Chapter 161: Chapter 161

Originally, she and Bowen were supposed to be an emotional dog–blood drama.

But now the style of painting has mutated and become a suspense film.

If it evolves further, it may become a horror movie.

She froze in place and couldn’t move. Alex looked back at her after making the call and hurriedly came over to ask: “Miss Marsh, are you okay? Miss Marsh, Miss Marsh?”

She was in a daze, and Alex patted her gently.

Jolene shivered in response, which startled Alex.

“Miss Marsh, are you alright, your face looks so ugly?”

“It’s okay.” She shook her hand: “I’m going to see my brother, I’ll stay in the hospital at noon, you go first!”

She stumbled over to Frank’s room.

Her face was so bad that Frank could see it: “Jolene, did you not sleep well last night, or are you sick?”

“Not sick.” Jolene smiled reluctantly: “What did you eat in the morning?”

“Nicole came this morning and brought me soy milk bread and five–spice eggs.”

“Oh, I’ll have a nearby restaurant deliver some dishes for lunch. Let’s eat together.”

“Mom said to bring the food later.”

“Okay.” Jolene sat down by the bed and wanted to peel an apple for Frank, but the fruit knife was in her hand, and she shook it for a long time without peeling off a piece of skin.

Frank simply took the apple and fruit knife away: “Jolene, what’s wrong with you? You look so ugly.”

“I hit the back of my head last night and had a slight concussion. This is a sequela.”

“Huh?” Frank was scared half to death, and his face changed.

Jolene smiled and comforted him: “It’s mild, it doesn’t matter, you don’t even need to take medicine.”

“Otherwise, go back and rest first. By the way, Jolene, have you been staying at Nicole’s house recently?”

“Ah.” Jolene smiled and didn’t answer Frank directly: “Stop peeling apples, eat oranges!”

Jolene stayed in the ward for half a day, and Frank, knowing that she was unemployed again, was careful to talk to her.

The more careful Frank was, the more uncomfortable Jolene felt.

He always felt that he was dragging her down.

Actually not.

If it weren’t for Frank’s illness, Jolene wouldn’t know that her.

1 original ability was so poor, and she would be overwhelmed by out–point family matters.

Lunch time was almost over, and my mother didn’t come.

Jolene was a little worried and called, but no one answered.

She couldn’t sit still, so she went to meet him at the gate of the hospital and called home by the way.

Unexpectedly, someone answered the phone at home, and Jolene immediately said, “Mom, are you still at home?”

Mom’s voice was a little tired and hoarse: “Ah, I’ll pack up and come over right away.”

“Mom, what happened?” Jolene felt sensitively that something must have happened.

“That dead ghost is back…” Mom panted a little: “I asked him to return the money to you, and he asked me for money…”

“Mom, don’t be angry with him.” Jolene didn’t expect her stepfather to pay her back the money at all.

He must have lost everything a long time ago, what did he get to pay back? A month’s retirement salary is just a few dollars, which is not enough for him to do.

“Mom knows you sold the house…” Mom cried out: “Frank is sick, I can’t help you at all, and I’ve made trouble for you, we’ve been dragging you down, Jolene, sometimes I really think it’s better to die…”

“Mom!” Jolene’s heart tightened and immediately interrupted her mother: “Don’t say these things in the future, what will drag you down or not, you don’t have such thoughts, don’t Chiller 161 even think about it in the future, don’t even mention it!”

“Jolene.” Mom cried with a strong nasal voice: “Mom just thinks you’re too tired to live…”
