Chapter 66: Suicide II

While Ewan waited for Fiona’s doctor to come and give the final analysis as the latter had promised, he checked out the KN press’ website.

Beside him, Fiona laid as if dead.

After her father, Alfonso, had left, she had gotten paler, as if there was some thread of connection between them.

He had to keep checking her vitals to confirm she was still alive, not ready to be bereaved again.

He looked at her again, sighed tiredly, and dropped his iPad on his lap.

The money he had offered Alfonso was the best he could really offer at the moment, considering his company’s stocks which had kept declining, even without the interference of the KN media company.

He only hoped Alfonso would understand. The company was very important to him. It was the only thing left of his immediate family. He couldn’t risk it folding up.

Alfonso would have to be satisfied with his taking care of Fiona properly.

These few hours he had spent with Fiona—watching her struggle at times, as if she was fighting a demon—he felt guilty for being too harsh on her.

After all, it was just this once that she had displayed foolishness. And hadn’t everything been sorted out?

During those few hours, he had also chosen to let her shortcomings go. Already, he had sent Sandro to pick her things from the flat and return them to the mansion.

He would give her another chance. He would restore her cards too.

But the engagement was the one he refused to be moved on.

He picked up his phone again, and continued scrolling through the KN website, looking for a cheat code, for a way in.

There was not much news, but the website was very organized and the news were all detailed with sources, both names and unnamed, with undeniable proof.

Secondly, they were highly scandalous, never mind they reported true news.

When he had tried to access more news, totally engrossed in their methods of reporting, he had been stopped by a red notice—he had to register to access more news.

So, all this while, he has been trying to register at the website, to subscribe to their newspaper, despite the outrageous fees, but he has been barred at every turn.

For some reasons unknown to him, he couldn’t register successfully.
