Chapter 595
Chapter 595
After Stefan returned to Mimar City, he found out that Wendy had been absent from work for several days.
He inquired about the situation, and it turned out that Wendy’s butler, Rayburn fell and injured himself.
Rayburn could be said to be Wendy’s only relative in this world. Although there were still many relatives related to her by blood, they were all like vultures, eyeing the vast assets of the Giradia Group. Only Rayburn treated Wendy wholeheartedly and saw her like a daughter.
Stefan brought some supplements and went directly to the door.
After seeing Stefan, Wendy asked coldly, “What are you doing here?”
Stefan answered, “It’s not right to burn bridges after crossing the river like this! Lately, your attitude towards me has been getting worse and worse. Have I done something to offend you?”
Wendy snorted coldly, and said, “I just don’t like you here. Get out!”
Stefan couldn’t be bothered with this woman who seemed to be going through early menopause, and went straight to the room to check on Rayburn.
For a rich woman like Wendy, a private doctor was a matter of course.
At this moment, the doctor was checking Rayburn’s health.
“The old man is in good health. He can definitely live a long life. Don’t worry.” The doctor was a man in his fifties, and he spoke gently.
Stefan looked at him seriously and asked, “Are you serious?”
The doctor nodded and did not answer.
Wendy said coldly, “Stefan, what do you mean. It sounds like you’re hoping that something would happen to Rayburn, right?”
Rayburn hurriedly said, “Ms. Wendy, how can you talk to our guests like this? Mr. Evans cares about me, so don’t talk nonsense…”
Wendy finally stopped and didn’t give Stefan a cold look.
After Wendy went to make coffee for Stefan, he said to Rayburn, “Did you tell the doctor to lie?”
Rayburn’s face stiffened, and he said, “Can you tell?”
“Listen! My ears are much stronger than ordinary people’s. I can clearly hear the subtle sounds from the internal organs of a healthy person and a sick person. Your organs are diseased and unhealthy,” Stefan said with a solemn expression.
“Cancer…” Rayburn sighed and said in a low voice.
Stefan nodded.
No wonder Rayburn asked the doctor to hide the condition from Wendy. It turned out that it was so serious.
Stefan answered, “There is nothing I can do here. Cancer has always been a medical problem. However, it’s impossible to hide this kind of thing forever. When are you going to tell Wendy?”
Rayburn shook his head and said, “Ms. Wendy only has me as a relative now. I am afraid that she will not be able to bear such a blow. At least, I have to wait until she has new support!”
“Stefan felt that it was really far away. Wendy was a woman with strong career ambition. Although she didn’t always think about fulfilling her parents’ wish to make the Giradia Group stronger than before, her
persistence in her career was incomparable to ordinary people.”
This was the ultimate strong woman who can stand up to Benita. Matters of love and affection were simply not suitable for her at the moment.
“So, Mr. Evans, in the days to come, I hope you can take care of Ms. Wendy,” Rayburn said with gentle eyes.
“I would like to, but she has been giving me the cold shoulder lately,” Stefan said with a helpless smile.
Rayburn couldn’t help laughing, and said, “Ms. Wendy has an indifferent personality, and people who can make her displeased must have a special place in her heart. I think you two can make a couple…”
Stefan shivered, feeling a little terrified.
Although Wendy was very exquisite and beautiful, Stefan had never had such thoughts except for that time when he saw her through the misty veil while she was bathing in Freeview Hot Springs.
“Wendy is too smart. I don’t think you can hide this matter for long…” Stefan said with a sigh.
“I will hide it as long as I can. I Will quietly leave Mimar City when I am about to die. Mr. Evans, you need to take care of her.” Rayburn said seriously, with no fear of imminent death in his eyes.
People who could face death were real warriors, and this had nothing to do with the physical strength or martial prowess. Stefan even admired Rayburn. He had devoted his whole life to the Giradia family, and never asked for anything in return. He treated Wendy like a daughter.
Wendy came in with coffee at this time, and said lightly, “Rayburn, stop talking to this guy. He is a shameless guy. After getting to know you well, he might make some excessive demands!”
Stefan paused for a moment, and said with a sneer, “Rayburn is a real man, so it’s impossible for me to say something like ‘can I check your boobs’?”
Rayburn coughed. He was almost choked to death by his own saliva, and looked at Stefan with a wry smile.
Wendy was also stunned.
The veins on her forehead twitched violently, and she said, “You must think you are funny, huh?”
“I think I can talk in stand-up comedy,” Stefan replied.
“Why don’t I hold a special show for you? Invite everyone over?” Wendy sneered.
“That’s pretty good. You have money anyway. Book the Stadium in Emperia City for me to hold a special show.” Stefan answered with a smile.
Wendy said angrily, “Fine then! If you don’t go, you’re not a real man!
Stefan got stiffened.
“Wendy took out her mobile phone and called, “Get me in touch with someone from the Emperia City Sports Bureau. Ask them how much it would cost to rent out the Stadium, and tell them money is not an issue!” Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
The corners of Stefan’s mouth twitched. He cupped his hands, and said, “You’re awesome. I won’t hold this show, and I won’t try to be humorous anymore.”
Wendy smiled triumphantly, and said, “I have plenty of money. I’ll throw so much at you that you won’t know what hit you, you bastard!”
Stefan replied, “That’s what I earned for you!”
Wendy didn’t think much of it, she just felt that she had outplayed Stefan, and it felt very satisfying.
Rayburn watched from the side, thinking it was very interesting. He could not help showing a smile on his face.
Despite being mocked by Wendy, Stefan still shamelessly enjoyed a free lunch here and even took the half-empty bottle of wine on his way out.
“Geez!” Wendy dismissed him and didn’t say anything else.
“I’ll come back next time!” Stefan grinned and said triumphantly.
After Stefan left, Wendy felt that her depressed mood had become much more cheerful. She never thought that arguing with this guy would have such a miraculous effect.
When Stefan left Wendy’s house, he couldn’t help but glance back, and couldn’t help sighing.
He murmured, “If Rayburn leaves, Wendy will just collapse… What should I do?”
He was very clear about Rayburn’s position in Wendy’s heart. He was irreplaceable.
After leaving the house, Stefan didn’t go to the company, but went straight to Moses’s Villa.
This villa was sold when Moses was desperate, but he bought it back, and then he had someone redecorate it, almost exactly the same as before.
“Great! I have a hunch that you will come back here one day.” Stefan looked at the decoration and arrangement of the house which was exactly as before, and couldn’t help being satisfied.
He calculated the time, thinking about the time when he should go to Rikkus. He would meet Moses there. She must be very surprised!
