Jared gave Martin a glance and a slight nod. He was in a daze as he continued to look at Nicole.
"Let's bring this conversation out of here,” Martin said as the two men helped Nicole toward the couch.
The trio then took their seats on the couch, with Nicole sandwiched in the middle. She shot him a glance and blinked.
Jared did not understand what she had meant and turned to Martin.
Martin immediately explained. "Oh, she said that there's no need to worry. She's fine."
Jared looked at Martin with his brows raised. 'How the heck was he able to read that?’
"I got it. Just relax and heal up. This wound is nothing. I'll hire the best doctors in the city to treat you." Jared turned around and comforted Nicole at once, intent on getting the best doctors to restore Nicole's visage.
The instant Nicole heard that he wished to hire another doctor, she thought, ‘Won't my ruse be exposed?’
Then, she gave him another blink at once.
"What's the matter with her?" Jared asked Martin, unable to understand her sudden blinking
Martin looked at everything that Nicole was doing, and as he thought about what Jared had said earlier, he explained, "She's probably hinting to you that there's no need to get another doctor. I'm the most reliable doctor around and she doesn't want treatment from anyone else."
Jared took a deep breath and explained to Nicole, "I know Martin's very skilled, but there are many other doctors abroad who are experts at what they do. They specialize in treating wounds like these. Besides, Martin is busy and won't be having much time."
"Jared, I no longer have to supervise the factory twenty-four seven already. Further still, with a wound like that, it is my duty to do my best to treat her, as a good friend of hers,” Martin said as he gave Jared a look that brimmed with resolution.
“Alright then. You must tell me if you need anything. Money is no object, so long as Nicole is healed. I'll leave it all under your care." Jared looked solemnly at Martin.
"Don't worry, Jared, I'll inform you if I ever need anything.”
Concurrently, Martin began to think, ‘What should I do if Jared finds out that I'm colluding with Nicole in this ruse...?’
"Well then, should we arrange for Nicole to be hospitalized?" Jared asked Martin.
In response, Martin looked at Nicole and said, "Sure."
Jared took his phone out at once and called Max. While Jared was busy in the midst of his call, Nicole shot Martin another glance.
"Nicole, let's just move right away.” Jared said to Nicole, sounding distressed.
Nicole blinked at Jared in agreement. He then helped her up as they walked out.
"Jared, I'll drive you two there," Martin offered, feeling that Jared would want to take care of Nicole at the back seat.
"Alright," Jared said, before he and Nicole entered the back seat.
Martin started the car and left his place as they headed for the hospital, and along the way, Jared would comfort Nicole from time to time.
"Does it hurt?"
Nicole shook her head.
Martin snuck a glance at Jared through the rearview mirror as he drove. Soon after, they arrived at the hospital, and with Jared's help, Nicole slowly made her way into the hospital.
As they passed through the crowded hall, many in the building began to cast curious glances at Nicole.
Nicole looked around while pretending that she was not. This was what she wanted. The more people knew about it, the sooner the news would reach Joyce's ears.
As they were bombarded with countless curious stares from the crowd, Jared, Nicole, and Martin got into the elevator and proceeded to the ward that had been arranged for her upstairs.
