My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 1104

Chapter 1104 You Have A Visitor

Someone poured him a glass of water, “Here, have some water.”

As James took the cup of water, he inadvertently tugged the bloody strips on his back left behind after being whipped. He couldn't help but let out a hiss of pain.

“Don't ever let me out, or else the first thing I'll do is deal with that bastard,” a man yelled. “This is too brutal. No matter what, I used to be a governor. Do they really take us as criminals?

“Walter, let it be...” James said weakly. “We're just prisoners now. No matter how glorious our past was, it's all in the past now.”

He took a sip of water, pulled a small bag of pills from his headboard with his trembling hand, and swallowed the contents.

“The doctor gave me some medicine. Hopefully, I'll feel better tomorrow.”

He let out a sigh and surveyed the place. “I never thought I'd end up in this situation one day.”

“James, I'm sure you've been wronged. You'll definitely be released in the future... It's a pity we...” Walter said, looking devastated. “We've violated the laws of the State.”

“Let's not dwell on this any longer. Everyone should get some rest,” James said. He was a little tired after taking the medicine and barely had the energy to continue chatting with them. “Who knows? They might call us all out to work again later tonight. Let's disperse. Move along. Go and get some rest.”

Just then, a voice of a prison guard suddenly rang out from the entrance. “James, you have a visitor!”

A visitor?

James was just about to lie down on his bed. He was visibly shocked by the news. Could it be Joe?

But on second thought, he figured he wasn't allowed to have visitors since he hadn't been sentenced.

Who could that be then?

He struggled to get out of bed, then proceeded to put on his shoes and stumbled his way over.

The prison guard opened the cell door. His cold and impatient gaze landed on James. “Hurry up! Why are you dawdling?”

James also wanted to quicken his pace, but any slight movement would affect the wounds on his back, causing intense, searing pain.

That left him awfully uncomfortable, especially since he was running a high fever.

His head was heavy and he felt terrible all over.
