Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1166
After talking about some trivial matters for another few minutes, Hendrick told Fabian he would be leaving. He thought of bringing Helen away with him, but Helen insisted on staying behind to keep her sister company. Thus, he caved in to his daughter’s request.
Since Jason had such a rare opportunity to improve his relationship with his godfather, he volunteered to send Hendrick home.
After Hendrick’s departure, Helen told Hannah, “Can I spend the night at your place?”
Hannah was stupefied because she had long moved out of her leased apartment and moved into Fabian’s place without telling anyone.
“What? Are you going to turn me down? Is it because you have moved into Fabian’s place?” Helen directed another question at Hannah since her sister hesitated.
Hannah was genuinely perplexed because of Helen’s question. She planned to make something up and send her sister home, but her sister’s speculation was spot on. I can’t possibly tell her she has hit the bullseye, can I?
“Huh? Are you serious? Have you acquired Dad and Mom’s consent beforehand?” Helen was shocked because her joke turned out to be the case.
“I-I’ll allow you to stay with us, but you’re not allowed to tell Dad and Mom!” After giving it a thought, Hannah decided to tell Helen the truth.
Her sister shook her head and suggested, “If that’s the case, let’s forget about it. Since we’re talking about Fabian’s place, I can’t possibly spend the night at his place when you’re not around. I’ll check myself into a nearby hotel.”
Suddenly, Fabian broke the silence and announced, “Don’t worry. I’ll arrange your accommodation for the night in a bit.”
Are you kidding me? How can I allow my sister-in-law to spend a night at the hotel when I own a freaking real estate company?
As Helen was afraid of troubling Fabian, she shrugged her shoulders and suggested, “Actually, can I stay here and keep Hannah company instead? I don’t really feel safe to entrust her to the nurses.”
“That won’t be necessary because I’ll be staying back for the night,” Fabian announced nonchalantly.
