Chapter 242
When Terrance arrived at the hospital, he saw Victoria waiting for him outside the
ward from far away. Seeing her rerninded him of the scene where their fingers
lingered earlier that day, and when he saw her gorgeous face again, he was shy.
Therefore, she noticed his blushing ears and cheeks when he approached her, but
she did not overthink it and just thought they were red because of the cold weather.
She approached him and gave him ric’s phone, wallet, and key card to the ward.
“These all belong to Mr. Cadogan.”
Not knowing what happened, he could only ept those items one by one, and by
the time her hands were empty, he suddenly realized what was going on. “Are you
leaving, Miss Selwyn?”
Victoria nodded. “Yes. Since you’re here, I have no point staying.”
“Huh?” Terrance instantly regretted how he rushed over so quickly. If ric woke up
and learned that she had left because he arrived, his boss would surely banish him
out of there.
At the thought of that, he tried to persuade her to stay. “Miss Selwyn, can’t you stay
a while longer? I’ve just arrived, so I don’t know much about Mr. Cadogan’s

condition. Why don’t you exin what’s going on in more detail? Or, how about
waiting for Mr. Cadogan to wake up before you leave?”

However, Victoria hade up with a solution to this. “Mr. Cadogan fainted
because of his gastritis. I’ve already administered him as an inpatient, so you only
need to find him a caretaker. He’s currently taking fluids, and there are two more
bottles left, so you need to head to the nurse’s station or ring the bell to call them.

over so they can change the IV bottles. That’s all there is. He must stay here and get
better.”
Frozen, Terrance was left standing there because she had effortlessly told him
everything he needed in one go. “Alright, then. I’ll be off now. Take good care of
him.” She gave him a pat on the back and left.
Knowing he could not stop her, he could only watch as her figure slowly
disappeared from his sight. Once he could no longer see her, he turned around and
entered the ward, but he instantly took a sharp breath once he was inside and saw
the others in the room.
I didn’t expect Miss Selwyn would ce Mr. Cadogan in a shared ward. He’s a
germaphobe, so how can he stand living with others? While thinking of that, he
rushed to the bed and felt instantly relieved after seeing ric was still asleep.
Thank goodness he’s still unconscious.

Chapter 242 A Victorious Glimmer in His Eyes
At first, Terrance wanted to transport ric to another ward while he was still
unconscious but noticed little fluid inside the IV drip, so he stayed and waited for
the nurse. Once the IV bottle was changed to a new one, he was about to leave.
when ric’s closed eyelids fluttered. Soon, he woke up.
When he opened his eyes, he happened to look into Terrance’s terrified ones. “M–Mr.
Cadogan, you’re awake!”
The eye contactsted for a moment before ric pursed his lips. “Where am I?”
Terrance answered honestly, “The hospital.”
Stunned, ric seemed to have remembered something and was quiet for a long
time before saying, “Help me up.”
He had no energy in his limbs, so Terrance obediently came over to help him sit up.
Then, he nced at Terrance and demanded, “Tell me the situation.”
Terrance did not need ric to remind him because he was about to inform him
anyway. “I’m still unsure about your overall health, but I know your gastritis has
rpsed, which is why you’re sent here. There are still a few IV drips you need to
take, so you have to stay in the hospital for a few days.”

ric frowned at the mention of staying at the hospital. “I’m not staying here.”
“Mr. Cadogan, hear me out. I think it’d be best if you do. If you think the environment
here isn’t favorable, I can help you to another ward in a better condition than this.
one.”
Once he finished, he noticed ric shooting daggers at him with his eyes. He
seemed to have lost his voice and whispered, “I know you think your condition
doesn’t matter, but you fainted before Miss Selwyn, so will you disregard her efforts
as well?”
The originally cold expression on ric’s face instantly changed after hearing that
me unconscious?”
It seemed like Terrance was startled by ric’s demeanor and stammered, “M–Miss
Selwyn.”
ric subconsciously asked, “She didn’t leave?” Also, I had deliberately demanded
that she leave, so when did she return?
Since Terrance was absent from the scene, he did not understand what happened
at the hotel. “What’s the matter, Mr. Cadogan?”

“Didn’t you bring me here?” questioned ric.

“No, it wasn’t me.” Terrance shook his head and exined, “Miss Selwyn used your
phone to call me and asked that Ie here.
ric was speechless. So, that’s what happened. But I saw her leave, so why did
she return? Why did she do that? As if he thought of something, he sat upright in
bed, asking, “Where is she?”
“Oh, she? She left after I arrived.” Terrance was unwilling to reveal that fact to ric,
but after thinking about it, he thought keeping a secret would end badly, so he
chose to be honest.
Indeed, once ric heard that, his expression immediately darkened. “Left the
hospital? Didn’t you stop her?”
“I can’t.” Terrance fidgeted with his fingers. “I don’t know her well, so how could I
stop her? Also, she’s been looking after you for a long while. She even helped your
pay the fees and administered you. So, she needs some rest.”
Once he was done, he noticed ric was silent, and his lips were pursed while he
bowed his head, lost in thought. After a while, ricy down and ordered, “Get this
thing out of me.”
Chapter 242 A Victorious Glimmer in His Eyes
Terrance realized he meant the needle and quickly rejected, “That can’t be done, Mr.
Cadogan. You still haven’t finished this bottle, and two more await you. Miss Selwyn
ordered me to watch you take them.”
“Oh, yeah?” ric grinned slightly. “So, are you going to do whatever she tells you?
Are you her assistant or mine?”
Terrance rebuked, “I’m just concerned for your health.”
“I don’t need your concern. I know my body well.” With that, he demanded, “Get me
discharged.”
Terrance did not budge.
“Excuse me?”
Terrance closed his eyes and pretended he did not hear anything. At this point,
ric could get anyone to do anything except him.
“Terrance Levane, do you still want your job?”
Terrance opened his eyes and angrily rebuked, “Mr. Cadogan, why don’t
you tell Miss
Selwyn you refuse to finish your IV drips and stay in the hospital instead? Do you

think Miss Selwyn’s the only person who can order you around?”

Once those words left his lips, he immediately thought of something, and his eyes lit
up instantly. That’s right. Only Miss Selwyn can order Mr. Cadogan around, so why
don’t I ask her for help?
“Hold on a minute while I call her.” The excited Terrance failed to notice the
victorious glimmer in ric’s eyes.
