The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 2128

Charles seemed quite satisfied.

"Okay. Just spread the news and wait. Also, please dismiss some of the security guards. I don't want to be guarded by so many people."

"But... What about your safety? If anything bad happens to you, Madam will kill me," David said in fear.

Charles glanced at David. 'I haven't seen you in a few days, and yet you seem wiser, ' he thought to himself.

David felt a chill run down his spine.

"Got it." Those who are mindful of the time are wise, and David was that type of person. He merely nodded his head in agreement.

The next day

The Shining company held a press conference where its spokesman announced that Charles, the president of the company, had been hospitalized due to a car accident. Everyone went berserk. David also announced that Charles was about to wake up in a few days.

This news shocked everyone.

Everyone, including their own employees, was quite suspicious of the actual veracity of this piece of news.

Soon, reports flooded the company where everyone was asked question after question.

In the hotel

Damian was still sleeping on the bed. He didn't sleep well last night. He tossed and turned until it was late at night.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door followed by a loud noise.

Damian was woken up. When he opened the door, he was still a bit sleepy. He jolted awake when he saw Duke standing in front of him, looking anxious.

"What's wrong? You're so rude. I'm sleeping!" Damian yawned then turned to head back to bed. He still wanted to get more sleep.

"Something's wrong," Duke hurriedly shouted as he grabbed Damian's arm.

Damian stopped, looking at Duke in confusion. "What happened?" he asked in concern.

"You don't know yet?" Duke said impatiently. He continued, "The Shining company held a press conference. They announced that Charles was in a car accident. Every TV station and magazine is reporting the news right now."

"Well, I sent you a message last night, right?" As soon as Damian finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. He widened his eyes and asked, "What? It's being reported everywhere? Rob is a decisive man, isn't he? I still haven't decided on what I'm going to do, but he's already taking action."

"Rob? What's wrong with you? The press conference was held by the PR Department of the Shining company. The company announced it. It has nothing to do with Rob." Duke looked at his cousin with disappointment.

Damian was startled by the news. Then he realized something was wrong. "Do you mean the news was leaked by the company itself? Why?"

"I don't know. But they said Charles was due to wake up soon," Duke added.

'Rob said that Charles wouldn't wake up soon. But what is going on now?

Was the news false?' thought Damian.

Duke could tell that Damian didn't know anything about this based on his reaction. He then continued, "You probably thought the accident wouldn't be good for the company, but I guess their PR team is good. Not only are they not experiencing any problems right now, but their stocks are also stable."

Damian didn't say anything since he didn't really care about the Shining company. All he cared about was what Sheryl would do if Charles woke up.
