Chapter 56

The line went dead, and all Caleb could hear was the beeping sound. His grip on the phone tightened, and his knuckles turned white. "Caleb!" Veronica had followed him, arriving just in time to see the empty hospital ward—and the storm brewing in his expression. She had deliberately come to this hospital, faking discomfort in her hand as an excuse for a check-up. It hadn't surprised her when Caleb left Yasmin's side to accompany her. The thought of it had filled her with satisfaction. But what she hadn't expected was how quickly Caleb would leave the moment he confirmed her hand was fine. "You were supposed to stay and watch her," Caleb said coldly, not even sparing Veronica a glance. Instead, his sharp gaze locked onto Harris. "Mrs. Grant wanted a beverage," Harris admitted, lowering his head. "I stepped out to get it, and when I got back, the nurse said Ms. Rhodes had already taken her home." "Caleb, Yasmin and Ms. Rhodes are close," Veronica added quickly, forcing a smile.
