Chapter 874
Cordy actually wondered when she could let go of the past.
Soon, perhaps?
After sending off Patrick, she returned to the car Sean arranged for her and returned to Cranston Hall.
She didn’t bring Dicky along to the airport since she expected to head back soon after seeing Patrickoff, just as she did not want Dicky to have to keep running around with her.
She reclined against the backseat, looking up at the blue skies of the capital.
Her phone then rang, and she checked the caller before answering it.
“Have you sent off Patrick Stuart?” Sean asked casually.
“I just did. I’m on my way back now.”
“Actually, you should head to the hospital right now,” Sean suggested. “I’m rushing there right now-l justreleased
news that Grandpa regained consciousness.”
“Okay,” Cordy agreed.
“See you later.”
“Yeah.”
Hanging up, Cordy told the chauffeur, “The hospital, please.”
“Okay,” the chauffeur replied respectfully.
Most of the Cranstons had reached the hospital when Cordy did, and they were all standing outsideJesse’s ICU ward.
Sean had leaked the fake information that the doctors said Jesse regained some extent ofconsciousness; that although Jesse was not fully awake, current circumstances pointed to a fullrecovery in under a week.
Every member of the Cranston family rushed to the reached them, with Paul asking in agitation, “Can Igo in to see my father?”
“No,” the doctor said sternly. “He just regained some extent of consciousness, but allow him to rest afew days more before visiting him.”
“If that’s what you insist,” Paul did not push the issue. They were in the hospital, and therefore shouldlisten to the doctor’s orders.
As such, they all merely stayed outside for a while before leaving.
Cordy was naturally staying with Sean, but their expressions were somber.
They had been observing everyone seriously just now, but didn’t replace anyone suspicious-whoever theculprit was, he or she was very well hidden.
As they stepped out of the elevator, they ran into John and
Nana. This time, it wasn’t just the two; Jean also came, bringing the entire Lynd family with her.
Seeing Sean and Cordy, Jean quickly asked, “I just heard Jesse is waking up. Is that true? Is heconscious right now?”
“He’s not awake yet, ma’am,” Sean replied respectfully. “But the doctors are saying that he’s conscious,and that he’d be fully conscious in a week if this continues.”
“Oh, thank goodness,” Jean exclaimed excitedly. “I was saying that auspicious events would wash offany bad luck. I mean, see? Nana just confirmed her wedding date with Lucas, and Jesse is alreadyrecovering now. Who knows, he might actually wake up on their wedding day!”
Sean smiled faintly without agreeing, glancing at Cordy seemingly nonchalantly to replace her remainingindifferent; she didn’t even glance at John once.
On the other hand, John kept glancing at her a few times; ultimately, he said nothing.
“Are you leaving right now?” Jean asked, watching them.” You’re not staying with Jesse although he’sconscious?”
“The doctor told us not to disturb him for now, and to let him rest a few more days. He’s too weak at themoment, so we shouldn’t go in to see him,” Sean explained.
“I see.” Jean appeared a little disappointed. “It’s alright. I’ll just check on him from outside.”
As she spoke, she led her family into the elevator.
