Chapter 1098 - 570: Extra: You Left Claud Laurence Behind and Came Because I Was Hurt? (1_2)
Perhaps she gave herself too many escape routes, and that’s why she found herself unable to control her fate time and again...Maybe she shouldn’t have left herself such an escape route.
She should understand that meeting Claud Laurence was the greatest fortune in her life.
An hour later.
Alice Robinson was standing in front of the Yorna Hotel with her luggage.
Claud Laurence walked out of the hotel, followed by bodyguards, and next to him was his assistant, Robin...
At this moment, Claud Laurence was explaining something to Robin, heading towards a Bentley parked outside the hotel’s entrance...
After finishing his instructions, Claud Laurence was about to bend down and get into the car when he suddenly paused, his gaze meeting Alice Robinson’s perfectly.
Alice was wearing a casual Bohemian long dress today, which was very different from her recent neat OL attire. She was smiling gently at Claud Laurence.
Claud Laurence squinted slightly, as if in disbelief...
Alice dropped her suitcase and ran towards Claud Laurence.
Claud Laurence also moved towards Alice, and in the next moment, he held Alice tightly, who rushed into his arms.
Alice stood on tiptoe and leaned on Claud Laurence’s shoulder.
Claud Laurence tightened his grip on Alice, lightly kissing her hair that emitted a faint fragrance, his voice hoarse, "Baby, what brings you here?"
Alice held Claud Laurence tightly, saying, "I called Robin, and he said you were still at the hotel, so I hurried over..."
"He didn’t tell me."
"I asked him not to tell you."
In that moment, Claud Laurence pulled Alice apart and kissed her deeply.
After a long time, Claud Laurence walked with Alice arm in arm, asking, "Are you sure you want to go to New York with me?"
Alice nuzzled in Claud Laurence’s embrace, "The problem I mentioned last time has been solved. Uncle Grant and the others have come back to help me... I have nothing much on these days, so I can take a few days off."
"Can you bear to leave Rachel?"
"I just told her, and she’s happy that I’m going on vacation with you... She said she would obediently wait for my return."
Claud Laurence gazed deeply at Alice, a glimmer flowing in his dark eyes, "Baby, you gave me a big surprise."
"You’re too easy to please... because there will be more and more surprises from me in the future."
The next second, "Ah!"
Alice screamed because Claud Laurence lifted her up.
Suddenly airborne, Alice clung tightly to Claud Laurence’s strong neck.
The gazes of the surrounding people all turned towards them.
Alice blushed, "What are you doing..."
Claud Laurence lowered his head, giving Alice a kiss, "I want it to be just the two of us in the world."
In life, unexpected events always happen.
Just like at this moment, Alice didn’t expect that as she was sitting in Claud Laurence’s car on her way to the airport, Keith Antony would call her phone.
She glanced at the number as she took out her phone, hesitating.
Keith Antony usually wouldn’t call her in the morning, unless there was something important.
Claud Laurence noticed her hesitation and asked, "Who is it? Why not answer it?"
Alice said, "It’s my brother’s assistant."
"Oh... then why not take it?"
Alice paused for a moment, then pressed the answer button, "Hello..."
From the phone came Keith Antony’s rare urgent voice, "Miss Alice, where are you?"
Alice calmly said, "I’m with my boyfriend... Is there something wrong?"
"I’m at Victoria Hospital now, Miss Alice, you’d better come over..."
"What happened?"
"The boss is in trouble..."
"What?"
Alice’s exclamation caught the attention of Claud Laurence, who was holding her, "What’s wrong?"
Alice’s face turned pale, "Assistant Antony said my brother is in trouble and at the hospital now."
"What happened?"
Alice shook her head, "Assistant Antony didn’t tell me the specifics, just asked me to go to the hospital."
Claud Laurence gently said, "I’ll ask the driver to take you back."
As Claud Laurence spoke, his once radiant gaze dimmed.
Alice pondered in silence for a few seconds.
He got into an accident and went to the hospital?
This news seemed almost surreal to her...
What could have happened to him?
He always had Keith Antony by his side, and there were three to five bodyguards for him to command at any time, so a car accident was impossible...
Could he be ill?
That seemed even less likely... last night he was passionately engaged with a beauty all night, and this morning he was in an excellent mood having breakfast with his lady companion, not at all like a sick person.
So...
She couldn’t entirely believe what Keith Antony said.
"It doesn’t matter... my brother should be fine, he’s a doctor himself, he knows how to take care of himself, plus my sister-in-law is by his side."
Claud Laurence pulled Alice into his arms, "Then I’ll send someone to the hospital to see your brother."
"Okay."
The person Claud Laurence sent to the hospital called back, confirming that Chester Robinson was indeed at the hospital.
Alice’s heart had already calmed down, but upon hearing that Chester was actually at the hospital, she lost her previous certainty.
Claud Laurence noticed Alice’s unease and suddenly instructed the driver, "To Victoria Hospital."
Alice was taken aback, lifting her gaze from Claud Laurence’s embrace, "Why..."
Claud Laurence kissed Alice lightly on her lips, "I can tell you’re very worried about your brother."
"I..."
"I’ll take you to the hospital."
"But there’s a meeting waiting for you there. Accompanying me to the hospital will delay your meeting."
"It won’t be delayed, I’ll take you to the hospital first, then head to the airport in time."
"But..."
Claud Laurence gently kissed the back of Alice’s hand, "You’ve already given me a big surprise today, baby, you don’t need to prove anything else."
He saw through her thoughts at a glance.
"Claud, I really want to go to New York with you."
Claud Laurence looked into Alice’s sincere eyes, speaking gently, "A few days don’t matter... in the future, you have all my life to spend with me."
