Chapter 342
"Jennifer passed out in the rain, and I’ve just arrived at the hospital with her. She's running a really high
fever of 39 celcius..."
Since Jennifer had fallen sick, the celebration was postponed and Vicky hurried to the hospital as well.
Tyler went with her, much to Cece's bewilderment.
She once bad-mouthed Tyler with Vicky in private before, but Tyler was simply too intimidating and
Cece would cower whenever she saw him.
Whenever his eyes would land on her, she would feel like she was being strangled.
Cece could not understand how Vicky could spend so much time with a man like that.
In the meantime, Jennifer was lying in bed like a fragile porcelain doll, and Vicky frowned at the sight.
"Cece, what's going on? Why is Jennifer down with a fever?"
It was unlikely that Jennifer came down with a fever immediately after she went out in the rain, so the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtonly possibility was that she was already ill before she headed outside.
Cece choked back her tears and said, "Jennifer hasn't fully recovered from the cold she had before,
and she was left in the rain today... I hate that Anthony guy! He tried to make a point by not answering
her call so that she'd go to him to beg for his help... It was cold that day, and she caught a cold after
standing in the wind for two whole hours."
Vicky narrowed her eyes. "Was it because of...me?"
Cece froze before blurting out, "No, Vicky..."
Vicky instantly knew that Jennifer was only in this situation because of her, judging from Cece's
reaction.
"Vicky, it's getting late. Why don't you head back? I'll stay with Jennifer," Cece said.
After all the chaos, it was already past eight and since Vicky was afraid of the dark, she would often
return home before eight.
Vicky nodded. "Sure. I'll drop by to see Jennifer tomorrow morning."
Jennifer's fever did not go down for another three days, and Anthony had not once appeared in the
hospital.
Because of Jennifer's condition, Vicky started spending more time in the hospital.
Vicky and Cece would take turns looking after Jennifer; Vicky would take the days and Cece would
come at night.
One day, Cece was running late as she had something to deal with. As Vicky walked out of the
hospital, she received a call from Tyler.
"Where are you?"
His voice reminded her that she was supposed to dine in a restaurant with Tyler that night.
Jennifer had regained consciousness some time ago, and Vicky went to get the doctors to check on
her. The procedures did not end until Cece arrived.
She held onto her phone and whispered, "I... I'm just getting out of the hospital. I'm sorry. Jennifer
suddenly woke up, and I was in a rush to call for the doctors and forgot to inform you that Cece was

Tyler fell into silence.
"I'm sorr-"
Before she could apologize, he hung up.
Beep, beep, beep!
By the time Vicky arrived at the restaurant, she was two hours late, and she noticed that the entire
restaurant had been cleared as she walked inside.
Piano music echoed inside the restaurant, and Vicky immediately spotted the man sitting by the
window.
There was a piece of cake in front of him with a candle in the shape '4' on the cake.
It was neither his nor her birthday, which meant that it was their fourth anniversary.
Vicky's pupil contracted at the thought.
