“What did you say?”He then realized his gaffe and quickly and clearly clarified something.
After hanging up, he looked at Jared with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
“Boss, Lloyd said someone would come and perform the surgery on Nicole’s grandfather.
The doctor is of high caliber and has surpassed Lloyd two years earlier.
He asked us not to worry,” Claus said.
“But how did he know about this?”
With the Riddle family’s stature, they should not have been able to contact Lloyd at all.
There was a glimmer in Jared’s eyes.
He pressed the elevator button, hurried in, and soon reached the ground floor.
Claus was following behind him, looking at his back in puzzlement, not knowing what his boss was
thinking.
But when the elevator doors opened, and he saw Nicole’s beautiful and indifferent face, he seemed to
have figured out something.
It turned out that Nicole was downstairs.
No wonder Jared was staring out the window when he was in the hospital CEO’s office.
Thinking of this, he looked at the two of them and smiled ambiguously, then walked outside with a key in
his hand.
“I’ll go get the car.
You two talk,” Claus said.
Jared looked at Nicole in front of him, her face as calm and composed as ever, looking as if nothing
could affect her judgment.
Even if there was a landslide in front of her, she would still not bat an eyelid.
There was a knowing look in his eyes when what Claus had just said came to mind.
His eyes sparkled in the light as if lights were refracted through his pupils.
Nicole looked at him, but there was no emotion in her eyes.
“Did you see your grandfather?” Jared asked, his smile gentle and his voice soft.
Nicole nodded and stepped into the elevator.
“You go back first.
Thank you for sending me here today.”
Jared said nothing more, just watching as the elevator doors closed and Nicole disappeared from his
sight.
He stood where he was and gently clenched his fingers.
He thought that after what they had been through together abroad, she would change her mind about
him.
But he was wrong; she was still so distant.
He even felt a bit of frustration.

Nicole was back on the tenth floor.
When Steve saw her back, he let out a gentle smile.
“That’s fast.”
Nicole acknowledged him as she went into the ward first to take a look at Mr. Riddle Sr.
After confirming that nothing had changed, she came out and said to Daniel and Gloria, “The equipment
and medical service here are not up to snuff.
I plan to transfer grandpa to another hospital.”
“Transfer grandpa to another hospital?’ Daniel and Gloria glanced at each other with a baffled look in
their eyes.
They thought this was the best hospital in San Joto.
If Nicole did not even
think it was good enough, they did not know where else to go.
Nicole looked at their faces and let out a gentle smile.
“Don’t worry.
Leave it all to me,” she
said.
