NovelEnglishEthan said calmly, "Even if he can't take it, that has nothing to do with me. By now, Jeremy should have arrived
in Hill City."
Jeremy's involvement and Andy's peacemaking operations both required money, so Andy planned to ask
Stephen for another 10 to 20 million dollars. Since Jeremy was now working with Andy, he would go along with
Andy to make the request.
Austin's body immediately tensed up. "What? Jeremy is at Hill City?"
His worst fear had ctrue. He had to hurry back to Hill City to stop Stephen from meeting Jeremy.
The sight of Jeremy could trigger something devastating for Stephen, just like with Snow. Even though she was
still alive, he could never find her. His guilt grew with each passing day, weighing heavier on him until the day it
would break him entirely.
Austin understood that feeling all too well. As a psychologist, he had seen many patients who developed
psychological issues due to relationships. One patient's words still stuck with him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"The day she died, | actually felt okay. Everyone else was crying, but I didn't feel sad. | ate, slept, and scrolled
my phone as usual. But one day, | saw a joke online and wanted to share it with her. Only then did it hitthat
she was gone. From that point on, each day becincreasingly painful."
Snow was already too much for Stephen to bear. If Jeremy were to be added to the equation, Austin was not sure
even his mentor would be able to help Stephen.
On the way back, Austin called Nolan. "Jeremy isn't dead!"
Nolan was unsurprised by the news because he had known for a while that Jeremy was still alive.
Austin pressed on, "He's utterly disappointed in Stephen. You have to keep them from meeting. If they see each
other, it's over!"
Nolan froze. Jeremy was in Hill City?
Nolan started panicking. Although the aurecording evidence was in Ethan's hands, Jeremy was a living
witness. If Jeremy revealed the truth to Stephen, he would be doomed.
"I understand," Nolan immediately agreed.
Preventing Stephen and Jeremy from meeting was something he would do even without it being mentioned.
At the smoment, Andy had brought Marcus and Jeremy along to the hospital.
"He's in this hospital. Follow me," Andy said while holding his phone with Stephen's ward location on it.
Soon, they found themselves in the hallway to Stephen's ward.
Jeremy said, "I won't go in. I'll just wait outside."
Andy understood, so he just nodded and replied, "Alright. We'll be back soon."
He and Marcus then entered the ward.
Stephen was still lying in bed, while Nolan sat uneasily by his side. A doctor and nurse were also conducting a
check-up on Stephen. Simon was not there as he had gone to prepare sfood for Stephen, while Rachel had
gone to send George off.
As Andy and Marcus walked in, Stephen and Nolan looked toward them.
Stephen, a little surprised, thought, 'It looks like Andy still cares about me. He heard | was hospitalized, so he's
here to visit me!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn the other hand, Nolan inhaled sharply. He knew Jeremy had cwith Andy,
so now that Andy was in the room, it meant Jeremy was there too.
"You guys talk," Nolan said before leaving hurriedly.
Once he left the ward, he spotted Jeremy sitting on a chair.
"Are you here to see Stephen?" Nolan asked anxiously.
Jeremy shook his head. "I'm just here with Andy."
"That's good." Nolan let out a sigh of relief.
In the ward, Stephen exclaimed happily, "Andy, what brings you here? Have a seat."
