Chapter 219 Fessing Up
Steven fell into silence but did not reject Genevieve’s request.
“Sure.”
That drew a faint smile from Genevieve, who replied, “Thank you, Steven.”
After she finished a bowl of chicken oatmeal, Steven summoned Timothy to her ward.
Timothy was surprised to see Genevieve in such a calm mood. After he inspected her charts, he told her that there were no serious health issues to worry about. “You can be discharged tomorrow if you want.”
“Tomorrow it is, then. I don’t like the smell of hospitals.” Then, Genevieve asked Steven to help her settle the hospital discharge procedures.
Steven left the ward soon after.
Before he exited the hospital, he called Armand and reported Genevieve’s condition to him as well as her desire to leave the hospital the next day.
After some time, Armand said, “I’ll fetch her from the hospital tomorrow morning.”
The next morning, Genevieve was in decent spirits when she awoke.
She washed up in the restroom and changed into a set of new clothes and shoes that Steven had had someone send over the night before. After that, she ordered herself some breakfast.
Right then, someone knocked on her door. Cooper had turned up before Armand.
He was wearing a light gray shirt and a pair of rimless spectacles. With his oblong face shape and the lack of any light on his face, he came across as rather cold.
“Genev,” Cooper called out as he hurried into the room.
He seemed to have something more to say to her, yet nothing came out of his mouth for a long time.
“Take a seat.” Genevieve tilted her jaw toward a chair opposite her before returning her attention to an apple she was peeling deftly.
Rings of apple peel fell on the floor.
