Chapter 1064

Olivia tapped the screen to answer. “Hello, Hailey.”
Since she hadn’t put the call on speaker, Rebecca couldn’t make out what Hailey was saying.
In a flash, Olivia’s expression hardened, and she rose to her feet. “What did you say, Hailey? You’ve been admitted to the hospital?”
Rebecca’s heart began to race.
“I’m coming right away.”
With that, Olivia ended the call and turned to leave.
Suddenly, Rebecca reached out and caught her arm. “Olivia, what’s going on? Is Hailey okay?”
Olivia’s expression was grim. “Hailey’s been dealing with stomach pains today and is currently in the hospital. I’m going to visit her now.”
“Let me go with you.”
“It’s fine. Hailey needs some space right now and doesn’t want to see you. Please don’t make things harder for her. I’ll be on my way.”
With those words, Olivia turned on her heel and left.
Rebecca stood frozen. How could she miss this dramatic turn of events? She needed to find out for herself what had really happened to Hailey.
Half an hour later, Rebecca arrived at the hospital. She approached a nurse and asked, “Excuse me, could you tell me which room Hailey Young is in?”
The nurse glanced at her and asked, “And what’s your relationship to the patient?”
“I’m a close friend. We’re classmates as well.”
The nurse pointed toward a VIP ward. “Hailey is in that room. You may go in.”
“Thank you.”
With that, Rebecca walked toward the VIP ward. Instead of knocking, she paused at the door and peered inside.
Hailey, dressed in a patient gown, sat quietly on the hospital bed. She looked frail, as though all her strength had slipped away.
Meanwhile, Olivia was seated on the edge of the bed. “Hailey, how did you suddenly end up in the hospital?” she asked.
Hailey’s voice was barely audible.
“Last night, Jonah and I had another fight. After he left started having
stomach pains, so I came here.”
“Why did you argue with Mr. Pilsner again?”
“I just feel so sad and broken inside. Do you understand what that feels like? It’s just
Before Hailey could say another word, Olivia pulled her into a comforting embrace. “It’s alright, Hailey. This pain won’t last forever.”
From where she stood, Rebecca saw tears streaming down Hailey’s face.

“I never imagined my relationship with Jonah would end up like this, Hailey choked out. “I wanted to grow old with him and spend my whole life by his side.
“I get it, Hailey. It’s really tough being in your position.”
Amid Hailey’s tears, Olivia offered, “You haven’t eaten yet, have you? I’ll head home
and prepare some soup for you.”
Hailey shook her head. “I don’t feel like eating.”

Hailey nodded reluctantly. “Alright then. Thanks a million, Olivia.”
“Come on, Hailey, we’re good friends. You don’t have to be so polite. Now, get some
rest. I’ll be back as soon as I’m done.”
