“It was my men who found her on a mountain several kilometers away from our location,” Sven replied. “At that time, she was severely injured and barely conscious, just clinging on to dear life. I immediately arranged for her to be taken to a trustworthy hospital. After the doctors examined her, they said that if she had been brought in any later, she wouldn’t have survived.”
Upon hearing this, Cecilia felt that there was more to the matter than met the eye. “Did the doctor mention when she would wake up?”
Sven shook his head.
“The doctor said that she would either wake up within a month or never wake up in her lifetime.”
Upon hearing the answer, Cecilia couldn’t help but sigh.
“Her injury was probably sustained last month, right?”
“Right.”
“How did she manage to hold on until now?”
Sven sighed as he explained, “When my men rushed over, they found her hiding in the mountains, surviving on wild plants. The doctor also mentioned that she must have possessed a strong will to live, which was why she held on for so long.”
Upon hearing this, Cecilia gave a nod.
“I want to go see her tonight.”
“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements,” Sven responded.
After some thought, Cecilia asked, “What do you think about me telling Cassina about her situation?”
“Cassina is her biological daughter, so logically, she wouldn’t harm her. However, one can’t be certain if she has been corrupted by money and power,” Sven responded.
Cecilia had considered it, but she couldn’t discount the possibility that it wasn’t Cassina who harmed Bailey.
“Are you confident you can protect Bailey?”
“Of course,” Sven responded without hesitation.
“Good, I’ll let Cassina know when I get back later.”
After she finished, Cecilia didn’t continue on that topic She turned to Sven and said, “Let’s have dinner together here today. I’ve prepared a lot of home–cooked food. Eating out all the time isn’t healthy for you.”
Initially, Sven had thought to refuse, but when something came to mind, he agreed.
“Alright.”
Cecelia then led him inside.

Upon seeing the two about to return, Elliot was one step ahead of them.
Inside the dining room, all the dishes were already served.
Nathaniel saw Elliot return and couldn’t help but ask him, “What did you hear?”
Elliot was out of breath, taking a moment to rest on the stool before speaking. “I heard Mommy mentioning something about going to visit someone who’s sick.”
“Someone sick?”
Nathaniel wanted to ask more, but then Cecilia and the others came over.
He hadn’t expected Sven to join them as well.
Charlotte hadn’t expected Sven to come over for dinner, especially considering she had specifically invited him over just a few days ago only to be coldly rejected.
Due to that, she was convinced that Sven had no interest in her, so she stopped conversing with him.
Upon seeing Sven coming over for a meal, she felt a sense of discomfort.
When Lucille and the boss invite him for a meal, he comes without hesitation. But when I extended the invitation, was met with his refusal. It’s clear that he does not like me, or he might even despise me.
Charlotte intentionally seated herself in a corner.
What she couldn’t believe was that Sven had actually chosen to sit next to her.
Before she could even react, he said, “I genuinely had something on last time, consider this as my apology. Also, I’m accustomed to dining alone when I’m out.”
It took a while before Charlotte could regain her senses
“Are you talking to me?”
Sven didn’t answer.
Charlotte felt somewhat flattered inside, but on the surface, she remained composed.
“It’s alright. I understand that everyone has their own temperament. I’m not upset. You don’t need to apologize.”
She’s not upset?
Skepticism filled Sven’s eyes.
She certainly did look angry before this. Could it be that I misjudged her reaction?
