Chapter 521
Hayley nodded in agreement with Nero's plan.
That night after work, she bought a bouquet of carnations from the flower shop by the roadside and sped off to the hospital.
However, she was barred from entering the ward at the doorway as soon as she walked toward the ward.
"I'm sorry, Miss Stone, but you're not allowed to enter the room." There were two tall, strapping bodyguards standing guard by the door.
She secretly clenched her teeth, but the smile on her face remained as she put on a dutiful and gentle front. "I'm here to visit Old Master Sawyer. Could you please let him know that I'm here?"
"Old Master Sawyer has given instructions, and he doesn't want to see anyone from the Stone family."
The bodyguards did not relent.
Meanwhile, Hayley was distraught by that, and she did not believe that Old Master Sawyer would refuse to see her. So she reckoned that this must be Nicholas’ instructions.
So, she no longer kept up the pretense, and she yelled loudly in the direction of the room. "Old Master Sawyer, it's me. I'm Hayley! I'm here to see you, but the two bodyguards outside refuse to let me in."
Inside the room, Remus naturally heard Hayley's voice too.
However, he felt highly disappointed when he recalled how this woman spiked his medication.
So, Remus pretended not to hear a word as he had no intention of allowing her into his private ward.
Outside the ward, despite her yells, Remus steadfastly refused her entry.
Hayley was very annoyed by that, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Just as she was at a loss for what to do, she suddenly saw a familiar tall and imposing figure from the corner of her eyes and instantly revealed a coy smile.
It was Nicholas, and he'd just finished work, so he'd come over to visit Remus.
"Nicholas." Hayley kept her eyes on the man who walked elegantly in this direction, and her heart soared as she stepped forward to greet him.
However, Nicholas treated her as if she was invisible as he completely ignored her. He didn't even bother to cast his eyes on her as he headed straight toward the room.
When she noticed this, she was stunned in place as the smile on her face froze.
She abruptly turned around and watched as the man's figure disappeared near the ward's entrance. There was a significant reluctance to accept her situation in her gaze.
"Nicholas," She yelled out again as she raced after him.
The end result was that she was once again stopped at the door by the bodyguards. "Miss Stone, you're not allowed to enter the room."
Iler expression turned ugly upon seeing the bodyguards doing their duty with an air of indifference.
She had no choice but to retreat. Nonetheless, she focused intently on the tightly shut door while her mind was a rambled mess.
Even more so, she was much more affected upon recalling Nicholas's indifference and cold behavior toward her earlier on. She then realized that she could not allow the situation to persist and had to talk things through with Nicholas.
However, Nicholas was completely oblivious to all of her schemes.
Right now, he was seated in the room, and he was speaking with Tobias.
"I've contacted Ashton, so he'll be here to run some checks on you tomorrow. Once everything is fine, then you can get discharged."
Remus nodded. "Okay, I'll let you deal with all this accordingly."
Nicholas hummed in response, and then the two of them remained silent.
The entire room descended into silence, and there seemed to be a strange vibe in the air.
Meanwhile, Ian silently heaved a sigh as he looked at the duo, who were silent around each other. I wonder when Master Nicholas and Old Master Remus will be able to reconcile with each other?
Unfortunately, Nicholas was unaware of Ian's laments. So, he sat there for a while before taking his leave.
As soon as Remus saw that, he seemed to have something to say, but he kept, the words to himself and
