I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 732

Chapter 732 We Still Have Time

Zoe took the phone, and the moment she saw the photo, her smile disappeared from her face. Daniel was blindfolded and gagged in that photo, and his whole body—his shoulder, his chest, his waist—was riddled with wounds. No wonder he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt that night even though the weather's been like an oven lately. He was hiding these wounds. A moment later, Zoe handed the phone back to Leanna. "Fine. At least I can feel better now."

"Zoe…"

Zoe smiled again. "I know what you want to say, but I know our relationship. We weren't even a couple. That didn't use to matter, but now I see we're from different worlds. We should really go our own ways, but still, I hope he can escape with his life. He was my friend after all."

Leanna said nothing more. As Aidan said, this was Zoe's choice.

Zoe said, "Just go to Jamesdon and leave everything here to me."

Leanna nodded. "Keep an eye on Louis. I don't want him finding trouble with Theodore again."

"Sure. He's coming back because school is starting soon. I'll keep an eye on him. If anything happens, I'll call." As she sent Leanna off, she asked, "Will Charlotte come back?"

Leanna stared ahead. "I don't know about that."

…

On the way to Jamesdon, Leanna stared out the window and spaced out. Aidan pinched her nose. "What's wrong?"

Leanna snapped out of it. "The elders are dead, and now Philip's gone too. Now that Lachlan's the family head, Naomi might be able to…"

Aidan said, "Philip's death is going to plunge that family further into chaos."

Leanna stopped for a moment. "Why is that?"

"Most of the dissenters have died, but their families are still alive. And there are also Joseph's spies. These people didn't dare to make a move when Philip was alive, but now that he's gone, they're going to launch a coup."

"But I thought Lachlan had dealt with them."

"On the surface, yeah. The most impatient of the lot."

I see. With people like Joseph messing the family up, Jamesdon is going to be in a chaotic state for a while. She raised her head. "Wait, so Naomi and the child…"

"Don't worry. They're focused on the funeral for now, so we still have time."

Leanna heaved a sigh of relief. If that is so, then that means Aidan already has a game plan.

The plane landed two hours later, and the couple got into a car. Leanna felt that even breathing was a bit hard. "Waylen forbade us from seeing the child because the child might feel worse after we were separated again. Now that Jamesdon isn't safe anymore, can I see him and take him back to Highside?"

Aidan patted her head and said, "Yes."

A smile curled Leanna's lips and her eyes twinkled with delight. After being separated for so long, she could finally see the child again.

Aidan pursed his lips and said nothing. I don't want to ruin her mood. Best keep future affairs for the future.

More than an hour later, they finally arrived at the mountainside. It was a quiet place and the air was fresh. Leanna got out of the car and rushed into the villa. Waylen walked out of the villa at the same time.

Waylen waved at her. "It's been a while."

Leanna nodded and quickly asked, "Where's the child?"

"In a treatment session. Do you want to see him?"

"Yeah."

The third floor was converted into a lab. Even though it wasn't as big as the one in Jamesdon, they had all the equipment they needed. The doctors were working away.

Waylen led the couple to the treatment room. "You don't have to go inside. Just watch him from beyond the window."

The boy was a lot taller compared to when Waylen took those photos of him. He was sitting on a bed, working with the doctor who was administering his treatment. It looked like he was used to this.

Leanna teared up, and with a trembling voice, she asked, "How long will this treatment take?"

"At least two to three years. Maybe one to two decades."
