Chapter 1040 Come Back With Good News
Natalie glanced at the man beside her and comforted Luna, “Don’t mention it. I can’t blame you for it. The man beside me should take full responsibility. He needed your help to put on the show because he wanted to shoulder all his burdens.”
Samuel put on a faint smile and accepted it without protest. “Luna, Nat is right. Everything happened because of me.”
The next moment, Malcolm cleared his throat and chimed in, “It’s fine as long as you know your mistake! How could you keep it from Natalie and me? I would’ve been kept in the dark forever if she didn’t send me a letter. I wouldn’t know anything even after my disciple passes away!”
The air in the living room got tenser once Malcolm finished the last sentence.
The clock was ticking. Samuel could only live for a few months if the poison remained in his body.
As everyone’s expression turned grim, Malcolm regretted saying those words.
At the same time, the smile on Natalie’s face faded away.
Luna held Natalie’s hand gently and said, “Mrs. Bowers, I went to find Mr. Yablon and have come back with good news. He might have a way to treat Mr. Bowers.”
“Is that true?” As Natalie gazed at Luna, the glint in her eyes had seemingly rekindled.
“I can’t be entirely sure about it now. After all, Mr. Yablon only made his inference based on my description of Mr. Bowers’ condition. He has to check up on Mr. Bowers in person to ascertain the suitable treatment method.” Luna informed Natalie about everything she knew.
Jorden was a peculiar doctor, so much so that one would find Malcolm easy to deal with in comparison.
Nevertheless, contemporary doctors were hardly on par with Jorden’s skills in expelling poisons.
Undoubtedly, it was good news that Luna had successfully persuaded Jorden to treat Samuel.
“That’s great!” Natalie’s lips instinctively curled into a smile once she heard it.
Luna added, “However, it is difficult for Mr. Yablon to leave his village because he is already up in his years. Hence, I suggest bringing Mr. Bowers to his place tomorrow. The sooner, the better.”
Just as Natalie wanted to say she would follow them, she recalled she had to be at the helm of Dream at this juncture. In particular, the company had just completed Helma’s jewelry design, and the handmade jewelry would be produced soon. As the company’s CEO, she had to make sure there were no mistakes.
Natalie frowned deeply, for she was in a dilemma.
After a while, Samuel glanced at Natalie and said calmly, “Luna, I’ll go with you tomorrow. Nat will stay in Loang.”
Natalie was stunned for a while but soon made up her mind. “I’ll go with you.”
Samuel shook his head and argued, “Not necessary. I’m going there for my treatment. There’s nothing you can do even if you come along with us.”
“But I—”
Knowing that Natalie and Samuel were about to argue, Malcolm touched his beard and said, “Natalie, Samuel, I’ll go with Luna to look for Jorden. You have to decide if Samuel alone or both of you are coming with us. Luna and I won’t interfere with your decision.”
Luna nodded in agreement. “Mm.”
Then, they left the living room to give Natalie and Samuel space.
The next moment, Natalie stopped pretending to be calm and spoke her mind. “Samuel, I want to go with you.”
“What are we going to do if something happens to Dream, yet you’re not around?” Samuel narrowed his eyes as he continued, “Dream’s foundation is not stable enough. Even though you have a right-hand man like Yandel, he might be unable to handle some emergencies by himself! Moreover, what happened to Yvette in the past is a lesson we must remember!”
