"Miss Miley, you can call Mr Lombard and ask for his permission, the other one advised. If he agrees. We will let you in."
The bodyguards still weren't showing any emotions. Not even a tiny bit of guilt on the wonder presented to them by her husband.
As Miley was wrathfully cursing her husband, Dexter was sitting in his room, religiously looking at his phone and expecting a call from her.
Unaware she had other plans, he dejectedly picked up his phone when he got a call from the bodyguard in the hospital.
"Where is Miley?" asked Dexter with a sharp tone. He made sure Miley was restricted from entering Cassidy's ward. If she wanted to see her best friend who still hadn't woken up, all she had to do was call Dexter.
"Mr Lombard. Miss Miley.…"
Before the bodyguard could finish his words, his phone was snatched by Dexter.
"It's me, Sam. Dexter! Don't be so loser."
"Mister, stop." The bodyguard snatched the phone again from Sam.
Milley came back home straight from the hospital. She drank a cup of water in the living room as she stared blankly at the lawn in the yard from the window.

Kelvin booked a place in one of the restaurants which were part of his numerous properties. In this way, they could continue to drink even after dinner and no one would be able to disturb them.
They waited for Dexter to finish up with his work before they went to have dinner together. At the same time, they also called Kelvin to join them.
He was the last to arrive. After they entered the private room, all the dishes were served. He sat down next to Dexter and took out an ointment from his pocket and gave it to him.
"Take it back for Miley. She needs to use it to get rid of the scars on her face," Kelvin told Dexter.
Dexter looked at the ointment with indifference and said, "Ask her to come and get it from you in the hospital. Don't disturb me with petty matters."
"Aren't you going back home tonight? You can give it to her when you go back," Kelvin said on purpose.
"Who said I'm going back tonight?" he asked, looking at Kelvin sternly.
Miley was cleaning her room when she received a call from Sam. She rushed her pace before grabbing her phone and answering in a hurry.
"Sam, what's wrong?" she asked.
"Is Dexter at home? Did he do anything to you?" Sam asked, his tone was urgent and full of concern.
Miley smiled slightly hearing his tone. She felt both sorrowful and thankful that someone was worrying about her.
"Sam, Dexter hasn't come back home yet, but he is not as terrible as you think. You can be assured that he won't do anything to me."
"Okay. Take rest" Sam said before he hung up the phone.
Inside Zac Club at the card tables, a person glanced in the direction of the man drinking silently by himself at a corner and whispered his question, "Mr Lombard seems to be in a foul mood lately."
"Just focus on the game!" Kelvin flicked his deck of cards on the table and announced, "I've won the game. Pay up, guys."
Outside of the private room, Dexter was holding his phone in one hand while his slender finger was texting Tristan. He then placed his phone into his pants pocket and… Pow! Before he knew it, he just took a punch in his face.
He stumbled back and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb before raising his head slowly.
"Sam! Do you have a death wish?" Dexter screamed.
Sam was about to step forward again, Kelvin appeared and quickly subdued him.
"Dexter. You clearly know how important Cassidy is to Miley, but you still threatened her on purpose. Is it necessary for you to do this? Are you really a man?"
-----
It was 11.00PM and Miley was lying on her bed after taking a shower. She was about to listen to music before going to bed when her phone rang.
"Hello. Miss Miley. Can you please come to Zac club?" asked Kelvin on the other end of the phone.
"What happened, Dr. Kelvin?" Miley asked politely.
"Dexter was hit by Sam. It was little complicated here." Kelvin informed.
Miley hurriedly changed her clothes after hanging up the phone. As soon as she walked out of the bedroom, Tina asked, "Miss Miley, where are you going at this hour?"
"Sam has beaten Dexter. Dexter was in rage." Miley replied quickly.
"Wait a minute, I'll get changed and drive you there." Tina offered to accompany Miley.
Twenty minutes later, their car stopped at the entrance of Zac Club.
Miley and Tina entered one after another, but Tina was stopped by the Kelvin when they arrived at the VIP room on the second floor.
