Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 486

To Jodie's surprise, her words hit a nerve with the nurse.

"Do you still think that you're some royal princess? Everyone already knows that your dad is Jack Quinn. Do you even know who he is?

"He's the one who drove my father to suicide. Jack Quinn is a piece of shit and the monster I hate the most in this life!" The nurse's eyes were all red.

Twenty years ago, her father told them that he was going to the company to demand his wages. Her mother was the only one at home, taking care of her and her little brother. Her father never came back.

Rumor had it that he was forced to jump off the building because he had blocked Jack's car.

Her father was the most ordinary one among all the other hundreds of people driven to suicide. His story might be too insignificant to be recorded in history, but it would be forever etched in her memories.

Now that her sworn enemy's daughter was right in front of her, she was already doing a splendid job suppressing the burning anger within her and not stabbing her right then and there.

The nurse knew that she could not act brashly as she still had other family members. She could not let Jack ruin her family a second time.

The other nurse's voice became hoarse as well. "Let's not talk about it anymore. Forget it. Let's go."

The angry nurse took a deep breath. Then, she looked at Jodie and snickered.

"You sure got lucky, having lived so many years in luxury and comfort. But it looks like the one who wanted to protect you has given up. You deserve it!

"Judging from the extent of your injuries, you'll have to continue staying in the hospital for quite some time. I'll be cursing you every day!"

Jodie was completely clueless about Jack. After all, she had been raised in the Henderson home all these years and had never learned about these things.

Nonetheless, she felt uneasy because not one person had come to visit her ever since she was hospitalized.

She looked at her phone. It was completely silent.

She had a few friends in Druville, but why did it seem like everyone had disappeared?

With one swift movement, she removed her arm sling, ignored the pain in her body, and reached for her phone. She called Yancey.
