Chapter 236

Outside the ICU, Julie watched as Kyle walked up to Sansa, gently taking her hand, but whatever he was saying to Sansa was beyond her view.

After all, Julie was no Dylan, and couldn’t read a man’s emotions from his back.

She tumed her gaze to Kyle’s assistant, Lisa.

“Miss.”

“Please, just call me Lisa.” Lisa politely smiled, not missing a beat.

Julie casually asked Lisa, “You’ve been in this line of work for a while? Been with Mr. Kyle for many years?”

“Yes.” Lisa answered the question succinctly, not revealing any specific years. Clearly, she was on guard with Julie.

“I think Mr. Kyle has changed a lot.” Julie mused more to herself than to Lisa. She continued softly, looking at Kyle’s back, “The day my sister was diagnosed as being in a vegetative state, I tried to contact Mr. Kyle. But he told me not long ago that he hasn’t used that email since he and my sister broke up. Lisa, do you have someone you fancy?”

This shift in topic caught Lisa off guard. She replied, “My personal life is quite ordinary, you probably wouldn’t be interested.”

This woman was really clever, her responses were so precise, leaving no room for rebuttal.

“You don’t have a foreign accent at all.” Julie said, smiling.

Lisa looked like a local so she didn’t understand why Julie would suspect she was foreign. In reality, she was, having grown up overseas.

All she could think was that Julie had really good hearing. She spoke better than some locals, but Julie still noticed it.

“How did you know I was foreign?” Lisa asked.

Julie laughed, “So, I was right.”

Lisa was speechless.

Inside the hospital room, Kyle stood up and walked out. His face looked off, there were no obvious emotional fluctuations, but his presence seemed to make the atmosphere colder.

“What did the doctor say?” Kyle asked Julie, “Did the doctor say there’s a good chance she’ll wake up?”

As Kyle asked this, Julie’s mind started racing. In the end, she didn’t tell him the whole truth, instead she told Kyle, “The doctor said there’s almost zero chance she’ll wake up. He told me not to get my hopes up.”
