She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1136

Chapter 1136 Revealing Information

Time flew by and another month had passed. It was now May, and the clear blue skies every day gave a sense of endless hope. Eve would occasionally send updates from the USA, saying that her treatment was going well and that the professor had come up with a plan to control her genetic disease within healthy limits for normal living. This was already a blessing for Eve.

Along with Eve's good news came a message from Lauren.

"Arthur, are you sure?" Lucia asked skeptically when Arthur relayed Lauren's message.

"Absolutely sure. Libby is in Mexico right now," Arthur nodded.

"I guess she knows now too. Did Lauren find out anything?" Lucia sympathized with Libby as a mother who personally went to investigate whether her son was still alive in a foreign country, which required immense courage and determination.

"Lauren is keeping the locals quiet for now and hasn't told Libby the truth yet. We'll have to discuss it first before we say anything," Arthur admitted that Lauren was very meticulous in handling things.

"I think... we should tell Miles," Lucia frowned slightly as she carefully considered what to do about Libby's situation, feeling sorry for her plight as an aimless woman searching without direction, "Otherwise, it would be like cutting off both their hopes at once."

"A false hope can hurt more than no hope at all. Let us handle this bad guy ourselves since Libby won't last much longer if she continues wandering around aimlessly like this anyway. Besides, she isn't weak-willed since she dared go all the way to Mexico herself. I'm sure she has prepared herself mentally," Lucia said firmly, "Moreover, let's inform Miles too."

That night after receiving Lucia's call, Miles didn't even know when he hung up his phone. His mobile slipped from his hand long ago while he sat on the couch motionless until he finally digested everything after some time had passed.

No wonder why Libby contacted him less frequently these days. Every conversation only consisted of brief reports of safety. It turned out that she went looking for their son...

Miles felt an excruciating pain deep inside him; he almost didn't dare contact his wife through his phone because he feared losing any remaining hope altogether after making this call.

But upon second thought, even his wife had the courage to personally go to Mexico and verify if their son was still alive. She had more backbone than he did! Miles picked up his phone.

Trembling slightly, Miles pressed the phone number and felt a mix of emotions as he waited for his wife to answer the call.

"Hello, Miles, why are you calling at this time?" Libby's voice sounded very calm.

"Libby, where are you now?" Miles asked with great complexity.

Libby remained silent for a while before saying, "Of course I am in the hospital."

Miles hung his head and let out a deep sigh. "Don't lie to me. Did you go to Mexico?"

Another wave of dead silence followed, and then Libby's mournful voice sounded, "You know now..."
