Julian Lancaster felt rather helpless; he glanced at the ostentatious car, not expecting Nina Sinclair to be unlike typical women who would be overjoyed.
Just as he was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang, and he promptly swiped to answer it.
At the moment the call connected, the voice on the other end resonated through the car via Bluetooth.
"Hello, are you a friend of Marcus Walsh? He’s had a serious car accident and is currently in the hospital receiving emergency treatment. We couldn’t contact his family, but found your number on his phone. Can you come over now?" Follow current novels on NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt
Julian Lancaster furrowed his brow tightly.
He slowly decelerated and then parked the car by the roadside.
Julian Lancaster said in a deep voice, "He’s an orphan."
"Uh... he’s currently unconscious and needs surgery; we can’t find anyone to sign the consent form."
After hanging up the call, Nina Sinclair immediately asked, "What’s wrong? Did something happen?"
Julian Lancaster said with a grave expression, "Marcus Walsh had a car accident, I need to go to the hospital to check on him now."
"Then don’t delay. Go quickly."
Julian Lancaster immediately turned the car around and headed towards the hospital.
At this moment, a look of confusion surfaced in the depths of Nina Sinclair’s heart. Just now, in a moment of urgency, she didn’t think too much about it. But now, she realized something was amiss.
Why did Julian talk to her with such a matter-of-fact tone, as if she knew this person?
Nina Sinclair wondered if she had been too busy lately, suffered from some form of intermittent amnesia, and forgotten someone she knew.
She looked at Julian Lancaster, who was seriously driving, and thought it wasn’t a good time to ask him.
Perhaps she should ask Sharon Lancaster instead.
So, Nina Sinclair took out her phone and quietly sent a text to Sharon Lancaster.
Nina Sinclair: "Sharon, do you know someone named Marcus Walsh?"
It took about a few dozen seconds before Sharon’s message came back, with a sense of urgency in her words, "How did you know about this person? Why are you asking about him? Did something happen?"
Sharon almost jumped up from the sofa when she saw Nina Sinclair’s message.
Her brother had mentioned wanting to reveal his identity, but he never said it would be immediately!
Nina Sinclair asking about Marcus all of a sudden, does it mean she already knows her brother’s identity?
Nina Sinclair didn’t expect Sharon to be so agitated. Could it be that there really was something wrong with this person?
She replied, "Julian just got a call that this person was in a car accident. We’re rushing to the hospital now, but I don’t remember this person, so I wanted to ask if you know him."
Sharon: "Oh, I see. This person is my brother’s assistant. Which hospital is he in? I’ll head over too."
She was worried that once Nina saw Marcus, she’d recognize him as the person she thought of as ’President Lancaster,’ so she had to rush to the hospital to take a look.
Seeing how concerned Sharon was, Nina Sinclair sent her the hospital’s address.
After setting her phone down, she was still somewhat puzzled. Is Marcus really President Lancaster’s assistant?
In that case, it’s quite normal for Julian to be familiar with him since Julian is usually President Lancaster’s assistant, but in her memory, there was no such person at all.
After thinking for a while, she still couldn’t figure it out and simply chose to stop pondering over it.
Anyway, she’ll know when she sees Marcus later; perhaps she really did forget.
