Chapter 924

A Beauty With Multiple Masks

Carter nodded and turned toward Jordan. “Stay here with Boss and send her home later, Jordan. I’ll
head over to Harvey‘s now.”

“Got it!” Jordan replied enthusiastically. Given how careless he was with words, he didn‘t want to risk
riling Harvey up either.

As such, it was a far better idea to stay put with Arielle instead.

Soon, Carter left and made his way toward Harvey‘s ward that was situated just one floor below Arielle‘s.

Before he stepped into the ward, Harvey’s voice rang out from inside.

“I already said I won’t take the medicine she prepared!”

Carter shook his head and entered the room, only to see Jared standing beside Harvey with a bowl of
medicine.

Jared explained, “Harvey, this medicine wasn‘t prepared by Boss. It was the hospital that made it. You
can ask around if you don’t believe me.”

“Stop lying to me. I don’t want to repeat myself anymore.”

Carter finally stepped forward and chimed in, “Harvey, take the medicine.”

Harvey’s gaze softened a little when he heard Carter‘s voice, but the frown soon returned.

“I don‘t want anything that‘s hers.”

Carter replied, “Who told you this is hers? She isn‘t any better than you right now, so how would she
have the energy to prepare your medicine?”



Harvey immediately froze. “What happened to her?”

Then, realizing he had accidentally shown his concern for Arielle, he quickly added, “No, don‘t tell me. I
don‘t want to know.”

Pursing his lips, Carter replied with a tinge of annoyance, “Whether you want to know or not, she‘s now
staying in a ward upstairs. As for the medicine, I can swear on my life that she wasn‘t the one who
prepared it. Now, will you drink it?”





“I—”

“Stop being wishy–washy,” Carter interrupted as he took over the medicine from Jared. “You‘re not a
child. You should know what‘s best for you. Rather than being cooped up in the ward, wouldn‘t it be
better to get well soon so you can get discharged? You will then be free to do whatever you like, and she
won‘t know your whereabouts either. Besides, can you bear to see Old Mr. Jupiter running to and fro
between places at his age? Do you want him to tire himself out because of

you?”

Eventually, Harvey accepted the medicine with much reluctance and drank it in one gulp.

Carter finally breathed a sigh of relief as he turned to look at Jared. “Old Mr. Jupiter used to think that
you were the most stubborn one, but from the looks of it now, that title should belong to your brother.”

“I can hear you, you know?” Harvey grumbled, then turned to Jared. “Don‘t worry, Jared. I‘ve thought it
through. I‘ll go along with the treatment and leave this godforsaken place as soon as possible. You don’t
have to stay here. The nurses will take care of me.”



“It‘s all right. It‘s the weekend anyway, and it‘s not like I have anything to do at home,” Jared replied.

Ever since Harvey got hospitalized, Jared realized just how reliant he was on his brother.

However, it was also because of this incident that Jared became more mature.

Carter once again turned his attention toward Jared. “You‘re now in Jadeborough University‘s regular
class, aren‘t you? I heard that Mr. Brown‘s allotting one of Maxwell University‘s early admission spots to
your class. If you‘re worried about your family, you should all the more be preparing for the exam instead
of babysitting this stubborn fellow.”
