The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 612

Jack Hughes leaned back on his hospital bed, a wry smile spreading across his face as he addressed his visitor. “Heard from Bryan you dropped by to see me?”

Emma nodded, concern etched on her face. “Yeah, how are you holding up?”

“I’m hanging in there. Should be out of here in a few days.”

“Why the rush? You should rest up a little longer, listen to the docs.”

“It doesn’t matter where I recuperate. I need to get back to Blue Club; a whole pile of mess is waiting for me there.”

Emma bit her lip, worry creasing her brow. “What exactly happened? Did you cross someone?”

Hughes let out a soft sigh, a hint of resignation in his voice. “To be honest, I haven't got a clue. I'm the kind of guy who keeps his nose clean, so why would I get mixed up in anything shady?”

Knowing Hughes was dodging the question, Emma couldn’t help but chuckle.

Caught off guard by her laughter, Hughes paused for a moment before speaking again. “Did Ms. Lauren call me up just to shoot the breeze?”

“What else?” Emma cleared her throat. “Actually, I do need your help with something…”

“Say no more. If it’s Emma Lauren asking, consider it done. What’s the deal? Even with this banged-up body of mine, I’d crawl over to help you out.”

“Can you crack a password? For a camera memory card.”

“That's it?”

“Yep, that’s it.”

“Piece of cake.” For Hughes, it was no big deal.
