"Yes, it's been treated!" Gregory said to Angeline over the phone.
He glanced at Ned.
"Ned stayed in the hospital overnight so that they could keep him under observation. He will probably be discharged if his follow-up results are okay today."
"Will you delay your return to Cloudsville?"
Gregory had intentionally mentioned Ned, but Angeline clearly had no interest in the subject.
"Yes, I'll be returning the day after tomorrow. There are so many things to do in the lab. I can't leave it all to Reese."
"Alright! If you need anything, give me a call. I'm busy, so I'll talk to you next time."
When Ned heard that Angeline was about to hang up, he sat up straight. His mouth opened as if to say something. He looked at Gregory.
"Alright. Bye!"
Gregory avoided Ned's gaze as he hung up.
He frowned and said, "Look, Angeline simply doesn't want to hear about you. Forget it, Ned! You have a fiancée now. What would be the point of bothering Angeline again?"
Trevor stood in the doorway and knocked.
"Mr. Fletcher, Mr. Reilly heard you were admitted to the hospital and asked if we could recall all the prescriptions in time?"
"Mr. Marshall."
Trevor turned at the sound of the voice and saw Ingrid, who was covered up from head to toe. She was holding a thermos.
"Ms. Dalton! You're here to see Mr. Fletcher."
Trevor smiled and moved aside so that she could enter first.
Ned turned when he heard Ingrid's name. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the doorway.
"Ned, you're awake!"
