Her assistant kept her head low as she reported, "Ms. Zimmer is in the hospital."
Caspian dashed out of his office without a hint of hesitation.
"Caspian, Ms. Zimmer does not wish for you to visit her at the hospital!" The assistant shouted.
It managed to stop the man in his tracks as he put on a helpless look.
What should I do? He wanted to see the woman badly to see how she was doing. However, she was reluctant to even see him.
Larry was at a loss as he looked at Caspian.
"Don't worry, I'll go take a look," He patted lightly on Caspian's shoulders as an attempt to reassure
him before leaving.
In the hospital, Jessica was laying on the bed with her eyes closed. She seemed tired.
"What happened?" Larry looked at the assistant perched by the entrance of her ward and asked.
"Lisa gave Ms. Zimmer a slap across the face. She fell to the floor and fainted," the assistant replied.
Lisa came looking for Jessica, again?That doesn't sound right. Caspian hasn't been seeing Jessica lately.lt seems like this young lady is not going to let Jessica off the hook that easily.
"Get more people to guard her ward. Do not let any unauthorized personnel enter," Larry ordered. He was trying to protect Jessica from getting hurt further.
"Larry, you're here," Jessica greeted him as she noticed him standing by the door.
"Yeah. How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?"
"Don't worry, I'm alright. I just fell down, it's nothing serious. Don't I look alright to you?" Jessica gave him a smile.
