Wolf President Hooks Up novel Chapter 223

Sally looked at Elaine and dared not to say anything else.

At nightfall, Elaine slowly became herself again.

She washed her face and combed her hair. When she walked out of the bathroom, she could already squeeze out a pale smile.

“Sally, do I look like a patient being like this?”

Sally looked at Elaine in shock. She felt utterly embarrassed now.

She didn’t look like a patient but a ghost!

Her face was swollen, and her eyes were as big as copper bells. She could only see through a thin gap. She looked hideous!

“Elaine, I would suggest that you should not go out at night.”

So as not to scare passers-by...

Elaine froze for a minute and then said with a bit anger, “What? Aren’t you being dramatic?”

Sally grinned and was still worried. She asked tentatively,

“Elaine. As for Emmett....you don’t feel sad anymore?”

Elaine froze, and then lowered her head, muttering,

“I do feel sad...But, I can’t just cling to the sadness for my whole life. I, I don’t really like him. I just... feel angry and sad about being cheated and played by him. It’s true. I really don’t like him. I like my Mark...Anyway, what’s happened has happened. I finally know him as who he is. I have cried enough. Starting from now, I don’t know anyone who is named Emmett Smith anymore. He doesn’t exist to me any longer.”

Elaine kept telling herself these. But then she felt her nose tingle again, so she rubbed on her nose in a hard way.

Elaine, you can’t make a habit of crying!

You must be tough!

Sally froze and then smiled.

“You are truly our tough Elaine. You are so resilient. Then I should rest myself!”

Elaine faked a smile, “Relax. Don’t worry about me. I am fine! By the way, after what had happened to me, you didn’t even tell Hazel?”

“I did. But the call didn’t go through to her. I called her when you checked into the hospital last night. Her phone was dead. I couldn’t find her.”

“What? Her best friend was in hospital, and she didn’t even come visit! I am so angry! Let’s go find her and make her pay. Let her treat us with a feast!”

Elaine tried to make herself look happier. She tried to behave naturally. So her smile was quite exaggerated.

But she didn’t know how stiff her smile was to other people.

Her smile was even uglier than her sad face.

This was how Elaine looked like right now.

Sally thought about something and said, “Elaine, Master Young left before and didn’t come back. The way he looked wasn’t good. He seemed very sad. How about you call him and ask what’s wrong with him. After all, he has always been around and helping you. He even arranged this hospital for you and paid for your medical treatment.”

Elaine sighed. She remembered vaguely why Oliver left before.

Elaine nodded and took out her phone, dialing Oliver’s number.

Actually, when she saw this new phone bought for her by Emmett, her heart was already hurting, which couldn’t be controlled by her.

It turned out that, when the heart was hurting, it couldn’t be controlled by its owner.

Just like now. Elaine had already commanded her heart to stop thinking about someone specifically. But her heart just kept doing it by itself.

And when the heart thought about him, it hurt like hell.

Oliver stood alone on the rooftop to face the wind. He stood there for almost several hours. He looked like a sad statue now.

Then the phone in his pocket rang. When he heard the love song, he came to himself again.

That love song...It only rang up when someone specifically called.

“Em?” Oliver couldn’t believe it. He looked at his phone.

It was indeed Elaine! His darling!

He was quite excited now.

Because Elaine almost never called him.

After other women knew the number of Master Young, they wished to call him hundreds of times a day or text him dozens of times to tell him how much they loved him.

Only Elaine didn’t bother to respond to him and knocked him to a freezing zone.

“Hello?” Oliver took in a breath and tried to make himself sound softer.

“Oliver, where are you?”

Elaine’s soft voice came into Oliver’s ears, which almost made him limp.

“Me? I am on the rooftop to get some air. What’s wrong?”

“Are you far from me?”

“No, no. Of course not! I am very close to your ward! I will get you whatever you need!”

Such a disgrace. He was Master Young. When did he ever grovel at a woman’s feet?

He was like a dog who begged to run errands for her.
