Chapter 690Chapter 690
Ricky was also slightly dissatisfied and solemnly said, "Sean, you're in the wrong in this matter."
Mr. Herring Sr. was at a side and heavily sighed, "Have mercy on my granddaughter. What if she got worse? what should I do?"
There was a hint of blame between Mr. Herring Sr.'s lines.
Alice felt embarrassed and immediately apologized to Mr. Herring Sr. "I'm sorry about that. Sean was not being considerate in
this matter, and it caused Joelle to suffer."
Then, Alice turned around and continued muttering with dissatisfaction, "Sean, I don't know what you are thinking. Joelle is just a
girl. Can't you lessen her workload?"
Sean was speechless.
He wanted to explain for himself, but he simply did not bother to explain because his mother had directly concluded the situation.
On the other hand, Tony stood up for his boss when he saw that his boss was being misunderstood. He defended his boss and
said, " Madam, my boss told Ms. Herring to take sick leave and go home to rest. However, Ms. Herring was unwilling to and
insisted on working. So..."
'To put it harshly, Joelle was completely asking for it. This had nothing to do with my boss!' Tony
thought.
In the end, Alice did not listen to the explanation at all. Instead, she said to Tony, "And, what about
you? Why didn't you send Ms. Herring to the hospital when you knew she was sick?"
"I..." Tony dared not to talk back and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, ma'am. It was my fault."
At that moment, the door of the ward opened with a bang.The doctor had just checked on Joelle. After he walked out, he first let out a long sigh. Then, he said
respectfully to the rest, "Mr.
Anderson, Mrs. Anderson, Ms. Herring fainted due to a fever, and now the fever has subsided. It's not a
big deal currently. But, she needs to be hospitalized with IV drips for two days. After that, she'll be fine."
As soon as the doctor's words came out, Mr. Herring Sr.'s anxiousness finally calmed down.
"That's good, that's good!" Mr. Herring Sr. muttered in a deep voice.
Alice sighed and said, "I'm glad she's alright!"
Immediately, Alice turned around and instructed Sean, "Sean, you stay in the hospital and accompany
Ms. Herring!"
When Sean heard the words, he did not hesitate to refuse and said, "Mom, I..."
"Not another word!" said Alice.
Alice did not give Sean a chance to refute at all. she demanded, "No matter what, Joelle fainted
because of work. You have a responsibility that can't be shied away from. You are here to guard her
until she wakes up. 1
"Besides, Mr. Herring Sr. is too old to stay here all night. Your dad and I have to go home and rest. So,
it's just you."
That strong tone of Alice's could not be rejected at all.
Sean frowned slightly and wanted to refute, but he saw his parents winking at him.
That look was telling Sean that no matter what, he had to give a face to Mr. Herring Sr.After all, Mr. Herring Sr. had only one granddaughter. If anything happened to her, he would be very sad!
Sean could not refuse them any longer. He said in a low voice, " Okay, I understand."
"Well, we can rest assured with you around." Alice nodded in satisfaction.
Then, Alice turned around, she pulled Mr. Herring Sr. along and left together.
Only Sean and Tony were left looking at each other in the ward. Both of them felt helpless.
"Boss, how are you going to tell Ms. May?" Tony asked worriedly.
'If Ms. May found out that boss had been watching Ms. Herring in the hospital all night, she would definitely be angry, right?'
However, Sean had no intention of hiding it at all. He took out his cell phone and called Molly.
