Chapter 81 She Valued Him

Chase wondered, How does Henry find out Avery was taken into the emergency room last night?

“If you’re asking, all I can say is Avery’s stable now. He will wake up today. But if you won’t let me call Ms. Quinn, then I’m sorry–I can’t take you to see Avery,” Chase said.

Henry sat there staring at Chase for a long time before finally getting up.

“Chase,” he said, “you’re so dull, no wonder Wendy doesn’t like you.”

But whether Wendy liked him or not didn’t matter at this point. At the very least, it was clear she no longer had feelings for Henry.

After Henry left, Chase immediately called Wendy. She was indeed in a meeting, but it wasn’t her secretary who answered the phone.

The secretary’s office had already received Wendy’s instructions. Whenever Chase called, no matter what she was doing–unless it was something that absolutely couldn’t be interrupted- they were to transfer the call to her directly.

That alone showed how much she valued Chase.

So the moment they got the call, it went straight to Wendy’s phone.

“Why are you calling me now?” Wendy asked.

Chase glanced at the door, making sure Henry had already left and wasn’t eavesdropping. Only then did he speak. “Henry came by just now.”

Wendy was reading documents, but upon hearing that her interest was piqued. She waved her hand to dismiss the people in front of her, swiveled her chair to face the window, and smiled.

“Let me guess,” she said. “Henry wanted to see Avery, right? And the fact that you’re calling me me. Did he tell you I asked him to go visit Avery?”

means his excuse was

Her guess was spot on.

“So I called to ask,” Chase replied. “Ms. Quinn, did you actually give him that order?”

Wendy said, “Let’s not even get into the fact that Avery’s signed with Lemon and has nothing to do with me. Even if I wanted to visit Avery, I could’ve told you directly. Why would I send Henry? Did you let him?”

As far as Henry knew, her relationship with Chase wasn’t that clear yet. Even if he had seen a pair of men’s slippers at her place, he probably just thought Chase was being clingy–he would never imagine it was Wendy who insisted on the relationship.

It was hard to tell whether Henry was just overconfident or if he really didn’t understand Wendy.

“Of course not,” Chase said. “I had Blanc and Neil stay with Avery the whole time. Henry didn’t get the chance.”

“That’s good,” Wendy said. “That nurse, Winnie, already confessed. She was paid off. But if Henry dared to make a move, he definitely covered his tracks. Waylon probably won’t be able to find. anything solid.”

“It’s fine. As long as we have a breakthrough, we’ve got a shot. Oh, and starting today, to prepare r the IPO, I’m going to review all past patient records from Cloud Hospital. Among them…”

He trailed off.

Wendy understood immediately.

Among those records would be her father’s. If there was going to be an investigation, it could start

with Chase.

All the planning they’d done for so many years was finally starting to show results. Now that Chase held the honorary chairman’s position, they finally had a chance.

Quinn Group had barely stayed afloat all these years thanks to Wendy and Mandy’s efforts. But now, it was time to strike back.

“You’ll definitely have people trying to interfere while you investigate those old cases,” Wendy said. “Don’t worry about any of it. If there’s trouble, push it all on me. Just focus on your part.”
