Chapter 435 It's Not Your Fault
Harvey's surgery lasted for a full five hours before it came to an end. Thankfully, Harvey survived the
ordeal, but he was in a coma indefinitely. In simple words, he could well fall into a vegetative state.
It was a huge blow to Christopher, who found it difficult to accept that his energetic grandfather had
fallen into a coma in a day.
Standing by his side, Jenny looked at Harvey in the ICU with complicated emotions, and she was
somehow riddled with guilt. Had she not visited, she would not have caused a misunderstanding for
Ben and Evelyn, and Harvey might not have ended up in this condition.
Feeling sorry, she apologized, "I'm sorry. I..."
It's not your fault." Christopher had calmed down by now. He was not an unreasonable man.
Mr. Spade will wake up soon," she said to him out of courtesy, even though the words might not bring
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim any comfort.
’Mm." He left the ICU entrance and headed for the hospital exit.
She followed closely behind him with concern. "Where are you going?"
"To make them pay." Filled with spite, he clenched his jaw tight.
Jenny was worried but didn't know how to talk him out of it. Perhaps, stopping him from releasing his
emotions might be more damaging.
Christopher paused and turned to her with slight embarrassment. "I’m afraid Grandpa couldn't tell you
the truth given his condition. What do you plan to do now?"
It's fine. I came to Bardoff City to run some errands for the Walkers anyway. I’ll scout an office location
for their company. As for other matters

After giving it some thought, she added with a smile, "Let's discuss them later. Maybe it's a blessing to
be kept in the dark."
It was a pity that she couldn't get her answers from Harvey, but since she couldn't change the situation,
she'd rather accept the reality.
"Okay. Shall I send you back to the hotel?" he asked.
She shook her head. "It's fine! Do what you have to do. You'll have a lot to deal with. There might be
fights in the family after Mr. Spade's hospitalization. You don't need to worry about me for now. I can
look after myself."
Christopher seemed to have grown up overnight. He was sensible enough not to insist and said, "Sure,
I'll get going. Call me if you need anything."
Okay." She nodded and watched as he left.
When his car was out of sight, she let out a deep sigh and took a last glance at the hospital. Since
Christopher had posted some staff at the hospital, she wouldn't need to take care of anything there.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe decided to get started on her mission to help the Walkers. With that in mind, she hailed a cab and
left.
At Bardoff Airport, Alec listened to Vincent's updates while leaving the terminal. When they hopped into
the car outside the airport, Vincent managed to reconnect to the internet and gasped, "Oh no! Harvey
Spade is in hospital."
Hearing that, Alec grabbed the tablet from Vincent and carefully scrolled through the news. A moment
later, he put on a grave and cold expression. ’ Call her and ask her where she is."
Vincent had an idea after he took out his phone. "Mr. Faust, why don't you make the call yourself?”
Alec responded with a murderous glare, and Vincent promptly dialed Jenny's number without further
questions. "I'll call her!"
Alas, Jenny missed the calls because she was busy discussing details of office rental in Bardoff City.
"She didn't pick up..." Vincent reported feebly as he braced for a storm.
Contrary to his anticipation, Alec sighed gently and said, "Let's get to the hotel for now."
