Eddie saw the gossip on the entertainment headlines on his way and learned that it was Cheyenne who saved his sister in time that allowed Kate to have a chance at life. He also knew that she entrusted him with the follow-up because she was injured last night.
Cheyenne was able to make such careful arrangements while injured, showing her dedication.
In this way, the Zamora family owed her two favors again.
He was actually eager to see how Cheyenne’s injuries were, but he couldn’t leave Kate’s side for now. He could only wait for a suitable time to visit Cheyenne later.
Cheyenne was able to leave at ease because she believed that Eddie’s medical skills, though not as good as hers, were better than most, and he could handle treating Kate without a problem.
Besides, Leandro was also there.
Master Glenn could only watch as his just-awakened wife was pushed into various departments for examinations, feeling helpless as he waited outside.
Just when his anxiety was overwhelming, his phone in his pocket started vibrating again.
This was the second time that person left him a message after Sasha disappeared, Glenn couldn’t wait to open the message and read it upon seeing the familiar number.
The message contained only three words – [Blue ringed serpent]
Immediately, Master Glenn’s sharp eyebrows furrowed. What does this mean?
That person wouldn’t send this without reason, so this Blue ringed serpent might represent some kind of information.
Master Glenn googled Blue ringed serpent and found, [Blue ringed serpent, a species unique to Dragon Serpent Isle, containing potent venom within its body.]
“Dragon Serpent Isle… how could it be that?”
He definitely remembered that place!
That was where Gregory was buried years ago!
If he had only suspected that the guy had returned before, it wasn’t until now that Master Glenn dared to be certain. Sam had returned!
Disappearing for many years, he resurfaced and abducted his daughter, showing just how deep Sam’s hatred towards him was.
Bitterly smiling, Glenn put away his phone, his gaze fixed on the bright sunlight outside the window, which appeared as a glaring white light before his eyes.
However, the man’s gaze became even more determined and sharp under his suit, his hands tightly clenched into fists.
No matter how dangerous that place was, as long as his daughter was there, he must go!
The next day, the persistent autumn rain seemed to hint at a certain departure, with the rains falling from the eaves.
Falling onto the black umbrella, they quickly turned into small streams flowing down to the ground, becoming tiny strands among thousands of rivers.
The cold wind blew, and the man instinctively tightened his collar, feeling a chill all over his body.
The assistant standing behind him cautiously glanced at their CEO, feeling that Master Glenn had lost a lot of weight recently. The suit, which used to fit well, now seemed somewhat empty on him.
It had only been a few days since his wife and daughter had an accident, and Master Glenn had turned himself into his current appearance, truly heartbreaking.
“Mr. Weaver, I know you have been feeling down lately, but you must take care of yourself. Your wife and daughter… they still need you. What would they do if you collapsed?”
The assistant knew that Mr. Weaver’s wife and Sasha were taboo subjects in the CEO’s heart. Every mention of them would bring him more grief.
But there was no other way, what had happened had happened, and people had to learn to look forward.
Moreover, only his wife and Sasha could shake the CEO’s resolve. Though mentioning the mother and daughter would cause the CEO more pain, the more painful the wound, the more resolute and tenacious their CEO would become.
As soon as the assistant mentioned his wife and daughter, Glenn’s expression changed, and he took a deep breath to regain his composure.
“I know, you go send out a notice now. I will hold a board meeting at ten o’clock this morning. I have something important to announce to everyone,” Glenn said decisively.
Upon hearing Master Glenn’s decision, the assistant suddenly felt a strong sense of unease.
“Sir, you…”
Could it be that, as he feared, the CEO wanted to relinquish his power, abandon the company’s business… Everything he had built up bit by bit with his own hands after leaving the Weaver family.
Now that he had finally made some progress, it would be too whimsical to just throw it all away.
Glenn’s attitude was firm, “I have decided to take a break. There’s no room for negotiation.”
“I see, that’s good…”
Just taking a break.
As this thought settled, the assistant perceived another hidden meaning in Mr. Weaver’s words.
He didn’t mention when he would come back, so this board meeting was to prepare for the company’s future in case he didn’t return.
The assistant hesitated. In his view, it was utterly foolish for Glenn to give up his future for his wife.
What does a grown man need a wife for? Moreover, Mr. Weaver was young, wealthy, and handsome. Who knows how many women were charmed by him, offering themselves willingly.
It was a pity that over the years, besides his wife… he had never seen Mr. Weaver be intimate with any other woman.
The assistant couldn’t help but quietly question himself, “So true love does exist in this world. If it were me, I’m afraid I couldn’t do it to this extent.”
Giving up everything for love?
That was impossible!
As a poor student, he had studied for so many years, all to make a name for himself and earn big money one day.
“Yes, I understand. I will go make arrangements for the meeting,” the assistant replied.
“Mm.”
Glenn had not slept all night, and during this break, he closed his eyes for a moment.
But every time he closed his eyes, he would see his wife lying silently on the hospital bed, pale and lifeless, or his daughter tearfully calling him “Daddy.”
Suddenly, he woke up, drenched in sweat.
“Sasha, you must wait patiently for Daddy to come find you.”
At the same time, in a room in a small villa.
The adorable girl lying on the big white bed was also engulfed in endless nightmares at this moment. Beads of sweat the size of peas adorned her fair forehead, rolling down her finely sculpted face onto the collar of her nightgown, dampening it.
Her slightly chubby little hand gripped the bedsheets, and Sasha mumbled intermittently in her sleep.
“Dad… Mom… Hurry, run, the monster is coming… coming!”
The maid knocked on the door for a while when she came to deliver breakfast in the morning, but no one came to open it. So she had to find the spare key.
When she opened the door, she saw the little girl who should have been up and about already displaying an unusual flush on her cheeks, her sweat soaking her soft, long hair, clinging to her face and neck…
The maid reached out to feel her forehead and realized it was burning up.
The poor child was sick!
She glanced around the room and finally… noticed the open window. It turned out that the window had been left open last night, and there had been a torrential rainstorm in the middle of the night.
That’s why she caught a cold like this.
