Chapter 40: Daddy, Don't Go

Millie left the ward, hid in the stairwell, and called Gavin.

"Gavin, I suddenly felt very uncomfortable and got admitted to Bayview General Hospital." Millie's tone was weak, as if she was really in pain. "Now my stomach is very painful, and there is no one taking care of me. Can you come to the hospital to see me?"

Gavin said calmly, "You called me half an hour ago. Why didn't you mention that you were admitted then?"

Millie immediately thought of an excuse. Her tone lowered and there was a hint of helplessness and disappointment in her tone as she said, "You realized... Didn't I give call you multiple times? You didn't answer them. At that time, I was on my way to the hospital. At first, I wanted you to accompany me, but when you called me back, I had already finished the procedures. I didn't mention the transfer anymore."

She also took a deep breath and pretended that she was still in pain.
