“What did you say?”
“If you dare to pull out your gun, if he doesn’t die, I will not gonna to let him go.” Toby Cage avoided his shoulders, he got up of bed and went to pour himself a water. “It’s not a pity for such a worthless son to die.”
This was stimulating Sarah North’s unstable emotions.
“I’m going to kill you!” Sarah North broke away from Tom Parker and hit Toby Cage
Toby Cage was already injured and was hit so hard by Sarah North that he hit the wall behind him.
“Hmm!” Toby Cage snorted and bent over slightly in pain, looked a little pale and the cups in his hands fell to the ground. The light-colored clothes on the shoulders were immediately stained with blood.
“Calm down!” Tom Parker shouted then held Sarah North.
“I don’t want to calm down! I just want my son!” Sarah North was crying.
Toby Cage’s driver came in and saw the chaos and immediately held Toby Cage. “Master Cage, are you all right?”
“Veronica.” Toby Cage called softly and then fell.
“Master Cage!”
No matter how terrible things happened the night before how serious the situation was, the following day, they had a breakfast altogether as a family.
Their six little ones, Nick Cage and Veronica Parker.
It looked the same as usual.
As for the subtlety in the ambiance, the cheerful little ones they just cannot felt it.
Veronica Parker poked the eggs on the plate, absent-mindedly.
“Although I didn’t watch Nick Cage, I was trying to figure out what’s on his mind.” She thought.
Nick Cage didn’t show up last night. When she got up in the morning, she was the only one in bed.
Veronica Parker was physically and mentally exhausted again.
Whether she shows up in front of Nick Cage, he won’t let her go.
Driving six little ones to school in Nick Cage’s car, he watched them go in, smiled and waved to them. Nick Cage was driving the six little ones to school. He watched them went in, smiled and waved good bye.
Standing next to Nick Cage, was an prestigious family.
Veronica Parker said nothing and turned to walk to the side of the road.
However, before the she reached the side of the road, she was caught by the someone in her wrist.
Veronica Parker’s face frowned slightly and the person was strongly dragged into the car by Nick Cage. When he got to the car, Veronica Parker broke free from his hand and said, “Let me go!”
“The child was not here and the car is not yet on.” Nick Cage let go of her and stared at her with his sharp black eyes.
Veronica Parker listened to his tone as if he was not angry about what happened last night, as if nothing had happened.
Is it difficult for him to forgets after he slept?
“It’s normal, isn’t it? Peter was not here so there is no need to maintain anything.” Veronica Parker looked out the window.
Both of them knew it well so why should they still talk about it?
“They must always be here and if they didn’t want to, they had to pretend!” Nick Cage meant was no matter how hard it was, you had to stay with him.
Veronica Parker pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.
Pretending?
This kind of ‘pretending’ was very tiring.
Nick Cage was also right, she had to ‘pretend’, pretending that she did not know what kind of role she was playing.
But at the moment, the six little ones were not here, so what were you pretending to be?
When I got to the TV station, Veronica Parker got off hurriedly and didn’t even say bid good bye.
Nick Cage’s sharp black eyes stared at the her while she was walking away, his face cold and calm, very unpleasant.
Veronica Parker was out of sight when she entered the elevator. Nick Cage withdrew his gaze, his eyes were deep and frightening.
No matter how unhappy she is, he won’t never let her go.
Veronica Parker came into the office then threw her backpack aside and sat on the coach looked trance-like.
The look on his face was at loss.
There was a knocked on the door then Lucy Underwood came in and said, “Host Parker, someone is looking for you.”
Veronica Parker walked into the reception room and was stunned to see the man inside. She was familiar with it and said, “Are you … Toby Cage’s driver? What are you doing here?”
“Miss Parker, I don’t have any idea how to come to you. Master Cage is in a coma and he is in critical condition.”
“Critical condition?” Veronica Parker was surprised. There was nothing wrong with his voice when he called him last night. Was he holding it back all the time? Was he really uncomfortable?
“It’s not Elton Parker’s parents who were messing around, they’re all fighting him! If you only knew Master Cage is physically injured. What happened? He hit hard himself straight to the wall. The wound was open again. He lost a lot of blood last night and then he had a fever. He was raving all night. The fever went down at dawn but he still didn’t wake up. I had no choice but to come to you.”
Elton Parker was dead? Veronica Parker was worried about Toby Cage and asked, “What is his current situation.” Was it bad?”
“Yes! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come here.” the driver said.
Veronica Parker believed that she didn’t know the driver very well, and if Toby Cage wasn’t in critical condition, he wouldn’t come to her.
“I’ll be going to the hospital now.” Veronica Parker turned around and then walked away.
When she got to the car, Veronica Parker was anxious.
I hope that Toby Cage had nothing to do with this.
But why did Sarah North went to the hospital to make trouble with Toby Cage?
“How did Elton Parker died? Why did it had to do with Toby Cage?” Veronica Parker asked.
The driver said, “Of course it’s none of Master Cage’s business. Elton Parker died suddenly after drinking in a bar. It has been investigated and it was ruled out as murder. Unexpectedly, his parents still came to make trouble, they were saying that Master Cage killed their son. Later on, Master Cage fainted and the man said that even if Master Cage didn’t kill him, it was to save you and caused a failure of Elton Parker’s plan then encouraged him otherwise he would not had died suddenly.”
“That was absurd!”
“That’s right! It’s very unreasonable.”
There was a burst of panic in Veronica Parker’s heart.
She never thought she would have heard such a hideous motive.
Elton Parker killed him then suddenly died. This was incredible!
Upon entering the ward, Toby Cage lay in bed still unconscious. The doctor keeps checking his body and taking his temperature.
Veronica Parker looked at the Toby Cage’s pale body and asked anxiously, “How’s it going, Doctor? Is it too bad? Why is he in a coma?”
“Everything in his body is normal. It is a coma caused by a high fever plus lots of blood lost. Let’s wait and see.” the doctor said.
Right after the doctor left, Veronica Parker went to the bedside and looked at Toby Cage, who showed no sign of waking up.
“That’s what the doctor said two hours ago and I am still saying it. I am sure the doctors can do it.” the driver said.
“You may take a walk and get fresh air first. I’ll stay here.” Veronica Parker said.
“Okay Miss Parker. Just call me if you need anything. I’ll be right outside.” The driver said that and went out.
Veronica Parker sat down in the bedside chair, looked at Toby Cage’s face and said, “Aren’t you childish?” Pretending to be in a coma!”
Toby Cage still didn’t move.
“If you don’t wake up, I’ll go!”
Toby Cage raised his eyelids slowly and looked at her, his ears reddened slightly and said weakly, “I was awake before you came in.”
“Elton Parker’s parents were gone?” Veronica Parker asked.
“It should be.”
“Sorry, if it wasn’t for me you wouldn’t had been shot. It would have lessened if you hadn’t been approached by Elton Parker’s parents. I’m really sorry.”
“Do you need to tell to me about this? It was difficult to turn a blind eye to the situation that will protect you? Veronica, do you think I can do that?” Toby Cage asked.
