He had no idea that coming to Violet Don's hospital room at this time would mean he'd hear such news, but when every word from Grayson Sutton reached Noah Bates's ears, his heart counted down, his breathing quickened, and his entire body felt numb as if drained of blood.
He turned around, his tall figure walked alone down the corridor, until eventually, his steps grew wider, to the point where he reached the hospital elevator where Nicholas Woods just stepped out, colliding with Noah Bates as he hurried towards it.
Nicholas Woods took a step back, "I'm sorry, Young Master Bates, we've found a way to ease Miss Don's memory pressure..."
Noah Bates paused mid-step, his eyes slightly red, he turned his face to Nicholas Woods, and said, "Give me the documents."
"You... Aren't you going to visit her in the room?"
He had just rushed to end the meeting and leave work early to see Violet Don, so why was he in such a hurry to return now?
