Investigation on the Herbs (2)
Edward understood his president’s wishes. He then ended the call and went to the hospital. Per
Nicholas’ instructions, he transferred Remus into a VIP ward and informed the hospital of his
president’s instructions.
The arrangement soon reached the ears of Tobias and Stefania.
Later that night, Nicholas went back to the main house for dinner.
During dinner, Tobias questioned the matter. “This evening, you asked Edward to transfer the old man
into a VIP ward and banned the Stone Family from visiting. Is there something going on here?”
As Tobias posed his question, Stefania had also turned her attention to Nicholas.
Nicholas replied in an indifferent tone, “Nothing is going on. I just think that Grandpa needs to be in a
quiet environment to recuperate.”
He did not intend to divulge what the Stone Family had done before having clear evidence on hand.
Since both Tobias and Stefania were unaware of Stone Family’s actions, they had no reason to doubt
Nicholas’ explanation.
Stefania then continued feeding Gregory. “Greg, you’ll have to eat more,” she said while placing food in
Gregory’s bowl.
Gregory thanked her in a cute and soft manner. He then followed Stefania’s example in placing food in
her bowl as well and said softly, “Grandma should eat more as well.”
Stefania was over the moon and immediately ate the food Gregory gave her while showing off to
Tobias.
Tobias was slightly provoked by his wife’s bragging, which prompted him to stare intently at Gregory.
Naturally, Gregory understood what his grandpa wanted, to which he complied by placing some food in
his grandpa’s bowl. “You too, Grandpa.”
As a result, a faint smile crept onto Tobias’ serious face.
Laughter continued to spread from the grandparents and grandchild.
Kieran was watching them enjoying themselves before turning his attention to his quiet brother. He felt
that Nicholas was hiding something in regard to Remus’ incident.
After finishing dinner, Tobias and Stefania brought Gregory to the garden for a walk.
Nicholas, on the other hand, went to the study room on the second floor to handle company
documents.
However, Kieran came in soon after Nicholas took his seat.
“Nicholas, tell me the truth. Did you ban the Stone Family from visiting Grandpa because they did
something?” With both his palms on the table, Kieran stared at his brother with curiosity in his eyes.
Nicholas looked up from the file he was reading and, with no intention of hiding the truth, answered in
an indifferent tone, “Grandpa’s sudden heart failure was not from a natural cause, but was triggered by
something he shouldn’t have eaten.”
“And this ‘something’ was a gift from the Stone Family.” As though a lightbulb went off in his head,
Kieran instantly connected the dots as he recalled his brother’s arrangement at the hospital.
Subsequently, he looked at Nicholas in shock.
Nicholas did not deny his brother’s deduction. “I’ve asked Edward to investigate it this afternoon. It
seems that some time ago, Hayley and her mother had gone to a herbal store and had specifically
asked for two herbs that are not meant to be taken together. Furthermore, the staff that made the sale
that day had quit a few days later and vanished without a trace.”
The next morning, Hayley came to the hospital again to visit Remus.
“I’m sorry, Miss Stone. But President Sawyer has instructed us that you are not allowed to visit the
patient.” The bodyguards outside the VIP ward stopped Hayley from entering.
Hayley was bewildered and asked in a panic, “Why am I not allowed to visit? Does Old Master Sawyer
know about this?”
One of the bodyguards answered in an indifferent tone, “This is an order from President Sawyer. If you
have any problems with it, you’ll have to take it up to the president.”
After that, he said nothing further as he continued to stand guard in front of the door.
Hayley had no other choice but to leave. Naturally, she couldn’t ask Nicholas about the arrangement
made. After all, she felt guilt lurking in her heart.
After she returned to Stone Enterprise, she immediately went to the chairman’s office and
apprehensively told her father about what had happened at the hospital. “Dad, do you think that
Nicholas banned us from visiting Old Master Sawyer because he had figured out what we did?”
Nero fell into deep thoughts. Seconds later, he shook his head and explained, “I’m afraid you’re
overthinking this. If Nicholas really did figure us out, he would have definitely come at us considering
his temper. However, since nothing is happening right now, I assume that he’s just doing this to protect
Old Master Sawyer.”
Though Hayley felt that her father’s words made sense, she still felt a little uneasy about it.
Needless to say, Nero noticed Hayley’s unease, which was why he continued, “Don’t think too hard
about it. There will always be appropriate measures for the actual situation. Nevertheless, we have
already achieved our objective. Right now, you should be seizing the opportunity to get closer to
Nicholas.”
