Chapter 412 Visiting

They were all company shareholders. When they heard Taylor was hospitalized, they rushed over.

Phoebe, who had been with Theodore for years, knew them well. After greeting them, she said, "Mrs. Reynolds just woke up. She appreciates your concern but is too weak for visitors. Please go back."

The group exchanged glances, understanding that Phoebe's words represented Theodore's wishes, indicating it was time to leave. Moreover, they had been waiting for more than thirty minutes without catching a glimpse of Taylor. After another round of greetings, they left.

Phoebe sighed in relief, walked to the ward, and knocked gently. The door was locked from the inside. A few seconds later, she heard footsteps.

The latch clicked, and the door opened.

Theodore looked ready to snap but calmed when he saw Phoebe. "What are you doing here?"

"I woke up and came to check on Taylor. The shareholders were outside, and I dismissed them. Are you mad I acted on my own?" Phoebe whispered. Theodore shook his head and noticed Evelyn behind her. "Evelyn, you're here."

Evelyn, momentarily stunned, said, "Phoebe told me, and I couldn't sit still. How's Taylor?"

"She's okay. Come in," Theodore said, stepping aside.

Taylor lay in bed, looking haggard without her oxygen mask. Vanessa sat in a wheelchair, talking to her.

Phoebe's fingers curled when she saw Vanessa. She glanced at Theodore, who seemed normal and didn't explain.

Evelyn noticed Vanessa too and tightened her grip on the fruit basket, thinking how Vanessa always showed up at the right time.
