The atmosphere instantly turned extremely tense!
A second ago, Charleston was still full of energy and preparing to enter the cryo-chamber to hibernate. However, at this moment, he couldn’t even breathe and looked like he was in danger!
All of this happened so suddenly. It was too strange!
Everyone at present was from the Steele family. No other family was here, not even the Park family subordinates. Moreover, all the equipment had been tested countless times and there were no problems.
The Steeles’ top medical equipment and doctors were all back at Steele Castle in England. Therefore, they had to send Charleston back to England for immediate treatment.
Jordan and the others carried their grandfather to Zephyr Three.
There was a doctor on Zephyr Three, who was trying to stabilize Charleston.
“Curse… curse… curse…”
Charleston kept muttering this word as he lay there.
Jordan went to the washroom to vent his uneasiness and anger.
Victoria and Lauren went to him. Lauren pulled Jordan’s hand and said, “Hubby, don’t worry. Grandpa will definitely be fine.”
Victoria asked, “Hubby, why does Grandpa keep saying the word ‘curse’? What does he mean?”
Jordan let out a long sigh. “No one from the eight secret families has ever lived past 80 years old. Grandpa wanted to escape the curse by undergoing cryonics. Now, he must be thinking that he had triggered the curse by doing so.”
Victoria seemed to understand. “Grandpa believes he collapsed not because he’s sick, but because he’s cursed?”
Jordan nodded.
Lauren continued to pat Jordan’s back to comfort him. “I think the curse is too fantastical. Since Grandpa isn’t injured or ill, he will be fine.”
Jordan held Lauren’s hand and forced a smile. “Thank you. I hope so.”
Zephyr Three flew at high speed and soon arrived at Steele Castle.
By now, Steele Castle had already received the news. Everyone, including the doctors, nurses and even the gardeners and servants of the castle, had been mobilized. They stood at the entrance to greet them.
After the plane landed, the doctors immediately rushed over and pushed Charleston into the castle.
Jordan, Jesse and the other family members followed closely behind.
As they passed by a group of servants, a beautiful and voluptuous woman in a servant’s uniform approached Jordan. She asked anxiously, “Jordan, what’s wrong with Grandpa?”
It was none other than Jordan’s ex-wife, Hailey!
Jordan was already very upset. When he saw Hailey, who had betrayed him several times, he became even angrier. “Why are you still here? Get lost!”
With that, he ignored Hailey and continued to follow his grandfather.
