Floyd took Nicole back to the hotel and immediately called for a doctor.
Fortunately, Stanton Corporation was the major shareholder of this hotel, and there were also dedicated doctors in the hotel.
The doctor examined Nicole briefly. His complexion gradually improved.
However, to be on the safe side, the doctor took a blood sample to take it back for testing.
“Chairman Stanton, judging by Ms. Stanton’s current state, Ms. Stanton may be in a deep sleep because she had a mental breakdown. But this kind of sleep isn’t harmful, and it can allow her mind and body to rest. Let me take this blood sample back for testing first. I’ll notify you as soon as I get the results.”
Floyd nodded and sent him away with a solemn expression.
He was worried about his daughter and afraid of disturbing her rest, so he went to another room of the presidential suite to call Grant.
At this time, the sky was getting brighter. A light blue hue slowly tore away the darkness of the night sky.
The sun’s rays began to penetrate the clouds and shine gently on the earth.
All news channels were reporting about the earthquake.
At the moment, the death toll was 16, and the scene looked extremely deserted and tragic.
Many rescue workers, medical workers, and volunteers had gone to the disaster zone.
Floyd watched the news silently and seemed to have spotted Kai.
He thought, ‘Is that my ignorant son who’s also a clean freak?’
Kai ran to the ambulance with a child covered in mud on his back. The child’s face and body were also covered in mud.
At this moment, the boy did not seem to know what happened and looked very happy to be carried by Kai. He hugged Kai’s neck and showed his white baby teeth.
This scene was broadcasted on the news for a while.
Kai’s face was looking to the side, and he was covered in mud. However, his family could recognize his side profile at a glance.
That was why Floyd was particularly surprised.
Floyd thought, ‘Nah… Maybe it’s not Kai…’
Grant just happened to answer the phone.
“Dad, is everything going well?”
“Yes, it went well, but… What’s going on there? I think I saw Kai on the news. Is he so kind as to help out? It’s good enough that he didn’t go there and make trouble.”
Floyd asked his eldest son in doubt and thought that his eldest son was more reliable.
Grant paused before he replied, “Yeah, that’s our Lil K.”
Floyd exhaled slowly. Something suddenly flashed through his mind.
“By the way, I need to tell you something serious. Eric told me just now that my precious son-in-law is dead. Is that true?”
Grant was silent for a few seconds.
Floyd also sensed that something was wrong.
Grant sighed.
“Dad, Mr. Churchill confirmed that Clayton fell off from the cliff when that section of the boulder broke off. There were three other people with him at that time, and their bodies have been found. Only his body is missing…”
Floyd gasped. His face turned pale.
His body swayed, and he looked a little unstable.
Grant pursed his lips. “Dad, are you okay?”
Floyd took a deep breath, sat down slowly, lowered his voice, and became solemn.
“I’m fine.”
Grant said, “Eric’s people arrived just now. I also found some people to join the search, so we’ll have results soon. Dad, take care of Nicole and stay in the hotel first. I think she probably knows about this, and I hope that she can calm her emotions.”
No one wished for this to happen.
They all felt that their lives were on the right track.
Clayton was a very reliable person.
Floyd even wanted Clayton and Nicole to have their second child, but before Floyd could urge them, this accident happened.
This was a fatal blow to the Stanton family, especially Nicole.
