President's Contract Wife novel Chapter 203

The atmosphere in the room is frozen. The nurse is discerning. She points at the remote on the bedside cabinet, “Miss Morrison, the TV remote is here. If you feel bored, you can watch TV. And if there is something, please call me.”

Worrying about the situation at home, Nina Morrison says, “Thanks, I feel better now. Can I leave the hospital now?”

The nurse shakes her head, “You are poisoned by knockout drops, and you need to be observed closely for 24 hours before discharge from the hospital.”

The nurse thinks that Nina Morrison is worrying about the expensive hospitalization expenses, so she adds, “Don’t worry, Miss Morrison. All the hospitalization expenses have been pre-paid by that gentleman.”

Nina Morrison bites her lips. Now, she owes Lucien Gray a favor.

The case is complicated and confusing. The police preliminary believe that it is revenge murder. The case is currently under further trail. The victim was rescued by her friend in time and is now out of danger...”

Seeing Nina Morrison staring at the TV, the nursing worker purses her lips, “Another publicity stunt. If this victim didn’t have a powerful boyfriend, the police wouldn’t work so hard on this case. There are countless wrongful convictions which have no clues. For this knockout drops case, they just catch the suspect in no time. That’s because the big shot behind called the police chief many times and ordered that they must investigate this case strictly.”

The nursing worker finishes talking. She looks at Nina Morrison’s bed and suddenly realizes something. She smiles embarrassingly, “I'm just kidding. Don’t take it to heart. Such revenge murderers should be cut into pieces!”

Nina Morrison smiles. The nursing worker finally recognizes that she is the victim on the news...
