Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 97

“If you feel so strongly, go pay him a visit at his home,” Yvonne replied coolly.

“Oh, we don’t need to be so formal. When is he coming to the hospital? I could thank him in person then,” Queena said.

The Thompson family was in a league of their own. Queena didn’t even know where they lived, let alone have any hope of getting past their front gate.

Yvonne, munching on an apple, snorted. “Are you addicted to playing the role of the perfect sister? How exactly do you plan on thanking Bennett? By washing yourself up and serving yourself to him on a platter?”
