The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 713

Chapter 713

Knock! Knock!

A knock was suddenly heard outside the door.

“Mister Lucas, it’s me,” said Edmund.

Lucas snapped out of his trance and said, “Come in.”

Only then did Edmund dare to enter Luna’s room.

The tired-looking Lucas pinched the space between his eyebrows. “How’s Joey doing?”

“The doctor said Mister Joey’s head injury is quite serious as there were signs of him experiencing a mild concussion. After stitching up his head and giving him some medicine, the doctor advised us to bring Mister Joey home to recuperate since he didn’t seem to be too happy to be staying in the hospital. It’s best if Mister Joey can stay in a place where he’s most familiar while he’s healing. The only precaution we need to take note of is to make sure no water comes in contact with his wound and to bring him back to the hospital every day for the nurse to change his bandage.”

Lucas narrowed his eyes. ‘That poor kid. He has been injured so many times, with each time more serious than the previous, ever since he was adopted by this family.’

“Did the doctor say what was the thing that caused the injury?”

“He said it doesn’t look like Mister Joey was cut by a weapon and that his injury was most likely caused by him bumping his head into a table with sharp corners.”

Lucas knitted his brows together. He had just received confirmation about his suspicion and yet he could not help but feel disappointed. ‘So it turns out Anya was lying and Corinne wasn’t the one who hurt Joey after all.’

At the same time, he was feeling a little relieved because there was a slim chance Anya was not the one who hurt Joey either. The little kid could have accidentally bumped into a table and Anya decided to use this to frame Corinne.
