Chapter 913

Clare's heart was inexplicably restless.

It made him feel like he was on fire, making it difficult for him to control himself.

He had to see Sylvia immediately, as if only then could he feel a little relieved.

"Miss Andrews, there is something very important that I need to tell you about. It concerns your background," he said urgently.

Sylvia looked slightly stunned at the mention of her background. She knew about her mother's relationship with the Evans family, but... could there be other hidden secrets?

She had been searching for her mother's whereabouts for years and firmly believed that she was still alive. Could Clare have found some clues?

Her mind raced with a hundred thoughts.

As soon as she hung up the phone, she saw Franklin standing before her. His handsome eyebrows furrowed slightly with an air of curiosity. "What happened?" "Mr. Hipps said there is something very important that concerns my background," Sylvia rubbed her forehead in confusion; she couldn't quite figure it out yet.

"Let's have breakfast first." Franklin took hold of Sylvia's hand and led her to the dining table. "No matter what happens next, your health comes first."

"That makes sense." Sylvia nodded in agreement while taking a bite out of a steamed bun; she looked beautiful even when eating - elegant movements akin to watching an exquisite painting come alive on canvas - making it seem like she wasn't eating buns but rather delicacies from around the world instead!

Franklin raised an eyebrow and said. "Those students will soon be discharged from the hospital. They are young and ambitious; I welcome anyone who wants to work at Maskelyne Group or SouthStar Airlines as long as they are willing!"

Sylvia hesitated briefly before speaking. "But those stubborn parents... they might cause trouble..."

"You're worried about me?" Franklin chuckled softly; his lips curled upwards showing off how good-natured he felt right now.

"I'm trying to talk business here," Sylvia replied dryly while pretending to drink porridge without looking back at him.

Just hearing him speak like this made one's heartbeat quicken! Especially when he smiled - those pitch-black eyes reflecting morning light were particularly bright with confidence between his brows - extremely charming!
