Unaware of the presence outside, Hailey, bending over the man in the hospital bed, asked, "Garett, what do you want to eat? I can make something at home."
Garett, who had just undergone major surgery, was pale and skinny, barely had the strength to talk. But when faced with Hailey, he murmured:
"Let Colter get it. You don't have to run back."
Hailey had been rushing between the hospital and home for some time and was already worn out.
As she swiftly wrung out a towel, she said, "You don't like the food here, I'll cook at home."
Garett tried to persuade her again but was cut off by Hailey's gentle words, "I'm just cooking a meal, it's not tiring. You can only have some light food now, it's a piece of cake to prepare."
Is cooking really not tiring?
Latonia watched Hailey. Was it because she had been cooking since she was a child that she didn't find it tiring?
Thinking of this, Latonia's face sank again. Why was she always putting herself in Hailey's shoes? This habit wasn't good, she needed to change!
Cedric saw Hailey was busy and didn't disturb her. He approached her after she had finished pouring water and came out.
"Hailey."
Seeing Cedric here, Hailey was taken aback. She stood there stunned for a while, then quickly lowered her head and walked away.
Seeing her ignoring him, Cedric hurried after her and stopped her.
"Hailey, I know about my mom contacting you behind the scenes."
Hailey had mentioned this to Eleanor, so it wasn't surprising that Cedric knew. But...
Hailey glanced at Latonia in the distance. Why was his mother here too?
As she was puzzled, Cedric turned around and pointed at Latonia.
"I brought my mom here today to apologize to you."
"Apologize?"
Would a high-class woman like Latonia apologize to her?
Hailey didn't believe it at all, but Cedric said, "My mom badmouthed you first, so she naturally owes you an apology."
After saying that, he turned his head and gestured to Latonia.
Latonia then reluctantly walked up to Hailey, "I was too harsh before, Ms. Vulpe, I hope you don't take it to heart."
Although she lowered her head, her tone and demeanor were still condescending. But Hailey didn't care, "It's okay."
After giving a casual reply, Hailey wanted to go back and cook.
