The Wrong Woman

Chapter 960



Michaela had a team of professional caregivers and rehabilitation therapists looking after her around the clock. Yet, Candice remained concerned about potential complications.

"Let me stay with you tonight, Michaela," Candice suggested.

In a gentle tone, Michaela reassured her. "It's fine, Candice. You should head home and get some rest. I'm in good hands here."

Fenna immediately nudged Josie and gave her a meaningful glance.

Michaela glanced at Josie and pondered briefly before replying, "Sure, Josie, stay with me tonight. We have things in common."

Candice pursed her lips awkwardly and stayed quiet.
