Chapter 540
It’s been two months since Bernard slipped into a coma
The man on the hospital bed had a handsome and refined face, his eyes tightly shut, and lashes long
and thick. He lay there silently on the crisp white bed, as if he had already left this world, leaving behind
just a body
Cedric took a cotton swab from Aldyn, dipped it in warm water, and moistened the man’s dry, lifeless
lips.
Grabbing a clean towel, he wiped the man’s forehead and asked the head bodyguard standing behind
him, “Still no luck?”
The bodyguard looked down, guilt written all over his face “Sorry we couldn’t find anything in G country
either…”
Hearing this, Cedric spun around and hurled the towel at the bodyguard’s head. You’re useless! You
can’t even find a single person!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe bodyguard leader didn’t move. He let Cedric vent his anger. Three months ago, she was seen
boarding a private jet to G country. Why can’t we find her?”
Cedric’s face turned grey with rage. He pointed at the bodyguard and cussed him out “We’ve got leads,
and you still can’t find her. What good are you?!”
The bodyguard still didn’t speak. Cedric looked around for something else to throw at him, but Aidyn
stepped in.
“Mr. Laurence, the private jet belonged to Mr. Wilson of G country. But he says he doesn’t know
Eleanor and denies she was on that flight. It’s possible there’s been a mistake”
Cedric’s handsome face showed anger and fatigue from running the Lawrence Group over the past few
days. He was anxious over Bernard’s prolonged coma
He furrowed his brows, took a deep breath to calm his rage, and sat back down by the bed.
He looked at the man on the bed, his eyes filled with worry and quilt “Bernard, I’m sorry. We still haven’t
found Eleanor…”
He leaned back on the couch, looking at that flawless face and murmured softly. “Bernard, if you don’t
wake up soon, we might never find Eleanor. Can you really bear to see her disappear from this world.”
Cedric rambled on, but the man on the bed didn’t respond. It’s as if he had already gone, and left
behind Eleanor, the Laurence family, and this world.
Cedric stood up in despair, telling Aidyn, “Take good care of him.”
Aidyn nodded and watched as Cedric left looking worn out. He took out his phone to call Caleb
“Caleb, has Cameron talked?”
“No.”
Caleb was gripping Cameron’s collar, ready to knock him off if he didn’t spill the beans. Hearing Aidyn’s
call, he tossed the half-beaten Cameron to the ground.
“He’s afraid that if he leaks Eleanor’s whereabouts, hell be silenced for good. So, he refuses to talk.”
Aidyn scoffed, “He’s got some nerve”
Caleb kicked Cameron hard, “Not just nerve. He’s quite smart too. Almost escaped a few times.”
Aidyn instructed, “He’s the only one who knows where Eleanor is. Keep an eye on him. Also, are they
still searching in G country?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCaleb replied, “Never stopped. Mr. Wilson won’t spill the beans, but I’ve kidnapped his family. We
should have results soon.”
Aidyn nodded, “Caleb, the bodyguards probably won’t find anything. The Laurences..they’re not happy
with Eleanor. They think she’s the reason for Mr. Laurence’s condition and don’t want to use the
Laurence Group to find her. It’s all on you now.”
Caleb responded, “I got it” and hung up
Aidyn put down his phone and turned to look at the man on the bed. He stared for a while, then, like
Cedric, sat next to Bernard and started talking softly.
He read online that people in comas could still be conscious Talking to them could stimulate their brain
and possibly wake them up.
For Mr. Laurence, Eleanor was his lifeline. Talking about her should wake him up, right?
After chatting for a while, Aidyn wanted to get a drink. But as he got up, he saw Bernard’s slender
fingers on the white sheet twitch slightly….
This small movement shocked Aidyn. He stared wide-eyed, frozen in place, and eyes glued to that
hand
“Mr. Laurence, are you waking up?”
