Kendrick looked away from her and faced the Butler instead."Master, you asked for me?" The Butler looked between him and Hailey. She could see the confusion on his face. Because Hailey knew that she looked so scared at the moment, it was even reflecting on her face. "I want you to get me my phone," Kendrick said. "Oh. I have it here with me." The Butler turned to him and quickly reached for his pocket, then he drew a phone out. "I picked it from the study when I went back to the house. Here it is, Master." He handed Kendrick the phone. Kendrick took it and placed it beside him on the bed. "Do you need anything else, Master?" Asked the Butler. Kendrick muttered an answer and waved his hand to dismiss him. After the Butler left, there was silence in the ward. Kendrick kept on staring at Hailey, his frown returning. He didn't care calling her to come close again, and before she could react, his hands reached forward and he caught her hand.Hailey yelped and she tried to struggle

"You can start taking your drugs," The Doctor said and the nurse picked something from her tray. It was a bag. A white bag. The same kind of white bag. Hailey found herself staring too long and she quickly looked away. The doctor's eyes returned to her cautiously, before he faced Kendrick again and continued, "These drugs are safer, as you requested. Please make sure you take them. We'll speak later."Kendrick gave him a reply with a nod. Hailey didn't like the look the doctor was giving her, because she honestly didn't understand. And before he could turn around and leave with the nurse, she found herself blurting out."Is there a way I can help?" She asked. Because if her thoughts were correct, this doctor didn't seem to like her. He had treated Kendrick last time, and he knew what she did. Maybe that was why he was acting so secretive and treating her this way. Otherwise, why wouldn't he speak with Kendrick in front of her? "Yes, Madam." The doctor answered her question and g

He might say something like he wouldn't dare to, only his stupid Master had the right to get her contact. Well, Hailey had immediately blocked Kendrick's contact the moment he put it inside her phone. They never spoke on the phone once. And she started contemplating. She contemplated for a while. If she unblock him now and gave him a call, would he listen to her and send one of the bodyguards to come pick her up? But what if he didn't? Kendrick was as stubborn as a mule and as hard as a rock. She might just waste her time trying to convince him. If that man had his mind set on something, talking him out of it was like telling a weed to stop growing. And that Rick. Even if she had his contact, he was going to follow his precious Master's command in the end.'Argh' Hailey wanted to pull at her hair. And she sat down on the couch. She folded her hands and puffed up her cheeks. Why was he this stubborn? She couldn't help but ask for the umpteenth time. He should be grateful that she

"If you don't care about Kendrick's life, I do. You can't just follow his orders every time. He'll only get more stubborn and do whatever he likes. Just take me with you, and I'll make sure he takes those drugs."The Butler should just agree already. Hailey grimaced. This was the best she could do. She wasn't a professional at acting. He should either go with her, or she would really do as she promised. It wasn't like she would get lost in the city. She knew her way to the hospital. She had memorized its directions. And if it wasn't for that Robot Rick not giving back her own car keys, she would have long left the mansion. She couldn't even remember what excuse he had given her. She just found herself letting him go with her car keys. "Madam." The Butler looked helpless. "I still can't go with you, please have mercy."Kendrick should be the one having mercy. She couldn't believe how scared these people were of the devil. 'Urgh' Couldn't he just have mercy on even himself for once?

Hailey wanted to tell him he was wrong. He was so wrong. And why was she caught up in this? Wasn't he supposed to be the one getting taunted instead of the other way round? Kendrick had once again surprised her. Was he doing this to tick her off? To take revenge for forcing him to take the drugs? "You haven't answered me, Hailey." Kendrick went on speaking. "Do you want me to make you speak?" And how was he going to do that? Hailey snickered. She pursed her lips and kept her mouth shut, then went back to counting the seconds.He might as well keep asking the empty air, while she waited for him to fall asleep. She pushed her head to the side, ignoring his question, and focused instead on her own thoughts. Kendrick also went silent. He didn't say anything for a while. Good. Hailey was relieved. He should keep his mouth shut until the sleep overtook him.But Kendrick didn't keep his mouth shut. Because moments later she heard his voice again."Well. You asked for it," he said with a
