He quickly called the doctor and it didn’t take long when the doctor came in, Martin slowly opened his eyes. The doctor checked Martin and he updated Jacob on his condition. Martin was still weak and he didn’t say anything. Jacob quickly dialed Stephanie’s number but he got no answer from her. He thought she had already gone to bed, so he called Barbara to update Martin’s condition.Barbara went to the kitchen after took a shower, she was hungry. She had a simple dinner and then she remembered that Stephanie looked tired, so she made a warm Almond milk for her. Barbara was about to go to see Stephanie when the phone rang. She was wondering who made a call this late. When she took the call, she was overjoyed hearing Jacob updating her about Martin’s condition.
Barbara gathered her strength to go to see Martin.

It surprised Nathan that she is considering raising her child directly and wants to take a break from the business, leaving the responsibility on Nathan and asking him to be the director and she will stay as inactive CEO, which will make her less involved in the company matters.“I promise you, I have your back! It's just I will work less, all the important matters, I will help you to handle that!” Stephanie convinced himNathan sighed, “Hmm, alright! But you need to promise me that this is temporary, okay?”
Martin was only able to stay around half an hour. He tried to hold himself by not thinking about Stephanie and Luke, but he failed. He then made an excuse and asked Jacob to stay for the meeting.
