What&#8217;s wrong? Why are you so angry in the early morning.&#8221; Madeleine smirked and said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You also know that I am your editor. Manuscript, manuscript. Where\u2019s your manuscript? You promised you\u2019ll send it to me in me a week. You said you\u2019ll give me a hundred thousand words, and now I don&#8217;t even see a single word. Are you kidding me? Give me the manuscript, or I\u2019ll jump into the river with you!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Madeleine put the phone away, and Nova Barrett\u2019s high decibel voice almost penetrated her eardrum.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Darling, calm down.&#8221; After all, it was her work, and she would not make excuses without reason. &#8220;It\u2019s justified. Ophelia had a car accident a few days ago, and the doctor gave us a critically ill notice, and she almost couldn&#8217;t make it. I went to the hospital to take care of her, so the manuscript was delayed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sure enough, Nova calmed down.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When did Miss Ophelia have a car accident?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just a few days ago, and I looked after her in the hospital these days, so I\u2019m uninspired. She was in the operating room yesterday. I did not get home until nearly three o&#8217;clock in the morning, and I fell asleep as soon as I came back. Could you give me another half a month? I promise I\u2019ll submit it in half a month. Definitely in time.&#8221; Madeleine said very seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Nova said, &#8220;Which hospital is Miss Ophelia in?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The City People&#8217;s Hospital.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;OK, got it. Come to the company now, I&#8217;ll discuss it with you, and then we&#8217;ll go to the hospital to see her together.&#8221; Nova made a final decision. &#8220;Don&#8217;t say that you have to sleep. You know the Tigress will kill us when she\u2019s angry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Madeleine would not dare to make the Tigress angry, would she? Definitely not.<\/p>\n<p>So she obediently went to the company.<\/p>\n<p>When she got to the company, Nova taught her a lesson for half an hour and stopped just before Madeleine was about to ask for pardon.<\/p>\n<p>They discussed something about the draft, and in the blink of an eye, it was midnight.<\/p>\n<p>Nova packed her things and said, &#8220;Let&#8217;s go to visit Miss Ophelia.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shall we have lunch first? Ophelia is still ill and has no time to arrange lunch for us. &#8221; Madeleine laughed directly.<\/p>\n<p>Nova glanced at her discontentedly and finally had lunch with her before going to the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>When they arrived at the ward, there were already a lot of people crowded in the ward, where there were various fruits and beautiful flowers.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Chamber was driving people away, &#8220;Ladies and gentlemen, my daughter-in-law just woke up, and the doctor said that she can&#8217;t be tired. We are very grateful that you can come to see her today. It&#8217;s noon now. I asked the housekeeper to make a reservation at XH Restaurant. You can have lunch there, and she also needs a rest.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The guests said goodbye and left the room.<\/p>\n<p>Nova also put the fruit on the ground. Ophelia said to Mrs. Chamber, &#8220;Mom, please find a chair for Miss Barrett to sit down.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Chamber moved a soft chair and said, &#8220;Sit down, please. I&#8217;ll wash some fruit for you to eat. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nova waved her hand and said, &#8220;Auntie, that\u2019s OK. Don&#8217;t bother.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Chamber smiled appropriately and looked like a gentle elder.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You are Ophelia&#8217;s friends, thank you for coming to see her. Help yourself. You are guests, and I should take care of you as the host.&#8221; Mrs. Chamber took the fruit and went into the bathroom.<\/p>\n<p>Nova looked at Ophelia in the bed, with distress and worry in her eyes, &#8220;Miss Ophelia, you look pale. Are you all right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ophelia shook her head gently, and said softly, &#8220;It&#8217;s okay. I just feel tired. Maybe I\u2019ll be better after some days.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nova nodded.<\/p>\n<p>She was not particularly familiar with Ophelia. They knew each other through Madeleine, so they had no common topic then.<\/p>\n<p>However, Ophelia was natural. She said weakly, &#8220;Have you had lunch yet?&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1256","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
