Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 4231 - Bab 4240

Darcy was still baffled. She wanted to get to the bottom of this, but she did not know how to ask. Suddenly, the door opened, and Kaze came in with the lunchbox. Seeing Darcy awake on the bed, he felt relieved, and the worry visibly left his face. “Your wife is awake. I’ve just run some checks on her, and she should be fine. If the IV finishes, tell us and we’ll take it off her.” The nurse nodded at Kaze when he came in and explained Darcy’s situation. She noticed the man was handsome and caring towards his wife, a rare quality in a husband nowadays. “Thank you. I bought some extra stuff to thank all of you. It’s at the nurse station. Please help yourself.” Kaze was considerate of people’s feelings. He felt bad asking the nurses for help, so he thought of giving back. With an incentive now in play, the nurses would surely extend far greater politeness to Darcy. “You’re too kind.” The nurse smiled brightly. “It’s just a little something I got along the way. It’s some s

If what happened was considered normal, then what should Darcy do next? She approached Clarice with the idea of working with the Wittersons, but she still had not gotten the chance to meet Edmund.There had been no progress in her work, and tonight’s incident had nearly ruined her. It was dangerous, and now the pressure on her was suffocating.“If I knew things would be this hard, I shouldn’t have made the promise. At least I wouldn’t be stuck in this mess. The pressure is unbearable.” Her job was already on the line. Due to the lack of progress, her situation became worse, and she was forced into a passive position. If she could not find an opening soon, she would lose everything. This was a high-stakes gamble for her, and no matter if she won or lost, she would come out of it hurt. “No, I can’t just sit here and wait. I have to contact them and find a way to work with the Wittersons. As long as the deal is still possible, I can’t give up. I still have time.” Darcy quickly

“You’re putting me in a tough spot. Orders are orders. I have to carry them out,” Edmund casually said and sipped on his cup of tea again. He did not seem to care, but it was an act to lure Eobard into his plan. He was waiting for the man to up the offer. He had eyes on a piece of land that Eobard owned, the best of them all, and it was worth billions. The man had owned it for a long time and never allowed people to profit from it, which made a lot of people jealous. However, no one dared make a move because he owned most of the businesses there. Anyone who targeted Eobard would face retaliation and be forced into a difficult position, likely bankruptcy. Edmund had no plans to go against him head-on. He wanted the man to bow his head, beg a little, and offer up the land willingly.“Mr. Witterson, you’re the second most powerful man in Westeros. You can let this go if you want to. I know you can. You have to. As long as you help me, I’ll do anything you ask,” Eobard said. He

“I wonder how my son is. What actually happened back there? Why would he get into trouble with the chief of the Viper’s Den?” Eobard asked, trying to find out more about what actually happened. “We’re not sure about that either. When we arrived, Mr. Witterson’s niece, Clarice, was unconscious on the couch with another lady. It got complicated from there because Alvis continued to cause a scene, which eventually angered our chief.” Ryan simply came up with a lie to hide the details, but he still painted Alvis as the one who started it. Eobard’s expression darkened. He tried to find out more about the incident, but he did not have anyone to ask—until now. He thought of asking his friends, but even his friends were arrested. With the lack of details to proceed, he did not know what the right move was. However, now that he had more information from Ryan, he was actually shocked. He had to come up with a way to deal with the situation quickly and save his son. He could not afford

Dr. Everfield knew what Eobard was trying to achieve, hence his explanation. “This is just a misunderstanding. He doesn’t know who the person is. If Alvis knew any better, he would never have offended Mr. Witterson’s niece. He would apologize for sure. Now that his arm is broken, he will be crippled for life if he doesn’t receive proper treatment.” Eobard made himself look pitiful, trying to beg Dr. Everfield to treat his son. “If you can arrange for my son to get treated abroad, I’ll take care of everything else, and you will not be disappointed. I understand the stakes at risk, and you might have to face a lot of consequences, but I can give you the money for you to retire happily for the rest of your life.” He had to convince Dr. Everfield to help his son leave. “No. Don’t even think about it.” Dr. Everfield rejected the offer with a stern voice. There was no room for consideration. “Look at my son’s condition. If he doesn’t receive the treatment, he will be crippled, and
