Chapter 776
Hendrix smiled apologetically at her. "| need to work and Mom''s not feeling all that well. So, we can''t go with you. Anne, you''re
still young; you not only have to read books, but you''d also need to see the outside world. Thus, we''ve entrusted your travel
responsibilities to Mr. Saunders."
Anne probably had no idea what Hendrix''s big speech was about. Still, she nodded obediently. "Okay!"This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.
| looked at Hendrix and thought what a cunning, old fox he was!
After we had our breakfast, Hendrix sat on the sofa in the living room leisurely and seemingly not in a hurry to leave.
| asked Fiona to watch over Anne as | prepared to leave. | turned to look at Hendrix. "You''re not going to the office?"
He raised his eyebrows, "I''m waiting for you!"
| was stunned. "I''m not going to the Roberts Group."
He nodded and walked towards me, "I know. I''ll take you to the hospital, then I''ll head to the office."
"But | can drive on my own. It''s not far either!" "It''s snowing heavily. It''s not safe!"
Since he was so determined on sending me there, who was | to refuse?
| nodded, epting his gesture and letting him be.
We soon arrived at the hospital.
He parked the car by the hospital building and took some tonics out of the carpartment.
| didn''t expect to see these, so | asked, "When did you prepare them?"
He smiled and said, "Evan prepared themst night. Let''s go!"
It seemed like he was going up with me.
After a slight hesitation, | followed him. | couldn''t help but feel touched by his simple action. He was really meticulous, which
made me look sort of dumb.
The anesthetic had worn off six hours after Valerie came out of the operating room.
She still had to rest for a few days due to the surgical wound on her abdomen.
After taking care of her for the entire night, Pedro, who was seated on a chair, looked drowsy and kept nodding off.
Valerieid on the hospital bed, seemingly deep in thought as she stared up at the ceiling above her.
Hearing our movements in the ward, she looked over and was startled to see us.
She raised her hand and gave Pedro a few pats. Then, she said to us with a smile, "You''re here!"
Pedro immediately woke up and straightened his back, looking slightly surprised as well to see us. He then got up, looking a little
dazed. When he regained his senses, he said, "It''s snowing heavily. Why are you here? It''s freezing outside!"
Hendrix smiled and ced the tonic he had brought over on the hospital desk. "It''s snowing, but it''s not that cold."
After a pause, he looked around the ward before his gaze fell on Pedro, who seemed to have fallen partially asleep again. "Mr.
Moore, have you guys had breakfast?"
Pedro nodded, but then shook his head and answered drowsily, "Not yet!"
He sighed to himself. "I''m getting old, so | get tired easily."

Pedro froze for a moment before turning to look at me, as if he was seeking my opinion.
My lips parted and | said firmly, "You should head back. I''ll stay here with Hendrix."
