    Even though her praises were subtle, Larry still felt ufortable hearing Joanpliment another


    man. Regardless, he knew it was not the time to get jealous, so he did not dwell on it. However, he


    repeated Cory’s name in his mind.

    After a while, Joan said to Larry, “I should call Mr. Jefferson now, shouldn’t I?”


    Larry nodded as he felt that the man’s checkup must bepleted by now. “Yes. Call him.”


    “Okay.” Joan then called the number Carl gave her.


    “Hello, Ms. Joan,” came Carl’s voice from the other end of the line.


    “Mr. Jefferson, how was your checkup? Are you okay?” Joan asked nervously.


    “I’m fine. Don’t worry, Ms. Joan. However, the doctor said that I have a minor fracture, so I’ll have to


    stay in the hospital for a few days,” Carl said with an intentionally light-hearted chuckle.


    “I’m d that you’re fine.”


    Joan was relieved upon hearing his words. “Mr. Jefferson, I’ll be visiting you in a bit. Which hospital are


    you in?”


    Joan found the need to visit him since he was in a hospital now. After all, she was the reason he was


    injured, and it was only polite of her to do so.


    “It’s okay, Ms. Joan. I’ve only suffered minor injuries. I won’t trouble you anymore. However, we won’t


    be able to discuss the contract for the time being.”


    On the other end of the line, Carl grinned slyly while speaking in a polite tone.


    Although Carl waspletely unscathed, he decided to stay in the hospital for a while longer. This


    way, he would be able to gain Joan’s sympathy, and the two would be closer. Moreover, he could


    avoid spinning tales just for the supposed contract.


    In his mind, Carl praised himself for his intellect.


    “That won’t do. You were hurt because of me, so it’s only right that Ie to visit you,” Joan insisted.


    “I’m really fine. Honestly, you don’t need to visit me. I know you’re busy. Besides, we’ll be able to meet


    once I’ve recovered.”


    The cunning man made it seem like they were actually close and that Joan wanted to meet him


    because she was truly cared about him and not only because he saved her.


    “No. Just tell me which hospital you’re in. I’m going to visit you now,” Joan hastily declined.


    “All right, then.”


    Carl sighed. “I’ve texted you the address. I’m sorry for troubling you.”


    “Okay. It’s only right for me to do this. Well then, Mr. Jefferson, I’ll end the call first,” Joan responded


    before ending the call.


    The moment she ended her call, Larry inquired, ”How was it?”


    “Mr. Jefferson said he has a minor fracture and has to stay in the hospital for a few days.”


    Raising her head, Joan then continued, “Dear, let’s visit him at the hospital. Otherwise, I’d be guilt-


    ridden.”


    Although she had promised Carl that she would visit, she still had to get Larry’s permission to do so.


    Nevertheless, she knew Larry would agree to it.


    As expected, he smiled and patted her head. “Silly girl, of course we have to visit him. Why would I say


    no? Let’s go right away.”


    Since both of them were not hungry, they decided to eat at a nearby restaurant after the hospital visit.


    Once they were ready, they headed to the hospital.


    After asking the receptionist in the hospital for “Cory Jefferson,” Joan went straight to his ward.


    Meanwhile, Larry headed in another direction. As “Cory” got injured from saving Joan, he had to pay for


    the man’s medical fees. Thus, he went to the payment counter instead.
