Chapter 156: Irritation
Sylvia was still in the hospital room with the man the next morning.
He had woken up yesterday morning, and Sylvia was about to collapse from exhaustion. She had managed to contact her assistant yesterday and asked him to investigate the man’s identity. So far, there had been no news. Sylla didn’t know if it was because the man’s identity was too complex or if he simply wasn’t around, making it impossible to find out who he was.
Sylla rubbed her temples wearily, glancing at the clock. It was almost time for her to start work. She decided to call a nurse to look after the man and then get ready as she was about to stand up, the man woke up.
“You’re awake. I’ll call the doctor to come and check on you.”
Sylvia immediately called the doctor over, who began examining the man. Itis injuries weren’t too severe, but the most important issue was the humor.
y for work. Just
“You were lucky last night, I found you and brought you here. By the way, do you live any family? There’s a humor In your body, and without your family, it’s hard to communicate.
“It’s okay. The tumor in my body is benign. I’ve already made an appointment with the doctor for surgery. Thank you for saving me last night. My name is Miles.”
The man’s voice was hoarse, understandable since he had been unconscious for so long. It would take him some time to fully recover, which was perfectly normul Sylvianodded, “Got it contact your family to take care of you have to go to work now. I’E come see you after work. If you need any help, here’s my business card. You can call me *** Sylvia wasn’t particularly compassionate, but since she had saved the man, she felt respons Ble until his family arrived.
“No need. I can take care of myself.”
Hearing his distant words, Sylvia didn’t say anything more. She just placed her business card on the table. “call me if you need anything
with that, Sylvia rubbed her shoulders and left the hospital room,
After Sylvia left the room, the man’s gaze fell on the business card lett on the table. He hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it. He looked at the name and position on the card with deep eyes.
“I’m furious! Let me tell you, this morning, before you even arrived, Cyril came over, causing a scene, insisting on meeting you. He wanted to explain things between him and Carina. What’s there to explain? Everyone knows what happened between them. Why bother explaining to you? He even hoped you wouldn’t be angry, saying he would immediately cut ties with Carlina and that child was just an accident”
Today, Juliet was even more emotional than yesterday. Sylvia had spent the entire afternoon yesterday trying to calm her down, only to be irritated by Cyril so easily this morning Sylvia was starting to feel a headache coming on.
“Okay, okay. You know what kind of person he is. Why are you so angry? Look, I’m not as angry as you, am I? stop being mad. Let’s finish today’s work. We haven’t even finished yesterday’s work yet. Think about it, delaying work for two days because of a man. Is that appropriate?”
“Of course it’s not appropriate, but you see how unreasonable he is. Do you know that many people are discussing the relationship between you and Cyrill in private today? Some even say it’s because of you. Guess what joke they’re making about you two? How can you treat them kindly? If Cyril didn’t agree at the beginning, he could have refused!” Juliet ranted on, her face turning red with anger.
Sylvia had no choice but to go along with Juliet’s words. The two of them cursed Cyril back and forth for awhile until pet’s mood improved slightly
When Juliet calmed down, she noticed that Sylvia was wearing the same clothes as yesterday.
She looked at Sylvia strangely “What’s wrong with you? Don’t you never wear the same clothes two days in a row?
“On my way home last night, 1 accidentally ran into an injured person and took him to the hospital. I stayed there all night, so I haven’t changed clothes yet.”
Sylvia sighed and briefly explained what had happened last night to Juliet, who widened her eyes in surprise.
“No way! You saved a man? Could it be that he deliberately collapsed in front of your house, waiting for you to save him? I’ll go with you this afternoon to see. If this person has any ulterior motives, I’ll help you!
Sylvia couldn’t help but smile. Juliet was taking it too seriously.
“Don’t worry about him taking advantage of me. I saw last night that he was wearing custom–made clothes that cost a fortune. He must be someone”
As Sylvia spoke, she realized something wasn’t right. If the man looked well–dressed and respectable, why was he hing there in such a miserable state? Could he have been set up just like she was?
“What are you thinking? Do you think his identity is suspicious? is someone trying to harm him?”
Juliet asked curiously.
Sylvia nodded seriously she regretted being so impulser last night. Just then, her phone rang, displaying a standar umber Sylvia instinctively thought of the man in the hospital
After hesitating for a moment, Sylvia answered the call. A hoarse voce came through the phone.
“Hello, Sylvia This is Miles. I’ve contacted the people I needed to. I’ll be leaving soon. As for the favor Lowe you and the money, I’ll remember it I’ll transter the money to your account later. If you ever need anything, you can call this number.”
He was leaving soon, which surprised Sylvia a bit. But she didn’t want to get to involved with this person. “It’s okay, just go. Be careful on the road. As for the money, it doesn’t
“What goes around comes around I owe you this favor for saving me lepo you. And I’ll the money you spent. It’s amule
