Chapter 691
"Hessy! You're awake!"
Fortunately, Jessie soon noticed Hesper had woken up when she turned her head around. She hastily pressed the button nearby and examined Hesper intently. "Do you feel uncomfortable in any particular par of your body, or have you remembered anything from before?"
Hestia did not feel like she had gained any memories after she passed out, and her headache was normal, so she just shook her head.
Very soon, the doctor came over and gave Hestia a brief check-up. After ascertaining that there was nothing wrong with her, he signed her up for a series of tests. If all of the reports showed that she was fine, she could be discharged from the hospital at any time.
"Do you know how scared I was when you collapsed?" Jessie said, her eyes turning red around the rims. "If I didn't run into Rickard, I don't know how long it would take me to get you to the hospital." Hestia had been listening to Jessie expressionlessly, but when she heard Rickard's name, she froze.
"It was Rickard who brought me here?"
"Yes!"
Hestia felt a headache coming on when she heard Jessie's answer. "Did you see anything on Facebook or hear any news when I was unconscious... especially entertainment news?" Jessie did not know why Hestia suddenly asked her about this, so she just shook her head blankly.
"I already had my hands full taking care of you. I didn't have the time to play with my phone..."
Hestia let out a bitter smile inwardly and stretched her arm at Jessie. "Give me my phone. Also, get me two pills of nitroglycerin in case my heart can't handle it."
Jessie was stumped.
As soon as she opened Facebook, it was filled with yesterday's wedding and the photos of Rickard carrying her out of the hotel after the wedding, followed by striking "hot news" words. "Oh my goodness."
It was only now Jessie knew what Hestia was talking about. However, they did not come across any obstacles and did not see anyone taking pictures of them when they came out yesterday.
The wedding of Hestia and
Nathaniel had drawn the attention of
the media. While a few well-known
and respected media outlets wereel
granted permission to capture footage inside the wedding venue, smaller media outlets had to resort to finding covert locations outside to secretly take pictures.
Various speculations had already emerged on the internet. Hestia was shocked at first, but then she slowly became numb toward it. Gritting her teeth, she said, "What are the Tuckers and Duvals doing? How can they not solve a simple issue like this?"
Jessie had been wondering why Rickard left immediately after bringing Hestia over to the hospital. Now it seemed that he might have foreseen this happening.
Hestia became speechless after
d.ne
reading all of the comments. She opened her messaging app, and the first message that caught her attention was from her mother She had previously said that she would
keep it a secret from Elise, but now...
She reluctantly opened the message from Elise, feeling a bit frustrated as she hammered her head. Now she had no choice but to listen to her mother's nagging!
She also received a message from Charles as well. Hestia decided to put her conversation with her mother aside and reply to her father first.
Although this scandal was unintentional, they had gotten attention from the public. In other words, there were benefits that could be realized, and Nathaniel had achieved his goal, though not in a good way.
