Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1383 One Month Deadline

"I'm not going to the guest room," Gabriella said, trying to keep things simple. "There's nothing pressing for me right now. I'll just check into the hotel. Ms. Graham has already set it up. If anything comes up, just give me a call." "Alright, I'll have someone take you to the hotel," Dahlia said, signaling for two attendants to escort Gabriella. "Get some rest tonight. Tomorrow afternoon, if you can, could you come to my hospital to see another patient?" "The one still in a coma? Sure," Gabriella replied bluntly. "Mr. Clemens called me about it before. I didn't think he'd get worse."

"None of us did," Dahlia sighed. "And please, keep Mr. Clemens' condition confidential. If word gets out, it could be bad." "Don't worry, I get it," Gabriella said seriously. "If it leaks, not only is my career over, but my safety's at risk too!"

"Not even Ms. Graham can know," Andrew emphasized. "You can't tell anyone."

"Got it, I understand," Gabriella nodded. "I won't cause myself any trouble."

Dahlia cleared her throat. "I'll see you out."

"Okay," Gabriella nodded and quickly headed downstairs, eager to leave.

"To keep you safe in Newark, I'll assign two people to protect you until you leave," Andrew said, arranging for two bodyguards to follow her.

"Alright, I'll follow your arrangements," Gabriella replied. She knew the real reason was to keep an eye on her, but she didn't mind.

"Thank you, you've worked hard," Andrew said, giving her a salute before heading upstairs.

Dahlia saw Gabriella into the car, told the attendants to take good care of her, and then went back inside.

As she walked up the spiral staircase, a voice called from upstairs. "Dr. Rey!"

Dahlia looked up, surprised. "Ms. Graham, you're still awake?"

"I've been waiting for news about Mr. Clemens," Olivia said, stepping out of her room. "How is he? Has he woken up?"

"Not yet," Dahlia walked over and whispered, "He probably won't wake up until morning. After Dr. Perez's treatment, his condition is stable now, so you don't need to worry too much." "That's good," Olivia sighed in relief. "Can I go in and see him?"

"Sorry, Gabriella said not to disturb him before she left," Dahlia refused. "You should get some rest. We'll let you know when he wakes up."

"Alright," Olivia sighed, a bit disappointed, glancing at Micah's room. Four attendants stood outside, looking serious.

"Andrew is with Mr. Clemens," Dahlia reassured her. "I just saw Dr. Perez off and was about to go in and keep watch. Don't worry, he'll be fine."

"Okay," Olivia nodded. "I'll go rest now. Let me know when he wakes up."

"Got it," Dahlia nodded. She watched Olivia leave and then went to Micah's room.

Andrew had dismissed everyone and stood alone by the bed.

Dahlia whispered, "I'll watch him. You should get some sleep."

Andrew shook his head, his eyes red from stress and sleepless nights. "I can't sleep," he croaked. "Gabriella said this minor surgery will only stabilize him for a month. We have to replace Virgil within that time, or else..." Dahlia nodded, her expression serious but calm. "I understand, Andrew. But right now, we have no choice but to rely on Ms. James. She's the only one who can replace Virgil."
