Chapter 1483
I didn''t expect that as soon as I switch the camera on, I would be met with a face so unfamiliar. Darn it.
It just seems that I can''t keep it hidden anymore."

At around this time, Fiore was busy taking care of Jared in his ward. As Mr. Johnston Sr. walked in,
he saw what she was doing, and was stunned by the sight in front of him.
Mr. Johnston Sr. was puzzled. ''So that was why he hasn''t been contacting me as of recent. I knew he
had a girlfriend, which is why he doesn''te home often.’
Initially, Mr. Johnston Sr. had received some really bad news, and had been meaning to tell Jared
about it, but much to his chagrin, Max had been dissuading him. Now, Mr. Johnston Sr. might be old but
he was vignt enough to notice that something was wrong.
And when he made it a point to find out, he discovered that Jared was injured and had been
hospitalized for several days. ''How dare they keep it from me’?’
This was why Mr. Johnston Sr. had rushed to the hospital to pay both Jared and Nicole a visit.
However, what he did not expect was that a strange woman would be taking care of his grandson the
moment he entered the door.
"Where''s Nicole? Where is she?" he asked, for he had something urgent to ask Nicole.
Fiore had met Mr. Johnston Sr. before at a certain banquet, and as such, she was overjoyed when
she saw the elderly man strolling in through the door of the ward. However, she had not expected him
to ask her about Nicole as soon as he walked in, and because of that, a sour look appeared on her
face at once.
"I didn''t know that Nicole is so significant to Mr. Johnston Sr. that he asked for her as soon as he
barged in through those doors,’ she thought.
Fiore lifted her head while maintaining a smile on her face as she greeted, "Hello, Mr. Johnston Sr.
I''m Fiore Fisher.
It was only then that it dawned upon Mr. Johnston Sr. that the person in front of him was somewhat
familiar.
‘The Fisher family. In the most recent years, they have be one of the biggest and most influential
families in the United States. They''ve been catching up with us, especially the head of the Fisher
family. He cherishes his one and only granddaughter, who is very well known in San Joto. She was one
of those who were rmended to us when Jared was looking for a potential partner in marriage. But
what puzzles me is that, how did they be so close? And why is Nicole not around to take care of
him when he had an ident...,, Mr. Johnston Sr. thought curiously.
"Ms. Fisher, you''re being too polite. I didn''t expect you to have such a good rtionship with my
grandson,” Mr. Johnston Sr. nodded and replied in a low voice.
Fiore knew that he was testing her, and thus, she thought long and hard before she took the
opportunity to say, “Yes... I have known Jared for a long time now. He got himself hurt because of
Nicole. No one is around to take care of him, so I came here..."
With that said, she had made it clear to Mr. Johnston Sr. that they had known each other for a long
time. In addition, it was an opportunity for her toin about Nicole for not being here for Jared
during such a crucial period.
Nicole, who was watching from the security camera, could not help but raise her eyebrows. ‘1 should
not take this woman lightly.
She actually had the nerve to disrupt my rtionship with Mr. Johnston Sr.’
As Mr. Johnston Sr. walked in hurriedly in his search for Nicole, his actions confirmed Fiore''s
inexplicable guess.
Mr. Johnston ignored Fiore''s words as he knew Nicole had deep feelings for his grandson. He also
knew that Nicole was a person of special significance, and so, her absence meant that she had
important matters to attend to.
‘So, is it possible that the news from this morning is true?’ Mr. Johnston Sr. thought to himself.
He had mixed feelings, being somewhat relieved while feeling that things could get reallyplicated.
‘It can''t be happy too early or things will take a different turn. I don''t know if it''s a blessing or a curse.
The person might just share Nicole''s surname for all I know,’ Mr. Johnston Sr. thought, feeling a little
uneasy about Nicole''s absence.
“Get someone to check on Nicole''s whereabouts right away, and see if she''s in Lanningbourg," he
ordered.
Nicole heard Mr. Johnston Sr.''s words clearly from the security cameras. '' He actually knew the
coordinates in Lanningbourg.''
Indeed, her suspicions were confirmed. The Johnston family were also one of the families affiliated to
the Reby Family Crest, as well as the Holy Alliance.
