CHAPTER 1127 SHIRLEY'S BETRAYAL
"We have the results. The truck driver was drunk and it was an accident," Caleb reported.
Matthew naturally believed what he said since he was a police officer and a good friend.
Veronica sighed. "He's seriously injured. Is it really a good idea not to tell Shirley?"
"Shirley is not in the right state of mind. Telling her will only make her worry." Caleb added, "The first thing he said when he woke up was not to let Shirley know. It's clear that he truly cares about her."
Matthew smiled silently at the fact that the ever-reckless man had finally decided to settle down.
The group of friends stayed with Skyler in the hospital. In the afternoon, he woke up again and they chewed the fat.
Matthew prepared a helicopter so that they could return to a private hospital in Bloomstead. Skyler could continue his treatment there.
Two of his ribs were fractured in the car accident and he suffered internal injuries. He needed some time to rest and recover.
The others came to the hospital one after another to visit Skyler, except for the Robinses and Sofia. They were unaware of the situation. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Shirley was also unaware of it.
As Skyler's condition gradually improved, he turned on his phone only to realize the dozens of missed
calls from Shirley. After hesitating for a moment, he called her.
Ring, ring, ring...
The phone rang for a while before someone answered.
"Shir, is that you?" He regained his composure, trying to sound fine.
"Are you looking for Shirley? She's taking a shower." When Skyler was expecting to hear Shirley's voice, a man's voice came from the other end.
Skyler furrowed his brows and jolted up from bed. As a result of his sudden reaction, a spasm of pain throbbed in his chest. He took a deep breath in secret and asked with gritted teeth, "Who are you?"
Before he could finish his question, the call was terminated. Skyler called back, but it seemed like his number was blocked. No matter how many times he tried, the line couldn't get through.
He totally lost it. He got out of bed to get changed and left the hospital. No one noticed his departure because there was no nurse around.
He headed straight to Youth Apartment and arrived at Shirley's door. He shouted her name and knocked on the door, but no one responded.
Helpless, he contacted someone. "Find out Shirley's whereabouts for me right away."
"Yes, President Robins."
The person hung up. Skyler walked to the staircase and sat down on the steps, exhausted. Soon, he started to receive videos.
The first video showed Shirley driving to a hotel's underground parking lot and meeting a man there. They hugged and kissed passionately.
Skyler's pupils dilated at the screen as his grip on the phone tightened.
The next scene showed the duo's steamier moments in the elevator. The man's hand dipped into her shirt before they entered a room.
According to the time stamp on the video, it was already the next morning when they exited the hotel.
At this moment, Skyler had already recognized the man in the video. It was none other than Wade!
"How could this happen?" The sudden turn of events left Skyler completely stunned.
The next video showed them checking out of the hotel. Shirley returned the room key with her ID card and then left the hotel with her arm around Wade, smiling happily.
The following videos showed them going in and out of the hospital to help Wade's mother out The last video was taken an hour ago. They checked into a room at the Blue Star Hotel located nearby the hospital.
Skyler suddenly threw his phone away, destroying it. He immediately got up, bracing himself and leaving the Youth Apartment to go straight to that hotel.
