Bernard nodded calmly and looked at Caleb, “You can go back now
Caleb respectfully replied ‘yes‘ and quickly turned to leave.

After Caleb left, Aidyn looked at the pale and skinny Bernard.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe remembered that four months ago, Mr. Laurence was in good spirits, but now he looked haggard.
The only person who could make Mr. Laurence look like this was probably Ms. Shultz.
They must have met in W City and had a conflict, so Mr. Laurence got so angry that his health
deteriorated.
Aidyn knew this very well, so he didn’t ask any more questions and just helped Bernard quickly get in
the car.
“Mr. Laurence, I’ll take you home, then ask Liana to come and check on your health.
The man in the car lifted his bloodshot eyes to look at Aidyn.

Bernard, who had exhausted all his strength, suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.
Hailey was startled: “What happened?”
Aidyn was also shocked, and he wanted to take Bernard to the hospital, but Bernard pushed him away.
He took the handkerchief handed to him by the bodyguard, gently wiped the corner of his mouth, and
asked Hailey with difficulty. “What’s the specific address?”
Hailey was still staring at the bloodstain on the ground, and only came back to her senses when she
heard his hoarse voice, “I don’t know…”
Bernard thought Hailey was unwilling to tell him, so he looked up with bloodshot eyes toward the
second floor of the villa, “Doesn’t she want to see me?”
Hailey followed his gaze, looked back, and shook her head, “She’s really not here…”
Bernard couldn’t believe it, giving Aidyn a look. Aidyn immediately apologized to Hailey, “Ms. Vulpe, I’m
