"It can't be a boyfriend," Zuri Ginger teased, "she's engaged, there's no way she'd be that indiscreet."
Her voice was soft and smiling, but it hadn't defused an ounce of Charlotte Chester's anger. Just as she was about to continue scolding, Mia Ginger turned her head, and walked straight towards the exit of the hall.
"Stop right there!" Charlotte shouted furiously, but Mia didn't even look back, her pace quickening until Charlotte's voice faded completely.
Finally enjoying some peace, she broke into a jog and flagged down a taxi by the roadside.
After giving the address, Mia leaned back in the seat and closed her eyes for about half an hour before the taxi stopped outside the hospital's main entrance.
The six-story outpatient building stood tall in a semicircle. She got out of the car, thought for a moment, then entered directly.
She didn't have a phone, which Louis Cox knew.
