Chapter 93
Melvin stared at him like he was looking at a lunatic, “You got nothing else to do?”
What’s her point to come if you haven’t made up? Why’s she here today?” Zephyr couldn’t figure out what kind of game they
were playing.
Melvin Ignored him.
“Hey, I’m just checking in on your love life, man,” Zephyr said as he quickly retracted his head when Melvin started to roll up the
window, “Easy, man, you’re gonna give me a concussion.”
Melvin didn’t respond, just started the engine and drove off.
He hadn’t gone far when he saw the taxi Jocelyn had taken stopped at a red light.
He pulled up right beside it, window down, staring at the traffic light ahead, ready to floor it the second it turned green. And he
did, swerving ahead of the taxi and then slamming on the brakes.
“What the hell, man!” the taxi driver yelled out, head popping out of the window, fuming.
Jocelyn glanced up and immediately recognized the car in front, even without seeing the license plate.
Maybe it was a coincidence, maybe not. But that dressing-down was well-deserved.
The driver, still agitated, sped up.
The taxi frequently overtook other vehicles on the freeway. Feeling a bit worried, Jocelyn suggested that the driver could slow
down a
bit.
As a car approached from the right, the driver didn’t decelerate. The other car was speeding too. Everyone seemed in a rush,
jostling for lanes.
Crash!
Jocelyn’s head spun, her body slamming against the car door, her head thudding against it, buzzing.

The car came to a halt. Jocelyn straightened up, wincing with pain as she moved her shoulder. Her tears were about to spill.
It was a car accident.
Police arrived, and Jocelyn ended up at the hospital. A minor concussion and a twisted ankle. It was significant but not critical.
The hospital recommended she be kept overnight for observation.
As Jocelyn lay in the hospital bed, she felt like she was having a run of bad luck, with one thing after another happening to her.

She didn’t dare call her parents, not wanting to worry them. Instead, she called Ursula to ask for a change of clothes and
toiletries. To her surprise, Ursula was still at the restaurant when she called.
Ursula arrived not long after receiving the call, but she wasn’t alone. Zephyr was with her.
“Turns out Zephyr was heading out and heard you were at the hospital, so he insisted on popping in to see you,” Ursula
explained.
Jocelyn couldn’t blame Ursula, who had blurted it out in a rush without thinking to conceal.
Jocelyn could only nod at Zephyr, “Thanks for making the trip.”
“What happened to you?” Zephyr noticed the bandage wrapped around her right ankle, “Is it serious?”
“Just a minor concussion. They’re keeping me overnight for observation,” Jocelyn didn’t hide the fact. Even if she didn’t tell him,
he would probably find out anyway
Zephyr could sense Jocelyn’s detachment towards him, but he was grateful she didn’t just send him away.
After making some small talk, he left.
“He seems like a decent guy, Ursula commented as she pulled up a chair and sat next to the bed.
You interested in him?” Jocelyn asked.
No. Just seems like he’s got a good look, less gloomy than some, Ursula shrugged, “He’s tight with that guy, birds of a feather. I
don’t went to get involved”
Jocelyn smiled faintly, ‘Good that you know.

After spending some time with her, Ursula let Jocelyn rest.
Carroule leti, Jocelyn tay alone in the hospital bed, utterly bored
was de orgy patient in the room. But the two others were fast asleep and snoting.
Chapter 93
Jocelyn, disturbed by the noise, knew she wouldn’t fall asleep in such surroundings.
She decided to get up. Limping slightly, she made her way out to the hallway.
Thankfully, it wasn’t too cold outside. Wrapped in her coat, she began to feel a little drowsy listening to the quiet night breeze.
Just as she was nodding off, footsteps approached. Thinking it might be a doctor coming for rounds, she opened her eyes and
saw a pair of legs clad in crisp suit trousers.
For a moment, perhaps from the concussion, she forgot to look away, just staring numbly at him.
Melvin looked down at her with an icy gaze and kept silent for a long moment before speaking, “All alone in the hospital? No one
to keep you company? How pitiful.”

His sarcasm was unwelcome. Regaining her composure, Jocelyn stood up to head back to her room.
Too hasty to remember her injured ankle, also with the sudden dizziness from standing too quickly, she wobbled.
A firm arm wrapped around her waist and steadied her.
Sensing the familiar masculine scent, she found her footing and clarity. Avoiding his eyes, she gently distanced herself, “Thanks.”
His hand didn’t let go immediately, warmth from his palm seeping through her thin hospital gown, stirring uncomfortable feelings
She turned slightly away, “Mr. Martinez, I’d appreciate it if you’d remove your hand.”
Melvin’s hand finally retracted.
“Thank you,” she said again. Without making eye contact or any further touch, Jocelyn moved slowly back to her room.
Her detachment was like a thom in Melvin’s side.Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

From the moment she treated him like he was invisible, she really hadn’t given him a second glance.
He swore to himself that he would make her regret it. She needed to learn that he could be even more heartless than her.
He should never have listened to Zephyr and come to see her, a heartless creature who wouldn’t recognize a gesture of
goodwill, who once claimed to love him all the same.
What a joke.
Jocelyn’s head and ankle were fine. It was Ursula who picked her up from the hospital.
On the way back, Ursula excitedly shared, “Willow just tweeted that she’s getting engaged to her first love.”
Jocelyn paused, absorbing the news silently.
Ursula dropped off Jocelyn at her apartment and left immediately because of an upcoming phone call. Once alone, Jocelyn
slumped onto her couch and absentmindedly opened Twitter.
Her eyes immediately caught sight of the top trending topic: Willow’s engagement announcement was taking the internet by
storm.
The buzz around the jewelry brand involved in the engagement was almost as fervent, sitting proudly in the top three trending
spots.
With shaky fingers, Jocelyn clicked into the thread. It was filled with congratulatory messages for Willow. There was also a
romantic subtopic touching hearts across the feed. The one you first loved is still by your side.”
To top it all off, the jewelry brand had officially ‘liked’ the topic.
At that moment, Jocelyn felt as if something was violently stirring inside her heart, causing her so much pain that she could
hardly breathe.
Her phone vibrated suddenly, pulling her back from her thoughts. It took her ages to muster the courage to check it.
A text from an unknown number popped up.
Thank you for taking care of him in the past three years. From now on, you’re out of the picture.”

Even without a signature, Jocelyn knew exactly who sent it.
If Willows earlier words were a warning, this message was a blatant show-off,
