"Mr. Hanover."
Juliette called out to Quill. Quill came back to his senses and looked at Juliette. Then, he fixed his gaze on Kimberly.
Seeing that Kimberly had changed into a new set of clothes, Quill felt relieved and looked away.
A moment later, he suddenly remembered something and looked at Juliette with a frown.
Juliette explained, "Miss Shell is worried about Miss Sylvia. So, she insisted on coming with me."
Hearing Juliette's explanation, Kimberly roughly understood the situation. Therefore, she stepped forward to speak for Juliette, "I insisted on coming here. How can I take a break while Sylvia is still in a critical situation? I'd rather come to the hospital."
Quill didn't say anything more, since Kimberly had insisted on coming to the hospital.
They waited in front of the emergency room for a long time. Juliette asked Kimberly to have a seat at the side, and Kimberly noticed that her legs were trembling violently as she tried to sit down. She didn't notice it while she was standing.
Seeing this, Juliette placed her hand on Kimberly's legs.
"Are you alright?"
Kimberly raised her head after hearing Juliette. She was obviously very concerned for Kimberly. She looked at Juliette and said, "I'm fine."
After waiting for a while, the door of the emergency room finally opened. Kimberly immediately stood up and rushed forward.
However, someone held her back instantly. Kimberly looked up and saw Quill looking at her calmly.
"Be careful," he said in a deep voice.
Kimberly nodded blankly.
"Are you the family members of the patient who tried to commit suicide?" The doctor came out and asked. Quill stepped forward, Kimberly following closely behind him.
"Yes, I am," Quill answered in his deep voice.
The doctor glanced at him and then at Kimberly. "The patient is no longer in a critical condition. Fortunately, the wound is not deep. The patient would've died if the wound were any deeper."
Although Kimberly was still frightened, she now had confirmation that Sylvia was fine.
Kimberly was relieved, and her body finally relaxed after being tensed up for so long. All of a sudden, her legs went weak and she started to collapse.
"Miss Shell!" Juliette exclaimed. Juliette happened to be standing behind Kimberly, and managed to catch her before she fell to the ground.
When Quill turned around, Kimberly had already fainted.
The doctor was shocked as well. He stepped forward and examined Kimberly. "She must have been too frightened. Let's carry her to the ward to get some rest. Her face is so pale."
Juliette nodded and was about to carry Kimberly to the ward, but Quill beat her to it. After talking to the doctor, he carried Kimberly in his arms. He turned to Juliette and said, "Please help me to deal with the admission process."
Seeing this, Juliette was stunned. After a while, she came back to her senses and said, "Okay, Mr. Hanover."
Juliette looked at Quill carrying Kimberly in his arms walking further and further away in confusion.
The way Quill treated Kimberly was beyond what any normal friend would do. However, the way he carried Kimberly in his arms wasn't out of any affection or chemistry. It looked like... an elder brother caring for his sister.
Could it be that Quill treated Kimberly as his younger sister because Kimberly and Sylvia were good friends?
Forget it. Why was she thinking about this now? Quill had always behaved according to his principles. He was very clear about what should be done and what shouldn't be. He didn't need his secretary to worry about him.
Thinking of this, Juliette hurried over to deal with the admission procedure for Sylvia.
George was frozen on the spot. He didn't know what he should do. He felt that he'd better follow Kimberly, since he came out with her together.
