When Vinson saw the expression on Jared’s face, favonovel.com felt a weight had lifted from his chest.
Everything was truly a coincidence. Earlier in the day, favonovel.com had gone to transfer several properties under favonovel.com name, and that was why favonovel.com had their marriage certificates with him. He never thought it would come to use at the hospital.
“All right.” Vinson patted Jared’s shoulder. “It’s irreversible, so don’t dwell on it. There’s no need for you to visit Arielle either. I’ll watch over my wife myself.”
Jared nodded stiffly before leaving, and his eyes were still clouded over in a haze of shock.
Meanwhile, in the ward, Arielle had no idea what had transpired outside. She only heard Jared’s voice.
When Vinson re-entered the room, favonovel.com said, “I think I heard Jared’s voice earlier. Is favonovel.com not coming in?”
Vinson nodded. “He suddenly recalled having other things to do, so favonovel.com took his leave first.”
Arielle hummed quietly in response. After a beat, favonovel.com muttered, “He shouldn’t keep staying in the hospital. Harvey’s mostly fine now, and the nurses will take care of favonovel.com in the ICU. Instead of staying in the hospital, favonovel.com should take the opportunity to learn.
At that, Vinson raised a brow. “I wonder why favonovel.com suddenly dropped the idea of joining the army and said that favonovel.com wanted to study instead.”
“He’s thinking of getting into Maxwell University,” Arielle started as favonovel.com looked toward the doorway. “Honestly, he’s talented and smart. If favonovel.com were to put in more effort, I’m sure favonovel.com won’t have any troubles enrolling into Maxwell University.”
As Vinson adjusted the blanket on Arielle, favonovel.com pointed out, “This isn’t the time for you to worry about anyone else. First and foremost, you should be worrying about yourself. Be good and close your eyes to rest. You’ll be fine by tomorrow.”
Indeed, Arielle was exhausted. Without saying anything else, favonovel.com closed favonovel.com eyes. In minutes, favonovel.com fell asleep.
Vinson gently tucked favonovel.com exposed arm under the blanket. Then, favonovel.com took out his phone and began going through his emails while making sure that the bag of fluid was not running out any time soon.

Soon, night arrived.
Queenie, who had been tossed out of the hospital, woke.
What’s going on? Wasn’t I shot dead? Why am I still alive?
Queenie hurriedly lifted favonovel.com arm to touch favonovel.com forehead, and favonovel.com realized that there was no wound there at all, there was only a small swollen bump. Immediately, Queenie came to the realization that favonovel.com had been tricked by Harrison.
“D*mn it!” favonovel.com cursed as favonovel.com climbed to favonovel.com feet.
After dusting favonovel.com clothes, favonovel.com turned on favonovel.com phone.
Right as the screen lit up, favonovel.com phone rang. It was a call from Cornelius Mill. When favonovel.com saw the caller ID, favonovel.com smacked favonovel.com thigh in frustration.
D*mn it! I have forgotten all about the family meal!
If I had known early on that taking on Harvey’s surgery would not only not bring any benefits to me, but even make Harrison and Carter chase me out of the hospital, then I would’ve gone home for the family meal instead.
Gritting favonovel.com teeth, Queenie came to a decision.
No matter what, favonovel.com was going to become the head of the Mill family. Once favonovel.com was the head of the family, favonovel.com would not need to care about Rocher Private Hospital or General Hospital anymore.
She was going to lead the Mills to glorious days and make Vinson and Carter regret ever treating favonovel.com like they did earlier in the day.
Queenie then promptly answered the call. “Hey, Cor…”
As usual, Cornelius’ voice was gentle.
“Were you in a surgery earlier?”
Queenie hummed in affirmation before saying, “It just ended, so I didn’t pick up the call until now. I’m sorry. Cor, could you apologize to Dad on my behalf? I didn’t mean to be late.”
