Chapter 203
Because of her hospitalization, Yvonne had to take a break from filming. Unexpectedly, the first person from the cast to visit her was Thomas.
“I only found out you were in the hospital when Ms. Jane mentioned it,” Thomas said, carrying flowers and get-well gifts.
“It was just a small injury that led to an infection, nothing serious. Thank you for taking the trouble to come all this way, Mr. Taylor,” Yvonne replied politely, sitting up in bed.
“Did you get hurt during the hotel fire? When the alarm went off, I went to your room to find you, but the door was open and you were gone,” Thomas said.
The day of the fire, he had rushed to her room immediately, but Yvonne was already gone.
After escaping the hotel, he sent people to search for her, but she was nowhere to be found. The next news he heard was that she had been taken to the hospital.
Thomas didn’t stay in the room for long.
He and Yvonne didn’t have much to talk about, and the silence between them was becoming a bit awkward. Besides, as the male lead, he had only managed to get a few hours off and had to rush back to the set.
After Thomas left, Helen placed the flowers he brought into a crystal vase on the windowsill.
As she arranged them, she couldn’t help but ask nosily, “Yvonne, is Mr. Taylor one of your admirers p>
“You’ve misunderstood. We’re just actors from the same set,” Yvonne replied.
“Mr. Taylor brought you red tulips. They symbolize a declaration of love. I think he has a secret crush on you,” Helen teased with a smile.
“You’re overthinking it. He probably just picked them randomly,” Yvonne said.
Just as she finished speaking, the door to the room opened. The doctor and a nurse came in for their rounds, with Bennett following behind them.
He glanced briefly at the red tulips on the windowsill before looking away.
The doctor examined Yvonne and confirmed that her fever had subsided and the inflammation was gone. She could be discharged after one more day of observation.
The next day, Bennett took care of her discharge paperwork and, seeing things through to the end, picked her up from the hospital.
Yvonne sat in his black Mercedes, still pale from her illness, looking frail and delicate.
She looked at Bennett in the driver’s seat and said, “Thank you for taking me back to the Spencer family’s villa p>

Yvonne fell silent.
George had failed in his attempt to silence her, so he probably wouldn’t dare try anything so brazen again for a while. Besides, she had nowhere else to go but the Spencer estate.
“Then Yvonne started to say she could go back to her school dorm, but Bennett had already started the car. The black Mercedes merged into the flow of traffic on the main road.
Finally, it pulled up in front of an apartment building in Cherry Bay.
“Get out,” Bennett said curtly before opening his own door and stepping out.
Yvonne obediently got out and followed him into the elevator and back to his apartment.
“Yvonne, you’re back!” Helen greeted her with a warm smile, bending down to offer her a new pair of women’s slippers.
“Thank you, Helen,” Yvonne said politely.

As she finished speaking, Bullet came bounding out of a room and pounced on
Yvonne, wagging his tail and panting excitedly to show his affection.
Yvonne reached out and ruffled Bullet’s big head, a gentle smile on her face.
Bennett stood to the side, glancing at Yvonne and Bullet without a word. He put his car keys down and walked toward his room.
