Chapter 591

“Don’t say that.

I didn’t take good care of you,” Lindsey’s voice quivered slightly, betraying her attempt to stay composed.

Xiomara glanced around and asked, “How long have I been asleep?”

“About three days.

”

“Oh my God, I can’t believe it.

My work…” Xiomara, overwhelmed by concern for her responsibilities, attempted to get up, only to be met with a stabbing pain in her stomach.

Lindsey gently pressed Xiomara back onto the bed.

“Your tasks have been assigned to others.

Right now, you need to focus on your recovery.

And don’t worry, I’ll consider this a work-related injury and won’t deduct your salary.

Please, you have to be in bed.

”

Restrained by the pain, Xiomara looked at Lindsey with gratitude.

“Lindsey, have you been here all this time? Did you pay my hospital bills, too?”

Lindsey smiled and shook her head.

“No, Sumner has been looking after you.

I was tied up with company matters.

He’s the one who’s taken care of everything, including your medical expenses.

”

Xiomara’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Sumner did? Really?”

“Sumner is a sweetheart, always thoughtful and kind.

Anyone who’s his girlfriend must be over the moon! Oh, and when you passed out, Sumner was the one who scooped you up and took you to the hospital!”

Lindsey was aware of Xiomara’s crush on Sumner.

For the past few days, Sumner had been by Xiomara’s side the entire time.

Maybe there was a chance for something to develop between them.

Xiomara’s eyes went wide when she heard Lindsey’s words.

She opened her mouth, then closed it, looking both shocked and bashfully happy.

“I used to think I was on the heavy side, and guys would bail when they saw me, but he lifted me and carried me to the car.

He doesn’t mind how I look?”

She seemed to be speaking partly to Lindsey and partly to herself.

Lindsey rushed to respond, “No way.

Sumner’s not the type to be shallow and judge by looks alone.

”

“Really?” A spark Lit up in Xiomara’s eyes.

“Yes, I know him better than anyone.

”

“Lindsey, you and Sumner, are you…”

Ever since Sumner joined Lindnita Artists Agency, Xiomara had a hunch that there was something special about his relationship with Lindsey.

Sumner had a habit of gazing at Lindsey with a profound and tender Look.

Xiomara often wished Sumner would look at her that way, but she never let herself get her hopes up.

Lindsey caught Xiomara’s drift and smiled warmly.

“We’re just close friends.

We got to know him when I was in college.

I knew he wanted to be a singer, and since I’m an agent, joining my company was a natural step for him.

“I see…” Xiomara felt a wave of relief.

If there were any romantic connection between Sumner and Lindsey, she wouldn’t entertain illusions or wishful thinking about it.
