My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2920

Patricia agreed, stepping back. ’You should get some rest too."

Charlie hesitated before asking with concern, "Your injury seem serious."

"It's nothing," Patricia downplayed, avoiding Charlie's gaze as she turned to leave.

"Will the captain be alright?" Seth asked Charlie, worried.

"Let's give her some room," Charlie said, getting up slowly, his eyes showing his worry. He could tell

the cut on

Patricia's face was worse than she was letting on. Even with years of training under her belt, he

understood that a scar on her face could still be a big deal to her.

'Will she get through this?' he wondered, deeply concerned for Patricia. 'I should have asked her to

leave this dangerous life a long time ago.'

Charlie sighed, thinking it might be time to discuss this with Max, and hoped Jared and Nicole would

agree.

Meanwhile, Patricia returned to her apartment.

The moment she closed her door, all her pretenses collapsed. She didn't bother turning on the lights,

just sat on the couch in the dark, feeling completely drained.

She sat there silently until daylight broke.

Knock, knock, knock.

Someone was at her door. After a moment, Patricia slowly turned her head toward it.

Frowning, she finally got up to open the door when the knocking persisted. Expecting Seth, Patricia

was shocked to see Nicole. "Ms. Riddle, why are you here?!"

"Surprised? Who did you think was coming?" Nicole asked, her gaze lingering on Patricia's cheek.

Nicole could tell from just one look that Patricia's injury was serious. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Entering the apartment, Nicole spoke with a heavy tone, "I heard about what happened, so I came to

check on you."

Then Lulu followed, saying, "Don't stress. We'll find a solution together."

Patricia just shook her head. "I doubt there's a fix for this. It's okay, though. Just another scar."

"But what did the doctor say?" Lulu asked, her brow furrowing. "Isn't there anything that can be done?"

"I'll make some tea for you guys," Patricia said, quickly changing the subject.

Watching Patricia go to the kitchen. Lulu whispered to Nicole, "Is there really no hope? What about

Martin?"

"Let's take her to see Martin later," Nicole suggested after a moment's hesitation.

"Right, we can't just give up," Lulu nodded firmly.

Patricia returned, and Lulu noticed her dark circles. "You didn't sleep last night, did you?"

Caught off guard, Patricia glanced down at her clothes and nodded. "No, I didn't."

She couldn’t remember how the night had passed so quickly.

"You didn't eat either, did you?" Lulu said, urging her to take care of herself. "You can't go on like this.

You need rest." "Have something to eat, and then come with us," Nicole said, her eyes showing

concern.
