Ste pressed her lips together and stayed silent.
She remembered how Lindsay had shielded her from the robber’s knife during the robbery.
If Lindsay had romantic feelings for Matthew, she might see Ste as a rival.
Why would she risk her life to protect her?
Despite Miley’s advice, Ste decided to trust that Lindsay wasn’t that type of person.
She said, “No, I don’t think she has.
I’ve met her a few times.
She’s just a simple girl.
A few days ago, when we encountered a robber, she got hurt trying to protect me.
”
Miley fell silent.
“It’ste.
We should hang up and get some sleep.
” Ste then suggested gently, “When I’m back in Seamarsh, I’ll introduce you to Lindsay.
You both have simr personalities.
I’m sure you’ll get along.
”
Miley didn’t continue this topic.
She hoped she was just overthinking things.
“By the way, how is your grandpa now? What did the doctor say?”
Ste replied, “He hasn’t woken up yet, but he’s out of danger.
He should be okay.
”
“That’s a relief,” Miley said softly.
“Have you thought about convincing your grandpa toe to Seamarsh with you? He’s getting older, and the butler is no different.
If something like this happens again, you might not get there in time.
”
Ste considered Miley’s suggestion reasonable.
“You’re right.
I’ll talk to him about it.
”
After chatting with Miley for a while longer, Ste ended the call.
When she returned to Clint’s bedside, there was still no change in his condition.
After pondering for a moment, Ste tried calling Matthew, but his phone was switched off.
Frowning, Ste hung up the phone and stared nkly at it.
There was a knock on the door.
Fernando gently pushed it open and entered the ward.
He had also seen the photos online and intended to call Matthew but couldn’t reach him, so he came directly to Ste to inform her.
But before he could say anything, he was interrupted.
“I already know.
” Ste spoke quietly.
Fernando was momentarily taken aback, and then asked, “Should we delete the news first? Or rify Lindsay’s rtionship with Mr.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
rk?”
From the day Lindsay joined Prosperity Group, Fernando had known her true identity.
“I arranged the crew today, but I didn’t anticipate the tabloids twisting the facts like this.
I apologize for any trouble this has caused you,” he added.
Ste shook her head and replied, “It’s not your fault.
”
Just then, Ste’s phone rang.
It was Lindsay calling.
