Let Me Stay The Night

Christina could not comment on Bailey’s statement, as she did not know the whole story.

Feeling sorry for Bailey, she hugged her and gently comforted her, “Bailey, let’s go to the hospital to take care of your wounds first. We’ll talk about this later, okay?”

Bailey buried her face in Christina’s arms as she sobbed.

Sebastian glanced at the two women through the rearview mirror before averting his gaze. He avoided cavesdropping on their conversation and looking at them. He kept his eyes on the road and focused on driving to the nearest hospital.

He chose a hospital that the Hadley family invested in and purposely parked the car in the underground parking. Several doctors and nurses, who had received an order from the higher management, had been waiting for them. They rushed to the car and hurried to help Bailey onto a stretcher before using the elevator to the consultation room.

The entire floor had been cleared in advance.

Christina sat on a bench in the hallway, anxiously awaiting the results of Bailey’s checkup. Nathaniel’s bloodied blazer was draped over her shoulders. Occasionally, she would look up at the closed doors of the consultation room.

She had sent several messages to Nathaniel but did not receive any immediate replies.

She was deeply concerned about Nathaniel’s and Bailey’s situations.

“Mrs. Hadley, it’ll be a while before Ms. Cook’s checkup is complete. You must’ve been frightened. Why don’t I have you registered so you can get a full-body checkup as well?” Sebastian suggested.

Christina shook her head. “I’m fine. The blood on me isn’t mine. Bailey’s emotions are unstable. I’m worried about leaving her alone. It’s better if I wait for her to come out. Mr. Taggart, I can’t reach Nathaniel. How are things at his side?”

Sebastian was also clueless. After all, Nathaniel would usually reply to Christina’s messages first before he replied to others.

“Mrs. Hadley, please don’t worry. There is no problem that Mr. Hadley cannot solve. No one would dare to assume airs in front of him either.” Sebastian chose his words carefully to reassure Christina.
