“Why should I see you when you look perfectly fine. Ms. Lane, how are you?”
“I’m all right, just a minor sprain on my waist and arm. I’ll have to trouble Sheila to take care of me.”
“She’s so free, let her do that.”
Davin thought for a moment and decided to break the news to them. “Susan is hospitalized… in this same hospital.”
Susan is full of tricks, it’s better that they know so they can be wary of her.
“What?”
“What happened to her?”
Both Nicole and Sheila were astounded.
“Apparently, she hit her head against the wall.”
The two ladies widened their eyes. The unexpected news had left them totally flabbergasted.
Nicole had a hunch. Evan left the hospital not too long ago and this incident followed. I guess he must have spoken to her about us.
Sheila could connect the dots and figured out what happened too. She heaved a long sigh. “She really needs to get her bad habit cured and stop threatening suicide!”
With that, Shelia turned to Nicole. “What do you think?”
Evan owed Susan a favor and he should repay her but this is too much.
This is emotional blackmail and it’s wrong.
Since Evan has stated his position clearly, then I should come up with a solution too, for the sake of the happiness of my four children and our little family.
“I think you’re right.”
Sheila beamed upon receiving the affirmation from Nicole.
“That’s the spirit! I’m rooting for you.”
Right then, Evan slipped into the room.
Davin was a little surprised to see Evan drop his usual arrogant and hostile look.
Supposedly, with all these happenings, he should look upset, annoyed, and cold. On the contrary, he seems relieved as if a weight has been lifted off his shoulders.
