Mitchell did not even have to think about notifying Eric’s family.
Quinn would only act anxious if she found out.
If she came, she would cause trouble for Eric, so she might as well not come.
Chance was well-behaved, but he was too young, and he could not make any decisions for Eric.
Eric also did not care about him.
Thus, Mitchell did not think about informing anyone.
After much deliberation, Mitchell decided to stay by himself.He fell asleep on the sofa.
After a while, Mitchell forgot that Selena was also in the ward.
The next day, Eric woke up earlier than anyone.
Looking at the unfamiliar environment around him, Eric remembered what he saw when he was in the car last night, as well as his physical discomfort.He was in the hospital.
Eric sat up, rubbed his temples, and sobered up.
Just as he was about to call for someone, he saw that there was another hospital bed not far away from him.
A familiar-looking woman was lying on the bed.He froze for a moment.
The next second, his face darkened.
Eric’s body started to exude a chill.
He rolled over and got out of bed with heavy eyes.
After sleeping all night, his stomach felt much better.
His hair hung over his forehead, which made him look lazy and unkempt.
As soon as he walked out, he saw that Mitchell was sleeping on the sofa outside.
He frowned immediately, walked across the room, and sat down on the sofa.
Mitchell fell into a deep sleep.
However, Eric had a strong presence.He stood up and opened the curtains.
When the light shone in, Mitchell instantly reacted.lay.cua.thuyHis eyes snapped open.
“President?”
Eric responded with a deep voice.His eyes were dark as he glanced inside.
“What’s going on?”
His voice was low and hoarse.
Mitchell paused because he had forgotten about Selena.
“Um…After I filled up the registration form for you last night, I happened to meet her abusive husband outside, waiting to find trouble with her.I was afraid that she would die if I left her there, so I had to place her in here…”
Eric’s eyes darkened a little, and he rubbed his temples.He stood up and said, “Get the discharge procedures done.I want to leave right away.”
“President, the doctor said that you can’t be discharged from the hospital for the time being because you need to stay for observation for two days.In the future, you have to eat regularly and stay away from alcohol…”
Just as Mitchell was about to endlessly convey the doctor’s instructions, Eric stopped him with a look.
How could he possibly stay away from alcohol? Even if Eric was the CEO, he still had to socialize with others, especially with those bigwigs who were older than him and loved to put up a front.
Thus, he had to drink with them.
Eric did not say much and went back to the office with his things.
He had more clothes to change into in the office than at home.
Thus, he had no intention of going home at all.
Mitchell sighed and could only follow.
Fortunately, Eric did not kick Selena out of his ward.
Nicole got up early in the morning and went to the office.
After finishing her task at hand, she suddenly thought of Selena.
Selena was special.
Nicole always had a strange feeling about Selena.
They looked somewhat similar, and Nicole could feel that they were curious about each other.
It was natural and completely harmless.
Now that Selena was in the hospital, Nicole could not pretend not to know about it.
Julie and Nicole frequented the bar, so they would get acquainted with Selena in the future.
Nicole thought about it for a while and sent Julie a message, asking if she wanted to go to the hospital together.
Soon, Julie replied.
[Sure.] Nicole breathed a sigh of relief, told Clayton about it, and drove out.
Julie and Nicole met in the hospital lobby.
Julie was a little surprised.
“Why do you want to come here to see Selena?”
“After all, I was also involved in the incident last night, so I can’t pretend as if nothing happened.We can make a new friend if we visit her.”
Nicole held a bouquet of flowers that she bought along the way.
Julie paused for a moment.
“I didn’t have time to tell you last night.Ms.Nelson is actually quite pitiful.”
“How so?”
“She’s Orville Nelson’s only granddaughter, and they depended on each other.In fact, they should have a good relationship, but that old man sold her to a scumbag like Derek because of the family business.She has an unfortunate marriage and life.She went abroad for three years and came back again to face the same fate.The old man clearly knew that she was suffering, but he didn’t care and refused to let her get a divorce.He threatened her by saying that he would die if she got a divorce.What else can she do if she’s being morally kidnapped?”
Julie sighed.
“She probably bought that bar with the money she earned from working abroad.As soon as she returned to Mediania, Derek Norton targeted her.Derek was annoyed that she escaped three years ago and hated her.He also knew that she would not dare to get a divorce.That’s why he beat her so recklessly.”
Selena had a tough life because she did not have her family’s support.
Instead, her closest relative even threatened her.
Nicole just felt sorry for Selena.
The two ladies asked a nurse about Selena’s ward.
The nurse looked at them warily and asked, “Are you two her friends?”
“Yes, we’re her friends.”
Nicole nodded.
The nurse told them a room number.
“You can go there, but I hope you won’t tell anyone else this room number, especially her husband.”
Julie and Nicole looked at each other and nodded.
The person who sent Selena here had probably told the doctors and nurses about Selena’s situation.
The moment the bodyguards at the door saw Nicole, they were surprised, but they still let Julie and Nicole inside without a word.
Selena woke up.
Mitchell was soft-hearted.He asked Eric for permission to hire the caregiver who had taken care of Selena last time.
However, the caregiver was not there yet.
Selena heard the commotion and looked over.
When she saw Nicole and Julie, her eyes lit up.
That pretty and flirtatious face looked surprised.
“You girls came?”
Selena was pale and looked very weak.
Nicole and Julie walked in, put the flowers aside, and said with a smile, “I hope you’re not allergic to flowers.”
“No.It’s beautiful.Thank you.”
“My name is Nicole Stanton, and this is Julie Nixon.”
“I’m Selena Nelson.”
This was the first time they introduced themselves.
“All this happened so suddenly last night, so I couldn’t come to the hospital with you.I feel a little guilty for that.”
Nicole spoke sincerely.
Selena’s eyelashes trembled, and she smiled with a pale face.
“I implicated you.I wanted to say hello to you, but I almost got you hurt.”
Nicole and Julie were sitting on the side.
The sunlight shone through the window and cast an orangey-red light on everything.
“You girls should go to my bar more often.I’ll give you a 50% discount!” Selena smiled happily.
Nicole smiled and nodded.
“Sure! Thank you, Ms.Nelson.”
Julie looked at the medical chart on the side of the bed and could not help but sigh.
“Your injury is so serious.”
Selena’s smile subsided slightly, and her eyes dimmed.
“Well, I can’t help it.To be honest, this beating was for nothing.I wouldn’t be surprised if I died at his hands that day.”
Nicole’s face froze slightly.
“Are you planning to go on like this?”
