Free Web NovelChapter 160: Chapter 160: Where Are You, Stuart?
Edie knew there was no point in asking any more questions and gave up, leaving Julian to give her a complete physical. Julian had a medicine bag with all sorts of advanced instruments in it. He gave Edie a blood test, and he took her blood pressure.
After Childe Yates’s kidnapping and almost drowning, she was covered in small wounds. Carol had already changed her clothes. Julian took a bottle of medicine out of his bag and asked Edie to put it on daily until it was healed.
Edie looked at Carol expressionless and did not look amused. Her blood pressure was high, according to the aneroid monitor, and it was an extremely high reading, which was not good for her body. Julian was concerned and looked in his bag, "Here is some more medication for you, Mrs. Yates. Take this and get a good night’s sleep. It will help you recover more quickly."
"I don’t want to take it," Edie refused to take the medication. She had a hunch that all of them knew the truth, and she was here all alone and knew nothing. Why should she take medicine?
"Mrs. Yates, wherever Master is, Master cares most about you and wants you to be well. How can Master his work if he has to worry about you?"
What Julian had said hit a soft spot in Edie’s heart, and Stuart risked everything to save her time and time again. So, as much as she didn’t want to, she took the medicine that Julian had given her. After receiving the medication, she looked at all the people in the room, "Since you won’t tell me the truth, you don’t have to stand here looking at me. Could you please leave my room?"
Julian and Mr. Sampson looked at each other, and knowing that she was upset, they agreed, "We will leave you alone for now, but please, Mrs. Yates get some rest."
When they left the room, Mr. Sampson hesitantly asked Julian, "Mr. Julian, is it really necessary for Mrs. Yates to not know about what happened?"
"At least for now," "Said Julian flatly. "It’s the Master’s command, and we have to do it, or the master will be upset." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Mr. Sampson sighed, "Okay."
Edie could hear them walking away, and when she couldn’t hear them anymore, she got out of bed, took out her phone and dialed Stuart’s number. They wouldn’t tell her the truth, so she wanted to find out from Stuart.
However, Stuart’s private phone number, which is always on, was shut down. Edie was still determined, and she dialed Childe Yates’ number, and it said, "The number you have dialed does not exist, please check it and dial again."
It was only a few hours ago that the two brothers were facing each other, and now they were gone! Edie sat beside her bed, and there was a blank expression on her face. She sat there motionless and began to feel sad, "He always called me his wife, and now I can’t reach him. I have no idea if he is hurt or what he is feeling. Where are you, Stuart?"
The more she thought about it, the more pain she felt. She was in so much agony. There was only one thought that remained in her mind, "Even if you don’t contact me, Stuart, please be safe."
The next day, Edie got up early. Julian had told her that the medicine was very effective. After taking it, she slept very soundly. She had no nightmares and was in good spirits the next morning. She changed her clothes and went downstairs. She went to the dining room, and she saw a table full of delicious food, but Stuart’s place was empty. The empty seat was like her empty heart.
After she married Stuart, he would eat breakfast with her no matter how busy he was. Edie sat down and barely ate anything. Mr. Sampson quickly noticed how her mood had changed and asked, "What are your plans for today, Mrs. Yates?"
"Mr. Sampson, could you please help me prepare the car. I am going back to film production." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
"You’d better rest for a few more days. You don’t need to rush back to work. Besides, it is not safe for you there."
"Unsafe?" Edie raised her eyebrows and looked at Mr. Sampson, "I’m just an infamous actress. How dangerous could it be? Besides, wasn’t Childe Yates only playing a game? Then he shouldn’t be bothering me again. I don’t have anything to do, but work."
Mr. Sampson choked on what he had said, and seeing that Edie had made up her mind, he said, "I’ll arrange the car for you right away." After breakfast, the car was waiting outside to take Edie. When she got into the car, she found that Ivan was the one who was in the driver’s seat.
Ivan greeted her, respectfully, "Would you like to know about Stuart’s business trip to Japan?" Ivan was ready to answer, but Edie’s own words came back a little stiffly, "I’m afraid I misunderstood, I don’t see the point because I will not get the truth."
Edie smiled scornfully and said, "It must have been a crucial business trip to have Stuart go to Japan so quickly that he didn’t even take his secretary with him?" Ivan’s face changed a little. He knew he couldn’t fool Edie, but what he didn’t realize is that she was starting to see things more clearly.
Ivan had been with Stuart for so long, "Japan is not the only L.N. headquarters. It also is the CEO’s home, and they’re also will be a secretary in charge of the corresponding work. I am in charge of this city, and I am helping the CEO take care of you."
Edie could tell that he was still lying to her, and her eyes grew dim. She turned her head and looked out the window and wouldn’t say another word. There was nothing but silence. The color drained from her face.
Everyone was lying to her, and they thought it was good for her, but what they didn’t know is that it only made her worry more. She just wanted to know what happened and if he was okay.
Ivan was relieved when he thought Edie had given up pursuing the matter, he heard the faint voice of Edie in the back seat, "When you talk to him, please tell him I’m worried."
