Lara walked over and sat beside Edward. “Did you see Eugene?” When he noticed some movements beside him, Edward was stunned for a moment. He soon reacted, nodded and replied, “I did.”
Then, she asked, ‘How is he?” He answered, “Not very good. It seems that he has experienced something painful. His face is haggard and is still in a coma.”
Immediately, Lara was overjoyed when she heard his words, but she still pretended to sigh. “We were always worried that he would turn against us, but we definitely didn’t expect him to fall like this.”
Edward also sighed in his heart. Yes, I always thought that there would be a real contest between us, so how could he topple over so easily? This felt really bad.
It was grief-strickening, but it was not really. either. After all, they were not like those families who had a strong father-son relationship. If he were to say that he was not sad at all, though, it was not the case either. In fact, he felt empty in his heart for some reason, as if he couldn’t accept what had happened to Eugene.
When he did not speak further, she asked, “Then, what do we do next? We still need to look for Dad so that we can introduce a leader to the company as soon as possible.”
Edward had still lacked interest even after hearing Lara’s proposal. “We should just wait. What if Eugene turns out to be okay?”
Lara began to persuade Edward, “I know that he is your son. No matter what you say, I know that you are still distressed about what happened to him, but think about it-Eugene’s illness is definitely not something insignificant, otherwise it is impossible for the doctors to stop us from visiting. So, even if he can recover, we can’t be certain how long it would take for him to even get better.
