Harold knocked on the door before stepping into the ward.
Meanwhile, Julian stood in the hallway, again dialing Estelle’s number.
Just like yesterday, there was no answer. A trace of irritation flickered in his chest.
He was about to call again when Harold walked out, his expression oddly complicated.
Julian paused. “Why are you back so soon? Does the other party still not want to admit it?
Harold glanced at him hesitantly as it debating whether to speak
After a moment, he finally said, “Mr. Grant… I think you should take a look yourself.”
Harold was an exceptional assistant. This matter shouldn’t have been difficult for him to handle. For him to suggest jallan see for himself, it had to be something significant.
Julian shot him a glance before pushing open the door and stepping inside.

However, he had hung up on her.
Even if he had so much as glanced in her direction, he would have seen her.
But he didn’t. Not even once.
