Chapter 23


    John knew what the answer was once he noticed Zack looking away. He sneered, but he didn’t expose


    Zack. A momentter, Sophia got her answer too, so she sighed quietly and looked away.


    Feeling awkward, Zack stood up and changed the topic. “Um, I got our dinner, so have it while it’s hot.”


    He ced the food on her table and opened the lids.


    It was nd, to say the least. There wasn’t even any color in the food, just like Sophia’s face. “Hey,


    what is this? How am I supposed to eat this?” Sophia was irked.


    Zack red at her. “Your stomach needs rest, so light food is all you can eat. Don’tin and stuff it


    down. Once you get better, you can eat whatever you want.” Turning around, he then uncovered what


    he bought for himself and John.


    Sophia was vexed now, so sheined, “What’s this? What are you guys eating?”


    Zack looked at her innocently. “Seafood and a lot of meat. Why?” Sophia glowered at him, but Zack


    ignored her and went on with setting up their dinner before inviting John. “Dig in, boss. Our stomachs


    are healthy, so we can eat whatever we want.”


    With gritted teeth, Sophia red at Zack, while John ignored them. He tucked into his food before


    telling Zack, “I’ll be going for an appointment tomorrow night. You don’t have toe with me, so stay


    here.”


    Sophia was surprised. “I can be discharged tomorrow,” she said.


    John looked at her. “You’d better listen to the doctor’s orders.”


    Sophia nodded. “I did ask the doctor, and all I have to do is get some injection, then it’ll heal up if I rest.


    I don’t have to be hospitalized that long.”


    John frowned as per usual. “Zack, verify that with the doctor tomorrow.”

    He doesn’t trust me? Sophia put on a long face.


    Zack was digging in happily. “Sure. I’ll ask the doctor after this.”


    She looked at her porridge and veggies, then she looked at them having seafood and meat. Damn.


    What’s the use of money if you can’t have good food?


    Sophia didn’t feel too happy, so she didn’t eat much. After two bites, she put her spoon down and


    leaned back on the bed. It was a luxurious ward, but she didn’t feel at home here. John left after


    finishing his dinner, saying he had business to settle. As for what it was, Sophia didn’t want to know.


    After cleaning their stuff away, Zack asked Sophia, “Did the doctor really say you can get discharged?”


    Sophia grunted. “Yeah. I just need some injection, and the rest depends on me. I can just heal up at


    home. No hospitalization needed.”


    Zack nodded. “Yeah, that’s better anyway. No ce like home, am I right? At least you feel better at


    home.”


    After giving it some thought, Sophia turned to Zack. “Who’s your boss going on an appointment with


    tomorrow night?”


    Zack sat down on the sofa. “Not sure, but it’s probably with Infinity Group.” Then he quickly added,


    “Remember the woman you saw back at the beach? She works with Infinity Group. She obviously likes


    the boss, so look out.”


    Sophia sneered. “Why should I? Does this have anything to do with me?” However, she still gave it a


    thought. Zack didn’t notice that, nor did he care, so he went back to his mobile game. Sophia took her


    phone, and a n started forming in her mind.


    When the nurse came to pull the syringe out, Zack asked if Sophia could be discharged the next day.


    The nurse answered while tidying up the apparatus, “Yes.


    Another injection tomorrow, and you can be discharged, but…” She looked at Sophia. “You need to


    take it slow and heal up. Your condition is severe, so if you don’t keep an eye on it, it will get worse.”


    Sophia grunted. “Yeah, I understand.” After the nurse was gone, Sophia arched her eyebrow. “I’ll be


    discharged tomorrow afternoon. You have nothing to do, right? Come pick me up, then.”
