Chapter 269 Goes to the Hospital for Identification
"Mr. Roberts, is Grandpa still mad at me?" Holly bit her lip, looking pitiful.
Austin from the CEO's office smiled and said, "Mr. Vanderbilt cares about you the most. With time, he will understand your intentions."
"Alright." Holly's face showed disappointment.
Once she left the building and got into the car, Holly's expression turned dark. "Jade, did you find out where Grandpa went?"
"He went to a meeting," Jade reassured her. "Ms. Vanderbilt, don't worry. Once Stella treats Mr. Vanderbilt, he'll realize that Stella's skills are average and understand that you're the one who truly cares."
"Let's hope so." Holly sighed deeply. "Grandpa is always too strict with me."
Holly didn't even know why she was so agitated.
Maybe it was because the medicine wasn't enough lately, and the Vanderbilt Family still hadn't formally adopted her, only provided support.
Thinking of this, Holly became anxious and made a call overseas.
On the other side, Alexander and Terry had switched cars midway.
They were very discreet, not attracting anyone's attention.
They took the highway from the suburbs, heading south!
At this moment, Adeline had just finished surgery and was about to put things down to wash her hands.
Just then, Lorenzo groggily opened his eyes, grabbing her protective suit as if he didn't want her to leave.
Lorenzo, with his military background, had a strong resistance to drugs.
He seemed to recognize her, his thin lips moving slightly.
Adeline couldn't hear what he was saying. Seeing his tense state, she stood by his side for a few minutes.
After Lorenzo fell into a deep sleep, she asked the nurse to transfer him to a ward.
The nurse found it curious. "Your friend is very alert. He needed more anesthesia than others. He probably knows you saved him, which is why he kept holding onto you. It seems he really trusts you."
Adeline smiled without saying anything. A life-and-death friendship naturally built trust.
She turned and went to the cleaning and disinfection room.
The nurse responsible for transferring Lorenzo paused, looking at the closed-eyed Lorenzo and then at Adeline, who was cleaning up the blood.
Was it an illusion? Why did she feel these two looked a bit alike?
Although one was male and the other female, Lorenzo did resemble Adeline from the side when his eyes were closed.
After tidying up, Adeline left the operating room and went straight to find Charles.
She hadn't forgotten the purpose of her visit to Eastgate Towns.
She had something to ask Jessica and Leroy.
When Charles saw her come out, he first handed her a cup of tea and then gave her a key. "They are in the temporary special interrogation room on the left."
"Good." Adeline smiled, feeling warm all over with the tea in her hand. "Did you have some?"
Patrick spoke up at this moment, "Mr. Livingston only had it made for you!"
Charles glanced at Patrick, this time without warning him, but rather very gently and elegantly.
Patrick instantly understood Charles' meaning. "Mr. Livingston also had food prepared for you, but it's not convenient to eat here!"
Adeline raised an eyebrow and looked at Charles. "After I finish questioning, shall we eat together?"
"Sure." Charles smiled, looking very gentle, making it hard for anyone to resist.
Many patients and nurses were watching them.
After all, such a person was very rare in a place like this.
With him guarding outside, Adeline felt more at ease asking questions.
She had just pushed the door open and walked in.
Jessica, who was squatting inside, immediately stood up, glaring at her with fierce eyes!
