Chapter 276
In his words, there was a profound sense of helplessness.
And there were some things that words just couldnât fix.
Gilda raised an eyebrow, her lips curving into a slight smile. âMr. Harrington isnât the one who did wrong. Why should you be apologizing?â
Jensen shook his head slightly. âThis apology is from the me of the past.â
âSave it, Mr. Harrington!â Gilda said, glancing toward Luna not far off. âIâm planning to pursue this matter to the end.â
âAlright, I support whatever decision you make.â Jensenâs words clearly showed his stance, which sent Luna into a panic, âJensen, are you really siding with this woman? Your cousin is the one lying in the hospital!â
Jensen replied without so much as a glance her way. âWeâre all adults here. Itâs about time we paid the price for our actions.â
âWhat on earth did Emily do to deserve this from you? Remember, sheâs the one whoâs lying in a hospital bed right now!â Luna was beside herself with anger. âI donât care what you plan to do, but you better not lay finger on Emily.â

Gilda frowned slightly, instinctively trying to break free, her tone devoid of emotions. âSorry, Mr. Harrington! That wonât be necessary. You should probably focus on sorting out this mess at the hospital right now.â

However, Jensen insisted. âNo rush for the moment!â
He didnât give Gilda a chance to refuse and followed her straight out.
Left with no choice, Gilda quickened her pace.
