Dear Sweetheart Chapter 200 Dead âItâs not about money. She hates me for abandoning them,â Elijah said.
Naomi let out a derisive snort. âWhy would she hate you for that? Itâs normal for couples to get a divorce when the spark is gone in the marriage. Moreover, youâre her father, and Harry is her half-brother.â
âSheâs always been obstinate. Thereâs nothing I can do. My other daughter is busy filming abroad. I donât even know her exact address. Furthermore, I have no time to go and look for her,â said Elijah, at a loss for what to do.
He continued, âHarry canât wait any longer. Otherwise, I wouldnât have to come here and look for them.â
âToo bad my bone marrow isnât a match with Harryâs.â Naomi gazed at Harry sympathetically. Or else, Elijah wouldnât need to resort to seeking help from his ex-wifeâs daughter.
She pondered for a brief moment before suggesting to him, âUncle Elijah, why donât you just bring her to the hospital for the surgery since sheâs that intractable? You can give her some money as compensation afterward.â
âI donât think thatâs appropriate.â Elijah frowned.
âWhatâs wrong with that?â Naomi pursed her lips and continued, âSheâs your daughter and Harryâs sister, after all. If you donât feel comfortable doing that, I can find someone to do it for you instead.â
âLet me think about it.â
In spite of everything, Rayna was still his daughter, and Elijah felt that he indeed owed Rayna and his siblings a lot over the past few years.
Since he already said so, Naomi stopped persuading him and implied, âUncle Elijah, you know that my auntâs health is deteriorating. Harry is her only child, and she loves him dearly. She wouldnât want him to suffer this way. Besides, my fatherâs company needs him when he recovers later.â
âI know.â
The trio had dinner and chatted for quite some time in the restaurant.
Since it was getting late and Harry needed to stay in the hospital due to his sickness, Naomi sent them to the hospital and used her connections to arrange a private ward for Harry.
âNaomi, I thought you were doing fine there. Why did you return to Chanaea? You even changed your surname,â Elijah asked curiously. Since they had no business dealings in Chanaea, Elijah had never paid attention to Faymon Groupâs affairs.
âThe salary is high here. Besides, I could gain exposure by working in a big company. I merely changed my surname on the work application form for the sake of convenience,â Naomi replied.
âWhich company are you working in?â
âFaymon Group.â
âThis company is quite renowned. I heard that itâs the backbone of Norwal City.â Previously, Elijah had done some research and found out that Rayna was working there too. He did not expect Naomi to work in the same company as well.
âTimes are bad for the company now. All our subsidiary companies are currently facing crises. Because of that, our companyâs stocks are falling drastically. We also have a new leader now.â
As an experienced businessman, Elijah immediately grasped the main point in her words. âThere must be some family drama going on, right? How about you return with us? Your father misses you a lot.â
âIâm relieved that youâre there to help him, Uncle Elijah. Iâm still young, and I wish to stay here and learn more.â Naomi smiled faintly.
Elijah stopped persuading her at that.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital, and Naomi brought them to the private ward. Before she left, she noticed the familiar background on Harryâs phone screen. âHarry, do you like Kristie?â
âYou know her, too?â Harry turned to look at Naomi. He was a taciturn person, but his eyes lit up almost instantly when he heard Kristieâs name.
âYes. Sheâs my bossâ sister.â
âReally? Sheâs so pretty! Iâm here huge fan, and I watch all her shows. I heard that sheâs currently in Norwal City,â Harry exclaimed in excitement.
Naomi ruffled his short hair and beamed. âYes, Ms. Winton is now in Norwal City. Since you like her so much, Iâll bring you to meet her after youâve recovered.â
Harry became increasingly excited when he found out about the relationship between Naomi and Kristie. The passion in his eyes burned as he couldnât wait to meet Kristie right away.
âIâll definitely do my best to get better! Naomi, you must keep your word!â
âOf course.â
Subsequently, Harry watched reluctantly as Naomi left the ward.
As soon as Naomi got into her car, her phone rang.
It was a call from someone named âSellers.â Naomiâs gaze turned tender as soon as she saw the caller ID. Without hesitation, she answered the call and said sweetly, âHey, itâs been thirty-nine days since you last contacted me.â
âForgive me. I was busy. Weâve been apart for such a long time. Did you miss me?â The manâs voice sounded gentle and attractive.
As she drove steadily, she responded playfully, âWhy should I miss you?â
âYou didnât? I miss you every day, though. I wish you were by my side, especially when Iâm tired from work.â He chuckled lightly, his tone seductive.
His sweet nothings filled Naomiâs heart with happiness to the brim.
She fell head over heels for the man and was so obsessed with him that she could go to great lengths for him and would listen to everything he said.
After saying how much they missed each other, Naomi switched the topic and said, âJefferson has disappeared in Hallsbay. I think heâs suffering from another episode and was hidden by Ringo in one of the hospitals.â
âThe intervals between his attacks have become shorter by the day. He still has many things to settle. Itâs going to be a pity if he dies just like that,â the man lamented.
âItâs all your fault! You didnât tell me about your plan in advance and increased the dosage, disrupting our subsequent plans!â
Naomi roared on the other end of the line.
He let out a chuckle. âOkay. This is all my fault.â
Naomi snorted and continued reporting, âJefferson and Rayna stayed in Hallsbay for seven days, and he took her to his newly-
bought manor. Before Rayna left, she met up with Ringo.â
âManor? What manor?â
âHe bought a manor in Hallsbay when he went there previously and had someone plant a camellia garden there.â
âAsk someone to burn it down.â The manâs voice turned cold abruptly.
Naomi sneered. âThatâs because his mother likes camellia. Heâs smart enough. Heâs been hiding from Rayna all these years and only dares to appear before her again after getting the inheritance.â
As Naomi continued speaking, she became puzzled. âI donât get it. Thereâs nothing special about Rayna. Sheâs pretty ordinary, but even Curtis falls for her. What do men see in him? Is she that attractive?â
âIs she smarter than you?â asked the man.
âNo, of course. But she learns fast. After what happened to Curtis, she became the acting CEO of Faymon Group and helped the company overcome a few crises.â
Naomi paused briefly and mocked, âHowever, sheâs not cruel enough, clearly lacking experience in the business world. In the end, she got fooled by Curtis and ended up in a wretched state.â
The manâs interest was piqued. âI canât wait to meet her since youâve put it that way. I sent someone to attack Rayna so that I could see my dear brother suffer. To my surprise, she was so lucky that she escaped unscathed! What a lucky woman.â
Naomi said in annoyance, âSo it was you? I knew Sienna wouldnât be fearless enough to do that under her nephewâs nose. You should stop intervening. Leave this to me! Moreover, Jefferson is not the same as he was. It will be troublesome to deal with him once heâs triggered.â
The man said appeasingly, âOkay. I wonât interrupt anymore. Iâll head to Chanaea half a month later.â
âFor what?â
He let out a low chuckle. âI want to see you. Besides, I want to join in the fun.â
