Chapter 1052


    "Mr.Johnston, it is Mr.Henry who had ordered us to protect Mr.Johnston Sr." Jared nodded gently.


    "Have you noticed anything unusualtely?"


    "No.Only Miss Riddle and Mr.Ellison of the Ellison Group came over as of recent."


    "Mr.Ellison?" Jared frowned.


    "You mean, Harvey Ellison?"


    "Yes '''' Jared gasped and sighed, annoyed with Harvey, who he thought was adept at exploiting the


    tiniest of opportunities to make his advances on Nicole while he was away.Then, he strode over and


    sat down at the bedside, looking at Mr.Johnston Sr"s face as he slumbered.


    "Grandpa, why haven''t you woken up yet?"


    All of a sudden, something miraculous transpired.Perhaps it was the medication or perhaps,


    Mr.Johnston Sr.had heard Jared''s voice.


    Whatever the cause was, the old man''s fingers began twitching.


    us saw that and eximed, "He is moving!"


    With his eyes widened, Jared whirled around and stared at us.


    "What did you say?"


    "Mr.Johnston!"


    us pointed at the hand of the elderly Johnston.


    "I swear, I just saw a jerk on Mr.Johnston Sr"s fingers!"


    Jared centered his gaze on his grandfather''s hand at once.Then, he held it up and called out,


    "Grandpa, if you can hear me, just move your fingers!"


    After a long pause, Mr.Johnston Sr"s fingers twitched again, and this time, Jared saw it for himself.


    "Grandpa, you can hear me, can''t you?"


    Jared clutched his grandfather''s hand in excitement as a smile crossed his face.


    "us, get the doctor here right away!"


    us dashed out of the ward at an instant, and in less than a minute, he reappeared, bringing a doctor


    and a nurse with him.


    "Mr.Johnston?"иσν???вσσк.￠σмthe doctor asked.


    "Doctor, I just saw a jerk on my grandpa''s finger!"Jared yelled.

    "Can you please check up on him!?"


    The doctor smiled and nodded upon hearing the news, and proceeded to say, "This is a good sign, but


    don''t get too excited just yet.Let me examine him right away."


    Nodding his head, Jared sat in silence as the doctor and the nurse approached his grandfather to


    proceed with the examination process.


    It was then that Nicole and Harvey returned to the hospital after their lunch in the Blue Whale.


    The second they opened the door to the ward, her eyes met Jared''s, and she stared at him as her


    heart skipped a beat.


    "Why didn''t you tell me earlier so that I could give you a ride from the airport?"


    Nicole asked and walked over to Jared, lowering her voice as she noticed the two medical staffs


    performing the examination.


    Jared''s grin faded as soon as he saw Harvey behind Nicole.


    Looking at her, he asked, ''''So, you came here together?"


    Sensing Jared''s displeasure, Nicole nced over her shoulder and gave Harvey a nervous look before


    turning to Jared again.


    "He is visiting Mr.Johnston Sr., and I just happened to meet him at the door."


    Jared refused to utter a response forting to her exnation.


    Instead, he fixed his eyes on Harvey''s hands, expecting to see a bouquet of flowers or a gift of some


    sort.


    Harvey, who seemed to know what Jared was thinking, then said, "Oh no, I forgot I''ve brought the


    greens.They''re still in the car.I''ll head downstairs and get it."


    With Harvey out of the ward, Nicole changed the subject at once and asked the doctor, "Is the patient


    doing any better today?"


    The doctor nodded.


    "I have checked.The patient seems to be improving.Perhaps what Mr.Johnston saw was an indicator of


    what''s toe."


    Nicole looked at Jared.


    "What did you see?" Jared smiled.


    ''"I just saw Grandpa''s fingers move."
