In the meantime, Rachel was still fawning over Elisa. The two paused their chatter when Elisa’s phone
rang.
It’s Sheena Gilio’s number. Elisa responded, “Sheen?”
Rachel grew puzzled. “There’s no way Sheena knows about us! Put it on speaker!”
Elisa frowned.
“Sheena?”
Sheena sighed, “Linda is in the hospital.”
“What? Wait, doesn’t her family own a hospital?”
“True, but I just got on a call with my mother. She told me that her scouts spotted Linda at the Benetts’
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthospital. My mother didn’t owe Rose a favor before, so she went to visit her today.”
“What? Really? Isn’t this good news?!” Rachel beamed over this development, “She’s definitely faking
it again! Have Gareth and the others visited yet?”
Sheena hesitated, “I don’t know, my mother said at the time there were no visitors.” She huffed, “No
one from the Wickam family came. Rose didn’t elaborate on her daughter’s condition, but she did say it
was a coma. And… I also heard a rumor.”
“Spill!”
Elisa brought the phone closer to Rachel.
Sheena whispered, “Someone saw Linda pass out in front of Gareth, but the man didn’t give a finger to
help. It was Linda’s parents who admitted her to the hospital. To make it worst, he left Linda the
moment he saw people approach.”
Elisa and Rachel exchanged glances.
Suspicion grew on Rachel, “No way…why do I always feel that this is a rumor? Didn’t it say that Linda
was Gareth’s lifesaver? But Gareth didn’t return the favor? That doesn’t seem like him. Besides, this
will ruin his public reputation.”
“I’m not sure either… But I feel there is a storm coming for the two of them. The engagement is right
around the corner, and this could be an omen for their downfall.”
Rachel laughed, “It would be perfect if the engagement actually got called off. I can imagine it! Linda
crying like a kid.” The woman sneered, “I hope to witness Linda’s altercation with the whole network! I
just can’t wait to make it public.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElisa crooned, “Don’t worry, things take time.”
“Well, I know that for sure. Just wanted to tell you about it.”
Elisa continued, “How is Carle these few days?”
“The doctor said that he is recovering. He will be discharged from the hospital in another seven to ten
days. It’s just that he has not been very energetic these two days, and it may be because he hasn’t
seen you.”
Elisa sighed, “I have been in touch with him for the past two days. He’s been considerate about my
busy schedule so far.” She brushed away her bangs, “I am worried. After he recovers, I should…”
Sheena cut her off, “Benett, please! Don’t tell him this quick…”
Elisa bit her lip.
Rachel sighed, “That’s right, I can’t talk about it right away,” The lady crossed her arms, “but I must
bring this up sooner or later. What if he finds out?”
