All Her Secrets

Chapter 964 Selene's Plan Failed

Selene was in the hospital. She could barely speak. And her neck was in colossal pain due to the strangling. Even drinking water was painful to her. Selene stopped the doctor who was leaving and asked, "Doctor, how long does it take to recover?"

The doctor pushed his glasses hesitantly and said in a severe voice, "The swelling can be relieved within three days, but it will take another week to recover fully."

"Can you at least ease the pain?" That was what she was concerned about. She could try to eat as little as possible but still had to eat. The thing was, the pain was unbearable, even though she was only lying there and doing nothing.

The doctor could only say, 'Miss Miller, it takes time for the medicine to work. We've given you painkillers. Your pain will be eased soon enough." But he never mentioned exactly how soon.

Selene was furious to see the doctor leave. She spent extra money to shift into a single ward, and this was what she got. What a jerk! She accidentally moved her neck and grimaced because of the pain.

She swore to herself with her fists clenched that she would make Rylan pay for this. They both worked for the same boss, but Rylan was superior to her and trampled on her at will just because he was a Melton. Catherine must die, so did he! She would make them pay.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Her throat was on fire. But no one came to pour her some water, no matter how many times she pressed the service button. So, she could only go by herself.

When she passed the service station and overheard some nurses talking, she found out this hospital was under the Duncan Corporation. After drinking some water, she went back to her ward. The pain in her throat was still unbearable, but the surprising news lightened her mood.

She could not wait to text Branden. This was her chance.
