<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“It was my men who found her on a mountain several kilometers away from our location,” Sven replied. “At that time, she was severely injured and barely conscious, just clinging on to dear life. I immediately arranged for her to be taken to a trustworthy hospital. After the doctors examined her, they said that if she had been brought in anyter, she wouldn’t have survived.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing this, Cecilia felt that there was more to the matter than met the eye. “Did the doctor mention when she would wake up?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Sven shook his head.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“The doctor said that she would either wake up within a month or never wake up in her lifetime.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing the answer, Cecilia couldn’t help but sigh.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Her injury was probably sustainedst month, right?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Right.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“How did she manage to hold on until now?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Sven sighed as he exined, “When my men rushed over, they found her hiding in the mountains, surviving on wild nts. The doctor also mentioned that she must have possessed a strong will to live, which was why she held on for so long.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon hearing this, Cecilia gave a nod.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I want to go see her tonight.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements,” Sven responded.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After some thought, Cecilia asked, “What do you think about me telling Cassina about her situation?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Cassina is her biological daughter, so logically, she wouldn’t harm her. However, one can’t be certain if she has been corrupted by money and power,” Sven responded.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia had considered it, but she couldn’t discount the possibility that it wasn’t Cassina who harmed Bailey.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Are you confident you can protect Bailey?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Of course,” Sven responded without hesitation.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Good, I’ll let Cassina know when I get backter.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After she finished, Cecilia didn’t continue on that topic She turned to Sven and said, “Let’s have dinner together here today. I’ve prepared a lot of home–cooked food. Eating out all the time isn’t healthy for you.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Initially, Sven had thought to refuse, but when something came to mind, he agreed.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Alright.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecelia then led him inside.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon seeing the two about to return, Elliot was one step ahead of them.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Inside the dining room, all the dishes were already served.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel saw Elliot return and couldn’t help but ask him, “What did you hear?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Elliot was out of breath, taking a moment to rest on the stool before speaking. “I heard Mommy mentioning something about going to visit someone who’s sick.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Someone sick?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel wanted to ask more, but then Cecilia and the others came over.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He hadn’t expected Sven to join them as well.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Charlotte hadn’t expected Sven toe over for dinner, especially considering she had specifically invited him over just a few days ago only to be coldly rejected.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Due to that, she was convinced that Sven had no interest in her, so she stopped conversing with him.</font></font>
Upon seeing Svening over for a meal, she felt a sense of difort.
When Lucille and the boss invite him for a meal, hees without hesitation. But when I extended the invitation, was met with his refusal. It’s clear that he does not like me, or he might even despise me.
Charlotte intentionally seated herself in a corner.
What she couldn’t believe was that Sven had actually chosen to sit next to her.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
Before she could even react, he said, “I genuinely had something onst time, consider this as my apology. Also, I’m ustomed to dining alone when I’m out.”
It took a while before Charlotte could regain her senses
“Are you talking to me?”
Sven didn’t answer.
Charlotte felt somewhat ttered inside, but on the surface, she remainedposed.
“It’s alright. I understand that everyone has their own temperament. I’m not upset. You don’t need to apologize.”
She’s not upset?
Skepticism filled Sven’s eyes.
She certainly did look angry before this. Could it be that I misjudged her reaction?
