Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
Liam was afraid that changes might happen if they waited too long, so he already had the contract prepared.
However, Flossie said, “There’s no rush. We’ll discuss this when my husband wakes up.”
“What?”
Liam turned his back on Jerome South and faced Flossie, silently mouthing the question.
They had prepared so much for this very moment. Now that they had completed 99.9% of the process and were at the last 0.1%, she’s choosing to give up?
Did she have any idea what she was doing?!
Flossie paid Liam no heed.
She certainly knew what she was doing.
Giving up the chance to cooperate with South Group was tantamount to giving up the opportunity to help Azure Group immediately take flight.
But, right now… she simply could not take advantage of the situation. At least, until Halston woke she could not do it!
up,
Jerome South’s eyes went back and forth between Flossie and Liam, wondering what their relationship was.
They did not look like lovers.
But they seemed to be more than friends.
He then looked at Halston, who was currently lying unconscious in the ward…
Tsk, these three people have such a complicated relationship!
“Okay, then let’s wait until Halston wakes up. Anyway, like I said, you will be the one to decide who South Group will cooperate with, Miss Ellsworth.”
Jerome South then left.
Liam could not find it in himself to blame Flossie. He believed that Flossie must have her own reasons for doing so.
Azure Group belonged to Flossie anyway. He was just an employee. He would do as the boss said.
Liam had to leave because he had some business to take care of.
Therefore, Flossie was the only one left at the ward.
The doctor soon brought the examination report to Flossie for a detailed discussion.
“Mrs. Guajardo, Mr. Guajardo’s life is no longer in danger, but the black silver-ring snake has a unique venom that will take several days to completely cleanse away.”
The doctor pushed his glasses and said mysteriously, “In the meantime, Mr. Guajardo will be in an unusual condition. I just want to tell you about it now so that you won’t be too worried…
Flossie frowned and asked the doctor nervously, “Please tell me.”
“Because the snake venom is too strong and can disrupt the victim’s central nervous system, Mr. Guajardo may experience symptoms of quadriplegia for the next few days. In other words, he won’t be able to move. You and Mr. Guajardo should not panic if that happens. He’s not paralyzed for life. He’ll be fine once the snake venom is cleansed.”
“Quadriplegia?”
While Flossie was still digesting that word, a loud noise came from the ward.
“Get out! Get out! Don’t touch me!”
Halston had come to. His angry voice was loud enough for the entire floor to hear him.
Flossie and the doctor hurried over.
They saw several young nurses standing at the door of the ward, all of them afraid to go in.
“What’s the matter with you people? The patient’s awake. Why aren’t you taking care of him? Don’t you want to work here anymore?”
The doctor said with a serious expression.
The person lying inside was Halston Guajardo, the CEO of H Group! If they offended him, the hospital might be in trouble!
The head nurse trembled and said, “Director, it’s not that we don’t want to take care of him, it’s just that Mr. Guajardo… Mr. Guajardo lost his temper and wouldn’t let us touch him. He said who dares to touch him will die. We don’t want to offend him.”
anyone
“But…”
The director was in a bit of a dilemma.
He had long heard that Halston Guajardo was a difficult person to deal with, but he had no idea he was this difficult.
Flossie frowned and said, “Let me go take a look.”
She gently opened the door and went in. Halston yelled again.
“Didn’t you hear me? I said get out!”
it to wake un
Rence walked to Halston’s bed and joked.
Only then did Halston realize that the person who came in was Rence.
“It’s you…”
His fierce expression softened slightly, but he still looked really upset. “You get out too!”
From the moment he woke up just now, he had tried his hardest to sit up, but his body would not move at all. He could not even move his fingers.
He had no choice but to accept the cruel reality that he was paralyzed now.
Think about how proud of a person Halston was. He did not want anyone to see him in such a state!
Flossie did not get out. Not only that, she even pulled a chair up and sat beside Halston’s bed. She observed him like she was observing an endangered animal.
In the past, this guy was always the one who suppressed others with his strong aura. To see him in this condition was actually… pretty cute.
He was like a lion that was caught and tamed, or a tiger that had been exiled from its territory. It could only roar but lacked the strength to do anything.
“You’re a man. Why are you taking it out on those young women? What did they do to you?”
Halston’s expression was cold and proud. “How dare they take off my clothes. They must have a death wish!”
Not only did they take off his clothes, they even touched his body.
Halston really hated being touched by women. If it weren’t for his inability to move, he would have done more than just shout at them.
“Ahem!”
Flossie covered her mouth to hide her smile. She tried her best to look like a loving mother lecturing a child. She said, “You’re a patient. You should listen to the nurses and cooperate with them. They just wanted to give you medicine…”
“Besides, you have such a nice body. So what if they touch you for a bit? It’s not like you’re losing anything. Why are you so stingy?”
Halston glared at her.
The meaning behind that glare was: I dare you to keep talking nonsense.
Flossie obediently covered her mouth and shut up.
If she continued to tease him, she might get assassinated!
After a long time, Halston’s voice asked in a heavy tone, “I’m paralyzed, aren’t I?“
Seeing his look of despair, Flossie felt like laughing, although she knew it was terrible thing to do.
Hahaha! Every dog has its day. It was rare to see the cold and arrogant iceberg wither like this. How could she easily let the chance go?
Flossie lowered her eyes and tried to put on a serious expression. “Yes. Accidents happen, you know. Life is full of ups and downs. That’s life.”
Halston closed his eyes and said, “Get out. I want to be alone.”
