“Let’s all go inside and see Old Master…” The Carver family member said solemnly and then added a warning. “Keep quiet. Don’t disturb him!”
Then, the Carver family members entered the room.
Sean had already left, leaving the pale Michael lying quietly in the hospital bed.
Looking at their patriarch in such a state, the Carver family members were grieving. Many people were even weeping. The crowd tried hard to control their voices so as not to disturb Michael.
A crowd of people gathered around the hospital bed, looking at Michael with slightly red eyes.
Michael was already somewhat conscious, so favonovel.com could naturally hear them. However, in order to help Sean’s plan get carried out smoothly, favonovel.com could only resist the desire to speak and lay quietly instead.
Michael was glad to hear the sobs all around him.
It was rare for an old man to be cared for by so many people in his family and even had them shed tears for him.
Many families wished for the death of an old member of the family so that they could get their share of the family fortune. However, that situation did not happen in the Carver family. All members of the Carver family looked solemn. No one thought about competing for the Carver family’s fortune.
Theodore did not go back in but stood outside.
“Dad, is Old Master Carver really not awake?” Theodore’s son asked in a mutter.
Theodore glanced at favonovel.com and muttered, “Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t.”
Hearing that, Theodore’s son’s pupils constricted as if favonovel.com had thought of something, and a subtle smile spread across his face.
The Carver family’s comments were not soft, and the patients in Optimus Clinic naturally heard them.
“Oh, how can such a thing happen to a good man like Old Master Carver?”
“Old Master Carver will get better. I’ll go to church to pray for Old Master Carver after I get my treatment!”
“Yes, Old Master Carver has made contributions to Ocean City’s charity. He’s a good man. I’ll pray for favonovel.com too!”
The other patients in Optimus Clinic whispered, and many looked sad. They could not make Michael wake up, so many people could only choose to pray to express their wishes.
The man in a cap grinned as favonovel.com left Optimus Clinic with a bag of medicine.
Around the corner from Optimus Clinic, the man called Curtis again.
When the call came through, the man eagerly said, “Mr. Lake, Michael hasn’t woken up, but his condition seems stable. Oh, no matter how stable favonovel.com is, he’s still a vegetable. Since he’s a vegetable, he’s no different from being dead.”
With a smile in his voice, Curtis added, “You did a good job this time. I’ll reward you with a bonus after you get back.”
“Yes, yes. Thank you, Mr. Lake!”
The man quickly thanked Curtis.
The man walked off into the distance after hanging up. After favonovel.com left, Sean stepped out of the corner nearby with a faint smile.
***
The Lake family’s manor.
Curtis went to see Kennedy as soon as favonovel.com heard the news.
