CEO Proposed to His Ex-wife 99 Times novel Chapter 532

By the evening, the bustling condition in the Hendersons' house finally came to an end in quiet.

As for Louie, she was suffering from an extreme headache, and had no choice but to ask her family doctor to bring her some pain killers.

The family doctor had been waiting upon Ryan and Tomas all along. The health condition of Ryan was not so positive, while that of Tomas was even worse.

Nevertheless, he still came and gave Louie the pain killers in the first place. Also, he told her, "Beware, my lady. You should keep away from these medicines as possible as you can, since they have negative side-effects on your kidney as well as your liver."

Offering a helpless smile, Louie answered, "I have no choice. I'm frustrated by too many things for the moment."

Before the pain killers could even take effect, Mrs. Henderson then came and knocked at her door, crying that she heard the summon of Jakub and asking Louie to help her find her find where he was.

Such condition had lasted for nearly a whole day.

In fact, Louie actually held respect for her, since it was the first time that she was being so persistent and vigorous.

She held Mrs. Henderson in her arms and whispered, "You're being over-hysteria, mom. Jakub would never rest in peace if he were to see you like this."

With her hands covering her face, Mrs. Henderson answered with a tearing voice, "No one has ever asked him to go! And I have never asked him to leave me!"

Without any choices, Louie chose to remain silent afterwards, since the more words she spoke, the more grieved her mother would seem to be.

Collapsing down to the ground, Mrs. Henderson cried, "So close! It is so close that he is going to have everything in this house as well as everything we have been preparing for him! Why? Why did he just left without greeting me even a simple goodbye?"

As Louie stood before Mrs. Henderson with her eyes looking down at her mother, tears shed from her eyes along her cheeks.

At the moment, not only had she gotten pain inside of her head, her eyes were also burning out of grievance.

Reaching out her hands, she tried to lift her mother up, while a second thought stopped her and pushed her arms back.

She said, "It's nothing wrong for you to cry, mom. Just cry until you feel better."

It was the unresolved melancholy stuck inside of Jakub that led him to the extremity.

Since there was nothing else she could do to raise her mother up, Louie turned around and walked by the window.

Those distant relatives who came around today had all gone. Louie was perceptive enough to discover that these groups held no actual mourning inside, and even some of them were gloating at the misfortune that occurred to Ryan under their mournful faces.

In fact, Louie had heard of their conversations down the floor. Baldly, some of them said that it was nothing use for the Henderson family to make that much of money, "Just look what they culminate in the end: there is no eventual happiness for them, let alone their own son who has just passed by. See, that's why everyone says money is nothing but a string of stupid figures!"

Indeed, the saying actually sounded reasonable. There was no use for them to strive so hard to make that much money, and if, by any chance, Jakub could ever be allowed to get rid of some of his burdens, if he had ever been told that he could live the way he liked, he would be most possibly still staying in this house safe and sound.

Given that the Henderson family had already been financially well-established in the hands of Ryan, there was actually no necessity for Jakub to ever expand the family business any further.

Jakub didn't have what it took to lead the family to the top, and the Henderson family was already rich enough to support his extravagant life.

Well, to ever ponder about such a thing further would only cause deeper melancholy.

Waiting by the window for a while later, footsteps were heard at the end of the corridor — Ryan was helped out of the room.

With a pause of hesitation, Louie walked up and checked him up. Although Ryan did not seem to be in good condition, he still seemed much better than Tomas.

At least, for Ryan, he was still able to walk, while for Tomas, he was completely bedridden.

With his lethargic movements, the rims of Ryan's eyes were overtly streaked with tear stains, which made his wrinkly face look even more crumpled.

Walking straight towards Ryan, Louie remained silent.

Casting her a glance, the old man simply raised and waved his hand, not seemingly in a mood to speak anything.

As she looked at Ryan's face, there was a slightly complicated feeling generated inside of her, and she couldn't tell where it actually came from.

Going downstairs, Ryan was supported by his servant, and walked towards the backyard.
