Chapter 492 Caught in the Act
After Colin finished his words, Abbot looked at him with a forced smile.
Colin slightly lifted his eyebrows and said, "You really don't wanna go there?"
Abbot replied, "Do you think I am that kind of flatterer?"
Colin said, "Yep."
Hearing that, Abbot felt speechless.
When Faye returned after seeing off Rebecca, it happened that Ethan and Abbot were about to leave.
Faye said with a smile, "Don't wanna stay a little longer?"
Abbot replied, "If I stay a little longer, I'm afraid that Colin will jump up from the sickbed and ask to be discharged."
Faye smiled and continued, "Then you two should drive carefully on the way."
With that, Faye followed the two toward the door.
Seeing this, Ethan stopped her and said, "You don't have to see us off. Take good care of Colin."
Faye stopped and said with a smile and a nod, "OK."
Although Ethan had said there was no need to see them off, Faye still watched them until they disappeared around the corner before returning to the ward.
As there were many people just now, Faye had no opportunity to say something affectionate to Colin.
Now that all the people had left, Faye walked to the sickbed, bent down to give Colin a kiss on his forehead, and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Colin smiled, reached out to hold Faye's waist, and said, "No, it doesn't hurt."
Faye said, "Your face was pale when you just came out of the operating theatre."
Colin said, "Were you frightened?"
Faye said honestly, "A little."
Looking at Colin's ruddy face, Faye suddenly understood a saying, "When you love someone, you get your armor, but also a weakness."
For the first time, Faye realized that she would feel the same pain even if the knife was not stabbed into her body.
In the meantime, Abbot and Ethan came out of the hospital and went straight to the parking lot.
As Ethan had something to do and had to go back to the office, she left after getting into the car.
Sitting in the car and smoking a cigarette, Abbot took out his phone and gave a call to Rebecca.
Probably because they had just met today, Rebecca thought it would be impolite not to answer the phone this time.
She answered the phone and said with a smile, "Mr. Carter."
Abbot asked, "Where are you?"
Rebecca replied, "I've returned to the company."
Abbot coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said, "I paid the expenses of the investment in later stages and endorsement of the resort for you. Shouldn't you give me an IOU?"
