Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 597

Chapter 601

She figured that with such an excuse, Hanson would definitely make her stay and talk in detail about what had happened.

As she had expected, the man finally looked up and was willing to give her a bit of attention. "Were you at the scene?" He sounded even grimmer than just now.

Kiki didn't notice it, though. She immediately replied with a nod, "Yeah. I was there the whole time." She just knew that Hanson would definitely get interested in this, and it turned out that she was right.

However, just when she was about to continue and tell him everything about the incident, she heard him say, "You don't have to come to the set anymore." How could such a dangerous person be around my wife? he thought.

Kiki was so astounded that her mouth gaped open for a while. Why is the result different from what I imagined? Perplexed, she asked, "President Luke, don't you want to know the ins and outs of what happened?"

Hanson had withdrawn his gaze at this moment. Taking Vania's hand, he replied in a voice full of sarcasm, "Do you think I can't find out what happened?"

Kiki couldn't say a word. Hanson was right; not only was he capable of finding out the ins and outs of the incident, but he might even be able to find out who the culprit was. However, she really didn't want to leave at this very moment—though it wasn't for Vania's sake but for Hanson's. She had previously said that she liked Vania, but that was merely an excuse she made up without thinking. "President, I know that you're wary of me, but please rest assured. I have nothing but admiration for Ms. Greyson, and I don't mean anything else." She defended herself as hard as she could, trying to reverse his image of her.

However, Hanson couldn't stand to listen to her explanation anymore. "Silence is required in the ward. I don't want to repeat the same thing." He was visibly angry.

Still, Kiki stood in place and refused to leave. "President, just let me stand here and watch over Ms. Greyson, okay? I'm not gonna say a word, so I absolutely won't break her rest."

"Do you want me to get you out of here myself?" Hanson's voice was icy, with a clear hint of impatience.

Just then, however, Vania's hand moved.

Hanson immediately shifted his attention to her. "Darling, are you awake?"

Hearing the familiar call, Vania slowly opened her eyes to see Hanson's worried expression, upon which she instantly felt much more reassured. She was awake during the whole course of today's incident. After moving her body a little bit, she asked, "Am I alright?"

Hanson nodded. "The doctor has done a full body checkup on you. There aren't any other issues, so you just have to keep your mind on recuperating."

Hanson nodded. "The doctor has done a full body checkup on you. There aren't any other issues, so you just have to keep your mind on recuperating."

Vania was relieved at once. Holding his hand in return, she looked at his nervous expression, saying, "Sorry that I made you worry."

"Don't say something like that. I'm your man," Hanson replied affectionately.

At this moment, Jennifer suddenly rushed over and interrupted their eye contact. "Oh, Director Greyson, you're awake at last! You scared the hell out of me," she said while clutching Vania's hand to her chest. She continued, "You have no idea. I was stunned when it happened, but I never thought you'd save me. Seriously, I have no idea how to thank you for this."

"It's nothing. You're a member of my cast, and I have the responsibility to ensure the safety of every actor," Vania said, comforting Jennifer. If it were someone else who was in danger, she would've saved them, too.

As she was overwhelmed with emotion, Jennifer instantly bent down and hugged Vania before snuggling up to the latter. "That's so kind of you! Sob…"
