After arriving at the hospital, Stella pulled Hayden's hand to move to the inpatient department.
"Stella, slow down. My arm is going to be pulled off by you." Speechless, Hayden followed her out of the elevator. When she entered the ward and saw that Noah was lying on the ward bed, she only then believed that Stella was really not talking nonsense.
"What's wrong with Noah?"
There was no one else in the ward at this moment. Harrison was the only one sitting on the side.
When he saw Hayden, he was happy. He stood up immediately and asked despite knowing the answer, "Who are you?"
Hearing this, Hayden regained her presence of mind and quickly introduced herself, "I'm Hayden Downey and I'm the hotel manager of ST Hotel. My daughter and Noah are studying in the same school, you are?"
Her sentences were clearly organized and her tone was respectful in which this was the attitude that one should have when facing an elderly.
Also, her look had a few similarities with Noah's look. The more Harrison looked at her, the more he liked her. He glanced at Stella who was secretly pulling a face at the side, and spoke with a kind and friendly countenance.
"I'm Noah's great-grandfather."
"You're Director Beckham?" Hayden instantly stood straight, "I'm sorry for taking the liberty."
"It's okay."
Hayden let her sit down, "Have a seat. I've heard Noah mention you. He likes you very much. I still remember that you saved Noah once before."
Seeing that Harrison was not as harsh as what was rumored, Hayden heaved a sigh of relief, sat on a chair at the side and asked worriedly, "How did Noah get hurt?"
"I'm not sure about the specific situation. He was injured while he was with Joseph. Joseph says that Noah rolls down the stairs from the second floor. It's just shortly after surgery, and the doctor says that his right arm is fractured while his left hand is dislocated. His body also has a lot of wounds. Alas, Noah grows up without a mother to take care of and he suffers from one ailment or injury after another."
Upon hearing this, Hayden's heart ached at once.
Although she was not really close to Noah, he had similar age as Stella. She had a missing son who had the same age as him. When she saw Noah, she would always think of that child. She did not know if there was a mother around the child to accompany him. If not, the child's situation might be the same as Noah.
"Fortunately, kids can recover quickly. Since his bone has fractured, he should drink more soup made with snakehead for calcium."
Harrison showed an expression as if he was in a difficult position, "Is it? But because of this matter, Joseph has sacked all the maids in a fit of rage. I'm not confident about the maids nowadays as they're really not careful in their works."
"It's okay, I'm off at the weekend. I'll stew and bring it over."
"That's great, I'm sorry to trouble you, Ms. Downey."
"No problem, it's just a small matter" Hayden looked at the pale face on the ward bed, "I also feel like I have a special connection with Noah. So, it isn't a trouble for me to make him soup."
While talking, the door was opened by someone. Joseph and Viola walked in one after another.
When Joseph saw Hayden, his expression instantly changed.
"Why are you here?"
"I hear that Noah has injured, so I come to take a look."
"You hear?" Joseph was in a bad mood due to Noah's matter and when he heard her words now, his face darkened and he directly questioned, "It's two o'clock in the morning, how do you know that Noah has injured? The surgery has just ended about half an hour ago but you're already able to arrive at the hospital, what's your intention?"
