Without a moment's delay, Nicole forwarded the screenshot of the news article to Chloe. Kendrick's actions were indeed perplexing.
Logically, if a man of Kendrick's stature had romantic feelings for his secretary, they would have been an item long before now. Why did he choose to do this at such a crucial moment?
After all, Ryan had been dealt with by Colton earlier today. Could it be that the secretary is a key player in all this?
Chloe was swamped with work and had no time to even glance at her phone. Nicole, who was aware of this, didn't mind whether Chloe responded to her message or not.
She simply found the entire situation too coincidental and difficult to decipher.
Eventually, Nicole sent a message to Kendrick on her phone, expressing her desire to meet him and discuss the next course of action.
She assumed Kendrick would decline. After all, he was already in a relationship, and he would likely reject such a private meeting.
However, Kendrick's response was surprising. He promptly replied to her message.
Kendrick: Okay. You can choose the location.
Nicole clutched her phone tightly.
In the VIP ward of a local hospital.
Isaac was deep in slumber. He appeared to be in immense pain with his eyebrows knitted together as if he were trapped in a nightmare.
"No!"
Isaac abruptly opened his eyes and yelled.
He took deep, ragged breaths, his chest heaving rapidly, indicating the terror induced by the nightmare.
He instinctively looked around then. Is this...a hospital?
He suddenly noticed someone sprawled on his hospital bed.
"Roxanna?"
Isaac's voice was slightly hoarse. If he hadn't been so startled, he might not have been able to utter a word.
The woman was peacefully lying on the edge of the bed, seemingly content in her sleep. The blissful smile gracing her face was a stark contrast to his nightmare.
Why was she here?

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
