Chapter 755 I’m Trying to Avoid That

After Gilbert left, Jenny leaned against the bed and took out her phone, scrolling through the latest news. She checked her call log and saw that she had made an emergency call to Alec, but he hadn’t answered and had only called her back about an hour later.

She continued thinking about what would have happened had Alec answered her call.

At that time, she had just entered the mountains, so if someone had come to her rescue, she might not have had to suffer the two gunshots later on. But then again, he had no obligation to come to her aid. She blamed herself for setting him as her emergency contact, which almost cost her life.

She decided to change her emergency contact to Gilbert. She felt confident that he would come to her rescue no matter what. As for Alec, she decided to keep him on the list of blocked contacts and have no further contact with him. Although he had no obligation to save her, Jenny’s heart still hurt and felt uncomfortable.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the ward. Jenny thought it was Evan returning and said, “Come in.”

It was Derrick who entered instead. Jenny was hospitalized in Bardoff Hospital, and all the well-informed people in the hospital knew she was there. Derrick was one of them.
