Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Chapter 289 I’m Giving You a Chance Now

There was a brief pause before the woman on the phone responded, “Come to the third floor of the inpatient department. I’ll be waiting for you in the corridor.”

Amanda couldn’t help but find the situation even more peculiar after ending the call. The woman’s calm demeanor seemed detached as if she bore no concern for the matter at hand.
