Ben ended the call hastily and went over to greet Spencer.
“What is all this? Why didn’t you tell me about what’s going on?” Spencer glared at Ben.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Spencer.” Ben lowered his head guiltily. “Everything happened too quickly. Mr. Nacht’s condition is stable now, so we didn’t call you.”
“What do you mean by ‘stable’, huh? What’s the situation now?’
“He lost too much blood and he fainted. He already woke up in the morning. He’s just asleep now.”
“Let me see him,” Spencer said. His men pushed him toward the ward.
“Um, now might not be a good time, Mr. Spencer,” Ben said slowly.
“Why can’t I go in?” Spencer frowned.
Ben looked around and bent down to whisper in his ear. “Ms. Lindberg is inside.”
Spencer was taken aback when he heard that. He asked his subordinate to push him closer and he opened the door slightly.
When he saw the couple resting through the small crack, his expression became serious and he closed the door after that. He looked at the door for a bit and left quietly.
“What happened exactly? How did he get injured?” Spencer finally spoke when Ben was sending him off.
“Well…”
“I can see through all your lies, so you’d better tell me the truth,” Spencer warned, “I’ll get to the bottom of this if you keep it from me.”
Ben knew there was no getting away, so he gave an honest account of everything.
“Again?” Spencer was indignant. “These two are just not meant to be.”
“I’ve already sent some men to look into this. Don’t worry. You can’t blame Ms. Lindberg for this too. Mr. Nacht protected her because he wanted to. What matters most is now things are back to normal between the two of them,” Ben said carefully.
“It’s still too early to say if this is a good thing,” Spencer said with a sigh, “You take good care of him. Let me know if something happens.”
“Sure thing, Mr. Spencer.”
