Chapter ２１９

Following her line of sight, Joe Wright walked in quickly and picked her up in a natural hug.

She waited on a bench in the hallway while Joe Wright walked Keira through her exam.

She had just closed her eyes when her phone suddenly vibrated.

A letter in the mail.

Alex Brown had been admitted to the hospital yesterday.

It was a short line, but it seemed to drop a stone on a calm lake, causing ripples.

The sender's field was garbled, and she wondered who would have informed her of Alex Brown' whereabouts.

Eric Chan, or Alex Brown himself?

Both seemed unlikely, and as she wondered, she replied to the email, trying to ask for more specifics, but unfortunately, no further response came.

As long as Alex Brown was safe, even if she couldn't contact him, she had the courage to endure the loneliness and miss him.

Putting her phone away, she leaned back in her chair and imagined what Alex Brown was doing at the moment.
