On New Year’s Eve, Beatrice sat in the emergency room and stared at the TV for a long time. Finally, she made up her mind to use the first pot of money she earned from the internship at Dolton Group to lock in the room number of a small apartment in Akso.
After her repeated instructions, the agency agreed to handle it as soon as possible. It only took two months from the deposit to the move-in.
Not long after, she received a call from Nathaniel.
“Miss Haynes, how can you return the deposit for Sunset Villa? This is the best villa area in Linkon. Mr. Dolton personally called to book the king of the building. How can I explain to Mr. Dolton if you are so ungrateful?”
Beatrice’s eyelids trembled and her thin fingers clenched in her sleeves, but her voice was neither hurried nor slow.
“You are not allowed to interfere with my decision and naturally you don’t need to explain it. I will explain it to Harold myself.”
There was a crackling sound from the other side and the signal was blind.
“No. 323, come and get an IV.”
Beatrice was pulled aside by the nurse unexpectedly and simply turned on the hands-free.
