PopularNovel"It's nothing." George shook his head and silently swallowed the words that had reached his lips. Kate smiled as she watched Eric finish his salad. Then, she gave him another bowl of chicken soup and said, "Eric, you are weak now. You need to replenish your body properly. Just eating salad is not enough; you should drink ssoup." Eric looked at the bowl held in her hand, which contained golden chicken soup with soil floating on top. He instinctively wanted to refuse, but under the expectant eyes of Kate, he still reached out and took it. He furrowed his brows tightly and coldly drank the soup in one gulp. He felt a sense of resignation. Kate couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Eric ... " Just as she was about to speak, her phone buzzed. Kate stopped mid-sentence. She glanced down at her phone, and the look in her eyes changed instantly. She quickly grabbed the phone and glanced at Eric subconsciously. Eric had just put down the bowl. His cold gaze fell on Kate's phone. A hint of emotion stirred in his eyes, and he asked, “Is everything okay?" Kate smiled and shook her head. She said, “Just a junk message. Honey, you should rest well. I'll go to the bathroom." Eric's deep gaze fixed on Kate's face. After a long time, he faintly responded with a grunt. With Eric's consent, Kate immediately stood up and walked quickly toward the door of the ward. Eric unbuttoned the buttons of his hospital gown. His eyes carried a hint of hostility as he picked up his phone and opened a program. There was a message there. It wrote, 'Kate, I heard that you stabbed Eric, and he's in the Silverwood Hospital? Did that lunatic hurt you? Wait for me, I'm going to the Silverwood Hospital to find you now!' Kate ... That lunatic. Such words sharply pierced Eric's heart. He tightly pressed his lips together. His eyes were filled with turbulent emotions, as if a storm were brewing invisibly. He had installed a program on Kate's phone to monitor her messages and call records. Simon was the one who sent this message. Kate chose to lie to him. She was eager to meet Simon! The resentment and murderous intent in his heart were roaring madly. Eric pressed the centre of his brows hard. His voice was low, cold to the extreme, and filled with deep disappointment. He commanded, "George, follow her." George's heart thumped a little. The disgust he had just suppressed toward Kate surged up again. Could this woman just stop causing trouble for a while? Just when her relationship with Mr. Davison have improve, she starts acting up again. I have to go and see what she's up to! Kate quickly walked out of the ward. She took a look at the message Simon had sent on her phone. A wave of nausea and hatred surged in her stomach. It almost caused Kate to lose control in front of Eric. She was afraid of scaring Eric, so she quickly made up an excuse to leave. The grudges between her and Simon, she wanted to settle them personally, one by one. Someone like Simon wasn't worthy of dirtying Eric's hands, nor was it necessary to disturb Eric's rest because of such a despicable person. Kate went directly to the nurse's station on the first floor. After speaking a few words to the duty nurse, she looked around as if searching for someone. In the shadows, George watched Kate's every move. When Kate wasn't paying attention, he quickly walked to the nurse's station and asked with a stern face, "What did that woman just say to you?" George's solemn expression and commanding presence astounded the on-duty nurse. Instinctively, she responded, "She mentioned that if a man in a gray suit with a hat and sunglasses shows up looking for someone later, instruct him to wait in the stairwell on the first floor." George couldn't help but bursted out a laughter amid his rage. A man searching for her? Other than Simon, George couldn't think of anyone else. She's quite something! While Mr. Davison is in the hospital recuperating from his injuries, this woman is entangled with Simon. What did Mr. Davison see in her that allowed this woman to mistreat him like this? Without hesitation, George directly informed Eric with a menacing look. He said, "Mrs. Davison is currently on the first floor; it appears she intends to meet Simon. What should we do?" George dared not take action without Eric's guidance. Otherwise, Simon might have met his demise over a dozen times. Crack! Eric crushed the cup in his hand. A glint of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and the anger in his heart nearly destroyed his rationale. However, he managed to cling to a shred of clarity. He commanded, "Keep close eyes on her. If she attempts to flee, catch her."
