Now that Chad was awake, it was more appropriate to let him deal with these matters.
Chad didn’t say anything after viewing the files.
He was the Nixon Group’s chairman of the board and the head of the Nixon family, one of the four most distinguished families in Eqitin. But in recent years, he had delegated most of the company affairs to Kevin.
Chad’s father was still alive. Though he lived in the south, to show him respect, Chad would always consult him when it came to family affairs.
Thus, it was unlikely that someone wanted him dead for personal gains.
Seeing Chad didn’t say anything, Kevin could only send more people to investigate.
But before that, he already transferred Chad to St. Peter's Hospital and arranged professional bodyguards to protect him.
Although the Nixon family didn’t breathe a word of this to anyone, since Chad had the accident in Eqitin during the daytime, many well-informed people still heard the news.
The McCarthy family, the Kawn family, and the Bissel family also learned about the accident.
They all sent people to visit Chad. Chad could shun others, but he couldn’t refuse to see these people.
Thus, he let them into his ward.
The Bissel family was not very close to the Nixon family. This time, they sent people over just out of courtesy.
But other than that, they also came to see if, as others said, Chad’s injury was really not serious.
After that, these people quickly went back.
But the Kawn family and the McCarthy family were not like this.
The McCarthy family was on good terms with the Nixon family because Archie and Max were very close. As for the Kawn family, the Old Mr. Kawn’s brother was married to a woman in the Nixon family. Though the other generations of the two families were not linked by marriage again, this kind of kinship still exists. Naturally, the Kawn family cared a lot about the Nixon family.
At this time, Wilson Kawn was sitting in the ward, looking at Chad in the hospital bed.
“Chad, I don’t think this car crash is an accident. Are you sure the cause of this crash is a mystery?”
Chad shook his head with resignation.
“I’ve sent people to look into this. It’s said that the driver had a few drinks in the morning and lost control of the truck while driving. That’s why the truck hit my car. The surveillance footage and the investigation of the driver have shown the same thing. I really didn’t find any flaws.”
Wilson slightly furrowed his brows.
“Why would anyone have liquor early in the morning? Don’t you find it weird?”
Chad laughed. “Who knows? Maybe it was his habit. No matter what, I survived it by fluke. I’m already grateful for that, so I don’t want to look into the cause.”
Wilson sensed that Chad didn’t want to talk about the accident any more, so he sensibly dropped the subject.
He sat by the bed for a while. When it was time for dinner, a nurse came in to deliver Chad’s meal.
Seeing that, Wilson bid goodbye to Chad and went out.
He then bumped into Archie and Natalia at the entrance of the hospital.
“Uncle, you’re here too!”
Natalia greeted him with a smile. Wilson reached out and tickled Oliver, who was in Natalia’s arms. Then, he said with a smile, “Yeah. I came to check on Chad. You’d better wait for some time before you go upstairs. He is having dinner. Perhaps he doesn’t want any visitors now.”
Natalia nodded.
Wilson then asked, “Are you busy lately? Come back to visit us more. Your aunt misses you a lot. She talks about you guys all the time.”
Natalia beamed and replied, “We’re all in Eqitin. If she misses me, she can come to my house. This way, she can help me look after the baby, too.”
Wilson chuckled. “Sure. I’ll tell her when I get back.”
It was late, and Wilson still had somewhere else to be. Thus, he only exchanged some pleasantries with the two before taking his leave.
Chad already finished his dinner when Natalia and Archie arrived at the ward.
Max was also there. He came to see his father after he got off work. But he came in through the back door, so he didn’t run into them.
Seeing them, Max stood up with a smiley face and called, “Archie, Natalia, you’re here.”
