Chapter 221 Chat with Him
The man rumored to have died in a car accident was still alive?!
Cassie was shocked, but when she saw his pained expression, she cautiously asked, “Then, Madam Gray…”
“She has died in the car accident.”
Cassie knew that she had inadvertently touched the other party’s scar. She sighed deeply, and a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes. “I’m sorry. I talked too much.”
“It’s okay. After all, I’ve been gone for decades. I’ve already let it go.” Merle Gray’s expression softened in an instant.
“Uncle, since you’re still alive, why don’t you find him?”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Merle opened his mouth as if he was suffering. After a long while, he slowly said, “I was selfish because he was young. After I recovered, I heard that he was adopted by the Smith family. I wanted him to live a good life in the Smith family, so I hid my name and left San Francisco.”
“I’ve been paying attention to him all these years. Recently, I heard that Juwan has broken off with the Smith family, so I rushed over upon hearing the news.”
Cassie was angry at the mention of Juwan, but she still tried to calm down. “Uncle, Juwan has become particularly distorted these years. They are very competitive. He may not listen to you.”
Merle’s sorrowful and desperate eyes were looking into the distance, dimming his eyes. “It’s all my fault. I’m sorry. I made Juwan like this. If I hadn’t been greedy for wealth and wanted to live a better life with Juwan, he wouldn’t have…”
“If you can meet him, you can have a good talk. I think you are his father. You should persuade him.”
Cassie suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. The man in front of her was probably the one who could save Juwan.
“How about this? After I use your medicinal herbs to save him, I will bring you back to see him. At that time, everything will be resolved.”
Cassie smiled, took out a card, and handed it to Merle. “Although you said that you don’t need to pay, out of the rules, I will give it to you at the market price. There are 10 million dollars in this card, and it should be more than enough to buy these herbs.”
Merle refused, “No, no…”
“There’s nothing we can’t do, Uncle. If you can persuade Juwan to turn over a new leaf, 10 million dollars is nothing.”
In addition to being rich, Cassie was also wealthy. Ten million dollars was just a drop in the bucket for her. It would be best if she could do a favor at little cost.
After exchanging contact information with Merle, Javen returned to the mansion with Cassie.
Cassie cleaned up the restorative materials and took them to George’s villa.
When they arrived, George was coaxing Alice to eat, and he looked a little distressed.
This was also the first time Cassie saw George like this. She turned around to look at Javen, unable to help but exchange a smile.
As if he heard the laughter, George turned his head and saw Javen and Cassie coming over, and his face showed a trace of unnaturalness.
“It turns out that the president of the Wonderland Group is here to coax his girlfriend to dinner after work.”
Ever since the kidnapping incident, the relationship between Cassie and George had not worsened. On the contrary, they were even showing signs of merging.
Not to be outdone, George mocked, “Isn’t the President of Blue Group also skipping work to stay with her boyfriend?”
“Okay.” Cassie rolled her eyes and got to business. “Cut the crap. I’m ready to treat Alice. Is she mentally prepared?”
Alice immediately dodged the bowl George handed over and moved closer to Cassie. “Alright, I’m ready. George, I won’t drink this congee anymore.”
“Can’t you come later? We’re eating right now. If you come, she won’t be ready to eat.”
George took the bowl away. His face was pale, and his tone was full of resentment.
“You can’t blame me for this.” Cassie sighed. Forget it. She”d sent Buddha to his home. She immediately put on a stern face. “Alice, be good and eat, or I won’t treat you.”
Alice frowned and said, “I really can’t eat anymore. George raises me like a pig every day. Which little girl has two bowls of rice porridge?”
“You are different from other girls. Your body is weak. If you don’t eat well, you will lose weight.”
“But look at Cassie. She’s so skinny that she looks good.” Alice pointed at the nearby Cassie. She was tall and well-proportioned, and her casual clothes made her appear particularly excellent and noble.
“She is not healthy.”
“Who are you calling unhealthy?”
“Um.” Javen moved closer to Cassie’s ear and whispered, “I also feel you’re not healthy.”
Cassie pinched Javen’s flesh, gnashed her teeth, and said with a smile, “What are you talking about?”
Although Javen was in pain, his expression didn’t change. “I know, you are not skinny.”
Hearing the satisfying answer, Cassie finally relaxed her grip.
Alice had thought Cassie wouldn’t have to eat porridge when she arrived, but another person had forced her to eat!
After drinking the medicine, Alice rested for a while before Cassie began to treat her.
No one knew what they were doing in the room upstairs. Half an hour later, the door was opened with a creak, and Cassie walked out first.
George was a little worried and hurried forward to ask Cassie, “How is she?”
“Sorry, I…”
Before Cassie could finish her words, George’s face changed. “What did you say?”
“I said… it was very successful. She’s fine now.”
Cassie revealed a sly smile the moment she finished speaking.
“Success…”
George did not react for a moment. When he came to his senses, he heaved a sigh of relief and smiled like a child. “Success! Success!”
Looking at George, Cassie knew he would not be so happy even if the company made five billion dollars.
Because Alice was someone he cared about.
“But she is still resting now. You need to feed her more food to replenish her blood and qi. As for how she eats it, you have to think of a way.”
Cassie smirked and threw the problem at him.
Looking at Cassie’s appearance, Javen understood that she was deliberately messing with George.
“Got it.” George’s mind was in a mess when she thought of the follow-up nourishment. But after all, he raised a miniature rose, so he had to coax her obediently.
“Then we’ll go first. Don’t send me messages if you have something to do, and don’t even send me a message if you have nothing to do. I have other things to do.”
After saying that, Cassie directly pulled Javen and left.
“Don’t worry. There’s no special situation. I don’t want to see you in my life.” George knew Cassie’s character. She would seek revenge for the slightest grievance, and what she had just mentioned might make things difficult for him.
Seeing that George was unhappy, Cassie was secretly delighted and left decisively with Javen.
It was getting late. It was time to set off for San Francisco.
Cassie called Merle Gray and told him to go with her.
On a bright morning, the three boarded a plane and left.
