"I'm really sorry, Mr. Smith," Joe apologized again.
Sam looked at Yvonne so that she could decide what t o do.
Although Yvonne could not see him, her senses were acute. She could feel his gaze and what he meant so she nodded.
Sam understood what she meant so he said to Joe on the other end of the phone, "It's okay, I just didn't find the right time. Since Mr. Lancaster is doing his checkup, I'll call back later, bye!"
"Goodbye!" Joe quickly responded.
When the call ended, Joe looked at the phone screen that had returned to its main menu, puzzled.
He really could not understand Mr. Smith.
Mr. Smith and Mr. Lancaster were just business partners and they were not close at all. They also did not know each other in the past, but since madam’s accident, this person had started to pay attention to M r. Lancaster.
What was his intention?
After thinking for a while, Joe could not figure it out s o he stopped thinking about it and put the phone away before going to the neurosurgery department.
When he arrived at the department, Joe met Shane who was checking on Henry.
Shane glanced at him. "Why are you here?"
"I have something to report to Mr. Lancaster," Joe replied.
Shane pointed to the machine on the side. "Then you might have to wait for a while, Henry is still inside."
"It's okay, I'll just wait here." Joe nodded and walked t o the side to sit down and wait quietly.
After waiting for about half an hour, Shane finally opened the machine.
Henry came out in a hospital gown and his face was pale.
When Joe saw that, he took off a coat that was hanging on the shelf and put it over him. "Mr.
Lancaster, are you okay?"
Henry touched his forehead without answering.
Joe could tell that he was weak, so he led him to take a seat at the chair he used earlier. "Mr. Lancaster, Mr. Smith called earlier."
As he was rubbing his eyebrows, he suddenly paused and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing much, he heard that you were awake so he called to send you his regards," Joe replied.
Henry narrowed his eyes. "Did he send someone to follow me again?" "Uh... When you passed out, Mr. Smith was at the scene too so it’s probably normal if he sent someone t o inquire about you," Joe explained reluctantly.
However, he did not know why Mr. Smith was watching over Mr. Lancaster even before the incident.
At this time, Shane came over with an inspection report. "Henry, congratulations, you're all right here."
He pointed to his head.
Henry looked at him coldly and looked at the report he handed over.
After reading it, he then handed it to Joe who was standing beside him and left the department.
Joe and Shane looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders before following behind.
"Henry, won’t you give me an explanation?" Shane suddenly said when he was walking behind him.
Henry stopped. "Explain? What explanation do you need?"
"Of course it's about the blood clot in your brain. When did you hit your head?" Shane looked serious.
When Henry heard this question, his eyelids drooped and he said nothing.
Shane sighed, thinking that he would not answer, but he suddenly said, "On the snow mountain half a year ago."
"Snow mountain?" Shane was taken aback, then he suddenly remembered. "Was it the time when you and Yvonne fell down the snow mountain?"
Henry did not respond and continued to move forward.
Joe patted Shane on the shoulder. "Yes. In order to save his wife, Mr. Lancaster hit his back and head on a rock, but because his back injury was more serious a t the time, while his head was only diagnosed with a slight concussion, Mr. Lancaster only focused on recovering the injury on his back and ignored his head injury."
