Chapter 54 Jocelyn continued to refuse. “President Moore, there’s really no need. Davis is a senior of Lexie’s and mine. He doesn’t know which hospital Lexie had been admitted to and I promised Lexie to bring Senior Davis to the hospital!”
Skyler was being refused to the core. His expression was cold and ugly. Why could he not know? If Jocelyn wanted to take his car, she could have just told Davis the hospital and ward number!
The point was, she just did not want to accept his ride. When Skyler hit Jocelyn before, he definitely did not expect this situation. He just did not want Jocelyn to get any wayward thoughts, he did not want her to start hiding from him like some prey from a predator. Skyler felt a great discomfort in his heart. He looked at Jocelyn coldly and sneered. “Fine then!” Saying that, he immediately rolled up the windows and drove off. Jocelyn accidentally inhaled the car exhaust and choked, she could not hold herself back from coughing twice. Davis glanced at Jocelyn. “With how you so directly rejected President Moore, he’s going to be angry!” Jocelyn shook her head while getting into the front passenger seat. “You’re thinking too much. My actions suit him just fine!” Jocelyn did not say whatever was next, Skyler’s actions had probably been to test her. If she had gotten into his car, she might have gotten hit again and she did not have that thick of a skin.
Skyler had just gotten out of his car when Jocelyn and Davis reached the hospital.
When he saw Jocelyn and Davis, he ignored them and walked toward the inpatient section.
Davis was surprised. “President Moore also came to the hospital?” He had thought that Skyler was making a special trip when he mentioned sending Jocelyn to the hospital.
Jocelyn nodded. “His friend had also been hospitalized, right next door to Lexie!”
Davis nodded.
The two went upstairs. They pushed open the door of the ward and went in. Lexie still had a laptop in front of her, her lone hand working. Her brows shot up when she saw Jocelyn.
She still had not forgotten to work even at a time like this.
Lexie found it extremely hard to work with one hand. Before she even noticed the anomaly, she heard Jocelyn cough twice.
Lexie suddenly looked up and saw the familiar man at a glance. She was so shocked that she immediately jumped out of bed. Davis was stunned at her shooting up from the bed.

Lexie had shot up so suddenly that her laptop fell to the ground. Her hand had also hurt so bad that she inhaled sharply.
She stared as her laptop fell to the ground. Without even a thought, she immediately shouted, “My son!”
Jocelyn’s handsome face twitched. To lose her composure like this in front of someone she liked, Lexie was probably never going to forget it.
Amusement shot through Davis’s eyes. He glanced at Jocelyn. “By son, she means her laptop right?”
Jocelyn could not help laughing “Yeah, I’ve already gotten used to it!”
Davis was amused. “I didn’t even know back then that she had such a habit!”
Lexie’s face looked as red as it was annoyed. She glared at Jocelyn. Why had she not given her a heads up that Davis was coming over?
She had really lost her dignity now. Lexie sat down mutedly like a wilted eggplant. She still could not resist sneaking a glance at Davis.
Jocelyn walked over to her and helped picked up her laptop. Smiling, she said, “Stop sneaking looks, our senior came just to see you!” Lexie’s face turned even red as she glared at Jocelyn. “Stop spouting nonsense you!” Davis did not mind what was going on and walked over. He sat down by the hospital bed and looked at Lexie with a smile. “How did you end up breaking your bones?” Lexie blushed and answered, “I was thinking about something when I went down the stairs. I fell because I wasn’t paying attention!”
Jocelyn looked at her with a suppressed smile but did not call out on her lie.
Davis nodded. “Be careful when you go downstairs next time!”
Jocelyn put the computer aside, and Lexie’s eyes looked toward it from time to time.
Other than having been apart for three years, Davis had known Lexie for six years after all and had always had a good relationship with Jocelyn and Lexie from their sophomore to senior years.
He knew Lexie’s little movements very well. He smiled and said, “Jocelyn, bring her son over and have her take a look. Or else, she would be worried non-stop!”
Lexie’s face instantly turned red and her voice was as whiny as it was annoyed. “Davis!”
Davis chuckled. “Aren’t I right? Maybe I heard it wrong just now!”
Lexie blushed so hard she could not look at him and Jocelyn helped her out. “Davis, stop
teasing her. She might be cold but she can’t take teasing well!”
Davis nodded. “That is true! I remember back then when the others mentioned that she was cold, but I didn’t think so. Her face would turn red every time I said something. If I didn’t know she didn’t like me, I would have misunderstood!”
Lexie looked up instantly and glanced at him.
Davis smiled. “What’s wrong?”
Lexie immediately shook her head. “Nothing!”
Jocelyn’s expression was a little complicated. Davis… he had actually taken a jab at Lexie’s heart.
