The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 1038

Once the vehicle came to a complete stop, Felicia sat in the back seat, her heart pounding erratically. Her hand instinctively drifted to her lower abdomen. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead, and her breathing grew sharp and shallow.

"Miss, are you alright?" the driver asked, genuinely concerned by her pale complexion.

Felicia swallowed hard, forcing herself to focus. "I am fine," she managed to say.

The driver pushed his door open, stepped out, and marched furiously toward the offending vehicle, immediately screaming at the other driver. Before Felicia could even open her own door, it was suddenly pulled open from the outside.

"Ms. Ross," a voice called out.

Felicia turned her head and recognized the driver Max had originally assigned to take her home. Since he was strictly following his boss's orders, he had trailed her taxi to ensure she made it home safely, even though she had refused his ride. Seeing her sitting there unharmed brought him immense relief.

"Please step out of the car, Ms. Ross. It is not safe here," he urged.

Felicia gathered her bearings and slowly climbed out. Kennedy had also pulled up and hurried over to check on her. "Are you hurt?" he asked anxiously.

Felicia completely ignored him once again, keeping her eyes fixed elsewhere. She ultimately accepted the Hawthorne driver's offer and got into his car. "Take me to the nearest hospital," she instructed.

Noticing her sickly pallor, the driver grew alarmed. "Are you injured somewhere?"

Felicia leaned her head against the seat back and did not answer. The driver dared not waste another second, speeding toward the nearest hospital. Upon arriving, Felicia explicitly forbade him from following her inside. Left with no choice, he waited in the ground floor lobby and quickly dialed Max's number.

The call connected. "Sir."

"What happened?" Max demanded.

The driver quickly explained the situation. "I do not know what happened to Ms. Ross. She is inside the hospital now, but she refused to let me follow her. From what I could see, she did not sustain any external injuries."
