Early the next morning, Josef persuaded Shirley to take some rest. She briefly considered entering the hospital to greet Zacharias, but given the complex circumstances, she opted to head home instead.
She went to Ava’s house to rest. She called Willow, who was currently abroad, selecting her wedding dress. Willow and Jasper had already: set out on a journey around the world. Shirley could finally relax knowing that Zacharias was under Josef’s care, and she enjoyed a good night’s sleep.
She stayed at Ava’s house for three days and planned to return to Flintstone Residence once Zacharias was discharged from the hospital.
However, the man hadn’t sent any messages during those three days. It wasn’t until the fourth day, at 6.00AM, that he finally messaged her. I’ll be discharged today. Please come over.”
She was surprised when she saw the time and. wondered why he was up so early. So, she replied, ‘I won’t go over. I’ll go directly to the Flintstone Residence.
‘No. You must come. Shirley hesitated, but before she could reply to Zacharias, he called her. She pondered why he was in such a hurry. She answered her phone and said, “Hello!”
“This is an order,” he stated firmly. Seeing his urgency, she reluctantly agreed, “Alright, I’ll come over immediately.”
“I want to see you before 8.00AM,” he demanded and hung up the phone. Shirley couldn’t help but wonder about Zacharias’ unwavering insistence. She mused, Why does he need to see me? If it’s about moving things, his bodyguards could easily handle his luggage and accompany him.
However, after three days of rest, she also felt the need to return to work. She got in her car and drove toward the hospital.
When she arrived, everything was already packed and ready on his side. He was sitting in the lounge, his posture suggesting that he was waiting for someone.
Shirley’s heart skipped a beat, and she hoped Zacharias wasn’t waiting for her. She couldn’t help but notice how much better he looked now, draped in a high-neck black woolen sweater that bestowed upon him an air of elegance and sensuality.
“You’re here,” he greeted with a nod. She reciprocated with a nod. Just then, Freddie entered and informed Zacharias, “They’ve arrived.”
Zacharias acknowledged with a smile, promptly entering the vehicle as Cole opened the door.
Shirley, still standing a couple of feet away from Cole, harbored a desire to explain herself. Yet, she was acutely aware of the gravity of the situation, which made it an inopportune moment for such a conversation.
Cole’s gaze remained fixed on her, betraying his curiosity. However, his unwavering professionalism restrained him from displaying any emotional reactions. He offered a slight nod to her and redirected his attention to their surroundings.
Inside the car, the two most important people in the country, Zacharias and Ren, were engrossed in a discussion of crucial matters.
Shirley, being mindful of not disrupting Cole’s work and not wanting to attract attention, chose to stand silently in a corner, quietly observing the unfolding events.
