Chapter 43: Just Friends

Jennifer’s POV:

Although I promised Anthony that I wouldn’t go to the hospital to take care of Daniel, I was still worried about him.

In particular, when I received a message from the doctor saying that Daniel had finally regained consciousness, I wanted to go and see him.

Otherwise, I would seem too ungrateful.

Therefore, I carefully brought up the matter to Anthony.

As soon as I finished my words, Anthony’s face turned cold again, but in the end, he agreed.

“Okay, but I’m coming with you.” He left me no room to refuse.

“Okay,” I replied.

Anthony smiled and gave me a tight hug.

When the two of us arrived at the hospital, Anthony entered Daniel’s ward first.

I followed him in and closed the door behind me.

Daniel’s eyes widened in surprise as soon as he saw Anthony.

It was obvious that he was so flattered by Anthony’s visit that he wanted to sit up, but he was too weak to do so.

I hurried forward to help Daniel sit up.

“There’s no need to be so formal when you’re sick,” Anthony said to Daniel, who was about to salute him.

Daniel glanced at me in confusion before turning back to Anthony.

“Mr.Jones, what are you doing here?”

“I happened to run into Mr.Jones downstairs, so he came here with me,” I answered immediately.

After all, my relationship with Anthony could not be made public, so I came up with an excuse on the spot.

For some reason, when I glanced at Anthony, I saw him glaring at me.

Did I say anything wrong? He was the one who told me that we had to hide our relationship for the time being.

Daniel looked back and forth between Anthony and me in puzzlement.
