Chapter 288

“Couldn’t you have at least givena heads-up?” Mila asked.

Nathan remained silent and went straight into the bathroom.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Mila quickly leaped off the bed and ran to the door. She pressed her ear to the door and asked,

Who is it?”

“Suzanne, open up.”

Mila’s heart stopped in her throat when she realized it was Sally. She turned to look at Nathan, who was in the bathroom. The knock was getting more urgent. “Open up. Can’t you hear me? Open the door.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Mila opened the door to find Sally

standing there with a smug look. Mila raised her voice, asking, “Ms. Hoffis, is there anything?”

She was hoping to alert Nathan so he wouldn’t cout and be spotted.

Sally crossed her arms and looked at her contemptuously. “I’ve ne seen a woman as shameless as you. You threatened my grandn with Nathan and even moved in here brazenly. Aren’t you afraid of dying?”

“I’m not afraid to die,” Mila said in a calm voice.

Sally snorted. She was sizing Mila up and speculating about her intentions for staying at Hoffis Manor.

“Ms. Hoffis, what do you want from me?” Mila asked.

“Oliver’s looking for you. He’s in my grandpa’s sick room. Go to him,” Sally replied icily.

“All right. Can you showthe way?” Mila asked as she closed the

door.

Sally led her to Zach’s sick room. The spacious room was equipped with various life-monitoring devices, and the facilities were no worse than those in a hospital.

Zach lay motionless in his bed. His face was pale, and he looked extremely frail.

Zach had always loved Mila dearly. It broke Mila’s heart to see Zach in such a state, and her eyes immediately watered. She pushed

through the pain and walked slowly toward Zach.

Oliver was sitting on the couch and watching Mila. Loretta was wiping Zach’s hands clean. She turned around and asked in a displeased tone, “What are you here for?”

Mila’s heart hurt even more from Loretta’s stoniness.

“Mom, it was my request,” Oliver stated.

Loretta continued cleaning Zach’s hand while saying sternly, “This is

a place where your dad recovers, not a place for just anyone. Get her

out.”

Mila disregarded Loretta’s animosity. She walked over to th

side of the bed, held Zach’s hand, and calmly asked, “What k illness does Mr. Hoffis Senior have? And why isn’t he being treate a hospital?”

“Whether my grandpa goes to the hospital or not has nothing to do with you,” Sally said haughtily.

MMila bit her lip and glanced at Oliver. She noticed that he was wwatching her closely. Perhaps Oliver was using Zach’s illness to test

her because he suspected she had regained her memory.

Staring into Mila’s eyes, Oliver told her deliberately, “His tis up, and he may live a few more days at most. Going to the hospital is pointless.”

The shocking news hit Mila like a bolt from the blue. Waves of grief flooded her chest. Suddenly, her palm was poked twice.

Mila froze up. Zach continued to poke her palm. It was at that moment that she fully understood.

The overwhelming sadness left her immediately. Her face was unusually serene as she sighed quietly. “I hope he pulls through this and recovers soon.”

Oliver’s face had a pall over it. Mila was as calm as water. It didn’t look like she had regained her memory at all.
