Chapter 882 The Reason For Hospitalization
Dalores was startled by the sudden sound of the crackers.
She hadnât expected the surprise welcome-back party everyone had planned for Dracoâs hospital
discharge.
Dalores was upset and a little jealous of the other W Marks designers who were trying to please Draco.

Over the past few days she had made a special effort to visit and care for Draco alone, so that she
could get in his good books without anyone else taking the credit.
While everyone gathered happily for the cutting of the cake, Dalores stepped away and interrupted
them.
âItâs still office hours,â she barked. âWhat are you all doing here? This is a waste of company time. If
you want to slack off, just say it. Donât play tricks.â 3
âPlease donât be such a spoilsport here,â replied Tasha. âWe brought this cake for Mr. Wesley. You
didnât pay for it or do any of the decoration work, so you donât tell us what to do.â Tasha stared at
Dalores coldly.
Dalores snorted. âMr. Wesley has only just gotten out of the hospital. Heâs not in good health right now.
The doctor said that he shouldnât eat greasy or sugary food, let alone be frightened by crackers. Are
you trying to send Mr. Wesley back to the hospital?â
Tasha was speechless. The other designers all looked at each other. Disappointment spread across
every face in the room.
Dalores sneered. âWho was the one that decided you should spend all their working hours preparing a
surprise party?â she scolded. âMr. Wesley is going to return home soon, to rest. Now that youâve
arranged this event, it will only hinder his recovery. Stop it at once and clean everything up!â
Doloresâ words upset everyone further.
âItâs a surprise I asked everyone to prepare,â interjected Janet. âDo you object, Dalores?â Janet looked
at Dalores challengingly. She knew that Draco was worried about the studio and, as such, he wouldnât
have been able to rest now anyway. âIn addition to celebrating Mr. Wesleyâs discharge from the
hospital, weâre also celebrating the success of W Marks in Iridescent Show. Everyone here has worked
hard for W Marks. Why shouldnât they be allowed to spend ten minutes eating cake? Tasha, you can
clean the table after youâve finished your cake.â
Draco was browsing through the files, so he hadnât noticed whatâd been going on in their area. Hearing
Janetâs voice, he turned his head and said, âThe success of our studio in Iridescent Show is indeed
worth celebrating. Everyone, please go ahead and enjoy your cake. Donât worry about me.â (0
Draco then turned around and walked into his office.
âGreat!â someone cried happily. Everyone was overjoyed. They stopped cleaning, gathered back
together and started cutting the cake.
Only Dalores, with her gloomy expression, was squeezed aside by the crowd. Despite her anger at the
situation, she stayed silent.
Janet tasted the cake and her eyes lit up. âWhere did you buy this cake?â she marveled. âItâs delicious,
and not greasy at all.â
It was indeed a fabulous cake.
âI made it myself,â replied Tasha, blushing. âI used dairy cream, especially.â Tasha smiled shyly. She
always blushed at the slightest praise. âIf you like it, I can teach you how to make it next time youâre
over at my place,â she offered.
Janet nodded. The designers were gathered together still, chatting fervently. âDo you know why Mr.
Wesley was hospitalized this time?â one asked.
âThere are rumors about it everywhere,â another replied. âSomeone even suggested that Mr. Wesley
was bewitched.â âOr did someone attack him? I heard that there was a riot on Janet and Mr. Wesleyâs
flight, and the plane didnât take off on time. I guess Mr. Wesley was shot. Did you notice the bandage
on his arm?â
Hearing them speculate about the reason behind Dracoâs hospitalization, Dalores seized her
opportunity.
She walked over wearing an evil smile. âDo you want to know the reason?â she jeered. âOnly one of us
knows the truth â Janet. After all, she was with Mr. Wesley that day.â 3 The two designers glanced at
Janet nervously.
Though Dalores didnât know the specific reason, she knew that Janet must have been involved
somehow.
She looked pointedly at Janet and said, in a raised voice, âJanet, why donât you answer everyoneâs
questions? Why was Mr. Wesley hospitalized?â
