Chapter 7

Author: Nameless
"Yeah, yeah! Dr. Janet dotes on her little brother too! Even though she's still on medical leave, she comes in every day to check on him."

"I have no idea what kind of accident they were in. Dr. Janet and Ms. Watson were both injured, but they only had their wounds bandaged. I really wonder who was bold enough to mess with the Edwards family and the Wyndham Group..."

The nurses' conversation came to an abrupt halt.

My grandfather walked in from outside.

The moment he saw that I was awake, hi

    When the call connected, the screen flickered with patches of static. Then an image appeared of two women bound hand and foot, kneeling on the floor.As the camera zoomed in, I finally recognized them. They were Fiona and Janet.A man standing over them dumped a basin of cold water over their heads.Fiona and Janet jolted awake. The moment they saw me on the other side of the screen, they burst into tears."William, please! You have to save us! Tyler tricked us! We really had no idea he was sent by one of the Wyndham Group's competitors! He told us he'd been an orphan since childhood, but his parents didn't die in a car accident at all!"He's been lying to us this entire time! He even drugged us with some kind of hallucinogen that made us want to stay close to him without realizing what was happening! It was all part of his trap! All of it!"Janet had already been beaten until she was blind in one eye.As she cried, blood mixed with her tears and streamed down one side of her fa

    Just then, Tyler stepped forward and offered to cover all the expenses himself.He explained that for years, they had paid him a monthly salary of 12,000 dollars. He had also been living in their home, with them covering his food, clothing, and other expenses.Over the years, Tyler had managed to save a considerable amount of money, more than enough to cover their expenses.Fiona and Janet were so moved that they were practically in tears. They patted their chests and promised to repay him several times over for every penny he spent.A few days later, the three of them finally returned home.The first thing they did was storm into the company and confront the other shareholders.-When they saw me walking out of the boardroom, they froze in shock.Fiona was the first to recover.She frowned and demanded, "What are you doing here? Did you run to Grandpa and complain? Is that why the shareholders stripped me of my authority?"William, how could you do this? I admit I was wrong

"Kiddo, you're finally awake! I was worried sick! How are you feeling? Does anything still hurt? I had them use the best medicine available on you. You'll be back on your feet in no time!""Grandpa, I'm okay now." I pressed my lips together and managed a faint smile. "What about Xalia's ashes? What happened to them?""Don't worry, kiddo. I found a beautiful burial site in the best location and had Xalia laid to rest."

    "Besides, he's a victim too! How could he possibly frame William?!" Janet shrieked.Tyler, who had been too terrified by my grandfather's imposing presence to even move, immediately reacted when Janet called his name.He hurriedly wiped away his tears, ran over to my grandfather, and dropped to his knees before him."Mr. Randy, I wouldn't dare lie to you," he pleaded pitifully. "I really did hear the accident investigator say that back then. I swear I'm not lying! Mr. Randy, please believe me!"My grandfather stared at Tyler's tear-streaked face. Then he gave a cold, humorless smile. "The accident investigator said that? Then tell me. Which accident investigator said it?"I met every investigator who worked on that accident! I read every single one of their reports!"When the accident happened, not a single incoming call on my son's phone was answered! So tell me, how exactly did they cause the accident by answering a phone call?!"They crashed into the guardrail because the eng

    "Grandpa?!" Fiona and Janet cried out in unison.I weakly lifted my eyelids, hardly able to believe what I was seeing was real."Get away! You have no right to call him that!" I shouted.After years apart, my grandfather came rushing toward me, silhouetted against the light. He shrugged off his coat and wrapped it around my battered body before gathering me into his arms.The warmth that enveloped me gave me just enough strength to keep fighting for my life.I opened my mouth, but not a single word came out."Don't be afraid, kiddo. Grandpa's here. Grandpa's here. I'm sorry. I came too late."My eyes drifted half-closed.My grandfather tightened his hold on me and carefully lifted me from the ground. "What are you waiting for?! Call an ambulance!"Perhaps years of running his company and issuing orders had made command second nature to him.Yet Fiona actually stepped in front of him and blocked his path. "Grandpa, wait! William hid Xalia somewhere! He still hasn't told us whe

    "You like pretending so much, don't you? Then I'll give you plenty to pretend about today!" With that, Fiona scooped up the ashes mixed with dirt from the ground and moved to stuff them into my mouth.My scalp prickled as if an electric current had shot through me.I kicked wildly with both feet.I completely lost control and screamed at the top of my lungs, "Fiona! Just kill me! Kill me right now! I want to go be with my Xalia! I don't want you anymore! I don't want any of you anymore!"For some reason, Fiona's hand froze in midair.Perhaps she remembered how, many years ago, she had held my hand and sworn that she would give me the greatest happiness in the world.But now, I was struggling beneath her hands, desperately begging for death."Wait, Fiona!"Janet had stepped aside to make a call and find out what was happening. Now she hurried back toward us."Xalia might really be in trouble! I just called the hospital to confirm. William took Xalia out of the hospital 36 hours
