Chapter 556 How Can You Put Up With It?

Joan didn’t know Alex, but he had seen her photos before.

“Joan?” Alex called out.

Joan turned, holding a folder. “Who are you?” she asked.

Stepping forward, Alex introduced himself. I’m Alex Price, a friend of Evan’s. I’m also the one who

asked for your help designing clothing for Paige.”

Recognition dawned on Joan. “Oh, it’s you! Why did you call out to me?”

Alex asked. “Are you here to see Evan?

Joan swung her folder. “I want to discuss some details of a new sketch with him. We need to be careful

when producing a model..”

“Evan’s not here. Have you tried calling him? Alex asked.

Joan smiled. Would you believe me if I told you I don’t have his contact details?”

Alex was shocked but realized he could use this opportunity to meet Paige.

“If you trust me enough to share the details. I’ll pass them along since they’re together,” Alex

suggested.

Joan was taken aback. “Isn’t Evan with my apprentice…”

“Did you not hear about Caroline’s hospitalization?” Alex was surprised Joan was unaware. “It was in

“Hospitalized? Which hospital? How did it happen? Is she okay now?” Joan asked.

Alex answered her questions one by one.

Joan’s expression relaxed thanks to Alex’s answers. “Ah, that’s a relief. She has many people with her,

Alex marveled at Joan’s carefree mentoring style.

She handed the design sketch to Alex. Please inform her and give me your number so I can text you

the

details.”

“Sure,” Alex replied.

Later that evening, Alex arrived in Staten City’s Fawn County and headed to the hospital. He called

Evan.

Evan answered with a slightly hoarse voice. “What’s up?”

Walking toward the inpatient department, Alex replied, “Evan, what’s Caroline’s room number?”

“Are you here?” Evan asked.

“Yes, I ran into Joan, and she gave me a design sketch to discuss with you and Paige.”

Evan teased, “Can’t you just admit you came to see Paige?”

Alex chuckled. “I’m already here, so just tell me the room number.”

Evan provided the room number, and Alex swiftly reached the fifth floor.

Paige was

Paige was nowhere to be found, only Evan reading and Caroline sleeping

Feeling disappointed, Alex refrained from immediately asking about Paige. “How’s Caroline?”

Evan remarked, “You visit empty–handed? Shameless.”

Embarrassed, Alex glanced at the sleeping Caroline. I’ll bring it later.”

Alex took a seat beside Evan and noticed the room’s simplicity. “This room doesn’t match your

standards. How can you stand it?”

Knowing Evan’s penchant for neatness, Alex was surprised he could tolerate an ordinary room.

Evan shot him a look. “Would you leave if Paige were here right now?”

Alex was rendered speechless and stayed for a while, but Paige didn’t return.

“Where’s Paige? Where did she go?” he finally asked.

The door opened, and Paige entered, visibly surprised to see Alex. She was carrying soup
