Chapter 194: Admitting Mistakes
The pain in his thighs that penetrated deep into the bone marrow kept Jonas from sleeping well, barely holding out until dawn, and asked Nicole to help him put water and lie down next to him to rest for a while.
Nicole didn't have a good rest yesterday, and after tossing and turning all day, she couldn't stay up for a long time, and fell asleep on the side of her left leg on his hospital bed.
As soon as Jonas finished draining the water, Kaeya Young, who had been hiding, immediately came over. "Jonas, are you alright?"
The strength of the anesthetic dissipated, and the throbbing pain was extremely uncomfortable.
But think about Plov being even more bitter, he was shot next to Chrysanthemum, and he must be more uncomfortable than himself. Thinking of this, Jonas was a little inauthentic but rejoiced.
"It's certainly not a good time...... Are the police still there?"
When I returned in the morning, Mr. Davis sent the police away, saying that he would wait until you were better before recording your statement.
Jonas nodded and asked, "Where's Laken?"
He went back to his apartment to rest, and Davis arranged bodyguards to protect him. ”
Jonas had a bitter mouth, asked Kaia Young to bring a bottle of water, rinsed his mouth, and then asked, "Do you understand the specific situation?"
"When I came back, I heard Mr. Davis briefly say that several of the gunmen were from New York, but because the leader was dead, the two younger brothers had no idea who had invited them. ”
"So did Davis say the name Harvey Weinstein?"
"I mentioned it, but he didn't elaborate on it with me. ”
Jonas also understands that even if revenge is needed, the fewer people who know, the better.
He comforted and said, "You have made a great contribution this time, and when you go back, I will reward you for your meritorious deeds." ”
When he heard this, he began to shudder again. "Since I am your bodyguard, it is also my duty to protect you. But, boss, I find that you are in danger of being around, should you increase your salary?"
Jonas deliberately teased him and said, "I think honor is far more important than profit!"
"Cut ......" Kaeya Young rolled his eyes and said seriously, "There are thousands of reporters and fans gathered outside Santa Maria Hospital, Jonas, and now the impact of this matter is too great. ”
Thinking of this, Jonas also had a headache, this matter cannot be solved by relationships.
Jonas braced his hands and looked back at his wrapped thighs.
After a night, the thighs were completely swollen, and the flesh on the outside of the gauze turned blue and purple.
He propped his hands on, tried not to move his right leg, and stood directly on the ground next to the bed from the bed.
He was shot in the back of the thigh, and he could lie on his stomach and stand, but he couldn't sit.
But as soon as he stood up, Jonas almost fainted from the tearing pain caused by the fall of his right leg, and he barely held himself on to the side of the bed, waiting for the pain to pass.
In just a few tens of seconds, in this air-conditioned room, Jonas sweated in pain.
The pain passed, or maybe he got used to the pain, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. "Someone get me something to eat, I'm hungry now......"
Toledo was holding a huge bouquet of flowers in his arms, which he had always thought was silly, even in the face of pursuing women, he had never done such a stupid thing.
But today, he thinks this kind of foolishness is perfect when facing Jonas.
He knows very well that he is here to be a grandson today, and as long as he can help his father solve the difficulties in front of him, everything will be worth it.
Entering the ward, he saw a tall figure standing in front of a desk-built by the window, smiling harmlessly at him.
"Hello, Toledo, Mr. Rodriguez is so kind......"
This is a desk built with two center of gravity cars of the hospital, the center of gravity car is raised to the highest and stuck between the bed and the window, and a card plate for hospital meals is stuck on top of the two cars, supporting a platform.
On top of the platform lay a thick stack of newspapers, on which Jonas lay on it, and stretched out his right hand to him through the cardboard.
"No, don't say that......" Toledo hurriedly handed the flowers to one of the bodyguards behind him, and took Jonas' right hand with both hands. "When my dad heard the news, he was very upset. In the final analysis, this incident was triggered by his inconsiderate work.
He was concerned that this matter would affect the cooperation between East Pacific and Hoffman Investment Bank, so he appointed me to apologize to Mr. Hoffman and promised to use all means to resolve the matter. ”
Jonas smiled and asked, "So what are you going to do?"
Toledo was a little speechless, and Rodriguez kept him out of gang affairs. Of course, he deliberately did not get involved in these affairs, and for a family like them, an innocent resume is of great use in many cases.
Although he didn't know the next solution to this matter, he knew that his attitude was the most important thing.
So he said without concealment: "I don't know the specific plan, because I'm just a student at school like you, and my dad didn't let me touch his things."
It is for this reason that I can visit the hospital today without any scruples.
However, I brought my dad's sincerity, and he could do whatever it took to settle the matter. ”
Jonas understood what the other party meant, and said with a smile: "You guys are too careful, but this matter is currently involving the police, and the most important thing for us is to avoid the police digging deeply, what do you think?"
Toledo didn't understand what Jonas meant, but he guessed that Jonas wanted to cover the lid. He also said vaguely: "We will cooperate with all your plans." ”
After the two finished talking and chatted a few more words, Toledo saw that the other party was holding back the pain in his thighs, and his face was sweating, and he knew that it was time for him to leave.
But he deliberately took out a signature pen and a notebook and said, "Can you sign it for me?"
Jonas was not polite. "Absolutely. ”
After receiving the autograph, Toledo pretended to be happy and said: "The Swiss team has a lot of potential under your leadership, and I hope that you can still achieve good results in the World Cup in two years' time." When the time comes, I won't miss a single of your games. ”
Having Toledo sent away, Jonas couldn't help but shout, "Nicole, come and help me get to the hospital bed, my leg hurts to death." ”
Jonas only realized today that pretending to be a comparison sometimes doesn't feel good.
Nicole, who had taken refuge in another reception room, immediately ran in, took Jonas's vial, and was careful not to let the needle fall off, allowing Kaeya Young to help Jonas back to bed.
He doesn't actually know the relationship behind the whole thing right now, but he can feel that Rodriguez still values his relationship with him very much.
It's just that after this incident, he and Rodriguez can no longer fully control the situation.
Thinking that the newspaper was full of his own news, his head was starting to hurt now.
Laken rested and arrived at the hospital, but the sight of him startled Jonas.
He has heavy bags under his eyes, dark circles under his eyes, and he has lost his usual smile on his face, and he looks preoccupied.
An ordinary person shoots and kills someone, and this impact is not so easy to subside.
Jonas apologized sincerely: "Raken, I'm sorry to involve you. ”
Raken himself was not in a good state, but he still said, "Don't say that, Jonas, we are relatives. In order to protect you, I am willing to plunge myself into hell. ”
Although this guy is not very reliable on weekdays, at this moment, Jonas was really moved.
In his previous life, he was born after the reform, and he has been facing social changes and the sinking of human nature in the process of growing up.
It was a time of selfishness, an age of moral decay.
Except for money and power, there seems to be nothing left to pursue and protect.
But in this life, at least in the Hoffman family, he found that the seemingly unreliable Laken and them were more important than anything else in maintaining the honor of the family and maintaining family affection.
Honestly, it's heartwarming.
"Jonas, my mom and your grandma were on their plane to Los Angeles last night and should have arrived at three o'clock in the afternoon, that is, four o'clock at most, and you will be able to meet them. ”
Jonasden was a little flustered, he was really a little afraid to see his grandmother now, he didn't want her to be sad, but he kept worrying her.
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't even think about how to deal with his grandmother, and he was just ready to be an ostrich.
He didn't notice that Nicole was just as scared as he was.
This time, the cause of the incident in the first place was because of her, Hannah once wanted her not to act in the movie, but she refused.
Now that the dispute she had caused had nearly cost Jonas his life, she could imagine how much the stern old lady hated her in her heart.
She didn't want to be separated from Jonas, and she didn't think she could find a more perfect boyfriend than Jonas.
In particular, the forces behind Jonas are unmatched by anyone.
But he can't do anything now, like a defendant in the judgment seat, he can only wait for the judge's trial.
But no matter how frightened they were, at a little after four o'clock, the two old ladies, as well as Andrei and Yankel, two elders, and four bodyguards, arrived at the hospital on time.
When Vera saw Jonas's bruised and swollen thighs, tears began to flow down her cheeks, and she cried out in her mouth.
Hannah, on the other hand, remained very calm, staring coldly at the terrified Nicole for a long time before she looked away. "Can you give Jonas and Jonas five minutes alone time?"
A group of juniors and bodyguards didn't dare to disobey and went to the lounge next to them. Andrei and Laken persuaded for a while and helped Vera out.
Hannah followed them, closed the door to the ward, and when she turned around, her eyes were already full of tears.
Jonas lay on the bed, feeling a little weak. "Grandma, don't cry......"
Hannah let the tears flow, crouched at the head of the bed, hugged Jonas's face and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Jonas squeezed out a smile. "Grandma, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt. ”
Hannah burst into tears, but her eyes were filled with disappointment, pity, and endless sadness. Suddenly, she snapped her hand and gave Jonas a big slap in the face. He asked again, "Does it hurt?"
Jonas stretched out his movable right hand and put his arm around Hannah's thin shoulder, tears streaming down his face. "Grandma, I was wrong. ”
