Millionaire In Love With Me

She lay back in her seat and rested for a while longer before reaching for her phone and making a call to Jenny, “Mom, where are you guys now?”

“At X City Hospital.”

“The inpatient unit?”

“Yes, bed 2109 on the 21st floor of the inpatient unit.”

“Okay, I’ll be right there.”

Vivian hung up the phone and said to Morris, “Please go to X City Hospital.”

Her mother told her before that they were at the county hospital, but now they were in city hospital, which made it a lot closer.

He followed the navigation to X City Central Hospital and after parking the car, he and Vivian both went upstairs quickly.

All the way, the two were silent, like strangers.

It wasn’t until she entered the hospital wing that Vivian looked at Morris with a warning look, “Don’t talk nonsense in front of my parents.”

There were things that her parents might think if they found out.

So, it’s better to shut Morris up.

“Okay.”

Morris gave a perfunctory response and nothing more.

The two men stepped out of the lift, found ward 2109 and pushed the door in to meet the foster parents in the ward and Houghton lying in bed.

Vivian was so anxious that she immediately rushed forward, “Dad, Mom, how is my master?”

“He was pushed out from the resuscitation room not too long ago, and is lying down to rest.” Jenny stood in front of Vivian and sighed.

“Don’t worry, Houghton is lucky.” Tamsin comforted.

“Mr Mond, Mrs. Mond.” Morris greeted with a slight nod, “Sorry, I came in a hurry and didn’t buy any gifts.”

“It is okay that you accompanied Vivian to come back, otherwise if she came alone in this weather and the bad roads, it makes uneasy.” Jenny and Tamsin looked at each other and smiled.

Vivian didn’t care how well Morris got along with her parents, she was just preoccupied with worrying about Houghton lying unconscious in the hospital bed.

With gauze wrapped around his head, he was sleeping very quietly, without a single reaction, but it made Vivian sweat hard.

Walking over to the bedside, she sat in the chair and reached out to gently pat Houghton’s hand, “Houghton? Wake up, I’ve come to see you.”

Vivian whispered to Houghton and even took his hand, but Houghton didn’t even react a bit.

She was worried, “Mom, why isn’t he responding at all? What did the doctor say exactly?”

“The doctor said he had a fall and an intracranial haemorrhage, he has been operated on and is now just waiting for him to wake up.”

If it wasn’t a bit serious, it wouldn’t have required a transfer to X City Central Hospital.

“Ugh, how can someone who is usually so agile still be stupid enough to fall over.”

Vivian muttered with a ‘disgusted’ look on her face.

In truth, her heart ached.

Houghton was family to her.

She had grown up in Houghton’s house, the equivalent of his daughter, but now this had happened.

“Don’t worry too much, it’s going to be fine.”

Seeing that Vivian did not look too well, Morris immediately said a few words of comfort.

“Morris, sit down, you must be tired after driving all the way. By the way, have you had dinner? Shall we go and get you some food?”

Tamsin enquired.

They all knew the identity of Morris, after all, he was the son of the Cheal family, and although he treated Vivian very well and was her godbrother, at the end of the day he was a powerful man from a powerful family and they had to be careful in every way.

“I am not hungry.” Morris waved his hand and stood aside, gazing at Vivian who was holding Houghton’s hand tightly.

She was such a big-hearted girl, but when something happened, she looked like she was carrying a heavy load, which made his heart ache.

“I’m going out to make a phone call.”

Morris suddenly thought of something and turned to walk out of the ward.

After the ward door closed, Jenny immediately went to Vivian’s side and asked in a low voice, “Did Morris send you back?”

“Why didn’t you tell us? Your master is in hospital and it’s not good to let him come over.”

Tamsin followed suit.

Vivian turned around, and through the clear glass on the side of the ward door, she saw Morris standing in the doorway on the phone.

She shook her head, “Dad, Mom, it’s okay. It was Madame Cheal who asked him to drive me back, worried that it would be dangerous for me to drive alone. You don’t have to think too much about it.”

In the end, the couple were rural people who had been set up by the Lee couple several times and were very wary of the rich and powerful.

Be careful in every way, for fear of offending someone.

“How does Madame Cheal know that Houghton is ill?” Jenny was puzzled.

“He told her.” Vivian pointed at Morris, then looked down at the unconscious Houghton.

At an advanced age, his eyes were full of changes and his beard and hair had turned gray.

Vivian’s heart ached as her mind conjured up images of Houghton’s amiable appearance and the seriousness with which she was trained.

“Mom and Dad, you guys sit down. I’m going to check my master’s medical records.”

She got up and headed outside, wanting to go and question about her master more closely.

Her parents were from the countryside and not very well educated, so they couldn’t tell what the Master’s condition really was.

Walking out of the ward, just as she was heading towards the nurse’s station, Morris then called out to her, “I’ve already asked about your master’s condition, it’s an intracranial hemorrhage. I’ve asked … I have told Grandma about it and she’s arranged for a doctor to come over tomorrow to give your Master a full examination.”

Vivian took a step, “Thank you. I’ll give grandma a call.” She must say thank you to grandma.

“No need. It’s late and Grandma has just laid down to sleep.”

Morris stopped Vivian from calling Madame Cheal.

Vivian was too worried about Houghton, and her mind was full of Houghton’s current appearance, so she didn’t think much of it, “Alright then, I’ll thank grandma later.”

With those words, she turned once more to return to the ward.

In the evening, Mr. and Mrs. Mond were arranged by Morris to rest in a hotel next to the hospital, while he kept watch with Vivian in the ward, not leaving her every step.

“I’ll be fine here on my own, so you go and rest too.”

Vivian saw that Morris had been sitting on the sidelines, the mobile phone held in his hand vibrating constantly, very busy.

She guessed it must be his assistant who sent him the work stuff that made him so busy.

“Okay.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Morris answered, got up and walked out of the ward, closing the door behind him.

Vivian: “…”

He had really gone?

Although she was the one who told him to go and rest, when Morris did leave, it in turn made Vivian feel empty inside.

Sitting in the chair, looking at the still unconscious Houghton, she muttered, “At such an old age, why are you still as naughty as a child? I let you stay with my parents, but you had to stay by yourself. It’s a good thing someone found you unconscious, or the consequence will be unimaginable.”
