Chapter 28 Does Mr. Jordan Know?

At Florencia Hospital.

After completing the necessary hospitalization formalities, both Caroline and Paige returned to

the ward.

Daniella had been administered a sedative and was laying on the bed, her face pale.

Meanwhile, a hint of guilt appeared on Evan’s somber face as he looked at Daniella with concern.

Caroline suppressed the bitterness in her heart and approached the medical case calmly. “Mr. Jordan, it’s taken care of.”

However, Evan didn’t accept it. “Ask Reuben if he has found Ella’s medical records.”

Nodding, Caroline turned around and left the ward with Paige.

Upon contacting Reuben, she honestly conveyed Evan’s request.

There was a brief silence on the phone before Reuben spoke. “She has suffered from severe psychological trauma since childhood, which led to regular sessions with a therapist and the use

of psychotropic medication. I met with the former director to inquire, but the details were unclear.

I’m now reaching out to the deputy director for more information.”

After ending the call, Paige pursed her lips and spoke from the side. “It’s quite alarming. How did

we never notice any signs before?”

Caroline put her phone back into her bag. “One cannot fabricate medical records.”

Paige continued, “True, but I have a strange feeling about all of this”

Caroline asked, “Have you ever seen her take any medication?”

Paige responded, “Well, I haven’t paid much attention. I’ll observe her closely next time we’re back

at the office.”

She had a gut feeling that something was amiss with Daniella.

After informing Evan about Reuben’s update, Caroline and Paige left the hospital to grab a bite to
