A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2914

"I guess. The doctors said that I can be discharged after a few days of rest," Joan told Abelyn excitedly.

The latter narrowed her eyes, a murderous aura emanating off of her.

"Where's Dustin? He didn't come with you?" Joan asked, cocking her head to one side.

What?Does she miss Dustin or something? Abelyn swallowed back her rising disgust and wrath before forcing her voice to stay calm as she replied, "Oh, he's been busy lately, so I came alone."

The truth was that Dustin had no idea that she had come to visit Joan.

"Ms. Watts, it's time for your medication." A nurse entered the room, her nose wrinkling in dissatisfaction at the sight of Abelyn. "What are you doing here? Family visiting hours are long over."

Joan hurriedly explained, "She's my friend."

"Friends aren't allowed in here either. All visitors are required to leave the hospital before eleven o'clock at night." The nurse gave Abelyn a suspicious sidelong glance.

Knowing that she wouldn't be able to argue with the nurse, Abelyn decided to take her leave. She hadn't expected the hospital staff to be so petty regarding curfew.

Joan furrowed her eyebrows together as she watched her friend leave, feeling regretful that she couldn't talk with her more.

The nurse thought otherwise. She had seen many visitors come and go in all her years of working at the hospital, and had learned to see through people's facades and figure out their true intentions.

"Ms. Watts, I think it's best if you don't get too close to that woman," she advised her patient.

Huh? Joan's eyes widened. But Abelyn's my best friend who has always been willing to sacrifice her own life for melWhy would the nurse say such a thing?

She stared up at the nurse in confusion.

"It's just a suggestion." The nurse left with those parting words, sighing as she closed the door behind her. Sometimes, ignorance was bliss.

Meanwhile, Joan hadn't taken any of the nurse's advice to heart at all. In her eyes, friendship and sisterhood were more important than anything else. Even if Abelyn ended up hurting her, she would always choose to forgive Abelyn.
