Chapter 288

Jon had sustained multiple soft tissue injuries at the bar and also suffered a mild concussion. The doctors advised him to remain in the hospital for observation.

Because of Penelope's involvement in Jon's injuries, she decided to stay in Johnsonville until he recovered. Based on my calculations, he should be ready for discharge soon.

"I'll inform you once I've made the necessary arrangements," Penelope stated.

"If anything happens, please call me immediately!" I urged.

"Did you have something to tell me?"
