"A glass of water early in the morning is enough.I have made you some porridge."
Jared put a bowl of porridge in front of Nicole.
After having a glass of water, Nicole was more awake, and she looked up at Jared.
"How did I get back yesterday?" Jared looked at her with a frown.
"You don't remember?" Nicole shook her head.
"I don't remember."
"I carried you back yesterday, and you were fighting back.It took me a lot of effort to get you back.My
shoulder is still sore."
Jared wanted to laugh at the memory of last night.
"What are you laughing at?"
Nicole could tell Jared was holding back his laughter.
"I'm not laughing." Jared denied it.
"I saw you laugh.Stop denying."
"Where is Carl? Is he still sleeping?"иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмNicole asked Jared as she looked around and
saw no sign of Carl.
"I arranged for Carl to stay in the presidential suite.He stayed there last night."
The scene of Carl holding Nicole's hand and singing together last night came to mind at the mention of
Carl.
"Oh, thank you."
‘Is she saying thank you on behalf of Carl? Is it possible that in her mind, Carl is closer to her than I
am?" Jared looked not too happy at the thought, but he still cared for her.
"Have some porridge and then go up to rest.I will go to the hospital first."
"Okay, bye."
Nicole glanced at him, then lowered her head again.
Jared sighed helplessly, got up, and put on his suit, then walked outside.
After Jared left, Nicole ate nothing.She just poured another glass of water and took it upstairs.
When Jared arrived at the hospital, Mr.Johnston Sr.had already woken up from his nap and greeted
him when he saw Jared walk in.
"Grandpa, you are awake early today."
Jared came to the bedside and sat down to talk to him.
"The nurse opened the window for me this morning.The air is very fresh."
Mr.Johnston Sr.had a better spirit now, and he could finish a sentence without taking a breath.
"Your spirits are getting better every day.Do your wounds still hurt?" Jared asked.
"It doesn't hurt as long as I don't move.It is better than the first day I woke up."
Mr.Johnston Sr.started to have a smile on his face.
"Where is Nicole?" he asked.
"She is not feeling well today, so I asked her not to come."
Jared found a random excuse, not wanting to mention what happened last night.
"Let her rest at home if she is not feeling well.She doesn't need to come here every day.You too; the
company has so many things waiting for you to take care of.I'm fine here.Don't worry about me."
Mr.Johnston Sr.looked at Jared with kindness and understanding.
"Understood.It is not busy these days, so I don't have to be at the office all the time."
Jared did not dare to tell him that Henry was the acting chairman now, so that he would not get angry,
lest it affected his recovery.
"Oh."
Mr.Johnston Sr.nodded his head.
At this time, the doctor was doing his rounds.
"Doctor, did you get the results of the last lab test?"
Jared looked at the doctor.
"It is out.Some of the patient's health indicators are slightly low, but there are signs of recovery, and
they are rising every day.So there is no need to worry."
"That is good.How long will it take for my grandfather to return to normal and be discharged from the
hospital?"
"It is still hard to tell.There is no way to deduce it based on the current situation."
"Jared, there is no hurry.I can rest anywhere anyway."
Mr.Johnston Sr.was expansive.
