Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1217
“Just go and get busy, Fabian. I’ll go to the hospital to visit Hannah,” Jason said to Fabian with a smile as soon as he had stepped out of the villa’s gate beyond the courtyard.
At that, surprised overwhelmed Fabian. Why is he acting so out of character today? Usually, he’s reluctant to spend even a single second in the hospital. He’s always grousing that Helen is a silly little girl who keeps bugging him, so why is he now volunteering to go to the hospital?
“Why, are you missing Helen because you haven’t argued with her for some time?” Fabian teased in a joking manner.
“Hah! Who’s missing that idiot?” Jason retorted huffily. “I’m missing Hannah!”
Upon hearing that, Fabian merely shook his head without saying anything further. Inwardly, however, he snickered, He’s missing Hannah? What a joke!
Subsequently, Jason slipped into the newest model of Camaro that Fabian had given him as a gift. Yet, there was no sound of an engine roaring to life even after an eternity had passed. It turned out that he was searching for information and video clips of Hannah’s charitable deed on the Internet. All those were his bargaining chips when negotiating with Helen, so he naturally couldn’t slip up.
In no time, he found plenty and saved them all into his cell phone. As he did so, his lips inexorably curved into a smirk, and he muttered to himself, “Hah, take this you damn girl! Show me some sincerity if you want the information. But if you aren’t interested… haha, I’m going to keep you hanging!”
As he luxuriated in his thoughts, he started the car and zoomed away with a whoosh.
Wishing to have Helen begging him as soon as possible, Jason sped the entire way, his speed even comparable to the speed of light. He ran several red lights successively without even batting an eyelash.
Naturally, his efforts paid off, for the trip that usually required twenty minutes took him less than half that time. When he arrived at the hospital, he headed straight for Hannah’s hospital room with a crafty smile on his face.
The moment he pushed open the door, he was assailed by a deafening shout. “Ahh!”
