skyler was so nervous that her heart skipped a beat. Luckily, Chester was not mad, but his gaze was dark.
“Why didn’t you tell me yesterday that you have a fear of water?” Chester asked while staring at Eliza’s ghastly face.
“Did you give me a chance to tell you? In fact, have you ever treated me as a human?” Eliza chuckled, but it seemed like a sneer. “Young Master Jewell, please leave. I’m exhausted, and honestly, I’m traumatized by your face.”
“Trauma can be overcome.” Chester straightened his body. “What do you want to eat? I’ll get someone to send the food over.”
Eliza ignored him and turned to look at her assistant. “Get me a bowl of porridge.”
The assistant felt uncomfortable, especially after she caught sight of Chester’s awful expression.
“Alright. I’ll go and get it now.” Skyler did not dare to linger around anymore and jumped at the opportunity to escape.
Eliza closed her eyes and could not be bothered with Chester.
Chester subconsciously wanted to take out his cigarette box. However, at the thought that he was in the hospital, he fought back his urge. Eliza’s behavior now really infuriated him.
