Chapter 458 He Dotes on Her
Kenneth smiled, and offered, "Mr. Levelt, there's no need for you to thank me. Feel free to express your gratitude to my wife instead. I trust that in my absence, you all will look after her. Please ensure she isn't overwhelmed with tasks. I wouldn't want her to feel exhausted."
Kenneth looked affectionately at Sandy because he loved her deeply.
Sandy went from being initially surprised to becoming shy, contemplating, 'He didn't mention this to me! Is he planning to surprise me? I am genuinely happy and surprised.'
At that moment, Sandy felt like her heart was melting. She immersed herself in sweetness.
"Mr. Hamilton, you are truly a rare and good husband. Rest assured, I will make sure all the doctors take care of Sandy. She will never feel tired," Jason said happily and promised.
Kenneth smiled, and replied, "Mr. Levelt, your promise puts me at ease. I trust you to take care of Sandy. Let me have my assistant come over with a contract about our collaboration."
"All right, thank you," Jason said.
Kenneth nodded at Jason. After staring at Zephyr's face for a second, Kenneth turned away.
"Nora, help me take care of Sandy. I'm leaving first," Kenneth said.
Nora smiled and said, "I know. Drive slowly."
"All right," Kenneth nodded and fixed Sandy's hair.
"I'm leaving. I won't allow you to feel tired," Kenneth said gently, causing Sandy to become even gentler.
"I know," Sandy said.
Kenneth looked at Sandy, and asked, "What do you want for lunch? I'll bring you."
"No. You should focus on your work. You don't need to worry about me," Sandy refused, knowing that Kenneth was busy.
Kenneth smiled without saying anything. He turned and left.
Watching them chatting sweetly, Zephyr couldn't hide his pain.
Zephyr thought, 'I once believed their love was lacking, but now it appears they are truly devoted to each other. Kenneth showers Sandy with affection, and Sandy reciprocates her love for Kenneth.
Zephyr felt like his heart was being squeezed by an invisible hand, making it difficult for him to breathe.
Zephyr quietly gazed at Sandy.
Seeing Zephyr becoming distressed, Nora sighed and intentionally walked in front of Sandy to prevent Zephyr from looking at her.
"Sandy, you were flaunting your love with Kenneth this morning! If Kenneth brings you here again next time, you better let me know in advance because I need to eat a little less breakfast. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll vomit," Nora joked.
Hearing Nora's joke, Sandy burst into laughter.
"Nora, you're not allowed to make fun of me," Sandy teased.
Nora laughed and said, "All right! I won't dare to make fun of you because I'm afraid Kenneth will scold me."
"You naughty girl," Sandy said sweetly.
Nora laughed, and inquired, "Mr. Levelt, should we start the meeting now?"
Nora walked toward Jason, not giving Zephyr and Sandy a chance to exchange glances.
Jason instructed, "Yes. All of you, go to the meeting room."
Jason looked at Sandy and Nora. "Sandy, take it slow. Don't slip. Nora, help Sandy walk."
Jason was delighted to secure ample funding for his research and took great care of Sandy.
"All right," Nora said with a smile, guiding Sandy forward.
As Nora and Sandy passed by, Zephyr smiled bitterly and followed them slowly.
Zephyr didn't want to do anything but just wanted to catch another glimpse of Sandy.
In Houston, Aaron was on his way to the branch office for work.
An accident had occurred at a clothing factory located in the suburbs of Houston.
Yesterday, a sudden fire broke out in the clothing factory warehouse.
As a result, five people were severely injured, and over a dozen others sustained minor injuries.
Fortunately, they were rescued in time, and the five severely injured individuals were now out of danger.
Since Aaron took charge of Gordon's group, he had never encountered such a major accident.
Yesterday, Aaron determined that aging wires caused the fire. It seemed like an accident, but Aaron knew that someone had intentionally set the fire.
"Mr. Gordon will be here shortly," Noe, sitting in the driver's seat, answered a phone call. After a brief conversation, Noe hung up.
"Mr. Gordon, according to the factory manager Peter, the families of the injured employees have arrived at the factory. They are currently demanding an explanation from Peter," Noe informed him.
Aaron's expression darkened with suspicion. Aaron speculates, 'Is it a coincidence that they showed up together? Or is someone instructing them to do so?'
Meanwhile, Olivia boarded a plane headed for Houston. Arthur had assigned Roy, a bodyguard, to accompany Olivia for her protection.
Three hours later, the plane landed. Roy escorted Olivia into a taxi and went to the clothing factory.
As the car drove on, Olivia felt numbness in her butt, but they had not yet reached the factory.
The car traveled to a remote area. Olivia looked at the nearby woods with some disdain.
'Why is the Gordon's group's branch office located in such a remote place? Too bad! The point is, how can I run into Aaron and leave a lasting impression on him?' Olivia pondered throughout the journey.
As they neared the destination, Olivia saw several young people with dyed hair gathered by the roadside, smoking and speaking crudely. Olivia suddenly had an idea.
"Your destination is up ahead," the taxi driver slowed down by the roadside.
Roy nodded and paid the fare. After he got out, he opened the car door for Olivia. Stepping out, Olivia shivered in the cold wind, clutching her coat, and said to Roy, "Could you help me a favor?"
"What are you doing?” Roy asked.
"Help me find some renegades," Roy was surprised.
Roy was surprised and asked, "Ms. Olivia, why do you want me to find renegades?"
"Do as I say! Of course, I want Aaron to come and save me!" Olivia said.
She pondered, 'If Aaron sees me being harassed by renegades in a remote village, he will surely come to my rescue. If he saves me, I will have a reason to entangle him in return. Oh, I am so clever.'
Roy hesitated, and tried to reason with her, "But Mr. Arthur told me not to leave you. You should come with me."
Olivia became impatient. "Stop babbling! Since I asked you to find renegades, find them! Quickly!" she demanded.
Roy could only obey her command.
"Do I go find renegades now?"
Olivia pressured him, "Hurry up."
After Roy left, Olivia looked at the luxurious clothing factory and pondered. She walked over and knocked on the security guard's door.
"Hello. Is Mr. Gordon there?" she asked.
The security guard was a fifty-year-old man. His name was Steven.
He nodded. "Yes. Who are you?" he inquired.
Olivia's eyes lit up. "I am Mr. Gordon's sister-in-law. I am here to see him," she explained.
Steven paused and looked at Olivia suspiciously, and remarked, "You are Mr. Gordon's sister-in-law? I don't recall him getting married."
