The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 247

Chapter 0247 Judys POV My phone rang , interrupting my sparring lessons with Matt 1 grabbed my phone out of my gym bag that sat under a tree When I looked at the caller ID , my heart was in my throat .

It was Eliza at the hospital .

With a racing heart , I swiped the green talk button and pressed the phone to my cheek .

Hello ? I said , trying not to sound as nervous as I felt .

Hey , Judy .

Its Elizabeth , she said on the other end .

Im calling regards to Nan Rugby .

Hi … I said , swallowing the lump in my throat .

Is everything okay ? Yes , everything is great .

She pulled through nicely .

Shes awake now and is on antibiotics .

She will be leaving tomorrow afternoon to return home .

Will you be able to escort her ? Of course , I said quickly .

Ill be there tomorrow .

Thank you so much .

Of course .

Im glad I could help her , Eliza said thoughtfully .

See you tomorrow .

With that , she hung up .

I let out a breath I hadnt known I was holding .

Everything okay ? I spun around when I heard a nearby voice , my heart hammering against my chest .

My eyes grew wide when I saw Gavin walking towards me .

I didnt even know he returned home and when his eyes found mine , a small smile tipped the corner of his lips .

I could see concern in his eyes as he studied my face , but for the most part , he kind of looked pleased to see me .

Was I being ridiculous to think for a minute that maybe he was pleased to see me ? Maybe this was more than what I initially thought it was ? I mean , we had barely seen each other in days … this was the first time we were able to actually speak to one another , so maybe I was a fool .

Yeah , I managed to squeak out as I shoved my phone into my pocket .

It was just Elizabeth … Hows Nan doing ? He asked , stopping only an inch away from me.
