When the scene quieted down, Clint immediately took advantage of the moment and brought over the security personnel from the hospital to get rid of the reporters.
âMr. Granger, are you alright?â
Clint asked.
Amosâs face didnât change as he replied, âDoes it look like there is anything wrong with me?â
âOf course not!â Clint shook his head.
He knew that Amos was most concerned about the fact that he was getting old. Therefore, he did not want to point that fact out at that moment.
However, Amos was still unhappy.
He pressed his lips tightly together for a while.
Then, he said, âFind out who Hogan Fisher is! How can such a person be qualified to be a reporter?â
âOkay!â Clint nodded.
Truth be told, Clint was thinking to himself that Amos was too protective of his family. The journalist was indeed a little annoying, and his words were unpleasant to the ear.
However, there were many entertainment journalists who talked the same way for the purpose of creating headlines that would attract public attention. Most people did not take it to heart, as at most they just got angry on the spot.
Hogan had probably thought that he would get a juicy headline from the interview but he had no idea that it would cost him his job!
Clint immediately went to deal with it, and Amos turned back. When he turned, he saw Nelson standing behind him. He frowned and said in a low voice.
He frowned and said in a low voice, âWhat are you doing here?â
Nelson came to his senses and replied, âOh! I came out to see if thereâs anything I can help with!â
âThereâs no need!â Amos said icily, and walked back in!
Nelson pursed his lips and was about to follow him when Clint returned.
âEh? Whereâs President Granger?â
Nelson answered, âHe went in.â
Clint nodded his head. He saw that Nelson had a depressed expression on his face and thought that Amos must have scolded him, therefore he comforted Nelson casually.
âPresident Granger is not as bad as you think he is. He is loyal and affectionate, definitely a person worth befriending.â
It was probably the first time in Nelsonâs life that he had heard of Amos being loyal and affectionate!
The media always mentioned that Amos was merciless in the business industry, while gossip magazines would say that Amos was doted on his wife a lot. His subordinates would say that he was a far-sighted man.
However, no one had ever said that he was loyal and affectionate!
In particular, when he thought of what happened to Tiffany, he only felt irony in his heart.
As he thought about it, a cold smile appeared on his lips. He asked, âIs that so?â
Clint nodded but failed to notice Nelsonâs expression. He seemed to be reminiscing about the past, and his voice was quite pious.
âOf course itâs true! Iâve known President Granger for decades. How could I not know? And Mr. Luther, you may not agree with what Iâve said, but look at yourself! Tiffany deceived the Granger family like that, but President Granger did not care about the past and sent you abroad to settle down!â
As soon as the topic was brought up, Nelson became even more furious.
However, with his current position, he could not get angry!
He merely snorted, âThen, I should thank President Granger!â
âYou donât believe me?â Clint was not stupid. Nelsonâs sarcasm was so obvious that he couldnât have missed it.
âItâs true. You were young at that time, so itâs possible that you donât believe me! Tiffany did a lot of bad things when she was in the Granger family. In the end, she was sent to prison due to her own fault.â
âHowever, the Granger family never mistreated you! Later, you came back from abroad and lost contact with them. No one wanted those things to happen! President Granger had also sent people to search for you for a long timeâ¦â
However, as Clint spoke about the memories from the past, Nelson felt depressed in his heart.
Therefore, no matter what Clint said, he only felt irritation in his heart.
He was worried that he would lose his composure, therefore he interrupted Clint.
âThatâs not what I meant! Of course, I believe what youâve said!â
Clint nodded and added, âThatâs good! Truth be told, President Granger has a sharp tongue but a soft heart! He said that he doesnât like you now, but if Miss Naomi insists on being together with you, heâll eventually compromise!â
Clint reached his hand out and patted Nelsonâs shoulder after saying so.
âItâll be fine!â
After Clint left, Nelsonâs mobile phone rang. He answered the call.
Moniqueâs voice sounded, âWhat? Youâre still in the hospital? You donât want to come back?â
Nelson replied with his brows furrowed, âMy personal hours will not affect my work, will it?â
âIt wonât, but Iâve worked hard to connect you to them! Now that the most critical time has come, Iâm afraid that you will have cold feet. If thatâs the case, that wouldnât be good!â
âNo, I wonât do that!â Nelson said in a low voice.
âThatâs good! As long as your mentality is firm, I wonât be worried. Then, you should stay in the hospital and accompany Naomi more! Itâs your reward! When youâve settled down after a few days, you can return to the company!â
After that, Monique hung up on the call.
Nelson stared at his phone in shock. For some reason, he felt that something was amiss.
However, before he could think it through, the voices of the two nurses sounded in front of him.
âThe patient at bed number 75 suddenly has a high fever. Hurry up and call the attending doctor back.â
Bed number 75?
Nelsonâs heart tightened as he called out, âNaomi!â
â¦
In the ward, the nurses surrounded the bed for an emergency treatment.
As soon as Nelson entered the door, he saw Eudora leaning on Amosâ shoulder, her eyes red and swollen. The entire situation made Nelsonâs heart pound.
âHowâs Naomi? Why has she suddenly contracted a high fever?â
Amos stayed quiet, but Eudora answered his question.
âThe nurse said there might be complicationsâ¦â
While they talked, the attending doctor entered from outside. The nurse immediately came over to drive them away, saying, âFamily members, please wait outside. The doctor is going to examine her!â
âNaomi!â Nelson looked at Naomiâs face which was as pale as a ghost. He suddenly shouted, âNaomi, weâve already agreed to get married! You canât go back on your word!â
Such a love confession in the ward was incredibly touching.
When Eudora and Amos heard his words, they looked at Nelson, perhaps recalling their past selves.
The time that followed was extraordinarily long.
After an hour, the doctor came out tiredly.
âShe has temporarily stabilized. The patientâs willpower is quite tenacious. Itâs a blessing in disguise! She has stabilized and is awake now!â
âYes!â Eudora was pleasantly surprised as she ran in.
When Nelson heard this, he hurriedly followed in as well.
In the ward, Eudora held Naomiâs hand.
âYou scared your mother to death! Why didnât you tell us that such a big incident happened?â
Naomi was still a little weak. When she heard his words, she said softly in Eudoraâs arms like a spoiled child, âIâm sorry, Mom. I delayed your recovery!â
âYou silly girl!â Eudora sighed as she replied, âIs my body or you more important?â
Naomi gave a sly smile as she said, âMomâs health is most important!â
âNonsense!â Eudora laughed.
Nelson saw the smile on Naomiâs face, and his mood gradually calmed down! Truth be told, Naomi had already spotted him earlier.
In her eyes, Nelson was her lover, a man bathed in golden light. How could she not spot him the moment he entered the room?
