Chapter 2075

Before exiting, Sanford turned back to Matthew and remarked, “Ms.

Anderson is an excellent and charming woman.

I do hope I have the pleasure of meeting her again.

”

With those strange words hanging in the air, he didn’t spare Matthew another glance but opened the door and stepped out.

Matthew’s expression was icy and formidable.

His eyes radiated a chilling intensity, and his entire demeanor was cloaked in frost as he watched Sanford’s retreating figure.

Even as Sanford reached the door, he could sense Matthew’s piercing gaze on his back, yet he dismissed it with nonchalance.

Outside the ward, Sanford encountered Fernando, who regarded him with an equally frosty stare.

Sanford simply smiled and continued on his way.

In the ward, Matthew sat on the edge of the bed, his actions gentle as he held Stella’s cold hand.

He tenderly brushed her hair back from her face and touched her feverish forehead.

Guilt washed over him-he had left too early that morning and failed to notice her ill health.

Stella’s eyelids fluttered slightly, responding to his touch.

Meanwhile, Sanford entered the elevator, his thoughts lingering on the time he had spent with Stella.

With a smile playing at the corners of his mouth, he made a call.

“Grandpa,” he greeted the man on the other end of the line respectfully, and then added meaningfully, “He has a daughter.

”

The conversation was brief, lasting less than a minute.

After hanging up the phone, Sanford’s face held a profound expression, reflecting the weight of the conversation.

The elevator continued its descent, and before it reached the ground floor, his phone rang again.

The caller, speaking with deference, informed him, “Mr.

Quimby, someone is investigating the Lowell family.

”

Sanford raised an eyebrow, a hint of intrigue in his voice as he replied, “Is that so?”

A mysterious smile spread across his face.

With calculated calm, he added, “In that case, let’s lend them a hand and release this information.

”

Stella didn’t wake up until the infusion was done in the evening.

She was still a bit dazed when she saw Matthew.

Recalling what happened before she passed out, she asked, “Why are you here?”

She glanced around, confused, and asked, “Is this the hospital? Why am I here?”

Matthew replied, “Why didn’t you tell me you were sick? You even went to the launch event by yourself.

”

He wasn’t trying to blame Stella but was genuinely concerned, especially because of that strange man.

He couldn’t figure out his intentions, so he had to stay alert.

Seeing his stern face, Stella thought he was angry.

She held his hand and gently said, “I felt a bit off this morning, but I didn’t expect it to get this bad.

I’m sorry for worrying you.

”

To change the subject, Stella added, “By the way, do you know I gained a lot from the event today? I met the design director of Sanz Group and had a chat with him.

”
