Chapter 552

He still had a poker face, but Cornelia could feel his respect for her

Cornelia let her guard down, “What’s up?”

Ayden said, “President Hartley’s condition is much worse than what you’ve seen. If you’re not busy with

anything else, could you please go back and stay with President Hartley? You don’t have to do

anything, just be by his side.”

“Is he in bad shape?” Cornelia had known Ayden for a long time, but this was the first time she heard

him talk so much. She had a hunch that something was fishy

Ayden was Marcus‘ most trusted subordinate. It was very likely that he was trying to deceive her under

Marcus‘ orders.

She had just come out of Marcus hospital room. He looked fine, did not look like a patient at all.

Ayden said. “His condition is critical”

Cornelia didn’t want to see Marcus at this moment, and she hesitated, “I’m not a doctor My presence

might just add to their problems”

Ayden, “My mom has been taking care of President Hartley for many years. She may have

overstepped her boundaries when she spoke to you earlier. Please don’t mind her May I ask you to

accompany President Hartley?”

Ayden was generally a man of few words, he wouldn’t talk unless necessary. The fact that he was

explaining so much tonight probably meant that Marcus’s condition was really bad

“Abby, go back in Zack’s car. I’m going to check on Marcus.” Cornelia got out of the car, locked it, and

followed Ayden into the hospital.

Once in the elevator, Cornelia quickly pressed the button for the eighth floor Ayden pressed for the

sixth floor.

He said. “President Hartley is on the sixth floor now!

Cornelia had a bad feeling, “Why are we going to the sixth floor?”

Ayden, “You’ll see when you get there.”

The elevator arrived at the sixth floor quickly. As the elevator doors opened, Cornelia followed Ayden’s

footsteps into the corridor. She saw the gleaming letters–ICU!

Just seeing this made Cornelia’s legs go weak. Past events played back in her mind like a movie.

Blood, the man lying on a stretcher, doctors in white coats rushing around….

*Comelia Ayden had walked a distance before he realized that Cornelia hadn’t kept up. He quickly

came back to help her, “What’s wrong?”

Cornelia shook her head, struggling to stay calm, “President Hartley is in the ICU?”

Ayden nodded

Cornelia, “What kind of illness does he have?”

Ayden didn’t answer

Cornelia took a deep breath, straightened her back and walked weakly to the ICU.

Through the transparent glass window, Cornelia saw Marcus lying inside. He was wearing an oxygen

mask, with many tubes inserted in his body, an IV drip in his hand, and his face was as pale as paper,

without a trace of color.

Cornelia could hardly believe what she was seeing. When she left, he looked healthy. It wasn’t that

long ago, how could he become so weak?

She opened her mouth, and asked with difficulty. “How did this happen? What has he been through

while I was away?”
