Need You Now

Chapter 211 Will You Abandon Me

After Ada's affair had been settled finally, Heidy and Hearst moved on.

On Friday, Heidy and Hearst arrived at the hospital together with Gavin. It had been a while since the stem cell was transplanted. Today, Gavin came to reexamine his body. They decided to come to the hospital together, because they didn't have much time to spend with Gavin recently.

Gavin behaved well in the examinations and listened carefully to what doctor said. Even though he had to draw blood, he didn't cry or scream. When Heidy saw this, she still had a complicated feeling. Sometimes, her heart ached a lot when Gavin was so brave.

When they were waiting for the result, they came to the small garden in front of the hospital. Some children were playing there. Heidy crouched down and fondled Gavin's head. She said in a soft voice, "Gavin, do you want to play with the children?"

However, Gavin shook his head. He still held their hands and said, "No, I want to stay with my parents."

Hearing his answer, Heidy asked doubtfully, "Why? Don't you like to play with them?"

After turning to the children who were playing on the lawn, Gavin's eyes flashed with expectation. But soon, his eyes grew dim again. Looking at the two people in front of her, Gavin explained, "No, I want to be with you. I don't know when we can be together next time."

Her heart thumped, and she looked at him in astonishment and confusion. "Why did you say that?"

Bowing his head, Gavin didn't speak. After a minute's silence, he answered in a low voice, "You ignored me these days when you quarrel with dad."

Hearing that, Hearst looked at Heidy and their eyes met. Hearst also crouched down, looked into Gavin's eyes and said, "Gavin, you don't want us to quarrel, right?"

Placing his hands in front of him, Gavin was in silence. Heidy felt a little guilty when she saw him. During this period of time, they tried to solve that thing. After Heidy left Hearst's house, she didn't spend much time with Gavin. After this short separation, Gavin suffered a lot.

Heidy opened her arms and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Gavin. We shouldn't have ignored your feeling these days. I didn't take your feelings into consideration."

Hearing her apology, a ray of light flashed across Gavin's face. He asked, "Father, mother, will you abandon me?"

Then, with a look of assurance on his face, Hearst replied, "No, you will always be the dearest child of us."

Who said nothing, Gavin looked into Hearst's eyes. Heidy held his hand and said softly, "Gavin, parents love you forever. We will try not to quarrel with each other. Even if we have a fight, we will accompany you, okay?"

Looking at the sincere expression on her face, Gavin was silent for a moment. Then he said with a smile, "Yes, mom. I believe you." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Heidy gently caressed his head and said in an apologetic tone, "I am really sorry that I have neglected you a few days ago. I promise that dad and mom will spare more time to accompany you in the future. So, can you go and play with other children right now?"

Gavin nodded excitedly and let go of their hands. Then he ran to the lawn.

Heidy and Hearst stood together to watch Gavin play on the lawn. "We should try our best to solve the problem as soon as possible, okay? Gavin may lack mother's love since childhood. He is more sensitive than other children," said Heidy slowly.

Holding her shoulders, Hearst looked into her eyes and answered seriously, "Yes, we won't quarrel with each other anymore."

Heidy didn't answer. It was inevitable that they would have quarrels sometimes. If it had quarrel, they would try to minimize the damage to the children. That's Heidy's principle.

After half an hour, Gavin's result came out. According to the examination results, the Gavin's body had recovered. Seeing the result, Heidy smiled. It seemed that everything was turning for the better.

As they stepped out of the hospital, Gavin trotted in the middle excitedly. "Mom, when will you come back? I miss my little sister so much."

Looking at him, Heidy raised her eyebrows. "Ask your father. It depends on him."

Hearst wrapped his arms around her slender waist and replied with a smile, "I always want you to come back."

Hearing what he said, Heidy smiled and said, "Okay. Since you have a good attitude, I will agree to go home. Elsa and I will move back tonight. Elsa might not get used to her old house after leaving for a while."

Hearing this, Hearst replied calmly, "She will get used to it. No matter what happens, it's her home forever."

Heidy nodded gently. Then she held Gavin's hand and proceeded to the parking lot.

The next day, in the CEO's office of the J.Y Group, Heidy met with Hearst for work. Life was closely connected with work, so they had become the best partners. It would be a good result for both of them to work together and benefit from the cooperation.

Sitting on the sofa, Heidy asked coldly, "By the way, is the Liu family really allied with the Tan family by marriage?"

Hearing that, Hearst raised his head and answered indifferently, "Yes, the engagement party is being prepared, and it will be held around next week. Even if Ada disagreed with it, she had no choice. She deserved it.

"It's a big shame for her to her lover's brother. Besides, Nick isn't a decent man," Heidy chuckled.

With a nod, Hearst replied coldly, "This is her punishment, and it can also stop my father from nagging me about the marriage. Both their companies will benefit from the marriage. And he will not try to plot against us anymore."

Heidy nodded in agreement. At the beginning, the reason why the Tan family was willing to help Ada was that they wanted her to get married with Hearst. Now their goal was achieved, and it would be more favorable for them if Nick married Ada. After all, Wilson had little control over Hearst.

Placing her hand on her forehead, she teased, "I don't want to go back to your father's house if not necessary. Even if we come back, we should be careful. I don't want it to happen again."

With a nod, Hearst replied in a low voice, "It will not happen again." It would be really stupid to make the same mistake again.

"In fact, I have been thinking that this matter is not that simple. Although Ada was arrogant and willful, she might not be such a scheming woman. I have a feeling that someone is behind all this," said Heidy thoughtfully.

Hearst narrowed his eyes and said in a serious voice, "Yes, I have the same feeling as you. But I haven't gotten solid evidence now."

Heidy looked at her watch and stood up. With her hands behind her back, she said with a smile, "I have to go back to the company to deal with something. See you tonight."

"Won't you have lunch with me?" asked Hearst.

Shaking her head, Heidy chuckled, "I have an appointment today. Jessica ask me to the theater. I'll see you tonight."

Then, looking at her, Hearst said with jealousy, "Honey, which one is more important to you, me or Jessica?"

After a serious thought, Heidy said wittily, "Currently, you are rank the last. If you want to improve your ranks, you have to perform well." With that, she walked towards the door in a good mood.

Seeing her leave, Hearst smiled and shook his head. When he lowered his head and was about to pick up the document, the door was opened again. "Why do you come back?"

Assistant Liu quickly came in front of him and said, "Boss, I suddenly find something and have to report it to you."

Noticing his nervous look, Hearst asked in confusion, "What happened?"

"You asked me to investigate the whereabouts of Miss Ada. There is one thing that has been neglected. Miss Ada used to go to an apartment. She stayed there for a few minutes and then left. Ten minutes after Miss Ada left, two men walked out of the apartment. But we didn't connect it with the matter at that time. When I checked the surveillance video today, I found a man looked familiar."

Seeing that he spoke faster than usual, Hearst took the papers from him. Then he saw the picture from the monitor. He frowned. With his eyes narrowed, he focused on the man in the photo. Although it was a little far, Hearst recognized the man at first glance.

"Boss, I'm afraid that he came back to take revenge on you. I'm afraid this matter has something to do with him," Assistant Liu said solemnly. "If it really has something to do with him, things will be a little tricky."

Then, Hearst put down the documents in his hands, crossed his hands over his chest and said in a calm voice, "Three years of solitude and quiet life, he couldn't stand it anymore."

"Then what should we do next?" Assistant Liu asked.

Standing up, Hearst turned around and looked out of the window. Then, with one of his hands in his pocket, he said calmly, "It's time to meet this old friend."

Assistant Liu understood what he meant. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it. I need to find out his whereabouts as soon as possible." Then, assistant Liu left the office.

Looking out of the window, Hearst fell into deep thoughts. Seeing the familiar face, Hearst knew that things would be difficult in the future. But this time, just like three years ago, he must win. Thinking of this, Hearst sensed a hint of coldness around him.
