CHAPTER 838: CHAPTER 838: SUDDEN INCIDENT AT THE HOSPITAL

In the middle of their meal, a sudden urgent ring from a mobile phone shattered the tranquility of the restaurant.

Obviously, the sound came from Jasper Sinclair’s pocket.

Before he even took out his phone, his brows furrowed tightly. Seeing this, Nora Northwood said, "You’ve been frowning a lot lately, it doesn’t look good."

Upon hearing this, Jasper Sinclair finally relaxed his brow.

But it was only for a second. After seeing the caller ID, his headache started again.

Instead of answering, he pressed the mute button.

Nora Northwood understood what was happening with just a glance, so she kindly said, "Go ahead, I don’t mind."

It wasn’t that Jasper Sinclair thought she minded, he just didn’t want to affect their rare moment together.

Though the ringing stopped, the blue glow of the screen kept flashing.

Nora spoke again, "What if it’s something urgent?"

Recalling the situation, Jasper Sinclair realized that everything seemed to be going wrong at the moment.

After a slight hesitation, he swiped to answer the call.

"Mr. Sinclair, Miss Peach Bell has woken up, but... but she’s screaming and threatening to kill herself. We really don’t know what to do."

Jasper Sinclair didn’t have the speaker on, so the person sitting opposite could only catch bits and pieces of the conversation.

How perceptive was Nora Northwood?

How could she not figure out who the main person in this call was?

She heard Jasper Sinclair’s cold and heavy voice ring in her ears: "Did I spend money to hire a bunch of useless doctors?"

Vaguely, Nora Northwood realized he was becoming more like his old self.

"Mr. Sinclair, the situation is worse than you think. Miss Bell even refuses to see her own brother..."

The doctor ended his sentence weakly.

There was a bit of failure on their part, but they couldn’t be entirely blamed.

At this moment, Peach Bell was worse than a lunatic.

In front of Nora, Jasper Sinclair couldn’t talk about leaving, so he simply indicated that he understood.

The doctors were helpless with Peach Bell and couldn’t figure out what the patron wanted, making the situation extremely awkward.

After the call ended, Nora Northwood proactively asked, "Is Peach Bell in bad condition?"

From the previous conversation, she deduced the young girl should be receiving treatment in a hospital.

Jasper Sinclair replied in a very cold manner, "She won’t die."

Nora Northwood couldn’t understand what there was to be angry about.

She set down her chopsticks and brought it up again, "I’ll go with you to the hospital to take a look."

"It’s not necessary, you stay here, go nowhere."

"That sounds like you’re going to confine me. The hospital must be in trouble, otherwise, they wouldn’t bother you at this time. If you don’t want me to go with you, then you should at least go yourself. After all, it’s a life at stake."

Nora Northwood spoke sincerely, making it hard to tell whether her words were genuine or not.

After her repeated persuasion, Jasper Sinclair finally took her along to the hospital.

Hospital.

Nora Northwood followed Jasper Sinclair through the inpatient department building.

Lone elderly people were everywhere, even at night, the corridors were crowded with people.

Nora Northwood disliked the smell of disinfectant in hospitals and instinctively covered her nose, closely following Jasper Sinclair’s footsteps.

The two stopped outside a room deeper inside, she said, "You go in, I’ll wait at the door."
