Chapter 316 Who Says There's No Other Suitable Candidate?

Despite Ambrose's efforts to avoid vital organs, the self-inflicted wound still inflicted severe injury. He was admitted to the hospital for surgery, and when the anesthesia wore off, Ambrose was in so much pain that his whole body trembled. After two days, the pain in Ambrose's wound finally subsided a bit. Throughout his hospital stay, only Denny was by his side. Stuart's mind was entirely occupied with the deceased Todd, and he didn't care at all about Ambrose's well-being. "How are things now?" Ambrose asked Denny weakly, half-lying on the hospital bed.

"Mr. Vale is now solely focused on seeking revenge against Alaric. He began with a comprehensive sweep of the Knight Family's estate, and afterward, he sent out people to track down Alaric's trail across all corners. It seems Mr. Vale won't rest until Alaric is dead," Denny said, unable to hide his schadenfreude.

"Todd was his treasure. Now that Todd is dead, Stuart will stop at nothing to avenge him, even if it costs him his life," Ambrose said.

Ambrose had mixed feelings about this. On one hand, he was glad that Alaric and Stuart were now mortal enemies. No matter who died, Ambrose would be happy. But on the other hand, he was upset that, as Stuart's living illegitimate child, he would never compare to the dead Todd in Stuart's heart.

"What about Alaric? Is he still alive?" Ambrose had thought Alaric wouldn't survive that night, but to his surprise, he hadn't heard any news of Alaric's death after several days.

"No. I heard Alaric is now at Serenity Heights Medical Center and is still in a coma," Denny said. "It was supposed to be a secret, but because of Alaric, the hospital mobilized all its experts, including Josep, who flew in from Country M. With so many people involved, it couldn't stay a secret."

"If so, make sure this news reaches Mr. Vale's ears," Ambrose said slowly. "Now that Alaric is in a coma, we must make sure he's out for good. We'll be in for a world of trouble when he wakes up."

"I understand, Mr. Vale," Denny quickly agreed.

In the ward, Stellan was still by the bedside, taking care of Alaric in every way, constantly wiping his face. Even though Alaric was asleep, she wanted him to be as comfortable as possible.
