Chapter 526
Sure enough, his son was the most treasured. After he had skilfully sidestepped the issue at hand,
Felix began to worry about how to explain Joshuaâs absence during the upcoming New Yearâs
celebration. Ever since Joshua took over the company management, he had been swamped with
various domestic and international collaborations. Regardless of how busy he was, be always made it a
point to return home for the annual New Yearâs dinner. Given the current situation, it seemed joshua
would not make it back this year, and finding an acceptable excuse would be difficult.
Meanwhile, Cynthia had reached the airport. During her wait to board, she received a call from Sean,
whom she had given her number to facilitate communication. âHas the consent form been signed by a
family member?â he asked.
âItâs been signed. Iâm waiting for my flight now,â she replied.
âAlright.â
âIs Joshua awake?â Cynthia asked, her palm slightly tightening.
Sean replied calmly, âHeâs awake. However, his condition is not very stable. He lost consciousness
again after being awake for
a short while.â
âHow is he now?
âWe are still unsure about that. Weâll have to wait until his external injuries heal before we can conduct
a thorough examination,â Sean stated matterâofâfactly.
After assuring Sean that she would return as soon as possible, Cynthia ended the call. By the time she
got off the plane, it was already past nine in the evening. She hurried to the hospital where Joshua was
being treated, hoping that Sean could take Joshua to his place for further treatment as soon as
possible. However, when she reached the room where Joshua was supposed to be, it was empty. She
frantically checked all the nearby rooms but found no one.
She promptly dialed Seanâs number. The ringtone echoed from the hallway not far from her. As she
walked toward the sound, Sean appeared wearing casual clothes. He greeted her with a smile. âMs.
Yates, over here.â
âWhereâs Joshua?â Cynthia asked anxiously.
âHeâs been transferred. He should he nearly at my medical base by now,â Sean explained nonchalantly.
Cynthiaâs brows furrowed slightly, suspecting the veracity of his words. âThen why are you still here?â
âIsnât it obvious? Iâm waiting to collect the family consent form and.â Sean trailed off, his gaze filled with
an unspoken.
implication.
âAnd what?â Cynthia pressed.
âTo pass on a message from Jushua,â Sean drawled.
Cynthia did not respond, waiting for him to continue. Her intuition told her that Joshuaâs message would
not be pleasant, or rather, it would not be something she wanted to hear.
âHe wanted me to tell you that everything between the two of you is settled. All past
misunderstandings, mistrust, and debts. he owed you have been repaid when he saved your life,â Sean
said, one hand casually tucked into his pocket.
âThat canât be his words,â Cynthia responded instantly, without even considering i
Despite the fact that Joshua had wronged her, she knew his pride and dignity would not allow him to
say such things. If he truly had, he would no longer be the joshua she lanew.
âHe said it himself. Why couldnât it be passible?â Seanâs voice rose questioningly toward the end of his
statement.
âI want to see him and hear it from him,â Cynthia stated calmly.
She had reason to suspect that Sean, eager to bruker a deal with joshna, was deliberately trying to
sideline her. Given the current circumstances, she could not afford to stand idly by as Joshua
recovered, only to fall victim to his schemes again.
Sean continued to act as the messenger. âHe doesnât even want to see you. How can you hear it from
him?â
âAnd how would you prove that?â Cynthia retorted.
