“It’s nothing, I’ll be home in a few days.”
Jennifer had a bacterial infection caused by the aftereffect of some medication.
The results for the test Jennifer had were good, but she was required to stay in the hospital for a couple of days.
“I’ll make an appointment for you to have a body check-up,” said Kathy.
“Thank you for doing this, Kathy,” smiled Jennifer.
“You’re my mother, it’s my responsibility to take care of you,” said Kathy.
“I thought you were still angry at me.”
“I am,” said Kathy.
“I’m thankful that you are willing to visit me,” sighed Jennifer.
Billy Hilton met Bertie outside the ward. He wasn’t pleased to see him.
“Why is an outsider here?”
“I was one of the people that sent Mrs. Hilton here when she fainted,” said Bertie.
Kathy met Billy when she left the ward.
“How’s mom’s condition?”
“Don’t worry, she’s fine,” said Kathy.
Kathy left after she spoke to Billy.
“I’ll send you back to school,” said Bertie.
“Kathy, can I have a word with you?” asked Billy.
He didn’t want Bertie to be there.
“I’ll take a cab,” said Kathy.
“It’s okay, I’ll wait for you.”
“The school is not far from here.”
Kathy didn’t intend to wait for Billy as she has nothing to say to him.
Bertie was waiting for Kathy inside his car.
Kathy ignored Bertie and entered a cab. As she returned, she searched for the latest news on Joseph’s Group.
There was nothing.
The stock price of Joseph’s Group was lower than it was before.
She couldn’t stop thinking about Joseph.
…
Three days later, at Joseph’s Group.
Joseph cancelled the meeting of the shareholders.
“I’ll be in charge of the meeting if Joseph is absent today,” said Julian.
John switched on the television which had the latest news on the broadcast.
Three new drugs developed by the Joseph’s Group were released for sale. The stock price of Joseph’s Group had increased as the news spread.
“Mr. Joseph wanted to observe the sales of the new drugs for a week before calling the meeting of the shareholders.”
