Chapter 1424
He chuckled lightly. “You little rascal. I thought you were really…”
Hannah interrupted him, “This Christmas, Jarvis and I would like to invite you, your wife, and your baby for dinner.”
Justin responded, “Sure. Christmas is not that far off. You should focus on recovering soon.”
Hannah said, “The doctors say I’m recovering well. I’ll have all my casts off by this afternoon, and with a bit more
rest, I’ll be able to
walk.”
Justin said, “This little Salazar girl has been a gutsy one since childhood. Glad you’re okay, otherwise…”
Hannah asked, “Okay?”
To them, no matter how severe her injuries, as long as she was alive, everything was okay. But for Daniela, as long

People were like that, and comparing only made them uncomfortable.
okay
Justin said, “You silly kid, I meant you’re okay now.”
Hannah responded, “Yes, I believe there’s a saying, good luck is due after a brush with death.”
Justin said, “Definitely.”
Hannah said, “Dr. Terrel, it’s getting late, looks like it’s going to rain soon. You better head home and spend some
time with your wife and child. I need to rest.”
Justin responded, “Okay, I’ll leave now and will visit you when I have time.”
Hannah said, “Have a safe journey home. I’m not in a position to see you off. Once I’ve recovered, I’ll properly
entertain your family.”
Justin responded, “Alright.”
Upon leaving the ward, Steven stopped Justin. “So, how is it?”
Justin looked at Steven’s trembling hand and sighed deeply. “If I knew this would happen, I would never have…”
Steven asked, “I’m asking you, how is she now?”
Justin answered, “Hannah is recovering well, her leg is also gradually healing, and she’s in a good/mental state, not
at all depressed about not being able to walk for the moment.”
Steven coldly stared at him. “You know that’s not what I’m asking.”
Justin continued, “I can’t tell whether Hannah has really forgotten you from our conversation. All I know is that she
doesn’t seem to want you in her life anymore.”
Steven raised his hand and punched the wall hard. His knuckles bled instantly, but he seemed oblivious to the pain.
“Can’t you even see that?”

Steven fell silent.
Justin said, “Let’s find a place to sit down and chat over coffee.” He’d just spent over ten hours on a plane and was
so exhausted that he planned to sleep for a day and a night when he got home. He didn’t expect to be whisked to
the hospital as soon as he got off the plane.
He came to help and didn’t even get a glass of water. His profession was all about talking.
Steven said, “Follow me.”
Steven had been keeping Hannah company at the hospital for a month. He had a lounge next door.
Justin said, “Steven, I’m a few years older than you. I’ve watched you grow up. You’ve never been a stubborn
person. Why are you so relentless with this?”
Steven kept silent.
Justin continued, “If you don’t know how to love someone, you should learn from your good friend President
Hartley. Look at how he treats his partner. That’s real love. The way you treat Hannah is not love, it’s selfish and
domineering. You lack humanity.”
