Chapter 144 Gratitude Is

Better Than Resentment

Upon hearing the urgency in Eric’s voice, Phillips immediately grasped the situation. “Mr. Flynn, do we need to intervene?”

Eric affirmed with a subtle nod. “Yes.”

After all, he couldn’t ignore such a significant risk near Hadley. This incident involved severe abdominal pain during a typhoon that had shut down all traffic!

The potential disaster had been narrowly averted thanks to his timely intervention.

Alita’s malice was clear.

At the same time, Denver made his way to the hospital urgently.

“Has someone named Hadley been admitted recently?”

“Yes, she’s currently in Emergency Observation Room 3.”

“Thanks!” Denver expressed his gratitude.

Upon entering the quiet observation room, he moved cautiously towards the bed and took a seat beside it.

“Hadley…”

Denver grasped her hand tenderly, his voice low and concerned. “I’m sorry for arriving late… I’m relieved to see you’re alright…”

There was a faint movement of Hadley’s hand within his.

“Hadley?” Denver’s voice showed his surprise. “Can you hear me?”

She grimaced slightly, her eyelids fluttering open. “Denver… is that you?”

The pain had clouded her awareness, leaving only fragments of memory of being carried swiftly to the hospital.

It was unexpected yet somehow anticipated. It could only be Denver who would come to her help like this.

Through the storm, with all routes shut down, he alone would defy the odds for her.

“Yes, I’m here.” Denver confirmed, his face shadowed by concern. “Apologies for the delay. How do you feel

now?”

Her voice was weak but filled with warmth. “Much better, thank you.” She paused, a mix of confusion and gratitude in her eyes. “How did you find out I was in trouble?”
