Chapter 1403

Seeing Bernard in such a state, Aidyn and Scott exchanged a knowing glance. They simultaneously pushed their car doors open and rushed toward him. “Mr. Laurence!”

“Sir!”

The sight of two burly men, their eyes brimming with tears, lunging toward him, touched Bernard’s heart. Yet instinctively, his legs took a step back.

As Aidyn and Scott noticed Bernard retreating, a moment of understanding passed between them-‘Back off, man!

Respecting his space, they stopped in their tracks, still looking at Bernard with eyes full of unshed tears. The man stood before them, bathed in the light, looking so radiant it almost seemed he shone.

“Mr. Laurence, you’re finally back, thank God! We were worried sick!”

After a few seconds of intense gaze, Bernard lifted his slender fingers and patted Aidyn and Scott on their shoulders.

“Sorry for worrying you guys.”

His voice was as calm as ever, and the touch on their shoulders inexplicably brought a sense of security to Aidyn and Scott. It felt as if with Mr. Laurence’s return, any problem could be resolved.
