Can't Let Go

Chapter 5 Wait a Minute

After Mary Yun had left, Tingchen was somewhat frustrated that he unbuttoned his collar.

Then he lit up a cigarette.

The snow outside stopfell again.

What was wrong?

He wanted her body and could make love with her forever last night.

But that acrid smell of perfume instantly killed his carnal desire...

Perfume...

A scene last night was swirling in his mind again.

"Mary, you smell so sweet, you have this special scent..."

"Sweet?"

"Yeah, can't you smell it?"

She shook her head, and didn't know what to say.

"A kind of gladdening and refreshing milk scent, I like it."

The man frowned in great frustration, thinking he might be too exhausted today.

Crushing the cigarette in the ashtray, he picked up the phone to give an order.

"Get ready, I'm going to the hospital."

"Yes, Mr. Huo."

Linda Yun washed all the dishes and her mother fell asleep after taking some pills.

"Linda Yun, why are you always wearing a mask?" Aunt Wang, who shared the same ward with

her mother, asked curiously.

They had been living in this room for a week, why was this girl always covering her face?

Linda Yun winked, turned to Aunt Wang and said, "Ms. Wang, I'm prone to get infected by bacteria

since my constitution has been poor since my choldhood . You see I'm now in the hospital, so the

doctor advises me to wear a mask to avoid getting sick."

Aunt Wang nodded, "Oh, I see."

Linda Yun smiled and turned around to fold clothes.

Yun's family didn't want her in Austral City.

But she and her mother was already in Austral City a week earlier.

Patricia Bai was seriously ill, and coming to Austral City for treatment was her last hope.

So Linda Yun had to hide herself. She wore a mask except on having meals.

"Well... we don't have any tissue now, do we? And toothpaste... when did we run out of shampoo?"

After having clothes folded, she realized that they had used up articles for daily use.

She frowned a little bit, took a deep breath and decided to go to the supermarket at the first floor.

"Aunt Wang, I'm going to the supermarket and I will be back very soon." Aunt Wang was watching

TV on her bed.

"Okay." She nodded and smiled back, and then she looked at the TV screen again.

Linda Yun thanked her, came to her mother's side, made sure she was in sound sleep and left.

A black Maybach Zeppelin quietly zoomed into the hospital.

A man whose hair was groomed with pomade trotted to the limo.

The vehicle pulled over steadily.

Joe GuoSecretary Joe Guo hopfell off the limo first, walked to the back and pulled open the door.

"Mr. Huo, you don't have to come here in person. Just believe me, I've arranged the best doctors

for him. Everything will just be alright." This man came close to him, beaming.

The man who he was flattering was nobody else but the legendary figure of Austral City-Michael

Huo.

That man got out of the limo. He was in a black mask.

A little mask could never abate his powerful status. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

"Mr... Mr. Huo..." Manager Wang suddenly stuttered, "Well, well... I, I've already..."

"Mr. Wang, are you talking too much?" Joe Guo interrupted him coldly.

On hearing this, Manager Wang shut his mouth and did not dare to give a word without any

permission.

"Guide us." The man said with an impassive expression and did not meet Mr. Wang's eyes.

"Yes, Sir, yes!" Manager Wang quivered a bit and dashed forward without any hesitation.

It was already past 7,00 in the evening. People were busy with their work during the day.

While they got away from workplace and came to the hospital to take a visit in the evening.

Michael Huo did not have Joe Guo make a phone to the hospital director in advance for he wanted

to avoid turmoils.

He was pretty conspicuous in the crowd, which should be due to his 6.5-feet body height.

The sense of indifference around Michael Huo made the surrounding crowd spontaneously stay a

little bit away from him.

Soon the elevator arrived. The rest of the crowd were afraid of him.

But they lowered their heads and squeezed into for it was too hard to wait for another one.

Joe Guo tipfell Wang a wink, and entered the elevator immediately with Guo closely behind.

Both of them were standing beside Michael Huo as his body guards to keep a distance between

others and their boss.

"Wait, wait for me..." It was Linda Yun, a washbasin in one hand and a huge plastic bag in the

other, that was dashing to them through the crowd.

"Please let me through, please let me through."

Mary Yun dashed into the elevator just before the door was to close.
