Chapter 406 Make Sure He Is Fine
Looking at Yuliana, whose eyes lowered and whose look was absent-minded, Wesley could easily figure out what she was thinking
“You go back first. I’ll arrange it.” After a pause, he added, “As for Christopher, you can rest assured. When Lofbury’s access control loosens up a bit, I will arrange for someone to send him to Druobridge Hospital.”
Yuliana was a little curious and she looked up at him subconsciously.
Wesley smiled and said, “I know you’re worried, so I’ll make sure he leaves Druobridge well and alive.”
Yuliana did not feel better when she heard those words. She only felt more complicated. She always felt that she owed Wesley more and more but did not know how to repay him.
That was not the original intention of her being with Wesley.
She would rather he get angry with her than always consider her in everything.
However, in the end, she did not say anything. She just nodded and responded meekly.
Yuliana had never gone to see Christopher, but Wesley had been there twice. He told Yuliana about Christopher’s situation when he returned.
She had started to have a fever again and was started sleep-talking.
However, Wesley did not tell her what she raved about in her sleep.
Wesley injected her with some medicine again. After noon, her temperature had dropped a little, but she was still unconscious.
Yuliana did not ask him much.
Wesley booked a night flight for Yuliana and arranged a car to take her to Druobridge Airport in the afternoon.
Before leaving Lofbury, Yuliana made a phone call to Thomas, but he was busy. She just told Thomas that she was leaving Lofbury today. Soon, Thomas arranged for Liam to send something over.
They were local specialties of Lofbury.
Yuliana did not want to accept them. As the saying went, gifts blinded the eyes.
She did not want to owe anyone any favors.
Noticing Yuliana refused to accept the specialties, Liam called Thomas again. After a persuasive conversation, Thomas convinced Yuliana to take the items.
In the end, Yuliana only accepted a few items that were locally produced by the farmers and returned all the packaged goods.
Liam mentioned the resort development project again to Yuliana. Compared with Thomas, Liam appeared much more immature in front of Yuliana. His ideas were clearly written on his face.
Yuliana did not give a clear answer, only saying that the matter still needed to be discussed internally within the company.
Although the project did not require a large investment, running a company is not charity, and profitability must be considered. The news of Lofbury’s recent incident would surely spread quickly and accurately in a fixed circle.
Those days, Yuliana had noticed that most of the tourists who came there had left and the town was noticeably more deserted today.
Nevertheless, from her personal point of view, she still liked that place.
The scenery there was beautiful, and the people were simple and kind.
However, looking at their conditions, she felt a little sad. There were many handicraft makers on the street. They spent a lot of time and effort making handicrafts that only sold for a few dollars, but those handicrafts were difficult to be sold. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Most of the handicraft makers were elderly people with white hair, wearing faded clothes, and their styles were like those of decades ago.
Yuliana knew that there were many people at the bottom of society who lived in difficult conditions. In the past, she had only stumbled upon them online inadvertently and felt comforted by donating some money, then left it all behind.
Nevertheless, this time, she saw them with her own eyes, especially those whose turbid eyes were full of desire, and yet they were hesitant to speak when they looked at her.
It made Yuliana feel indescribably awful.
Therefore, she did not give Liam a clear reply and said that she needed to discuss it internally within the company when she returned.
After seeing Liam, Yuliana went upstairs to pack her luggage.
Wesley had arranged a car to arrive at four o’clock and it would take about three hours to Druobridge Airport.
The flight was at 8:30 pm.
It was only three o’clock after she packed her luggage.
Yuliana sat down and was idle for a moment.
She tended to get lost in her thoughts when she did nothing.
After accompanying her downstairs to meet Liam, Wesley went to take a call and left the hotel. He had not returned after a while.
She picked up her phone and flipped through Wesley’s WhatsApp. She hesitated for a moment before calling Wesley through WhatsApp.
It rang for a long time.
Yuliana was about to hang up when Wesley answered.
She was surprised and asked tentatively, “Did I disturb you?”
“How could your call be a disturbance?” Wesley’s voice was low, and he asked, “Have you done talking with Liam?”
“Yes, I have.” Yuliana said, “I’ve been back in my hotel room for a while, and I’ve finished packing.”
Wesley was silent for a moment and said, “The car won’t arrive for another hour. The town is much better today. Do you want to come out and have a walk around?”
“Sure!” Yuliana agreed happily.
Wesley said, “I’m almost at the hotel. I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
“Okay,” said Yuliana.
After hanging up the phone, Yuliana gave herself a quick clean-up and went out with a small cross- body bag. The two of them wandered around the town. Yuliana went to the old town and bought a lot of handicrafts, planning to give them to her friends or colleagues in the company, making the trip worthwhile.
Before leaving, Wesley asked, “Christopher woke up earlier. Do you want to say goodbye to him?”
