Chapter 517

[ 529 words ]

She didn’t mean to do it. It all started when she tried to get two different types of pills out of the bottles. Then she went to get the pill crusher, and with all the water pouring and whatnot, things just got mixed up… It wasn’t until Hull was throwing up like crazy that she realized she’d given him the wrong pills.

The doctors and everyone else were still inside, and Susanna couldn’t explain herself.

She cried out through tears, “I swear, I didn’t mean to!”

Barnaby chimed in, “Now you’re crying? Wait till Boss finds out. He’ll kill you!”

Upon hearing Barnaby’s words, Susanna’s tears flowed even more uncontrollably.

“I-I didn’t mean to.”

Barnaby rubbed his forehead. “It doesn’t matter if you meant to or not. We’ll see how Boss is doing first. If anything happens to him…”

“He won’t be in real trouble, right?”

The thought of Hull being in danger panicked Susanna.

Barnaby exclaimed internally, ‘Who could say for sure?’

“He took external medication orally. They’re pumping his stomach right now.”

Susanna was now a mess of tears and snot, realizing how serious it was if they were pumping his stomach.

“But he threw up, so maybe it’s not that bad, right?” Susanna asked cautiously, her nerves stretched to the breaking point.

She remembered Hull started throwing up not long after taking the pills. Maybe he had expelled most of it?

Barnaby snorted, “You better pray he’s okay. If he gets hurt, you’ll be in serious trouble.”

Susanna shivered at his words.

She didn’t know Barnaby was doing it on purpose. He had heard all about Susanna’s little accidents around Hull lately. Even cooking pasta turned into a disaster with her. If he didn’t scare her a bit, who knew what mess she’d cause next?

Little did he realize that Susanna was already thoroughly spooked.

Barnaby retorted, “Now you’re the one feeling wronged?”

Susanna insisted, “I’m serious. I kept calling you guys, but no one came.”

She had tried calling Silas when struggling to help Hull, but he didn’t pick up They insisted she take care of Hult, and now that something went wrong, they wanted to Skin her alive. That was unfair!

Barnaby was seething as he listened to her.

Before he could explode, Silas exited the room. “Okay, enough scaring her.”

He had heard Susanna’s wailing from inside, wondering what Hul saw in her. Maybe Hull enjoyed comforting women? No wonder he never liked the ones who didn’t cry often.

Barnaby huffed, “I wasn’t scaring her, just telling the truth. If Boss really got hurt, she’d be in deep trouble.”

Susanna was already tense, and Barnaby’s words made her heart skip a beat.

Silas smacked the back of Barnaby’s head. “You’re the one who’s looking for trouble.”

If Susanna freaked out, Hull would definitely go after Barnaby first. Barnaby protested.

Susanna sniffled, anxiously looking at Silas. “Thank you, Silly. Is he going to be okay?”

Barnaby burst into laughter. “Oh man, ‘Thank you, Silly.’ You’ve renamed him? You called Silas Silly, huh?”

Silas sighed helplessly, and Susanna was speechless.

Barnaby, scolding Susanna just moments ago, was laughing his ass off. He’d never encountered such a nervous and timid woman before.
