Eleven Years All to the Wrong Man novel Chapter 208

Thomas felt a pang of concern seeing his daughter doing menial work. He believed that since Evan had hired Tessa to care for him, it was only natural for her to do her job.

"Dad!"

Melissa gave her father a disapproving look before saying softly, "She's been taking care of you all night; she must be tired. Since I'm back, let me look after you."

Her mood had improved drastically. The gloom and frustration of the past few days were gone, and she spoke to her father with more patience. The warmth between them was palpable.

Thomas smiled and asked, "Mr. Cooper wasn't upset with you because of that phone call I made, was he?"

At his words, Melissa's hand, which was wiping her father's arm, paused for a moment. Then, thinking of what happened last night, she smiled and shook her head. "No, he wouldn't get upset over something like that."

"That's good!"

"Sigh."

Thomas let out a breath. "I've been on edge these past few days, worried that my call upset Mr. Cooper and that he would take it out on you."

"How could he?" Melissa smiled gently. "He wouldn't be upset with me."

Before, Melissa wouldn't have had the confidence to say that. But now…

As they were talking, a nurse knocked on the door. "Mr. Carter, it's time for your tests at the lab!"

"Okay!"
