Chapter 599
“The E.R. said that they called the police when they brought her here, but they didn’t say how she got hurt
“She must have been beaten up by someone. Otherwise, how do you explain her injuries?!”
“Don’t celebrities have agents, bodyguards, and stuff? Normal people wouldn’t be able to get close to them, so how the hell did someone even beat her up?”
“That’s for celebs who are popular now! For a washed-up one like Yvette, what agent would care about her, especially with the huge scandal that got exposed so recently?”
Larissa was originally listening to the gossip as a way to relieve her boredom, but when the name “Yvette” popped out of a nurse’s mouth, she froze at once. Once she had connected the previous dialogues to this, she was very surprised.
Yvette was beaten up by someone? But who would do that?
Like Larissa, Gary’s attention was also drawn by the nurses’ conversation. He slowed down until he decided to just stop walking.
There were only two nurses who were in charge of Larissa. But as the only VIP patient on this floor until today, Larissa’s and Gary’s presence was known to every nurse here. They were quickly noticed by the chatting nurses.
The head nurse in charge of Larissa, Anya Bennett, hurriedly put down her work and left the station with some nervousness, while also asking in a pleasant manner. “What brings you here? is there something you need? If there is, just press the button in your room we will
go over to you.”
Larissa smiled faintly and waved her off. “No. there was nothing. The doctor has allowed me to leave the bed, so I came out for a stroll”
It was only then that Anya allowed herself to relax. “Do you need me to take you along for the stroll? She looked at Larissa before looking at Gary.
“Sure.” Larissa said kindly,
Her answer surprised Gary a little, and he looked down at her for a moment but said nothing. Anya took the lead, introducing the structure of the floor as well as the purpose of every room they passed by. Larissa listened attentively. After going one round around the floor, she pretended to ask nonchalantly, “There seems to be someone new in the ward next to mine.”
“Yes.” Anya nodded once, suddenly lowering her voice as she said, “It’s that actress, Yvette Xander. Do you know her?”
Although Larissa had already guessed, she was still a little panicked when her guess was confirmed to be true. She spent six years healing her trauma all the way on the other side of the globe, and she had barely managed to walk out of her traumatic childhood grief when the recent car accident made her fearful of Yvette and anyone from the Seymour family all over again.
To her, they were all insane. There was nothing that they could not do in this world.
Larissa subconsciously bit down on her lip, her uninjured right hand clutching at the armrest of the wheelchair. Her knuckles lost their color due to how light her grip was.
Now that Yvette was so close to her, even if she was heavily injured-Larissa could not be sure if this was another scheme against her. Perhaps her so-called “wounds” were only another act for her to see
She turned Swillly to cast a pleading look at Gary, whose heart sank at once upon receiving her signal.
“No, we don’t,” Gary said, before bending down a little to remind Larissa gently. “Alright, we’ve been out for quite a while now. It’s time to go back”
After letting Anya know, Gary pushed Larissa back to her ward. When he passed by Yvelle’s ward, he deliberately hastened his footsteps.
Mrs. Griffin was in the middle of cleaning. While Larissa was out, she changed the sheets into hest ones, and she also used disinfectant to mop the floor.
When she heard the noise of their return, she looked up at the door. “Why are you back so soon? She did not expect this to happen. “The door isn’t even dry yell
Gary did not answer her question, only looked around before asking coldly, “Where’s Lewis?
