The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 2181
"President Lane, I'm still in the hospital. Why are you so anxious to have me go back to work?" Nina's tone was complaining.
Her response made me feel more at ease. Being able to joke around meant that things were heading in a good direction. I smiled brightly. "I'm afraid you'll forget how to work after being idle for too long." Shannon embraced Nina, her expression happy. "How could that happen? Our Nina can multitask."
"The doctor said that I can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Give me another day off tomorrow, President Lane. I'll report on time the day after tomorrow." Nina saluted me.
There was light in her clear eyes. It would be unreasonable of me if I did not agree, so I nodded. "Okay, I'll give you another day."
"Thank you, President Lane. How has the company been doing recently? I heard that you participated in a brand conference. How did it go? Were you selected?"
"Although we weren't selected at the conference, Mr. Anders, the major shareholder of Firefly, was very optimistic about us and has decided to invest in us. I'll discuss this with him and finalize the decision this evening. If things go well, we'll be even busier in the future. We need to do a good job in this regard and mentally prepare ourselves," I said seriously as I looked at them.
I was hung up on the company's development more than anyone else. I also believed that the same was true for all our partners in the company. Both Shannon and Nina looked at me and nodded repeatedly. "We'll definitely work hard."
It felt like Nina's mind had gotten much clearer after what she had gone through. It looked like Jason had played an important role.
Just as I was thinking of him, he arrived.
He was not surprised to see us. He just nodded. "You guys are here."
"Thank you, Dr. Frost, for taking care of our Nina the past few days." Shannon winked as if she were implying something.
Jason remained serious. "It's nothing. It's a matter of duty."
"Don't you think our Nina is a good girl, Dr. Frost?"
"She is," Jason responded leisurely.
Just when Shannon was about to ask the next question, I interrupted her, "Dr. Frost, I'd like to speak with you."
Jason looked at me a little thoughtfully and then nodded. "Alright."
I left the ward with Jason. In the corridor, I asked him about Nina's situation. "Has Nina's symptoms improved?"
"I believe you've also seen it, Miss Lane. I think she's out of the woods."
His words reassured me completely. Now that I was relaxed, I tested Jason. "You should be

"I understand your concern, Miss Lane, but this shouldn't be rushed Miss Fameli still isn't stable. If she were to get triggered and fall into depression again, things would spiral out of control."
I also understood Jason's worry. "Okay, we'll see when you think is a good time to tell her, Dr. Frost."
"Don't worry, Miss Lane. I won't allow her to misunderstand."
"I trust you, Dr. Frost."
Jason took care of Nina out of professional ethics, not personal affection, which I believed Nina was also very clear about.
After all, their affections could only be kept a secret even if anything came to fruition.
