Chapter 683: I Won’t Do It

Fiona Linton didn’t want to hear him ramble on, so she immediately held up a hand to cut him off. "You work like a robot. It’s obvious you’re single. Forget it, forget it. I’m not asking you. It’d be pointless anyway."

Dylan Finch’s expression stiffened. He slowly lowered his hand, composed himself, and then knocked on the door to the hospital room.

As Dylan Finch delivered his report, Chloe Reed sat nearby, listening in. It quickly became clear to her that even though Walker Grant couldn’t see, he still had a lot to deal with.

Walker Grant said, "Why don’t you ask Doctor Linton?"

"Mm."
