Chapter 28 Can this be concealed

The two of them had been bickering all the way, and when they returned to the military district hospital, Tessa's operation had just been completed.

Tessa was sleeping peacefully and soundly, covered with a white sheet and with salt water hanging from her wrist. Bailey rushed over at once, but was stopped by the beautiful nurse. The patient's anesthetic had not worn off at this time and needed rest.

"Sir Henry, this operation is very effective. In a few days after the stitches are removed, the patient will be able to walk freely. But you still need to take care of your health in daily life and not get emotionally agitated." Members of the expert group reported to Henry.

Just then Henry's phone rang and he answered it, and in an instant Harold's roar came from there, "Come and see me right now, at once!"

There was no room for Henry to reply, Harold had already hung up the phone.

The father and son, as if they were enemies meeting, spoke in a fighting tone.

But Bailey was puzzled as to why Henry, who always had a pleasant conversation with others, was so hostile to his own father. It's not surprising that Harold, as a high-ranking defense official, spoke in a condescending manner, but presumably he didn't have to put on AIRS with his own son.

Henry turned off his phone and glanced at the time. The storm was half an hour later than expected.

"Let's go." Henry pulled Bailey downstairs.

But Bailey found a strange place where Henry had instructed Alvin to stay when she had been pulled away. But now, Alvin isn't here.

"Things have changed, plans have changed, Alvin I'm sent out elsewhere."

Henry didn't explain to Bailey exactly what he was going to do. The top priority at the moment was to meet Harold.

The last time I saw Harold, he looked gloomy and Bailey felt very uncomfortable. This time he was in a rage and had no idea what would happen.

Bailey was a little uneasy, but Henry showed no sign of unease. His handsome face wore a nonchalant smile.

At the same time, in the courtyard of House of Morris.

Lynn, dressed in an upscale silk cheongsam, gracefully held a cup of black tea and looked at Paula and Keith.

"Your dad is in the study, waiting for Henry to come back. You mustn't get into trouble. Especially Keith, this article is written by you. You'd better avoid it these days." Probably because of her frequent yoga and swimming, Lynn still has a slender figure and wears her cheongsam in a three-dimensional and elegant way.

Keith is a journalist. His duty is to pursue the truth and expose the darkness. This is Henry's fault. What responsibility does Keith have?" Paula, looking down at her phone, chimed in. She was angry when she thought of Henry defending Bailey and choking himself half to death at the dinner party.

Now that Keith is doing this, it really relieves her. I really wish I could take this opportunity to get Henry out of the House of Morris so that Dad could get him out of the house.

"I have no objection to this, but pay attention to the way. The same thing is better done with a dummy." Lynn said to her daughter, "Using a knife to kill, you know."

Paula looked blankly at her mother and nodded. In fact, she didn't understand what her mother meant at all. It was Keith who had an idea, using the knife to kill someone?

Oh no, he had thought Carl was helping him, and now he realized that Carl was using him as a knife against Henry.

At that moment, the doorbell rang at the entrance of House of Morris, and the servant ran to open it.

Lynn gave a faint glance over there and said with a chuckle, "Henry is here and World War III is about to break out."

Henry had just reached Harold's study door with Bailey and raised his hand to knock when suddenly Harold's deep voice came from inside: "The door is unlocked. Just go in."

The two of them went into the study.

"Pop," Harold threw a newspaper hard at Henry's feet.

"Look at what you've done, it's all in the party newspaper."Harold said furiously, his facial lines stiffening.

"I saw it, but I don't understand why I put up my photo." Henry responded to his father nonchalantly.

It was Bailey who felt curious, reached out to pick up the newspaper and read it, only to find out that Keith had published an article attacking Henry. She was also involved in this matter.

"You have the nerve to say it." Harold opened the party newspaper today and was startled by what was published there. He called the director of the military district hospital and asked about the situation.

Only then did he realize that Henry had given the high-ranking official ward to Bailey's mother for treatment. There is no doubt that although Henry's name is not mentioned in the article, every word that is published points to him.

"I did not violate national law or military discipline. Why am I ashamed to say it?" Henry pulled over a chair, and before Harold could nod, he sat down.

Harold was really driven crazy by his son. He slapped the table with his hand and said, "Is the cost of the high-ranking cadre ward something your salary can afford?" Besides, what right do you have to transfer the right to use the high-ranking official ward to others at will?

"Neither of the two points you said holds true." Henry stretched out his hand lazily and brought over the remote control of the TV. As he pressed his finger, the LCD TV hanging on the wall suddenly lit up.

The TV screen showed that someone was holding a press conference and many reporters were shooting long and short cameras at one person, snapping pictures.

The man, holding a script, was speaking into the microphone: "I came here to clarify that I was a good friend of Bailey's father during his lifetime. All the expenses for her mother's treatment in the high-ranking official ward this time were funded by me personally and had nothing to do with anyone else or any organization."

The man, dressed in a suit and tie, was sharp and steady, typical of a business leader.

Bailey's name was also mentioned in his speech, which couldn't help but make Bailey feel strange. Her father was an ordinary chemistry teacher in his lifetime. How could he have met such a high school friend?

Bailey fixed her eyes on the television screen and saw that the man who was speaking in front of the camera was actually the driver Alvin.

A man is known by his clothes. On ordinary days, seeing him in a car to pick up and drop off Henry, he seemed like a hardworking and honest man. Who would have thought that when he put on this suit and stood in front of the camera, he would have an air of power and shrewdness.

Bailey then remembered that Henry had told him before leaving the hospital that he had sent Alvin out to organize the media and hold a press conference.

But Alvin was a driver at House of Morris and Harold knew him. Henry could deceive the outside world, but how could he deceive Harold?
