Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2897

Eugene’s voice was weak. “I felt much better when I woke up this morning. I’m still a little dizzy, but it’s not a big deal.”

Sylvia’s tone grew serious. “I just got a call from the police. They said the person who hit you lost control because he was drunk, but I have a feeling it isn’t that simple. You need to be careful and watch out for yourself.”

Eugene was silent for a moment before replying, “Okay, I understand. Thank you, Sylvia. And thank you for yesterday—thank you for bringing me to the hospital. The nurse told me you handled all the paperwork.”

Sylvia smiled lightly. “You’ve helped me before too. We’re friends, so there’s no need to keep track of who owes whom.”

Eugene hesitated, then asked, “After my mom arrived yesterday, she didn’t give you a hard time, did she?”

“No, she didn’t.”

“That’s good.”

“Just focus on recovering. Don’t overthink anything else.”

“I will.”

No sooner had Eugene hung up than Evelyn walked in, carrying a bouquet of fresh flowers. “Mr. Winters, how are you feeling?”

Eugene’s personal assistant stood up and tactfully left the room.

“I’ll just put these here.” Evelyn set the flowers on the table.

Eugene’s tone was distant. “You shouldn’t have, Evelyn.”

Evelyn’s smile faltered. “Mr. Winters, can we talk?”

“Of course. I actually wanted to clear things up with you as well,” Eugene replied.

Evelyn took a deep breath and sat in the chair beside his bed, her delicate face sincere. “Mrs. Winters has always tried to match us up. I could tell you weren’t interested, so I never took it seriously. That night… it wasn’t just your fault. I was drunk too. I have to take responsibility as well.”
