Chapter 116 A Sudden Call : "Alright, I'm heading off. Let me know if you need any help," Jasmine said. "Got it." Since she was on overnight duty tonight, Nella planned to use dinnertime to stop by the Blessed Paw Clinic to check on Marshal. After a quick tidy-up, she headed out to the vet. The rideshare she took brushed past Alfred's eye-catching Bentley. At that moment, Alfred was holding his phone, his gaze resting on Nella's contact name. Finished As if sensing something, he suddenly looked up, just in time to see a rideshare car pass by him.
He stared at it for a few seconds before slowly withdrawing his gaze. After parking the car, he still dialed Nella's number. The phone rang twice before Nella picked up. "Hello?" Since that unpleasant conversation the other night, Alfred had been deliberately avoiding Nella. Hearing her voice so suddenly, a wave of bitterness rose in his chest. "Hey... I came to your hospital to change my dressing." Alfred found an excuse, speaking casually, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary. He tried hard not to sound too deliberate.

There was a two-second pause on the other end before she said, "Okay. Just go to the treatment room and have the nurse change it for you." Sensing that Nella was about to hang up, Alfred hurriedly added, "Have you eaten? I haven't. Once you're done, let's eat together." The second half came out a little cautiously. His heart tightened without him realizing it. 1/3 10:15 Fri, Jan 9 Chapter 116 A Sudden Call "No. I'm not at the hospital right now." : Hearing that she wasn't at the hospital again, Alfred's heart sank.
94 Finished The first thing that flashed through his mind was that she'd gone to see that man who smelled like patchouli. A surge of uncontrollable anger rose in his chest, and he blurted out, "You went to see that man again?" There was a brief silence on the other end. "Who?" Alfred felt his reason being battered by a rampaging wave of jealousy. His voice turned cold. "Nella, I saw it! The guy you were chatting so happily with outside the infusion room that night. You went to see him, didn't you?" He thought Nella would deny it or at least explain a little.
Instead, after he finished, she admitted it without hesitation. "Yes. I'm with him right now. If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up. I've got something to take care of." "Nella-" Before Alfred could finish, Nella hung up first. He stared blankly at the disconnected screen, at the dull beeping tone coming from the phone. Anger mixed with surging jealousy shot straight to his head. "Hah! You just pretend I don't exist, huh?" Bang! He hurled the phone hard at the windshield. The screen shattered instantly into a spiderweb of cracks.
Meanwhile, at the pet hospital, Nella felt a lingering sense of unease. That guilty feeling of keeping a dog behind Alfred's back surfaced in her chest for no reason. But once she thought it through, she couldn't help frowning. 2/3 10:15 Fri, Jan 9 Chapter 116 A Sudden Call ผล 94 Finished "What am I feeling guilty for?" She muttered to herself. "It's not like I'm keeping it at his place." At that moment, Marshal, who no longer needed to stay in a cage, seemed to understand her words.
