Chapter 303 Scar

With a hint of curiosity, Milly inquired, “I overheard someone outside mentioning the rental of an entire floor of

the hospital. These are all VIP suites. Are they truly that affluent?”

The nurse immediately hushed her, casting wary glances as if fearful of cavesdroppers. She lowered her voice,

saying, “Those individuals seem perilous. We must tread carefully. When | cover earlier, | saw them

at least, was noteworthy.

Somehow, the hospital director must have yielded to their demands or reached a compromise, as the previous

uproar had subsided.

As the noise abated, the nurse departed to procure groceries, leaving Milly solitary in the room.

In the ensuing silence, Milly grew restless. Although the nurse had merely mentioned a wounded man, Milly

couldn't dispel the vivid images from her mind. She even imagined the faint scent of blood in the

air.

However, the hospital's antiseptic measures were thorough, and her room was far from the operating theatre.

Any lingering odour would be improbable.

Could it be trick of the mind? Or had she developed sform of trauma?

Suddenly, the bracelet on her wrist began to shiver anew, more vigorously than before. It rubbed her skin until it

reddened and swelled.

Before this, Milly would have attempted to halt its movement, but this time...

She gazed intently at the bracelet, a peculiar sense of panic rising within her.

She couldn’t fathom the source of her unease, yet she couldn't quell it. It felt as if an unseen force was

inexorably drawing her.

Milly rubbed her forehead, stood up, and drew a deep breath. She must have been exhausted lately, and

combined with the prolonged hospital stay led to these errant thoughts.

Looking out the window, she saw birds singing and flowers blooming, the world outside seemingly untouched by

the turmoil within.

It was September, where summer was drawing to a close. Though the day was sunny, it wasn’t sweltering. Soft

breeze hushed through the landscape. It was cosy.

please.”

The man replied coldly. “My superior’s orders. Only one person per room can go out each day. A middle- aged

woman from your room just left, so no one else can go out now.”

A middle-aged woman? That must be the nurse. But what did he mean by his superior?

With a hint of amusement, Milly asked, “Did the government pass a law that says only one person per foom can

leave?”

The man’s irritation was evident. “No.”

“No? Then why can’t | go out?”

Under normal circumstances, Milly would have avoided conflict, especially with someone as menacing as him.

But today, an inexplicable frustration simmered within her.

It felt like a buildup of irritation with no outlet to vent. This man had presented himself as the perfect target for

her pent-up anger. If she didn’t vent, she felt she might explode.

The man before her was not one to be trifled with His brows furrowed at her defiance. “I said no, and that’s final.

That's the rule. Do you have a death wish?”

Milly

smirked. “Your rules aren't laws. Why should | follow them?”

The man was thoroughly enraged now. His already menacing face grew darker and more threatening. Veins

bulged on his forehead, and his eyes filled with a murderous gleam.

“Do you really think | won't hit a woman?”

Milly flexed her wrists and licked her parched lips, feeling a sudden rush of adrenaline and satisfaction. coursing

through her veins. “Bring it on”

At last, she could release the tension that had been suffocating her. This man was the perfect outlet.

Seeing her step forward to provoke him, the man’s eyes flashed with anger. He raised his fist, ready to strike her

down.

But before he could throw the punch, the door beside them swung open, revealing an even taller, more muscular

figure.

Scarface said nothing at first, his cold gaze sweeping from the thug to Milly, narrowing slightly as he took

her in.

Was it her imagination, or was he assessing her?

After a moment, he spoke. “How's the boss?”

Scarface merely grunted.

Scarface gave a curt nod. “Make it quick.” B

The thug nodded eagerly. “Yes, Scarface.”

Though they spoke quietly, the room was so silent that Milly, with her sharp hearing, caught every word of their

conversation.
