The Apology from My Ex and His Mistress novel Chapter 7

Of course, McKayla knew what Stephanie was thinking, but there was nothing she could do. She sighed softly before helping Stephanie downstairs via the elevator.

With a ding, the elevator doors opened on the first floor.

The hospital seemed particularly crowded today, and Stephanie even saw reporters.

“Why are there so many people here? And reporters, too? There must be some celebrity here. They always make a fuss…” McKayla muttered, looking displeased. Just then, she saw someone. Her expression changed immediately as she quickly wanted to pull Stephanie the other

Roxanne handed the doctor her medical record.

The doctor’s frown deepened..

“I’m afraid things aren’t looking good, Ms. Gregg,” he said.
