Enna Clark had just left the company.
Her phone rang.
She thought it was Bobby calling again, asking her to buy something on her way home. But when she picked up her phone, she saw an unexpected number â Cherysh Jordan.
Why was Cherysh calling her?
Enna hesitated for a moment, originally not intending to answer the call. After some thought, she finally picked up just as the call was about to be dropped.
âHello.â
âEnna.â Cherysh surprisingly didnât address her as Ms. Clark.
Enna was caught off guard by this sudden familiarity and frowned, even more unsure why Cherysh was contacting her.
Who knew? Cherysh took the initiative. âI need you for something. Can you come to the hospital?â
Enna didnât know why Cherysh had suddenly changed her attitude towards her but still coolly declined. âI have something else to do. I might not be able to.â
Cherysh hurriedly spoke, fearing Enna would hang up. âI want to tell you something important, related to what happened five years ago.â Five years ago!
Wasnât that when her entanglement with Baron Lawrence began?
Enna clenched her phone tightly and asked in a deep voice, âWhich hospital are you in?â
Cherysh gave her an address, and after Enna wrote it down, she said, âWait for me a moment, Iâll be right there.â
She hung up and sent a text to Bobby, saying she might be a bit late coming home. Then, she hailed a taxi on the street and rushed to the hospital Cherysh had mentioned.
Cade Hospital, Room 003.
Rebecca Jordan had already fallen asleep while receiving an IV drip. Cherysh gently tucked her blanket and gestured for Enna to follow. She picked up her purse and walked out of the room quietly.
Out in the hallway, Cherysh proposed, âThereâs a place nearby where we can get some water to drink. Letâs go there.â
Enna didnât want to waste too much time with her. âNo need for that. Just tell me here.â
Cherysh realized Enna didnât want to waste time and gave her a bitter smile. âThere are too many people here, and we canât stand here and talk. Come with me. Thereâs a small garden behind the hospital with fewer people. Thereâs a pavilion there with benches we can sit on.â
Fearing Ennaâs refusal, she said half convincing, half pleading, â⦠At least we can sit down and talk.â
âFine. â
As expected, there was a pavilion in the hospitalâs small garden. Enna sat down opposite Cherysh and got straight to the point. âYou said you want to tell me something important related to five years ago. What is it?â
Cherysh was still as seductive as ever, but compared to the previous two times they met, her seduction seemed less deliberate and more natural. She didnât answer Ennaâs question, but instead said, âThank you for that day. I really donât know what I would have done without you stepping in. Thank you, Enna.â
If Enna hadnât appeared on that day, she was really afraid of what Brody Smith might have done to Rebecca.
If something had happened to Rebecca, she wouldnât be able to live with herself.
So she was genuinely grateful to Enna.
Enna knew what she was referring to. Her eyes were cold. âI wasnât helping you, I was helping Rebecca. If Rebecca hadnât been there that day, I wouldnât have gotten involved.â
Cherysh hadnât expected Enna to be so direct. She paused for a moment, then gave a bitter smile and lowered her eyes. âI know. I donât deserve your help..â
