Chapter 314 Would It Be a Ring?

Jordan’s mood darkened when he and Anthony left Milly’s ward. Anthony couldn’t help but take a step back.

He was terrified by Jordan’s aura..

Jordan eyed the nurse standing nearby and asked coldly, “Has Milly been seeing anyone here in the past few days? Or has she gotten particularly close to someone?”

The nurse thought for a moment before shaking her head. “No, Mr. Burnett. Ms. Burnett has been recovering in her room the whole time, with only doctors and nurses coming in to check on her. No strangers have visited her.”

No strangers have visited…

Jordan frowned, looking exceptionally serious. Milly’s tone when she said she wanted to pursue someone was not impulsive but seemed like a well–thought–out decision. She was always clear–headed and knew what she wanted, so the person she wanted to pursue was likely someone she already knew.

Moreover, her demeanour today was drastically different from yesterday’s, indicating she made this decision after seeing that person. But, the nurse said no strangers had visited.

Jordan knew the nurse wouldn’t lie since there wasn’t any benefit to doing that, and she wouldn’t dare offend the Burnetts. The only possibility was that the person was also in the hospital and had met her without anyone noticing.

This was a hospital for the upper class. The Burnetts had made significant investments, so they were familiar with the doctors and nurses here, and Jordan was sure none of them knew Milly.

So, the only possibility left was that the person Milly wanted to pursue was a patient in this hospital!

However, patient information was private and confidential. Even with his investments, the hospital wouldn’t disclose such information due to their ethics. The patients here were all wealthy people with security measures in place. It would be difficult for Jordan to investigate them.
