Chapter 200

Serene froze for a moment when she saw Estrella in her loungewear, but quickly moved towards her. “Estrella,” she called out, then added, “Estrella, are you sick too?”

Estrella hummed in response, glancing briefly at Jason’s hospital room. “Why are you standing at the door without going in?”

Serene’s face turned a shade of pink. She opened her mouth to say something but found herself at a loss for words, so she turned to look at the rooms down the hall. “Estrella, which room are you staying in?”

Estrella looked back at her own room and pointed. “That one over there.”

“No one is here with you? Why are you out and about in the middle of the night instead of resting?”

“I’ve got a fever, just heading to the nurse’s station for some meds.”

“You should go back to your room. I can get them for you.”

“The nurses don’t know you. They won’t give you the meds,” Estrella said, continuing her walk to the nurse’s station with Serene following.

As they passed Jason’s room, Estrella peeked inside and saw Holly sitting beside the bed, Estrella understood the situation instantly. There was clearly someone important inside, and Serene can’t get in.

After glancing at Serene, Estrella felt a tinge of sympathy. Despite spending so many years by Jason’s side, Serene ended up with nothing. Serene, holding her thermos even tighter and her ears now a fiery red, was the picture of awkwardness.

Serene had brought Jason some homemade soup to the hospital, having heard he had been on IVs for days, but with Holly inside, she was left standing foolishly at the door.

When Estrella returned from the nurse with fever medicine, Serene followed her back to the room.
