Victoria noticed that Carl and Arnold couldn't get along, so she planned to use this opportunity to reconcile them. She decided to send Carl to the airport to pick up Arnold.
Carl, lounging with disdain, crossed his legs and said, "Do I have to go personally to pick up someone like Arnold? I'm not going."
Victoria said, "...Okay, then I'll go."
After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave.
Carl's eyelids twitched, and he quickly got up and grabbed her, "I'll go! Victoria, you have to stay here and watch my brother!"
Victoria patted his shoulder with relief, "Good, I was waiting for you to say that."
Carl was dumbfounded.
He muttered to himself, feeling like he had fallen into a trap.
Carl drove to the airport to pick up Arnold, while Victoria waited in the ward.
Checking the time, she realized it was time to change the dressing on Jack's wound.
Victoria called the doctor.
After calling the doctor and changing the dressing, the doctor reassured her, "The wound is healing well, with no signs of infection. It seems you've been careful when cleaning him, not letting the wound touch water."
Victoria nodded, "Yes."
The doctor examined Jack's body again, explained some precautions, and then left the ward.
Victoria sat down on the stool in front of the hospital bed, held the man's pale and bony hand, sighed softly, and hooked her little finger around his finger, full of affection and nostalgia.
Almost half an hour passed. there was still no sign of Arnold.
However, the sound of their argument echoed from the corridor.
Fortunately, this was the hospital corridor, and there were no other patients on the entire eighth floor, so these two guys didn't disturb any patients.
Arnold walked into the ward and saw Jack lying unconscious on the bed. His azure eyes were filled with astonishment, "What's going on here?"
No wonder Carl brought him straight to the hospital after picking him up at the airport.
Arnold had been speculating on the way, wondering if Carl intentionally brought him to the hospital to confront him, pretending there was a patient. It turns out, there was a patient here.
Victoria briefly explained the incident with the fallen chandelier.
After hearing this, Arnold immediately stared nervously at Victoria. Fortunately, she wasn't injured.
Looking at the unconscious Jack, Arnold couldn't help but sigh, "Your childhood sweetheart is really good to you. He would rather get hurt himself than let you get hurt."
Victoria said nothing.
Carl interrupted, "Can't you change the way you address him?”
Isn't "husband" much better than "childhood sweetheart"?
Arnold casually waved his hand, "I'm used to it. By the way, when will he wake up? Did the doctor say anything?"
Victoria shook his head, "The doctor can't be sure now."
Arnold frowned, realizing the situation was more serious than he thought. The heavy object hit the back of his head, It was indeed not a small matter.
Looking at Victoria's expression, he was very worried. Jack was probably in a coma, and she was the one who was tormenting the most.
The three of them chatted for a while. Victoria pointed to the chair next to Arnold and asked, "You just said on the phone that Amelia wanted to secretly sell Montgomery Corporation's shares. Is this news true?"
Amelia wanted to use all kinds of schemes to drive her out of the Montgomery family and take over everything in the Montgomery family. Would she be willing to sell her shares in Montgomery Corporation?
