Chapter 1483
'1 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, Fiorella 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't come 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 vigilant 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.
Fiorella 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.
'1 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.
Fiorella lifted her head while maintaining a smile on her face as she greeted, "Hello, Mr. Johnston Sr. I'm Fiorella Fisher.
It was only then that it dawned upon Mr. Johnston Sr. that the person in front of him was somewhat familiar.
'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 really complicated.
'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.
