Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband? novel Chapter 124

Leonard paused slightly, then nodded in agreement.

...

"That's awfully rude! I ordered this especially for my sister."

Eugene picked himself up from the floor, his eyes darkening as he looked at the scattered food. It was clearly ruined beyond saving.

With no time to clean up the mess, he hurriedly dashed to the hospital room, worried about his sister.

He pushed the door open to find his sister lying motionless on the hospital bed, a wave of panic washing over him as he raced to her side, shouting her name.

Mila weakly raised her hand, "I'm alright."

Eugene grasped her hand, letting out a sigh of relief but still worried. He promptly called a doctor to examine her.

Fortunately, she was mostly unhurt, though strict instructions were given to keep her emotions steady and to rest quietly. Her head injury needed careful attention.

"It's all because of our brother. What on earth is he doing here?" Eugene fumed, grumbling as he winced, "Easy, easy, sis, that hurts."

Mila sat up against the headboard, gently applying antiseptic to Eugene's facial wounds with a cotton swab. Her eyes were red with concern and anger.

"That scoundrel! What kind of grudge does he have that he had to go so far?"

Eugene, however, smiled brightly, "As long as you care for me, I'm not in pain. If you're happy, I'm happy too."

Mila shot him a look, but a smile crept onto her face despite herself.

Eugene picked up a crumpled piece of paper from the floor, noticing what it was through the creased edges. He looked over at Mila on the bed.

"Sis?"

Mila took the paper from him and tossed it into the trash can, her tone calm.

"It's nothing. I have plenty more."

"And what about the rest?" Eugene asked, a hint of worry in his voice.
