Chapter 1288 ’It bores me to stay here on my own. I might as well go to work." Jared pushed the door open and walked
out ahead of Nicole.
Nicole shot him a glance and followed suit.
Now sitting in his car, Jared looked over at Nicole. "Are you coming back to stay the night?’
"No, I'm not coming back," Nicole said, after which she stepped on her gas pedal and drove away.
Jared then ignited his engine and drove to his office. On the way, he could not get Nicole out of his head and was in no
mood to work, so he turned around and drove to the hospital.
Once he had arrived at Maximillian's ward, he pushed the door open and walked over. "Grandpa, why are you out of
bed?’
He had not visited his grandfather for just a while and to his surprise, his grandfather had already gotten out of bed.

voice and turned around.
"Grandpa, did the doctor say that you can get out of bed and move around? ’ Jared asked.
"The doctor said I'm recovering fast, and can get out of bed slowly now." Maximillian looked at Jared with sincerity
in his eyes, though he was lying.
Jared nodded, believing him. "That's good, but you should also get more rest and take it slowly."
"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. Anyway, what brings you here today?" Maximillian asked, looking over at Jared.
"It has been a few days since I've last visited you. It just so happens that I'm not as busy today, so I dropped by to
see you," Jared said, not telling him the real reason.
"Come over and sit down." Maximillian gestured, signaling Jared to walk him to the couch and sit him down. "Jared,
when the doctor comes later, you ask him if I can be discharged from the hospital."
As he said those words, the intention of getting out of the hospital was written all over his face.
"Judging by how quickly you are recovering, you'll probably be discharged from the hospital soon. I will ask the
doctor later when he comes by," Jared said.
"By the way, have you gotten any information regarding Henry yet?" the old man asked.
Maximillian was always thinking about Henry, and would ask Jared the same question during every visit.
"My men found him abroad. They said that he seems to have joined forces with some foreign company. Now, we
have no way of bringing him back." Jared said, telling Maximillian everything he knew, as he knew that he would not
be able to fool his grandfather.
"Traitor! How dare he defect to foreigners? Find him, and I will break his legs!" Maximillian bellowed.
’Grandpa, don't worry about it." Jared said, not wanting his grandfather to worry about Henry when he was still sick.
"I will take care of it."

While the two were talking, the doctor, who had just walked in from the hallway, was stunned to see Maximillian sitting
on the couch, talking to Jared.
"Why are you out of bed?!" The doctor hurried over to Maximillian.
Maximillian did not look too happy because he thought that the doctor had talked too much. 'Could he not come in later?
I have only just gotten out of bed and have moved around for just a while.'
’Hi, Mr. Johnston," the doctor greeted Jared.
Jared then realized that his grandfather had secretly gotten out of bed on his own, and that the doctor had not allowed
him to move around.
"Mr. Chairman, you can't get out of bed yet. Haven't I explained that to you?
Why are you getting out of bed again?" the doctor said with a tone of concern, after which he helped Maximillian back to
bed with Jared.
Jared eyed his grandfather with a look of helplessness, as it seemed that this was not the first time he had sneaked out of
bed.
