Chapter 146 The Reason

Simon took Erin to the underground parking lot of the hotel. His friend Luther had temporarily lent him a black Jeep as a means of transportation in Fleuverton. Shortly after they got in the car, Simon received a call from his father, Andrew.

He frowned slightly. If Andrew was calling at such a late hour, it must be something urgent or important. Without much thought, he answered the call.

“Are you currently in Fleuverton, Simon?” Andrew asked straightforwardly.

Simon replied, “Yes, I am.”

Andrew commanded. “Come back as quickly as possible! Your uncle didn’t inform us earlier, but your grandfather had a stroke and is currently in the intensive care unit. His condition is very critical!”

Simon was shocked to find out about this, and his palms grew cold. If the situation wasn’t severe, his father wouldn’t have asked him to rush back overnight.

“Okay, I’ll hurry back,” he promised.

“I’m sorry about your grandfather.” She was a little conflicted as she expressed her sympathy.

Simon didn’t respond and started driving. After a while, he said, “You don’t need to apologize. My grandfather’s condition isn’t your fault. But after we arrive at the hospital, I’m afraid I won’t be able to accompany you to visit your mother because I’ll need to rush back too.”

With a wave of her hand, Erin said, “You don’t have to accompany me. Let’s each go back to see our respective families.”

Simon glanced at her from the side and said, “I pray that our family members are alright.”

“They will be fine. They have to be fine.” As Erin spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. She couldn’t stand thinking about her mother, Cherry.

The mere thought of her mother brought her to tears.
