Chapter 198
Serena had no idea what was wrong with her apology. Just then, Chandler pushed the door open and stepped in.
He inexplicably glanced down the hallway, still confused.
Hugh had rushed over with such concern. But the moment Serena woke up, he
left in anger.
However, he hadn't stopped Chandler from delivering the investigation report. So it seemed like Hugh wanted
him to give it to Serena.
Chandler walked straight to her and relayed the findings.
"Those two thugs were hired by Wendy. As for the attendant at the bistro, he didn't know there was something in
the water. We're still investigating."
Serena's brows furrowed sharply.
Wendy? But the one who had arranged to meet her today was Sarah. So, those two parasites had teamed up
behind her back.
Her gaze turned icy.
"Hold off on reporting the thugs to the police. I'll handle it myself."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith that, she dialed Natalie's number, intending to have her pick her up.
Chandler stopped her before she could make the call.
"I can keep the investigation details under wraps, but Mr. Larson ordered that you're not to leave the hospital
until your full medical checkup comes back clear." Serena's fingers tightened around her phone. She stared at
Chandler in disbelief.
"I'm already awake. | can cto the hospital for the check-up tomorrow myself..."
"Mr. Larson has ordered that without seeing your test results, you're not allowed to leave the hospital. Even if
you leave this ward, the bodyguards outside won't let you go easily.
"Please rest well. If you need anything, you can callanytime. I'll be right outside."
After explaining in a low voice, Chandler exited the room and stood guard outside the door. Through the glass,
Serena could see his shoulder. It felt like she was being imprisoned.
Serena felt the chill cover her again. After thinking it over, she resigned herself to the situation, burying
herself under the covers and closing her eyes.
She muttered to herself, "In the end, when it comes to the Larson family's reputation and your pride, this is what
would happen. All that talk about mutual respect, about freedom in marriage... None of that matters when you're
in a bad mood."
Her voice was barely a whisper, tinged with grievance and cold detachment. She felt like she understood Hugh
even less now.
So, the rumors were true. The unpredictable Mr. Larson wasn't just a baseless tale.
She shut her eyes, trying to sleep and forget everything. But the peace from earlier never returned.
The next day, Serena was finally able to leave the hospital.
Before Chandler could hand her check-up report back, she waved him off and got into the car.
"Keep it for him. | wouldn't want you to get in trouble."
