Secretly Married to a Wealthy Husband-Chapter 868 - Has Anyone Told You
Chapter 868: Chapter 868 Has Anyone Told You
“Camila!” Angela Reid, already weak, fainted instantaneously with shock.
“Angela!” Baxter Walker glanced at his daughter lying in a pool of blood then at his suddenly unconscious wife, his heart also fraught with defeat, scooped her up, and returned to the hospital room.
When the doctor arrived, he too was utterly astonished by the scene before him.
Could it be that the gunshot earlier came from here?
Throughout it all, Baron Stuart stood by calmly.
In the end, he turned and left Camila Walker’s hospital room.

After an hour of emergency treatment, Camila Walker was once again out of danger, but her injuries had worsened, and now she was even weaker than Angela Reid.
But at least, her life was saved.
Emily Walker silently watched the unconscious Camila on the bed, and eventually she also turned and left the hospital room.
Could this mean all the grudges between them could now be erased with one stroke?
Everyone had left, and in the entire hospital room only Clayton Howard remained, his steps as if tethered, unable to be pulled away.
But the vast difference in their status forced him to leave the hospital room.
Without the Young Madam’s orders, he had no reason to stay here.
He took one last glance at the person on the bed and chose to leave in the end.
Upon returning to the hospital room, she saw the man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a slender cigar between his fingers, the blue smoke circling up with his faint breaths.
Hearing the room door pushed open, he turned his head, tossing the cigar away, and turned to face her.
He knew she didn’t like the smell of smoke.
Emily Walker walked in, noticing that he had discarded the cigarette, yet she still couldn’t help saying, “You shouldn’t be smoking or drinking now.”
Baron Stuart gently pursed his thin lips, a slight smile on his mouth, and enveloped her in his arms.
“Has anyone ever told you that cigarettes can relieve pain?”
Emily Walker, startled, indeed hadn’t heard such a thing before.
“I need to make a trip to the company, shall I have Clayton Howard take you home first?” Baron Stuart released her, his tone shifting suddenly, then walked over to the bed and picked up a coat that had been prepared earlier.
Emily Walker, stunned, watched his movements with some surprise.
“Going to the company? But your injuries haven’t healed yet…” During this period, even when there were issues at the company, documents were brought here, and meetings were done over video. Why suddenly decide to go to the hospital now?
Could it be he was angry that she intentionally aimed the bullet off-target?
“It’s okay, I’ve pretty much recovered, and Doctor Gavin also said I could go home to recuperate,” said Baron Stuart, as he walked her toward the front door, “Do you want to see your mother first?”
Emily Walker was puzzled, completely unaware of why he suddenly mentioned being discharged.
But at this moment, he didn’t seem to be giving her a chance to continue asking.
“Baron Stuart, aren’t you…”
“Don’t overthink it.”
Before she could finish her sentence, he interrupted her with a light chuckle.
In the end, she resigned herself and smiled, “Then you go ahead, I’ll wait for mom to wake up before returning. I’ll have Bella Stuart come pick me up in a little while.”
“Alright.” He smiled faintly, not insisting any further.
After escorting her to the entrance of Angela Reid’s hospital room, Baron Stuart finally turned and left.
At the hospital entrance, he changed his habitual demeanor. His normally calmer handsome face suddenly turned frosty, adding to the chill of the cold winter.
Beside the black sedan, he suddenly paused and instructed Clayton Howard who was walking closely behind, “From now on, secretly surveil every move of Camila Walker.”
Clayton Howard’s eyebrows lifted slightly in surprise, but he complied with the command, nodding, “Yes.”
Having given his orders, Baron Stuart turned and entered the black sedan.
