Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Inviting the Wolf into the House

When Jin Ling called her assistant, he was sitting in a western restaurant, cutting into a medium-rare steak. The pink juices and tender meat made him show a fascinated expression. When he saw the caller ID, the assistant’s expression froze for a moment. He hadn’t expected the Jin family to contact him after what had happened before.

But before he could react, his conditioned reflexes built over the years made him immediately put down what he was doing and answer the call.

"Where are you now? Come to the hospital quickly, I need to talk to you."

As soon as the call connected, Jin Ling’s impatient voice came through the receiver, and the assistant’s previously stunned expression was replaced by disgust.

"May I ask what the young lady needs me for?" The assistant’s voice had a tinge of hidden impatience that he covered well.

"Grandfather had a stroke and is now unconscious in the hospital. You’d better get over here to help me steady the Jin family." Jin Ling’s tone carried an obvious command, but the assistant was entirely uninterested. His attention was captured by Jin Ling’s first sentence.

"What did you say? Chairman Jin had a stroke? How could this be?" The assistant’s eyes lit up momentarily, and his lack of emotional control in the first half of the sentence revealed some joy. Fortunately, his years of regular training allowed him to quickly adjust his state, inflecting his voice with a bit of sympathy as if he was concerned about Jin Zhengxiong’s health.

"The doctor said that after waking up, my grandfather will experience some action and speech impediments." Jin Ling’s mind was entirely preoccupied with matters concerning the Jin family and didn’t notice the assistant’s abnormal reaction. Her voice was somewhat low as she relayed the doctor’s words to the assistant.

In her heart, the assistant had been loyal to their grandfather for decades, always obliging her and her brother, as faithful as a dog in front of their grandfather. She never associated him with the current crisis the Jin family was facing and regarded him as a trustworthy existence; thus, she had no qualms about telling him what the doctor said.
