Chapter 1430
"Miss Fisher, there's something you may not know, so I have called you to tell you about it. It is something that you should know."
Fiorella was left confused after hearing what Martin had just said, 'What is it that I should know, and what is it that I shouldn't? What is he talking about?'
"Listen, Mr. Wyance. I don't know what you've been reading as of recent, but I would appreciate if you don't speak in riddles. Don't beat around the bush. Just tell me directly if you have anything to say," Fiorella calmly said.
"Well, as you're no stranger to US, I'll just tell you about it right away."
"Ok?"
"Mr. Johnston has been hospitalized after suffering some critical injuries," Martin explained, after which he paused, intent on hearing what Fiorella had to say.
"Critical injuries?!' Fiorella leaped up from her chair the instant she heard that Jared had been hospitalized.
"What happened?! Which hospital is Jared in now?! Tell me. I'll head there right away." Fiorella anxiously queried.
"Don't worry, Mr. Johnston is in my hospital," Martin replied.
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Fiorella hung up and hurried out of the office.
As soon as she had exited the room, she ran into her assistant, who said, ’ There's a contract I need you to look into, Miss Fisher."
"Put it on my desk. There's someplace I need to be."
After giving her assistant that curt reply, she hurried into the elevator, prompting her assistant to look at her with brows furrowed. Where is she going, and why is she in such a hurry?'
Fiorella arrived at the hospital in less than ten minutes. She followed the location that Martin had sent her, and in no time, she found Jared's ward, which was situated in a private floor. However, before she could enter, one of the bodyguards stopped her at the door.
"You're not allowed in there."
"I'm Fiorella Fisher."
"I said, no one is allowed inside."
"You!"
Martin, who had heard the commotion outside, hurried over and pushed the door open.
"Let her in. I was the one who asked her to come," Martin said to the bodyguard.
On any other day, Fiorella would have flown off the handle and taught the bodyguards a lesson for addressing her the way they did, but her grievances were secondary, as she then rushed in after Martin had opened the door for her.
Fiorella was instantly met with the sight of Jared lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by life support machines and a multitude of other medical equipment.
