When she left, He went crazy
Chapter 90 He Should Have Someone He Likes
In the middle of the night, I was sleeping by the bedside when it seemed like dry fingers were stroking my face.
“You full, you believe anyone who deceives you.”
I pushed away that hand and turned in the other direction, then reacted belatedly. I was taking care of a patient, suddenly raising my head and asking in confusion, “What did you just say. What is wrong?”
All I saw were Christopher’s closed eyes and his steady breathing. Perhaps I was just hallucinating.
Without much thought, I just assumed I was startled by today’s experiences, feeling a bit nervous, and drifted back to sleep in a daze.
Early the next morning, Donald deliberately brought breakfast from a restaurant, including cereals, milk, fried eggs, bacon, toast, and waffles, a wide variety.
All of these were to Christopher’s taste.
However, Christopher only took a few bites before working.
Donald not only brought breakfast but also a stack of pending documents. Being the president of The Valence Group wasn’t easy.
As I ate breakfast, I occasionally glanced over at Christopher.
The warm winter sun streamed in, casting a soft glow over Christopher, highlighting his perfect profile with his high nose bridge supporting a pair of glasses, and his slightly closed thin lips,
It had to be said, Christopher was quite pleasing to the eye in terms of appearance.
It would be even better if he wasn’t a scumbag.
After finishing breakfast, Barry called to ask me when it would be suitable to send the fingerprint identification report.
I immediately responded, “Now, at Riverside Garden.”
Although I had showered last night in the hospital, I hadn’t changed my clothes and was feeling quite uncomfortable. It was a good time to go back, take another shower, and change.
After hanging up the phone, Christopher glanced over. “Leaving again?”
“I’ll be back.” I smiled gently, “I’ll have a surprise for you when I return.”
This way, no matter how Evelyn might stir things up later, I wouldn’t have to worry anymore,
The day after tomorrow, Evelyn would have to leave, even if she didn’t want to.
Once Evelyn was sent off, things between me and Christopher could finally come to an end.

Christopher raised an eyebrow. “What surprise?”
“You’ll find out when I get back.”
With that, I quickly left the hospital.”
Christopher had just taken his medication in the morning, and with Donald still in the ward, there was nothing to worry about.
As I stood by the roadside, waiting for an Uber to arrive, a black Bentley slowly pulled up in front of me.
With the experience from yesterday, I almost instinctively wanted to run!
“Miss Royston.” The window rolled down, revealing a woman dressed in a sleek and mature manner, her lipstick a shade darker, exuding a calm and mature aura. She looked to be around thirty.
I was taken aback. “Who are you, and how do you know who I am?”
“I’m Abigail Lewis, Cecil Lewis’s sister.”
Abigail Lewis smiled faintly. “There’s something I need to talk to you about in private.”
Abigail’s features faintly resembled Cecil’s.
However, I had never heard Cecil mention his sister before.
I was now cautious about getting into any car. “You and him…”
“He always wears a red string on his hand, never taking it off from babyhood to adulthood, not even when bathing. You should have been on the phone with him before the incident yesterday.”
Abigail effortlessly revealed this information.
Without saying anything more, I got into the car on my own accord.
Once inside, Abigail simply said, “Take Miss Royston to there.”
“As long as it’s not about murder and dismemberment,” I remarked.
The car weaved through the bustling streets and eventually entered a quiet neighborhood similar to the Valence family’s.
This was also a renowned wealthy area in Jacquar City.
The Valence family’s wealth was well–known to all.
However, the Patel family seemed to be more low–key, and the extent of the gap between them and the Valence family
was unknownL
The car came to a stop in front of a grand mansion, and the driver got out first to open the door for them.

Chapter 90 He Should Have Someone He Likes
Abigail, in her black heels, led me through the gate with a straight posture, showing the refinement she had. experienced since babyhood.
She said softly, “In fact, I brought you here today to ask for a favor.”
“What favor?”
“You’ll see when you get there.”
At this, I felt puzzled but refrained from further questions.
I was not very curious.
However, when Abigail led me through the garden and they glimpsed the scene inside the hall through a glass door, I was momentarily stunned.
Cecil was kneeling on the floor, his back displaying shocking wounds, yet his face showed no signs of pain or anger, just calmness.
Middle–aged socialite Charlotte Brown was increasingly furious, another lash striking Cecil. “Cecil, don’t think I can’t do anything to you now! If you die, I can easily adopt someone else that still can inherit the Patel family!”
“Then go ahead,” Cecil remained motionless, gritting his teeth, his tone respectful yet contemptuous.
I felt a twinge in my back, wanting to go over, but Abigail stopped me, leaving me to ask awkwardly. “Is that his
mother?
But I remembered Cecil telling her that his mother had passed away!
“She is my mother.”
Abigail seemed accustomed to this scene, as composed as Cecil, her voice as flat as his. “He hasn’t used any of the Patel family’s power for years, until last night, when he asked my mother for help and led people to give Viktor and his group a good lesson.”
“What?” I was suddenly puzzled.
After being tied up the night before, I had no further contact with Cecil.
Cecil shouldn’t have known.
“We’ve been out of trouble for many years in the Patel family, but with what he did last night, he’s back in trouble
