Chapter 436

Evadne, while tending to her family and taking care of Emeric’s diness, was also secretly orchestrating her move.

Emeric’s health was not to be taken lightly. After much deliberation with the three lady companions, they decided to inform Cassius and Arnold to come home to visit Emeric, After all, as the eldest and second sons of the family, it was their duty to shoulder this responsibility.

Simultaneously, Suri had called upon Chasel to diagnose Emeric.

Evadne was a top–notch surgeon, but when it came to neurology, Chasel was the expert.

After a series of checks, Chasel explained patiently to Exadne and the rest of the Ashbourne, family, who were all ears, holding onto his every word.

Only Cassius stood on the periphery, his tall figure casting a somber gaze on Dr. Bright, who was seriously explaining the situation to the patient’s family in his white coat.

Cassius’s gaze was deep, and his lips were slightly upturned, forming a beautiful curve.

Chasel kept talking non–stop, and suddenly, he raised his long lashes, looking precisely in Cassius’s direction. Their gazes met, and Cassius quickly averted his eyes, his heart pounding in his chest.

Chasel chuckled quietly and then reassured them, Dont worry, Chairman Emeric’s condition has worsened over the past few years, but it’s not as serious as you think, Regular chock–ups, proper care, and medication will keep it under control.

As for his diet, he should stay away from spicy, salty, and sugary food. Thick blood can increase the risk of disease”

Upon hearing this, Myra, the family’s culinary queen, nodded incessantly, designing a new menu in her mind.

“Good lord. He’s going to have to give up all his favorite foods.”

Arnold forced a bitter smile, “He’s going to be miserable when he hears this. He’s got such a picky palate.”

“He better get used to in. He’s sixty and still doesn’t take care of his health. I’ve caught him sneaking into the kitchen to eat cake in the middle of the night twice! Where’s the dignity of a business tycoon!” Evadne exclaimed, shaking her head in disbelief.

“The most important point is to keep his mood stable. Don’t let his emotions fluctuate too much, and especially don’t let him get angry. Anger can worsen his condition and harm his liver Chasel added seriously,

Everyone nodded in understanding.

But amidst them, Evadne was like a dark shadow, her long lashes lowered, her heart aching as if it was tightly gripped by an invisible hand.

After Emeric’s check–up, he returned to Silverlake Harbor with his family

In the living room, Emeric was surrounded by everyone, watching him take his medication and eat the plain porridge prepared by Myra

–“Can’t have some pickles? This has no flavor Emeric complained as he swallowed the bland porridge.

Everyone chorused, “No! You’re off pickles!!

Emerio was left feeling helpless.

During dinner, Emeric gently told Suri, “Suri, accompany me to the horse racing event this weekend. I have Mr. Dylan send some dresses to your room later for you to choose from”

Suri showed concern, Emeric, are you sure you should go? You’ve just stabilized. Chase also said you need more rest. Maybe you should skipit this

year.

“I must go,” Emeric insisted, business matters were not open for discussion. The K Group may have reached the top in Skyrim, but were still working on our reputation in Elmsworth, We’re not as wellknown as the Abernathy Group or the Chambers Group. This is a rare opportunity to make an appearance. Plus, I’ve already made plans with Jeff. I can’t cancel now!”

Emeric’s position as the richest man was due to his opportunistic approach, a trait Evadne had inherited impeccably

She could have been popular as Thaddeus’s ex–wife, but she hid it and shocked the world with her other identities.
