Chapter 329: Chapter 329
Liliana Davis stood up, took her assistant, and walked out of the ward. Turning around to look at Nathan Leafcastle, who was still lost in thought, she reached out and closed the door tightly, then walked with Linda to a distant lounge before she spoke in a low voice.
"Tomorrow, go find out who Vera Wave is with now, for how long and what’s the situation. Notify me immediately once you find out." Folding her arms, Liliana Davis took a light breath, "Don’t let Nathan know about this. For now, go buy him some porridge."
Linda turned and left. Liliana Davis returned to the hospital bed, gently pushed open the door, and her gaze fell on the despondent Nathan Leafcastle. Her slender brows furrowed, and her heart ached dully.
At that moment, Nathan Leafcastle had already come back to his senses. Seeing her, he offered an apologetic smile.
"It’s getting late, you must be tired after such a long flight. Go back and rest early. I’m fine here."
"Silly child!" Liliana Davis sat by his side, took the water cup, and handed it to him, "With you , how can Mom be at ease going back? Drink some water, get a good sleep, and don’t overthink things. Everything will pass. Don’t worry, I’m fine." Latest content publıshed on novel-fire.ɴet
Taking the cup to his lips, Nathan Leafcastle absentmindedly drank a couple of sips of water.
After a while, he began speaking softly.
"The Wave Clan... something happened!"
Liliana Davis was just reaching for a tissue when she heard his words. Her fingers stiffened slightly, and she turned her face back to her son’s.
"Uncle Wave’s previous project in Singapore, his entire fortune was invested and lost into it." Nathan Leafcastle took a deep breath, his voice carried a sense of heartache, "Grandma Wave is still in the hospital, and Vera is... having a hard time now."
Liliana Davis frowned and sighed, "I never thought the Wave Clan would fall to such a point."
"No matter what..." Nathan Leafcastle lowered the cup in his hand, "I must find that person and give Vera justice."
"That person?" Liliana Davis raised an eyebrow, "Who?"
"The person who caused the Wave Clan’s downfall." Nathan Leafcastle’s eyes showed a shadow, "I’ve looked into the project’s details, this thing is not that simple. I suspect it’s a trap, someone intentionally set up to frame the Wave Clan."
Taking the cup from his hand and placing it on the table, Liliana Davis frowned, watching her son’s face, "I always thought you had grown up and could handle things independently. Now I realize I was wrong. Nathan, do you think doing this will make Vera grateful and come back to you?"
Nathan Leafcastle was at a loss for words, "I... I just want to give her justice?"
"Justice?" Liliana Davis scoffed lightly, "Where is there justice in this world?"
Covering her son’s hand with her own, Liliana Davis gently patted it, "Nathan, I know these words may sound harsh, but I must remind you. You and Vera Wave have known each other for so many years. If she truly liked you, she wouldn’t wait until today to leave. Forcing something that isn’t yours will only lead to pain."
Just as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door outside. It was the assistant returning with the bought hot porridge.
Liliana Davis got up, took the porridge bowl, served some into a small bowl personally, gently cooled it, then fed it to Nathan Leafcastle with a spoon.
"I don’t want to eat."
"Alright." Liliana Davis didn’t insist, just lowered the porridge bowl in her hand, "From now on, Mom will be with you. You don’t eat, I won’t eat. You don’t drink, I won’t drink. You don’t sleep, I won’t sleep."
