Chapter 817


    The general ward was located in a separate building


    After stepping out of the elevator, Sylvia took a shortcut and went to the other building


    Just as she was about to cross through the park to the entrance of the building, she noticed two familiar figures approaching from another direction


    They were none other than Lily and Madam Springsteen, who had just confronted her yesterday.


    She hurriedly stopped and ducked behind a tree.


    Both Madam Springsteen and Lily were looking anxious.


    "Grandma, what if something happens to Odell?”


    “That won''t happen. | asked around and they said that he was transferred to the general wardst night. That must mean that he’s doing fine now.”


    They did not notice Sylvia at all and went into the building right away.


    Sylvia quietly followed them in only after they had entered


    She hid around the corner and noticed that they took the elevator to the sixth floor.


    It seemed like Odell was now staying in a ward on the sixth floor, and that he was no longer in a critical situation.


    She felt a weight lift off her heart.


    She turned around and walked out. She did not leave the hospital but hung around the vicinity of the park outside instead.


    She figured that she would wait for Lily and Madam Springsteen to leave first, then she would sneak into the ward to take a look


    at how things were going.


    She ended up waiting the better half of the day before Lily and Madam Springsteen finally emerged from the building.


    The park was only a short distance away from the entrance. The moment she saw them stepping past the entrance, she quickly


    ducked behind a tree with her back to them.


    They were having a conversation.


    "Grandma, let''s eat something and then get you home. You''ve seen how badly injured one of his hands is and he’s having


    trouble moving around. He’s going to have a lot of trouble just doing simple tasks. Even though there are nurses looking after


    him, I''d still like to stay by his side and keep himpany,” said Lily.


    Madam Springsteen smiled and said, “Alright, youe back here after we have dinner and bring him some food. This will be a


    good chance for you to bond with him.”


    They walked away as they talked.


    The frown on Sylvia’s face eased.


    It appeared to be that he had injured one of his hands quite severely, so he was probably going to need some time before he


    recovers.


    The tenseness that had been lingering in her body nearly all day finally subsided. With that, she promptly left the hospital after


    Madam Springsteen and Lily had gone.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Meanwhile, inside a private ward on the sixth floor of the hospital.


    The man himself was sitting on the bed, one of his hands was covered in bandages and he was holding a book with the other.


    His eyes darted out the door from time to time.


    After a while, he could wait no longer and asked, "Is she not here yet?"


    Cliff was standing by the door and whispered back to him, "No."


    Odell frowned harshly, "Did she not know that | got into a car ident?"


    Cliff observed the look on his face and answered back: “ording to Sebastian, the young miss called Miss Sylvia first thing in


    the morning when she found out that you got into an ident. | believe Miss Sylvia should be informed about your ident.”


    Odell''s face darkened.


    She knew that he was in a car ident and yet she had note to visit him!


    Hadn''t she sent him a text messagest night asking him to drive slower? Why was she not here yet?


    Was she not worried about him?


    The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy and oppressive


    Cliff shuddered and took a step back, then he probed cautiously, “ Master Carter, why don''t | go to Miss Sylvia and ask her toe to visit you?”


    Odell red at him, "Do | look like | need her sympathy?"


    Cliff zipped his lips shut, afraid to utter another word


    Internally, he muttered, ‘You were the one who created this ident to get Miss Syivia''s attention. Why are you getting angry at me?’


    The room was filled with silence.


    After a while, Odell suddenly broke the silence. “Assign two men to keep an eye on her, report to me what she''s getting up to at home.”


    He would excuse her if she did not visit because she was feeling unwell


    Or perhaps she was upied with some other matters... He would not mind if she cameter, as long as she showed up


    What if she never showed up, he would


    He closed his eyes and hissed sharply, "Go!"


    Cliff answered dutifully, "Yes, sir!”
