Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 487

Howard rushed to the hospital early in the morning. When he pushed open the door of the ward, Jimmy was nowhere to be seen.

"Hey, you!" Howard called a nurse who just came out of the ward round and asked, "Where's the patient in this room?"

The young nurse was in charge of the VIP wards on this floor. Since the patients on this floor were all important figures, the nurses were more concerned about it. "Dr. Perkins, the patient in this room was discharged this morning. I thought you know that since you two are friends..."

Howard was speechless for a while. When Jimmy was sent to the hospital, he was the one who organized everything, so naturally, everyone knew that they were friends. Yet, upon being discharged, Jimmy wasn't bothered to inform him, thus making him a little awkward now.

"Ahem. Of course, I know. I just forgot it because I was too busy."

After saying that, Howard turned around and left. As he walked, he picked up his phone to call Jimmy, but no one answered it.

Right now, Jimmy didn't want to talk to Howard, so seeing Howard's call coming, he just ignored it.

Coming out of the hospital this morning, he wanted to go find Ariah and talk to her. But when he recalled what Director Sherlock had said to him the other day, he decided to suppress his impulse.

It wasn't the time to get in touch with Ariah yet. It would be good for her if he acted distantly now.

As for those misunderstandings, he would explain them in the future. Besides, Ariah was probably angry still, so she might not believe him even if he brought the recording to her.

Ah, he should have just asked Anna to do the examination so that he could prove his innocence with the medical record. This way, Ariah should believe that he didn't touch Anna last night...

Once arriving home, Jimmy unwrapped the gauze on his head and took a shower.

After that, he made a call to Ben while heading to the police department, but Ben didn't answer his phone.

Jimmy frowned as it was the first time that Ben didn't pick up his call.

Arriving at the police department, Jimmy went straight to his office and pressed the private line. When the secretary came in, without looking up, he said, "Tell Ben and David to come over. There is a case that I want them to report on."

"Captain Hudson, they went out early in the morning already," replied the secretary.

Even though Jimmy had been promoted as deputy director a year ago, his colleagues were used to calling him Captain Hudson, which he didn't mind about.

Hearing the secretary's reply, Jimmy frowned. "Both of them went out?"

"Yes."

"For a new case?"

"Well, I'm not sure about this, but I heard Lenny said that Director Sherlock also looked for them this morning."

"Is that so?" Gradually, Jimmy was getting suspicious because both Ben and Edward were his men, and Director Sherlock wouldn't just bypass him and go straight to look for them.

"Alright, when they are back, tell them to come and see me."

"Sure."

The secretary then left.

Jimmy pondered for a while, then went back to work. But suddenly, he thought of something and raised his head.

Quickly, he pushed his chair back and walked out with large strides. He was in such a hurry that he bumped into people along the way.

Seeing him losing his composure like this, his colleagues called out to him puzzledly, "Captain Hudson?"

But Jimmy acted as if he didn't hear him and went straight to the office of Director Sherlock. Just as he was about to enter the office, Secretary Cornell immediately stopped him. "Deputy Director Hudson, why are you here?"
