This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 760

Chapter 760 Thorough Work

“Of course. I wouldn’t dream of running away from my responsibility,” the woman promised with a trepidatious nod.

Tom looked away from her, turning instead to stare fretfully at the doors to the emergency room, hoping that Toby would be wheeled out soon.

After getting Tom and the woman’s statements, the police left the hospital for the accident scene to retrieve the car. The police added that he would return as soon as the patient was awake to work out a settlement between the patient and the woman who caused the accident, but that would all have to wait until the car was taken care of.

In the event that no settlement could be reached, the police would have to pass the case on to the police station and let the law take over.

Just then, the woman in the wheelchair maneuvered herself over to where Tom was standing and called out gently, “Excuse me, mister.”

Tom looked down and eyed her with no small amount of hostility. “What do you want?”

There was a gleam in her eyes as she asked curiously, “I was wondering if you were speaking to that gentleman’s girlfriend while we were on our way here?” As she said this, she glanced at the emergency room, indicating that the gentleman she referred to was Toby.

Upon hearing this, Tom frowned deeply and countered icily, “What’s it to you?”

She lowered her gaze and let out a sheepish laugh. “Nothing, I was just curious is all.”

“Huh.” Tom snorted, then pointed out in a withering tone, “Maybe you should devote your curiosity to other things, like the consequences that will befall you now that you’ve sent my boss into the emergency room!” Then, he broke eye contact and returned to staring at the emergency room doors, no longer paying any attention to the woman.

She clenched her fists on top of the wheelchair armrests, and the fearful look on her face slowly faded away, replaced by a cold and menacing grimace as she eyed Tom venomously.

However, she quickly retracted her outward hostility toward him and made as if she was unaffected by the assistant’s icy rebuff, then lowered her head and stayed mute for the rest of the time.

For a while, the hallway was filled with a heavy silence, and the air grew eerily still.

After what felt like a long time, the emergency room doors finally swung open.

When Tom heard this, he quickly stood up and walked over to the doors with the woman wheeling herself after him.

Presently, Tim was making his way through the doors, taking off his surgical mask as he did so.

At the sight of this, Tom reached out to stop the doctor so that he could ask about Toby’s condition, but before he could get his words out, the woman in the wheelchair suddenly piped up, “Doctor, is everything alright?”

Infuriated by the woman’s interruption, Tom frowned and shot her a hard look. But on account of the fact that he had been about to ask the same thing she did, he decided to swallow his anger for now.

Tim looked down at the woman, and there was a strange glimmer in his eyes as he asked, “Who are you?”
