Xante was brought out of her trance when Sunny called out to her. She got into the elevator with them.
Inside, Xante texted her subordinates to look into why Melinda and Lilin were in the hospital.
Sunny was a little upset when he saw her on the phone, but he did not say anything as he knew she was a workaholic.
Ding!
Sunny wheeled Maxwell out with Xante following behind them when the elevator door opened.
However, she then saw several men in black dragging Marvin into the elevator.
'What's going on? What's the boss' adopted father doing here? He looks like he's being brought here against his will,' thought Xante with narrowed eyes.
…
Emily, upon her request, was transferred from her VIP ward to a general ward. Her VIP ward was too close to Maxwell's, and she would rather stay in an ordinary ward to be as far away from him as possible.
The nurse left after settling Emily in her general ward. Melinda and Lilin closed the door before walking up to Emily.
Emily was in a daze, and she did not look good.
Melinda knew the reason, so she sat down on the edge of Emily's bed and held her hand. "You saw Maxwell, didn't you? I must say, you two really are destined to meet each other. You wanted to change your ward because you wanted to be as far away from him as possible, yet you managed to run into him in the corridor."
Emily smiled mockingly. "I don't see it as destiny. It's more like a curse."
Melinda sighed. She did not know what to say after that.
"Even so, that doesn't mean you have to get out today! You should stay at least three days. I'll help you get discharged once the doctor says you're okay in three days," said Melinda helplessly.
Emily knew Melinda was worried about her. Thus, as much as she did not want to stay, she simply let the whole matter go.
'Three days will pass soon enough. I won't run into that man if I just stay in my room,' she thought.
"Fine. Three days it is."
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Lilin quickly ran to open it.
Several men in black held Marvin at the door.
"Miss Lilin, we've brought the man you asked for," said one of them respectfully.
