The helicopters could be easily accessed, but the private jets were left at the airport where the airline companies would take care of them. Hence, the family still had to make their way to the airport, even if they were taking a private jet.

Shane put his phone away and turned to the others in the conference room. “Our meeting today will conclude here and now. We'll continue with our discussion after I've returned.”

“Understood.” Everyone already overheard what he had to do, so no one objected. Instead, they nodded in agreement.

Shane opened the door and left the conference room after that.

Outside, Silas saw him exiting the room while having a terrible expression. The former immediately asked, “What's wrong, Mr. Thompson?”

“Something happened to Joyce,” replied Shane as he made his way to the elevator.

Silas followed closely behind. “What happened to Ms. Rivers?”

“She tried to commit suicide,” answered Shane. He pressed the button in the elevator after that.

Silas shouted, “What? Suicide? For real?”Shane frowned and glared in dissatisfaction.

“Do you think I'd joke about something like this?”

Silas immediately shook his head and hands. “No, not at all. I was just surprised and couldn't register or believe that for a moment there. Still, why would she do that to herself? How is she now? Is she gone?”

“She survived. Her parents found her in time and rescued her,” answered Shane as he walked into the elevator.

Silas sighed a breath of relief. “That's good to know. Madam will surely be devastated if anything were to happen to Ms. Rivers.”
