After leaving the place, Carol hummed a tune as she headed back to her Maserati.

There had been a whirlwind of events in Greenfield recently. lan had gone abroad, and Maja was about to leave as well.

Carol hadn't shared much about her own affairs with Maja, knowing her friend had plenty on her plate.

She figured that once she got married, she'd just send Maja an invitation, which would surely give her the surprise of her life.

There was a thrilling sense of accomplishment in doing big things quietly, and Carol couldn't help but smile.

But while Carol was still lost in daydreams of matrimony, she had just returned to her villa when she received a call from Abner's

assistant.

"Ms. Miller, the president has been hospitalized. You should come."

Carol felt a tremor in her heart. Abner had always been in good health; how could he suddenly be hospitalized?

Without a moment's delay, she sped off to the hospital.

Abner had just been brought out of the emergency room, looking pale and frail. Tears welled up in Carol's eyes as she reached out

to hold his hand.

"Dad, what happened?"

Abner coughed twice and glared at her.

"What's with the tears? It's not like I'm on my deathbed."

"Don't talk like that, Dad. You're supposed to live a long, healthy life!"

Carol rubbed her eyes fiercely.
