Chapter 1434 Awakened
Without a moment''s dy, Nicole forwarded the screenshot of the news article to Chloe. Kendrick''s
actions were indeed perplexing.
Logically, if a man of Kendrick''s stature had romantic feelings for his secretary, they would have been
an item long before now. Why did he choose to do this at such a crucial moment?
After all, Ryan had been dealt with by Colton earlier today. Could it be that the secretary is a key yer
in all this?
Chloe was swamped with work and had no time to even nce at her phone. Nicole, who was aware of
this, didn''t mind whether Chloe responded to her message or not.
She simply found the entire situation too coincidental and difficult to decipher.
Eventually, Nicole sent a message to Kendrick on her phone, expressing her desire to meet him and
discuss the next course of action.
She assumed Kendrick would decline. After all, he was already in a rtionship, and he would likely
reject such a private meeting.
However, Kendrick''s response was surprising. He promptly replied to her message.
Kendrick: Okay. You can choose the location.
Nicole clutched her phone tightly.
In the VIP ward of a local hospital.
Isaac was deep in slumber. He appeared to be in immense pain with his eyebrows knitted together as if
he were trapped in a nightmare.
"No!"
Isaac abruptly opened his eyes and yelled.
He took deep, ragged breaths, his chest heaving rapidly, indicating the terror induced by the nightmare.
He instinctively looked around then. Is this...a hospital?
He suddenly noticed someone sprawled on his hospital bed.
"Roxanna?"
Isaac''s voice was slightly hoarse. If he hadn''t been so startled, he might not have been able to utter a
word.
The woman was peacefully lying on the edge of the bed, seemingly content in her sleep. The blissful
smile gracing her face was a stark contrast to his nightmare.
Why was she here?
Isaac regained hisposure. Such a question abruptly crossed his mind, but soon, he pieced it
together.
This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
When he had fainted the previous day, Roxanna had appeared before him. He had even requested her
assistance in retrieving some documents.
The documents!
He quickly scanned the room and finally spotted the documents on the table next to him. Seeing that
they were untouched, he heaved a sigh of relief.
The task assigned to him by Colton was finally aplished. The next step involved their overseas
operations.
"Hmm."
The woman groaned and slowly sat up. She unconsciously stretched, and as she opened her eyes,
she found the man in front of her staring at her.
She froze in ce with her arm suspended mid-air. What should she do now?
How could she alleviate the current awkwardness? But it seemed that no matter what she did, she
couldn''t salvage the situation.
She confessed that she hadn''t intended to fall asleep on the bed the previous day. She was simply
exhausted.
Would Isaac ept her exnation?
She resignedly closed her eyes, bracing herself for Isaac''s reprimand.
"How did you know I was there yesterday?"
Isaac studied Roxanna for a while before slowly voicing his query.
Indeed, he had been pondering over this question. Could it be that Roxanna and Ryan shared some
sort of connection?
But as far as he was aware, Ryan was single. Could she be a secret girlfriend?
Isaac mulled over various possibilities, his expression growing increasingly grim. The only rtionship
between a man and a woman that needed to be concealed seemed to be ndestine lovers.
Roxanna was deep in thought. Wasn''t Isaac the one who had messaged me? Why is he questioning
me now?
Did he sustain a head injury when he fainted? However, she distinctly remembered that she had helped
Isaac up in time.
Before she could make sense of it, she looked up and found that Isaac now wore a terrifying
expression.
Did I do something to piss him off?
