Chapter 85: Chapter 84: When There’s Work, It’s Your Job

Before departure, Elliana Lyle visited her mother’s grave again. The tombstone was new, and the surface was covered with many white chrysanthemums. In her hand was her mother’s favorite perfume lilies.

As she gently placed the bouquet down, she stared at her mother’s tombstone, her mind pondering the day Shane Southwell kidnapped her. She remembered every word Shane said clearly; every expression he made fueled her anger.

Among them was Shane’s surprising reaction, which she only realized now.

Could it be... the car accident that killed her parents in a previous life might have been orchestrated by someone else?

But she only had a slight suspicion and no evidence. It’s likely that Shane had already escaped abroad, but Shane’s father was still in the country.

She already had a plan in mind.

"Norman Bennett, let’s go."

On the way out of the cemetery, she thought about it and still felt she should visit the injured Hannah Collins. She’d been too busy these past few days.

Upon reaching the hospital, she was informed that Hannah had been transferred to North City, so it seemed she’d have to visit North City.

"Little girl, tomorrow morning we’ll take the high-speed train to North City, okay?" Norman Bennett asked.

"Ah? Why?" Elliana Lyle was stunned, thinking that a plane would be much faster; the train would take at least ten hours.

The man reached out and patted her head, "We have enough time; there’s no rush."

Back at the hotel, Elliana Lyle felt increasingly exhausted. This comforting environment seemed to have some attraction, making her want to take a nap.

At ten o’clock in the evening, downstairs at South Joy Hotel, two people were having a face-to-face conversation in a teahouse.

"Norman, you know this is our family’s business, and it really can’t be acquired. I shamelessly came to you, hoping you could... help your uncle." Shawn Lyle spoke tactfully, looking a bit troubled.

"Uncle, indeed, The Bennetts lost quite a bit with Lyle Corporation before, though I didn’t participate. I heard, after all, that you bought a sky-high-priced ice-cracked blue porcelain vase for the company, which was later reportedly accidentally broken by an employee."

Norman Bennett said this nonchalantly as he picked up a teacup, sipping leisurely, seemingly without any ulterior meaning.
