Before I was bully awake, could tellt was back in the hospital by the smell it seemed like the same room as before.
Imoord my hand, opened my eyes slowly, and saw Leenac nishing
“Eva, how are you? Do you feel any pain?” he asked, clearly worried.
His cancer reminded me of how he used to care for me in college.
“Can’t you carry some candy if you have low blood sugar? Did you not open the stuff I bought you? There’s a box of chocolates in there!
He wrapped a piece of chocolate and put it in my moth. He then tried to give me water, but I pushed the bottle away.
When the doctor came in, he looked really trustrated
“Eva, didn’t tell you that during chemo.” he started
“I’m sorry, Doctor. I should have taken your advice and carried some candy with me.” I quickly interrupted him
The doctor glanced at Leonard but didn’t say anything more.
Leonard was worried and asked, “s low blood sugar really this serious? Does she faint often?
“I didn’t baint Someone hit me,” explained quickly to wold Leonard questioning the doctor further.
I then told Leonard what had happened that day. Thad hoped he would get the video and that Lily would make a move, but instead, someone targeted me first. It seemed like my luck was running out.
I touched the back of my head and took at my wig, showing a big, painful bump
“I’ve been hurt. We should call the police,” I said “I think someone put a vices on my computer and stole my video.”
Leonard looked worried an explained
“I’ll call the police right now,” he promised “Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone hurt you!
Even though he sounded determined, I couldn’t smile
11 something bad happened at Harmon Group and he didn’t even notice was knocked out, wasn’t sure he could really protect
just as he was about to make the cal, his phone rang Amer listening, Leonard quickly stood up, looking alarmed.
“Tom turned himself in? He’s the one who hurt Exa?” Leonard asked, shocked
“Whisbe now? Did he admit everything?” Leon and asked quickly.
“okay, I’m going to the police station now,” Leonard said and hung up the phone.
I put on my shoes and pot out of bed.
“Let’s pa.Ineed to be the too the one who got hurt,” sadly
Leonard didn’t want me to leave the hospital and wanted me to stay for marcherla
At the police station, Tom admited everything. He confessed that he had intentionally put a virus on the computers in the design department and that he attacked me because he felt guilty
I asked to see Tom, but they wouldn’t let me
“They said Tom was angry that you became a director because you’re a woman, and he wanted to stop you from finishing the project
“He also refuses to see you or anyone from the company. You should talk to a layer about filing for damages,” he suggested.
Since Tom was just a designer, he couldn’t cover the cost of the whole project. He’d probably end up in jail
“Officer, Tom was drinking with us that night, and he was really drunk. How could he have gone back to the office? 1 asked.
The officer Isoked at the report and said, “Tom claims he was pretending to be drunk. Some people can handle their drinks better than they let an. You might not have noticed
