Chapter 1111
"I have been feeling better with each passing day, but I just don't know when I can get out
of this bed," Mr. Johnston Sr. said, unable to wait anymore.
"Don't rush it, Mr. Johnston Sr. It's going to take a while for you to recover, and your journey
to recovery has just begun. You should rest more," Nicole advised.
"Oh Nicole, I'm so bored in this room. The person whom I get to see most often is the nurse,
and I don't even have anyone to talk to, " Mr. Johnston Sr. complained, after which he
switched the topic of conversation. "What have you been up to lately?"
"Nothing much, I've just been taking a break."
"Are you still going strong with Jared?"
"We're alright," Nicole said, curious about the question. 'Why did Mr. Johnston Sr. ask me
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtabout our relationship? Did Jared tell him something?'
"That's good. Jared has a lot on his plate, so he might not have the time to keep you
company. Please try to understand his situation. Still, I've advised him to make time for you
yesterday. Your relationship is of utmost priority," Mr. Johnston Sr. said, and looked at Nicole
with a smile.
"Yeah." After gathering what she could from what Mr. Johnston Sr. had said, Nicole finally
understood why Jared went over to see her without telling her why.
'He probably did it because of Mr. Johnston Sr.,' she thought.
At that exact moment, the doctor walked in. "It has been a while since I last saw you, Miss Riddle."
Nicole nodded in response and asked, "Is Mr. Johnston Sr. still on the same prescription as before?"
"Ah, about that, Mr. Johnston Sr. has stopped using that prescription since the fourth day he was awake," the
physician replied and looked at Nicole. "Should we prescribe him something new?"
"I think your medication is working fine, so let's just stick with it."
"Alright."
While Nicole was talking to the doctor, her phone rang, prompting her to answer it. "Hey, what's up?"
"Are you busy?" Harvey asked, his voice loud and clear on the other end of the call. "I need to see you."
"I'm in the midst of visiting Mr. Johnston Sr. in the hospital, so I'll be seeing you later," she replied.
"Sure, catch you later," Harvey said.
"You can just leave if you're busy, Nicole," Mr. Johnston Sr. said, looking at her.
"Well then, I'll visit you again when I'm free," Nicole said, bade him farewell, and proceeded to leave the hospital.
Nicole proceeded to drive to the library in which she was supposed to meet Harvey. She did not know why he
wanted to meet her here, of all places, but she walked in nonetheless.
"Where are you?" Nicole texted.
"By the window on the fifth floor," Harvey replied.

silence. Harvey waved at her, whereupon she sauntered over and took a seat.
"Why did you ask me to come here?" Nicole said, her eyes ranging over the surroundings.
"What else can we do in a place like this aside from reading?" Harvey said, delighted to see
Nicole as he responded with a smile.
Nicole took a look at the book that was propped up in front of him. "Do you even understand
what you're reading?"
"Are you making fun of me? Can't you see the annotations next to the text?" Harvey said,
looking extremely confident.
"I'm worried that you might not even understand the annotations, " Nicole mocked.
Harvey rolled his eyes at once and said, "I'm not going to argue with you. By the way, when
are you heading abroad?"
"Why are you asking?" Nicole replied without giving him the answer him as she returned his
gaze.
"Why else? So that I can come along with you, obviously." Harvey said, looking at her with
complete seriousness.
