Chapter 1349
Mr. Bradford Sr. turned around and asked Nicole, "You've got to be a friend of Hugh, right? Thank you for visiting me. Please have a seat.'
Nicole sat down calmly, completely ignoring what Hugh was doing there.
'You're the first person to ever visit me after staying in the hospital for so long. I guess you're very close to Hugh, aren't you?" Mr. Bradford Sr. looked at Nicole with a smile.
'Mr. Bradford Sr., do you know how Hugh was able to afford your medical fees?' Nicole asked Mr. Bradford Sr. tentatively.
Mr. Bradford Sr. stared at Nicole in confusion upon hearing her abrupt question.
Then, he shifted his gaze to Hugh before he answered, "Hugh told me that he did very well at work this year, so he received a big bonus."
Hugh was standing at the side. His eyes were narrowed and his fists were clenched as he glared at Nicole.

old as her grandmother.
'Grandpa, we have to go out and talk about something." Hugh cut his grandfather off and motioned Nicole to leave the room with him.
Nicole then looked at Mr. Bradford Sr. and said, "Rest well, sir. I'll get going now."
Hugh brought Nicole to a secluded spot. Then, he spun around to look at Nicole and asked, "How did you know it was me and how did you find me?"
'It was easy to find out who you were, and it was even easier to track you down," Nicole calmly said while staring into his eyes.

Hugh froze, not knowing what to do upon hearing what Nicole had said. He did not expect that his happy days would come to an end so soon, and he did not know if Nicole
would take him to prison either. He had no idea what was going to happen to his grandfather if she really did. A myriad of questions began popping in his head.
'Calm down, I understand the situation you're in. I'm not here to bring you to the cops, but I need to ask you some questions." Nicole flashed him a stern look as she asked.
Hugh could not help but be suspicious after hearing what she said. 'You're not here to get me arrested?!"
'It depends if your answers are satisfy me," she replied.
'What do you want to know?" Hugh looked at her, frightened.
'Who gave you the money?’ Nicole asked as she glared at him, her eyes flashing with sparks.
Hugh drew a deep breath upon hearing that. I've never told anyone about this. How did she find out?'
'How did you find out?" Hugh swallowed and asked.
"That's none of your business. Just answer my question." Nicole retorted with a stern look on her face.

'Do you really think that I can't tell that what your grandfather said is not true? Honestly, don't even try!" Nicole yelled, her voice thundering across the room.
Hugh inhaled deeply. Then, after hesitating for a second, he asked, I can tell you that, but can you guarantee that the money in my account will remain as mine?"
Hugh did not want all of the money to be gone before his grandfather could make a full recovery. It would be no different than putting him in prison.
Nicole thought about it and looked at him. "Nobody wants your money. I can guarantee that."
Hugh hesitated again and said, 'A restaurant owner gave me his number, but I've never met his person. We only communicated with each other through phone."
"A restaurant owner? How did you know him?' Nicole asked.
"My grandpa needed a lot of money for the operation. I couldn't find anybody to lend me the money, so I went to a restaurant to drink my worries away. The owner knew what I was
going through, so he treated me to some snacks and shared a few drinks with me. He told me that he knew a person who could probably help me, so..." Hugh explained, not daring to
look at Nicole because of how guilty and ashamed he felt.
