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.”

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

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

eat.
