At the hotel, Jared took out his cell phone and called Nicole.
"What are you doing now?"
"Just woke up.How about you?"
"I'm at the hotel.You must be exhausted from the days I was away, are you?"
"No, you can hear in my voice that I'm full of energy." Nicole joked about herself.
"How are things going on your end?" Nicole asked how he was doing abroad.
"It is going well.I guess I will be back soon."
"So, when will you be back? I will pick you up."
Nicole was happy to hear Jared say he was coming back.
"The date is not set yet.I will let you know when it is set."
"Okay."
It was a false hope for Nicole.
"Has grandpa's condition changed these days?"
Jared's biggest concern when he came abroad was his grandfather's condition.
"Nothing has changed, just a little better than when you left."
Nicole reported the good news, but not the bad.She did not tell him about the fake doctor's injection to
Mr.Johnston Sr., afraid that he was worried about him.
"Thank you.I feel much more at ease with you by Grandpa's side."
Jared was grateful to Nicole.
"Why do you always say thank you? Aren't we a family? That is what family is for," Nicole said.
"It is still dark on your side, right? I won't keep you from sleeping.Get some rest early.иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмI
will wait for you to come back"
"Don't hang up yet.I will give you a present," Jared said dotingly.
"What kind of present can you send from so far away?"
Nicole did not believe he could send a present.
"Muah!"
Jared sent her an affectionate kiss over the air.
Nicole smiled and reciprocated with hers.
"Good night."
Jared hung up the phone and then called Max.
"Book my flight home.You can take over the rest from here."
"Mr.Johnston, it is nighttime.Do you want to leave now?"
"Yes"!
"Okay, I will book the next flight for you right away."
Max drove Jared to the airport.
On the plane, Jared was thinking about Nicole's face when she saw him, and he fell asleep thinking
about it.
When he opened his eyes again, it was the flight attendant who woke him up.
"Mr.Johnston, the plane is about to land.For your safety, please adjust your seat.Thank you for your
cooperation."
Jared looked out the window; the sun was high, and it seemed to be almost noon.
In the hospital, Nicole was sitting on the chair in the ward as usual when the door of the ward was
pushed open suddenly.She looked at the door and asked, "What are you doing here again?"
Harvey looked at her with a serious face.
"I was here today fora medical check-up, so I came up to see Mr.Johnston Sr."
While speaking, he walked over to check the equipment.
"Hasn't he woken up yet?"
Nicole ignored him, thinking that he was probably the only one who could come up with such an
excuse.
"Don't look.Sit down and don't touch the machine."
"Come on, I'm just concerned about Mr.Johnston Sr.By the way, he has been in a coma for a few days,
right? If he doesn't wake up, will he..."
Harvey hesitated halfway through.
"No, the doctor changed a new medication, and he should wake up soon."
Nicole looked with confidence at Mr.Johnston Sr.whose eyes were still shut tight.
After using the new medication, the toxins in his body should be gradually drained out, and he was
supposed to wake up after all the toxins injected by the fake doctor were drained out.
Harvey thought Nicole was too sad and paranoid.So he tried to comfort her.
"Relax, don't think too much.He has been in a coma for so many days..You can't force it.As long as he
is alive, he is going to wake up one day.It is just a matter of time."
"Are you trying to comfort me?" th.Nicole looked at him in puzzlement.
