A Crazy Night Novel

Chapter 205 Backfired

Linda appeared to have consumed something bad, causing her stomach to ache, so she went to the hospital.

She had no relatives in Jadeborough, so Charlie rushed to the hospital to check on her after hearing the

news.

He comforted her for a while before returning horne.

After finishing his meal, Linda called again, urging him to come over.

Charlie had already promised Felicia that he would never see Linda again, but he couldn’t help but be concerned when he heard that his ex–lover was ill.

“Dad, I bought a lot of fruit. Do you want to have some with us?” Christina’s sweet voice sounded.

Charlie turned his head around. “Sure.”

Then, he said a few more sentences to the person on the other end of the phone before hanging up. He exited the living room and sat down with Christina and Nathaniel to eat some fruits.

Julia and Sierra happened to return from a walk, and they all sat down together to have some coffee. During that period, Linda called a few more times, but Charlie rejected the calls.

His actions caught Julia’s attention.

She had caught whiffs of a feminine scent on him when he entered the house, and now his phone was ringing nonstop.

Julia’s facial expression gradually darkened.)

Christina, who was munching on some snacks, casually asked with feigned curiosity, “Dad, why aren’t you answering the phone? Is it Ms. Macall looking for you?”

She figured Linda was a scheming woman and wouldn’t want to admit defeat.

Charlie sighed softly. “Linda has no relatives here, and Francis has gone to film. It’s inconvenient for her to stay alone in the hospital when she’s sick.”

In fact, he didn’t have any ulterior motives. He merely wanted to care for Linda since they had a history together.
