In the past few days, under Eleanor Sterling’s watch, Alaric Faulkner hasn’t moved recklessly, and his injuries have healed well.
The wound is already healing, and it won’t be long before he is fully recovered and discharged.
Actually, Eleanor Sterling isn’t coming to the hospital every day just for Alaric Faulkner.
What she really wants is to wait for Jasper Faulkner.
But unfortunately, these few days, Jasper Faulkner hasn’t appeared at all, and her patience is wearing thin.
Alaric Faulkner saw Eleanor Sterling in a daze and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Eleanor Sterling said, "You’ve been hospitalized for so long, why hasn’t Jasper come to see you?"
As soon as the words fell, Alaric Faulkner’s face darkened.
This woman was lost in thought in front of him, thinking about another man? And it was his own brother!
Alaric Faulkner said coldly, "I don’t let him come."
Eleanor Sterling frowned, "Why."
Alaric Faulkner’s smile was as cold as it could be, "Because he’s about to be transferred to the Africa branch."
Outside the door, Elijah Hayes couldn’t help but shudder at the conversation he overheard between the two.
Jasper really didn’t know what he had done to provoke Alaric Faulkner, to be sent to such a place.
Africa was crowded enough, and Jasper Faulkner, a vice president, scrapping for food with the other assistants sent over there, it was just too pitiful.
Catching the strange tone in Alaric Faulkner’s voice, Eleanor Sterling said speechlessly, "Are you this harsh on your own brother?"
Is this something a human would do?
"Do you feel sorry for him?" President Faulkner’s face darkened a bit more, and he was already considering packing Jasper off that very night.
Eleanor Sterling finally understood, he was actually jealous of his own brother.
She rolled her eyes speechlessly, "Are you sick?"
Alaric Faulkner’s wolf-like sharp eyes locked onto Eleanor Sterling, and foreseeing his next move, Eleanor Sterling took two steps back.
But it was still a bit late; Alaric Faulkner had recovered well and was a bit more agile.
He pulled Eleanor Sterling over in one swift motion, and she fell right into his arms!
Though he was recovering well, such an action was still painful, and Alaric Faulkner furrowed his brows, his breathing became heavier.
Eleanor Sterling stared at him, knowing that he had hurt his wound.
Serves him right! He never takes care of his own body, pushing himself so hard repeatedly.
"Don’t move, if I catch you again, it’ll hurt the wound."
His thin lips were next to Eleanor Sterling’s ear, his voice low, even carrying a hint of pleading.
Eleanor Sterling mocked, "Ha, President Faulkner so agile, how could it hurt? I think you can leap around a few more times with that body of yours."
Alaric Faulkner smirked, this woman says one thing but means another.
Sharp-tongued but actually caring about him, wasn’t she?
The little bit of jealousy he felt earlier vanished instantly. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelFɪre.net
Knowing that Jasper wouldn’t come to the ward, Eleanor Sterling decided not to come the next day.
After a moment of silence, she spoke, "Will you attend Thea’s Jewelry’s new product launch?"
Alaric Faulkner looked full of disdain, "Why would I go?"
He certainly wouldn’t go to Faye Sterling’s launch, if he were to go, it would be to Eleanor Sterling’s event.
Thereafter, Alaric Faulkner remembered both of their events were on the same day, so it seemed he’d have to drag his body over there.
He hadn’t thought Eleanor Sterling would hope for him to go.
Looking at Eleanor Sterling, Alaric Faulkner’s voice softened a bit, smiling as he said, "Don’t worry, I will go to your launch."
Eleanor Sterling frowned, gritting her teeth as she said, "With your condition, what are you going for? Stay obediently in the hospital, and don’t go anywhere!"
Alaric Faulkner’s eyes deepened with laughter, Eleanor Sterling did care about his injuries.
This ordeal seemed to be worth it!
Unexpectedly, Eleanor Sterling spoke again, "Let Jasper go for you."
As soon as the words fell, Alaric Faulkner’s face instantly darkened.
