Chapter 816


    ?


    Skr shot Joe a nce before heading off to change clothes.


    After about ten minutes, the two of them got into the car.


    On the car ride, Rowan called Joe. He had likely received a call from the hospital as well.


    Joe took the call on speaker.


    Rowan said, "Do you know Jenny had a car ident? I just got a call from the Apollo Hospital. They said they had contacted everyone else. Since you''re listed as the first contact in her phone, I figured they must have reached out to you first."


    Joe responded, "Yes, I''m on my way to the hospital."


    Skr nced out the window, distracted and not really listening to their conversation.


    Feeling that Skr was too distant, Joe took her hand and intertwined his fingers with hers.


    Skr looked at their sped hands and was puzzled by Joe''s disy of affection.


    "I''m on my way to the hospital too. Since that''s the case, you go ahead. I won''t go. Oh, and by the way, Jenny has changed a lot in the four years since she went to college. You''ve done enough for her."


    Rowan now thought the past few years were quite pointless. He realized he had been foolish for holding on to his obsession with Jenny.


    He was probably too young and impulsive back then, always wanting to protect the vulnerable. Jenny had happened to present herself as someone who seemed weak, so he instinctively wanted to protect her.


    When Rowan saw the face from downstairs that day, heter recalled that the person seemed older. But from where he stood, it was hard to see clearly.


    In any case, Jenny had secrets.


    Joe replied calmly, "Okay, I got it."


    "Oh, one more thing... The Ruell family is also staying at Apollo Hospital. You might run into them. You... I don''t like to meddle, but I have to say, Skr is a great woman. That''s all I wanted to say. Bye."


    The call ended abruptly with a dial tone.


    Skr was surprised by Rowan''sstment. She hadn''t expected him toplement her while talking to Joe on the phone.


    Before long, they arrived at Apollo Hospital.


    The hospital wasrge, with reporters gathered at the entrance.


    As Skr entered, she put on her sunsses. She didn''t want to attract any attention.


    Seeing her actions, Joe also put on his sunsses.


    After entering the hospital, they went straight to Jenny''s ward.


    They hadn''t gotten many details over the phone, but once they arrived, they realized how badly Jenny had been injured.


    A doctor exined Jenny''s condition


    to them. She had injuries on her forehead and legs, and the wound on her leg was particrly severe, leaving a scar about four inches long. Content belongs to


    UMS


    The wound was deep, and she would need rehabilitation therapy to avoid affecting her ability to walk.


    They also learned that the police had


    left about ten minutes ago. They came to gather information. The driver had fled the scene, and they were currently searching for the vehicle involved.


    Fortunately, Jenny''s life was not in danger.


    Seeing Jenny lying in bed, Skr decided not to mention what she had seen earlier. Saying anything now would feel like kicking someone when they were down.


    Joe then called Paul to handle some follow-up matters.


    A few momentster, Joe received a call and left the room, leaving Skr alone. With nothing else to do, she watched Jenny.


    The doctor had said Jenny would


    wake up soon and that her current unconscious state was due to abination of anesthesia and a concussion from the ident.


    Beside the pillowy Jenny''s phone, its screen almostpletely shattered.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    Skr noticed the phone because WhatsApp notifications kept popping up. asionally, there were also iing calls.
