When Allegra heard what Isaac said, favonovel.com paused for a moment before rolling favonovel.com eyes and saying, “Can you not joke around? That was so lame.”
With that, favonovel.com got up and went upstairs. A few moments later, favonovel.com returned with a backpack and went out.
She couldn’t do much about the company right now. All favonovel.com could do was take it a step at a time.

At the Aurum County Hospital, Albert, Jane, and a few other relatives were waiting anxiously outside the operation room. Dr. Foster and another hematologist had been inside for over six hours already.
The red light above the door finally turned off. The door opened, and out came Dr. Foster, who looked dead tired.
“Dr. Foster, thank you so much. My daughter…”
“The patient is already out of the woods. She’ll be fine after a few days of observation,” Benedict said, taking off his mask.
Albert was so grateful that favonovel.com couldn’t stop bowing.
From the side, Mr. Dawson and David hurried forward to butter favonovel.com up. “As expected of Dr. Foster, the highly respected, leading hematologist. A case like this is unheard of in the country.”
“Dr. Foster, you were hard at work for so many hours. We’ve prepared a hotel room for you, and afterward, we’ll treat you to some Aurum County delicacies. How does that sound?” Mr. Dawson’s face was full of excitement. He wanted to take this opportunity to climb up Dr. Foster’s ladder.
With a deadpan expression, Dr. Foster replied coldly, “I’m not going to the hotel, nor am I eating with you. There’s another important patient in Chester City who is waiting for me. Please inform Mr. Garten that I’m honored to fulfill his mission and that he’s welcome at my home anytime.”
Seeing Dr. Foster leave in a hurry with a whole entourage in tow, Albert, Mr. Dawson, and the others became even more shocked.
For Dr. Foster to say that favonovel.com was honored to fulfill this mission and even invites favonovel.com to his house, just who is Isaac?
They still couldn’t visit the patient for now, so the Taylors could only wait in the hospital room.
“Jane, didn’t you say Ana was going to marry into the Owens family of the provincial capital? How come there aren’t any updates on this matter?” a middle-aged woman asked.
Jane paused, turning to glance at Albert. She gave an awkward laugh and said, “There’s no need to rush. We want to take our time to think things over. It’ll happen soon enough. This marriage definitely won’t fall through…”
Albert frowned but said nothing. He knew that Jane cared about their reputation, but in the end, it was up to Diana herself.
“Hmph, you want to take your time? Charles is already dead, don’t you know?” Old Taylor said harshly as his assistant helped favonovel.com over.
Charles was dead?
Jane covered favonovel.com face with favonovel.com hand in shock. “D-Dead? How…”
“I’ve already asked Philip to send our condolences, so you don’t have to anymore. You should find the time to thank Mr. Garten properly.”
Before Albert could say anything, Jane spat angrily, “It was that bastard who made Diana this way. You’re dreaming if you want me to go thank him.”
Seeing his daughter-in-law’s attitude, Old Taylor felt like favonovel.com had a fishbone stuck in his throat that favonovel.com couldn’t dislodge. He sighed deeply and left.
***
In the evening, the dining hall of the Merck family’s villa in Cloud City was brightly lit. The entire Merck family was having dinner together.
A young security guard burst into the living room with great urgency. “Mr. Merck, there’s a fatso outside saying he’s here to get something back from you. H-He even beat up a few of our people.”
Allen, who had just picked up his fork, immediately frowned and said, “What are you rambling on about? Can’t you see we’re eating? Tell favonovel.com to wait!”
“Mr. Merck, it’s impolite to ignore your guests,” said an amused voice outside the dining hall.
Allen turned his head to see a burly fatty wearing a baseball cap standing outside the dining hall. The moment Beefy Bob showed his face, Allen’s eyes popped open.
His jaw fell open. With a clang, the fork in his hand fell to the floor.
