Chapter 799 Hatred Out of Jealousy
“What would you guys like for lunch?” Sofia changed the subject and beckoned to a server, who came over with a menu. At that, Sofia handed the menu out.
Initially, she had intended to hand it to Skyler, but an idea struck her, and she shifted it toward Shirley, saying, “Here, Shirley—have a look at the menu.”
“I’m good with anything,” Shirley replied. “Alright then…” At that, Sofia said nothing more and ordered sharing plates for everyone.
Surprisingly, it was a rather pleasant lunch—well, for three people at least. Only Shirley felt uncomfortable as though she had a fishbone stuck in her throat the entire meal. Though no one said anything unpleasant, she still felt like she was on a chopping board.
It wasn’t until the end of the lunch that she heaved a sigh of relief and smiled at Garrick. “I’ll have to make a move, President Brennan, Miss Green. I still need to make a trip to the hospital.”
She had ordered some food using her phone, so she had to pick it up and bring it to Wade’s mother.
Meanwhile, Skyler’s face tensed up, looking somewhat grim.
“Alright, you do what you’ve got to do. Gary and I should be leaving as well. We have something to attend to,” said Sofia.
“Are you going to Big Heart Hospital?” Skyler asked on purpose, to which Shirley nodded in affirmation. “Yeah.”
“Give me a ride, then. I happen to have business with their director,” Skyler said.
“Skye, Shirley isn’t going to the hospital to sightsee. Why don’t I give you a lift instead?” There was no way Sofia would allow the two to spend some time alone, right?
Since she had driven Skyler over, she understood that he wanted someone to give him a lift. However, that certain someone could never be Shirley.
