My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 244

I was a bit confused at Hendrix's suggestion. Monique was cleared to be discharged and walked around. But would Josiah be able to join us?

Therefore, I asked, "Is Doctor Saunders allowed to walk around freely?"

"He's a doctor. He should know what he can do." Hendrix only replied lightly.

Hearing this response, I didn't know what else to say. Still, I cringed at the thought of treating friends of our own to a meal together.

Although everyone was invited for the meal, and they should really try to get to know each other, I still couldn't help feeling the embarrassment in advance.

Hendrix made a reservation for a spacious private room at a restaurant. When we settled down in the private room and the food was served, the situation was just as awkward as I had imagined. Ian and Sawyer were talking with each other. They seemed to have endless topics to talk about.

Monique only focused on eating, and Austin was busy attending Andrea.

However, Andrea was trying very hard to help Hendrix with the food while Hendrix was busy putting food on my plate.

It was dreary.

Everyone at the table basically knew each other-other than Ian-but they rarely came across each other on normal days.

Josiah was seated beside Monique, who was next to me. His face was still a little pale as he hadn’t fully recovered from the accident.

He usually wouldn't talk much. Likewise, he was barely talking this time. His dark eyes fell on Monique, and he noticed that she was eating uncontrollably. Josiah frowned and commented, "Eating too much will burden your stomach."

Monique raised her head and looked at him. Then, she replied flatly without many expressions, "Okay. Noted."

Following that, she continued eating. Monique was being her usual self.

Josiah frowned, finally realizing that his effort went to waste.

Meantime, Andrea glanced at me and asked gracefully, "Miss Reid, aren't you going to introduce your friend to us?"
