Chapter 734 Be Fine
Chapter 734 Be Fine
"Good morning, Miss Hester!"
Hester walked in the garden. Along the way, the servants greeted politely, which made her a little uncomfortable. But looking at the kind smile on everyone's face, there was no need to be shy.
"Good morning!"
Hester replied with a sweet smile.
"You look much better. It seems that you had a good rest last night!" Leo walked in with a smile, looked at her and said lightly.
"Yes! I slept well last night, which is rare!" Taking a comfortable deep breath, Hester's smile almost overflowed.
She hadn't been so good for a long time. She felt that every cell in her body was very relaxed, which was an unprecedented feeling.
Looking at Hester sideways, Leo's smile deepened. He had been worried that she might not adapt to the life of the Liu family, but now it seemed that he had worried too much.
Although they didn't have much communication, the inborn intimacy was always there. It was as if they had met for the first time, with a trace of affection in the haze, pulling them closer.
"It seems that you are getting used to it. I heard from Louis that grandpa is getting better. Let's go there together!"
They came to the door of Edmund's bedroom one after another. Leo was familiar with the way to enter. Hester hesitated and stepped in.
Lying on the bed, Edmund's face was not as pale as yesterday. He looked much better.
Taking a deep breath, Hester felt less guilty. As long as grandpa was healthy, she would be relaxed.
If it weren't for her, grandpa would only miss her mother the most. Now he even broke his wish for her, which really hurt him!
"Hester, come over and sit next to me!" At the first sight of them, Edmund saw Hester behind Leo and waved at her.
Hester raised her eyebrows, but she sat down obediently. With her hands intertwined, she deliberately avoided the gaze of Edmund.
Although she had accepted the fact that he was her grandfather, she still felt a little awkward and didn't know what to do.
"Grandpa!"
Her timid voice made Edmund instantly happy. He raised his hand and gently patted the back of her hand, with tears in his eyes.
He was gratified that his daughter, Rosemary, could bring back such a wonderful granddaughter.
"My poor child, welcome home!"
The simple sentence made Hester's nose twitch. Fortunately, she lowered her head, so no one noticed her embarrassment.
"Grandpa, I've already said that. Can't you change a new word?"
Leo looked at his grandfather. It was obvious that he was fond of his granddaughter. Although Leo was happy for Hester, he still scolded him.
Since Edmund was not easy to get along with, he would naturally make good use of the opportunity.
Glancing at Leo, Edmund took a deep breath and didn't lose his temper. Now he was in front of his granddaughter, and it was not too late to deal with that bloke later! Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"Leo, I heard from your father that there seemed to be something wrong with the foreign company a few days ago. Since you are not busy now, why don't you go there for a few months?"
Oh God! Did he hear it wrong? It was a blatant threat! The most important thing that it was the same as to be exiled!
Leo rolled his eyes in his heart and felt sad. He glanced at Hester. The same person had different lives, which could perfectly describe his current situation.
"Grandpa, there are still some patients waiting for me in the law office! Since Hester is here with you, I'll go first."
Before leaving, he turned around and looked at Hester, as if he wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought.
"Well, Hester, take good care of grandpa!"
Seeing the two of them playing tricks, Hester smiled and nodded slightly. "Leo, don't worry! I'll take care of grandpa. He'll be fine."
Leo was choked with sobs and turned around silently. He raised his hand and pinched between his eyebrows, feeling that his background was too miserable. Although the Liu family always favored girls, it was a little unfair to boys!
Standing at the door with a bowl of medicine in his hand, Eric happened to meet Leo. Their four eyes met, and there was no shame of eavesdropping on his face. He patted Leo on the shoulder to comfort
him silently.
"Trust me. What you are suffering now is far less than what I am suffering!"
Comforted by his father's words, the dark cloud hovering over Leo's head instantly dissipated with a faint sense of melancholy.
"Dad, I feel sorry for you!"
In the CEO office of Qi Group, Terence threw the document on the ground with a gloomy face. He raised his eyes and glanced at the people in front of him coldly.
"No news yet?"
Everyone lowered their heads in silence. The CEO looked like he was going to tear them into pieces. They'd better be careful!
"It's been two days, but you still can't find any clue. Why do I need you idiots?"
Terence growled, blue veins standing out on his neck. His black eyes were bloodshot. He looked like an angry lion and was likely to eat people.
"Mr. Terence, when we investigated, we always felt that someone was disturbing us! It seems that he has a strong background this time!"
As the leader of the group, the man lowered his eyes slightly, with sweat on his forehead. He took a step forward and spoke out everyone's mind.
It was not because they did something wrong, but because they were in a fierce fight. The opponents were clearly well prepared and were not afraid of being investigated at all.
"Someone stopped you?" A hint of cruelty flashed through Terence's eyes and he said coldly.
He unconsciously tightened his hands, and the sweaty palm made him panic. If he hadn't suddenly wanted to see Hester that day, he wouldn't have coincidentally discovered that she was kidnapped.
He had also caught up with her at the first time, but the driver was so skilled at driving that he easily shook him off.
"I don't care what method or relationship you use. Anyway, tonight is your deadline. Otherwise, all of you will get out of here!"
Fidgeting with his hair, Terence lowered his head dejectedly, recalling the scene of Hester being taken away, making him restless.
It had been two days. How was she now? 'Are you hurt?'
"Hester, you can't be hurt!"
"Mr. Terence, don't worry. The people we sent to monitor Austin reported that they haven't received the phone call from the kidnapper. Miss Hester should be safe now."
