“I don't know what to do, Roxanne. That's why I'm calling you to ask for your advice,” uttered Madilyn as soon as the call connected.
Even though she was excellent at giving relationship advice, she'd turned into a dummy when she was the one stuck in relationship problems.
After listening to Madilyn's story, Roxanne more or less understood how her best friend felt and comforted her, “Right now, Jonathan hasn't told you what his relationship with Coralie is. Even if she's interested in him, she's nothing but a love rival. You're an outstanding individual, so what are you afraid of? Just stay calm for now since Coralie is just a patient.”
Her words brought Madilyn back to her senses.
Thus, Madilyn headed to Coralie's bed to examine the latter.
Coralie stayed in a double room. In the morning, patient number 38 had been discharged from the hospital. So far, no new patient had moved into the ward, so Coralie was alone in the room.
At that moment, Jonathan was asking Coralie how she was doing.
Grinning, Coralie asked coyly. “Can you peel an orange for me, Mr. Queen?”
“Oh, sure,” replied Jonathan.
His reaction was a little slow, but she thought it was cute.
Just as Jonathan was peeling an orange, Shawn suddenly appeared and opened the door.
Shawn had a phone call with his sister during the morning. When he learned Coralie was injured in an accident after she got off the plane, he immediately bought a flight ticket to Horington.
His expression darkened when he saw a man next to his younger sister.
Upon recognizing the man was Jonathan, he muttered, “Jonathan Queen? So, you're Coralie's friend. Were you not paying attention to the road? Was that how you got into such a serious car accident?”
Before Jonathan realized what was going on, Shawn approached the former with an overwhelming vibe.
“You're...” Jonathan still had no clue about Coralie's identity.
