Chapter 592 The Visit
Natalie was like, "Heather, they're just shutting people up. I feel so freaking helpless for the first time."
Heather tried to soothe her, "Natalie, I get it. Ages ago, when I started working, my boyfriend ditched me for my cousin. Felt like a bad joke."
Heather went on, "Natalie, just chill. This shall pass as well. You've already survived the public drama. This Friday, you're shooting a new movie. Let's focus on our careers! Who needs men? Jerks aren't worth it!"
"Yeah, you're right," Natalie echoed softly.
After hanging up, Heather let out a big sigh. She opened her laptop and scrolled through some videos and pics of Alice. She couldn't help but think, 'Is Adrian blind? Even after knowing Alice's private life is a mess, he still backs her.'
Around 10 AM, Heather got a call from an unknown number. "Hello?"
Julian, a buddy of Yancy's, said, "Hey, is this Heather?"
Heather replied, "Yeah, who's this?"
Julian said, "I'm a friend of Yancy's. He got hurt. Can you come over?"
"He got hurt?" Heather shot up from her seat.
At the hospital, Yancy had just been moved out of the ICU. After four hours of emergency surgery last night, he was finally stable.
Julian and a few friends were hanging around outside, all looking relieved.
Julian told his friends, "Blue Bar's gonna be closed for a week for renovations. Levi, you handle it. Also, take care of the employees who got hurt last night. We'll cover all the costs and give them some extra cash."
Levi nodded. "Got it, Julian."
"Julian, who were those guys in black?" A friend asked.
Julian shrugged. He had no clue.
The attackers came ready to rumble, no questions asked. They were probably after Yancy.
But Julian had no idea if Yancy had pissed someone off recently.
It was a huge mess.
Julian lit a cigarette. "I'll stay here with Yancy. You guys have been up all day. Go home."
The friends didn't want to leave; they wanted to stick around until Yancy woke up.
Julian smiled. "Go home, take a shower, and get some sleep. Even if you weren't hurt, you got into a fight last night. You probably have some bruises. Take care of yourself and come back tonight to relieve me."
The guys said, "Alright, Julian, we'll head out first. Call us when Yancy wakes up."
People were bustling in the hospital hallway.
The hospital was always packed.
Heather stepped out of the elevator and walked to the nurse's station. "Excuse me, where's the guy you admitted last night? Blonde, tall, skinny."
The nurse asked, "Who are you to him? Family?"
Heather replied, "A friend."
The nurse said, "He was in bad shape last night, lost a lot of blood. Luckily, the knife missed any vital organs. He's out of the ICU now, in room 12."
Heather thanked the nurse and scuttered to room 12. At the door, she saw a young guy squatting, a cigarette in his mouth. A passing nurse reminded him that smoking wasn't allowed, and he quickly apologized and put it out.
Heather had seen this guy a few times before. He worked at Blue Bar and was tight with Yancy, but she didn't know his name.
