The fear of losing her babies crept into Angeline's mind.
She bit her lip and yelled, "Send me to the hospital!"
Ned looked back at Angeline slumped against the door while clutching her stomach. Before he could react, the bodyguard lifted her into his arms and ran to the hospital.
Ned felt a tug at his heartstrings. He wanted to follow Angeline, but the bodyguards stopped him and mercilessly called the police in Ravorian.
"You're not going anywhere before the police arrive, Mr. Fletcher," the bodyguard said with a stoic face.
…
Sean had just landed at Lonla when he received the news about Angeline from Ravoria. Sadness quickly covered his expression.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lawson. It's our fault for not protecting Ms. Emmerson," the bodyguard said.
"Fortunately, both Ms. Emmerson and her babies are safe. The doctor said she would be hospitalized for a night and discharged tomorrow morning."
Sean turned to Taylor after hanging up the phone and said, "Taylor, bring the meetings forward. We're headed to Dmont after the meeting."
Taylor was startled but quickly replied, "Yes, sir!"
Sean had been busy with work on his flight from Dmont and hadn't stopped even after he landed. Now, he planned to fly back to Dmont. Sean truly had deep feelings for Angeline.
James knew of Angeline's incident the night it happened and had Gregory take her place for the conference instead.
It was already afternoon when Angeline arrived at the conference hall.
While Gregory was trying to find the research data from their lab, Angeline had no time to remove her coat. She quickly sat at Gregory's place to accurately report the data they found.
Gregory looked up and saw Angeline explaining her data calmly while taking off her coat. He compared the data he reviewed while listening to Angeline and found no mistakes.
"And with that, I will end the presentation for the data from our laboratory. Thank you."
