One Night Stand With That Beggar

When the scene quieted down, Clint immediately took advantage of the moment and brought over the security personnel from the hospital to get rid of the reporters.

“Mr. Granger, are you alright?”

Clint asked.

Amos’s face didn’t change as he replied, “Does it look like there is anything wrong with me?”

“Of course not!” Clint shook his head.

He knew that Amos was most concerned about the fact that he was getting old. Therefore, he did not want to point that fact out at that moment.

However, Amos was still unhappy.

He pressed his lips tightly together for a while.

Then, he said, “Find out who Hogan Fisher is! How can such a person be qualified to be a reporter?”

“Okay!” Clint nodded.

Truth be told, Clint was thinking to himself that Amos was too protective of his family. The journalist was indeed a little annoying, and his words were unpleasant to the ear.

However, there were many entertainment journalists who talked the same way for the purpose of creating headlines that would attract public attention. Most people did not take it to heart, as at most they just got angry on the spot.

Hogan had probably thought that he would get a juicy headline from the interview but he had no idea that it would cost him his job!

Clint immediately went to deal with it, and Amos turned back. When he turned, he saw Nelson standing behind him. He frowned and said in a low voice.

He frowned and said in a low voice, “What are you doing here?”

Nelson came to his senses and replied, “Oh! I came out to see if there’s anything I can help with!”

“There’s no need!” Amos said icily, and walked back in!

Nelson pursed his lips and was about to follow him when Clint returned.

“Eh? Where’s President Granger?”

Nelson answered, “He went in.”

Clint nodded his head. He saw that Nelson had a depressed expression on his face and thought that Amos must have scolded him, therefore he comforted Nelson casually.

“President Granger is not as bad as you think he is. He is loyal and affectionate, definitely a person worth befriending.”

It was probably the first time in Nelson’s life that he had heard of Amos being loyal and affectionate!

The media always mentioned that Amos was merciless in the business industry, while gossip magazines would say that Amos was doted on his wife a lot. His subordinates would say that he was a far-sighted man.

However, no one had ever said that he was loyal and affectionate!

In particular, when he thought of what happened to Tiffany, he only felt irony in his heart.

As he thought about it, a cold smile appeared on his lips. He asked, “Is that so?”

Clint nodded but failed to notice Nelson’s expression. He seemed to be reminiscing about the past, and his voice was quite pious.

“Of course it’s true! I’ve known President Granger for decades. How could I not know? And Mr. Luther, you may not agree with what I’ve said, but look at yourself! Tiffany deceived the Granger family like that, but President Granger did not care about the past and sent you abroad to settle down!”

As soon as the topic was brought up, Nelson became even more furious.

However, with his current position, he could not get angry!

He merely snorted, “Then, I should thank President Granger!”

“You don’t believe me?” Clint was not stupid. Nelson’s sarcasm was so obvious that he couldn’t have missed it.

“It’s true. You were young at that time, so it’s possible that you don’t believe me! Tiffany did a lot of bad things when she was in the Granger family. In the end, she was sent to prison due to her own fault.”

“However, the Granger family never mistreated you! Later, you came back from abroad and lost contact with them. No one wanted those things to happen! President Granger had also sent people to search for you for a long time…”

However, as Clint spoke about the memories from the past, Nelson felt depressed in his heart.

Therefore, no matter what Clint said, he only felt irritation in his heart.

He was worried that he would lose his composure, therefore he interrupted Clint.

“That’s not what I meant! Of course, I believe what you’ve said!”

Clint nodded and added, “That’s good! Truth be told, President Granger has a sharp tongue but a soft heart! He said that he doesn’t like you now, but if Miss Naomi insists on being together with you, he’ll eventually compromise!”

Clint reached his hand out and patted Nelson’s shoulder after saying so.

“It’ll be fine!”

After Clint left, Nelson’s mobile phone rang. He answered the call.

Monique’s voice sounded, “What? You’re still in the hospital? You don’t want to come back?”

Nelson replied with his brows furrowed, “My personal hours will not affect my work, will it?”

“It won’t, but I’ve worked hard to connect you to them! Now that the most critical time has come, I’m afraid that you will have cold feet. If that’s the case, that wouldn’t be good!”

“No, I won’t do that!” Nelson said in a low voice.

“That’s good! As long as your mentality is firm, I won’t be worried. Then, you should stay in the hospital and accompany Naomi more! It’s your reward! When you’ve settled down after a few days, you can return to the company!”

After that, Monique hung up on the call.

Nelson stared at his phone in shock. For some reason, he felt that something was amiss.

However, before he could think it through, the voices of the two nurses sounded in front of him.

“The patient at bed number 75 suddenly has a high fever. Hurry up and call the attending doctor back.”

Bed number 75?

Nelson’s heart tightened as he called out, “Naomi!”

…

In the ward, the nurses surrounded the bed for an emergency treatment.

As soon as Nelson entered the door, he saw Eudora leaning on Amos’ shoulder, her eyes red and swollen. The entire situation made Nelson’s heart pound.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“How’s Naomi? Why has she suddenly contracted a high fever?”

Amos stayed quiet, but Eudora answered his question.

“The nurse said there might be complications…”

While they talked, the attending doctor entered from outside. The nurse immediately came over to drive them away, saying, “Family members, please wait outside. The doctor is going to examine her!”

“Naomi!” Nelson looked at Naomi’s face which was as pale as a ghost. He suddenly shouted, “Naomi, we’ve already agreed to get married! You can’t go back on your word!”

Such a love confession in the ward was incredibly touching.

When Eudora and Amos heard his words, they looked at Nelson, perhaps recalling their past selves.

The time that followed was extraordinarily long.

After an hour, the doctor came out tiredly.

“She has temporarily stabilized. The patient’s willpower is quite tenacious. It’s a blessing in disguise! She has stabilized and is awake now!”

“Yes!” Eudora was pleasantly surprised as she ran in.

When Nelson heard this, he hurriedly followed in as well.

In the ward, Eudora held Naomi’s hand.

“You scared your mother to death! Why didn’t you tell us that such a big incident happened?”

Naomi was still a little weak. When she heard his words, she said softly in Eudora’s arms like a spoiled child, “I’m sorry, Mom. I delayed your recovery!”

“You silly girl!” Eudora sighed as she replied, “Is my body or you more important?”

Naomi gave a sly smile as she said, “Mom’s health is most important!”

“Nonsense!” Eudora laughed.

Nelson saw the smile on Naomi’s face, and his mood gradually calmed down! Truth be told, Naomi had already spotted him earlier.

In her eyes, Nelson was her lover, a man bathed in golden light. How could she not spot him the moment he entered the room?
