Chapter 403 Go There Myself
Seeing this, Donovan raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit confused.
Finley hadn't seen Riley in a while, so why was she suddenly having such a bad dream today?
"Landon and Winston said that once Riley wraps up her work at the research institute, she's taking them abroad," Finley said.
Finley remembered what Landon and Winston had told her at kindergarten yesterday, her little face full of disappointment.
She had thought Riley's previous words were just to placate her, and Landon and Winston had assured her they wouldn't leave.
But yesterday, they said they wouldn't be staying in the country for long.
And ever since Riley mentioned going abroad, she hadn't seen her again.
Thinking about this, she felt tears welling up again.
Hearing Finley's words, Donovan's face darkened.
According to Landon and Winston, if it weren't for this incident, Riley should already be abroad by now!
Finley tugged at Donovan's shirt and said softly, "Daddy, I don't want Riley to go."
Donovan snapped out of his thoughts and gently held her hand, "Daddy knows, sweetie. I'll talk to her."
Finley nodded, feeling sleepy again, and let out a small yawn.
Donovan tucked her back into bed, "Sleep now, Daddy will stay here with you."
After a short while, Finley turned over and fell asleep.
Watching her sleep peacefully and thinking about what she had said, Donovan felt a mix of emotions.
Once Finley was sound asleep, Donovan quietly got up and left the room, heading back to his own bedroom.
By the time he finished washing up and went to bed, it was already early morning.
Lacking sleep, Donovan woke up with a pounding headache.
When he got to the office, Paxton was already waiting at the door.
Seeing him, Paxton quickly approached, "Mr. Wilder."
Donovan nodded, his voice a bit rough, "What's up?"
Paxton handed him a document, "There's a problem with the project in S City. They want our person in charge to go there personally, but that person is currently tied up with another project. What do you think?"
Donovan glanced at it.
The issue with the project wasn't too serious; sending a project manager would suffice.
But thinking about the location, Donovan's mind started working. He said to Paxton, "I'll get back to you in a bit."
Paxton nodded.
Back in his office, Donovan took out his phone and called Dalton.
On the other end, Dalton had just finalized a time with the herbal medicine supplier in S City and was about to call Riley when Donovan's call came in.
Dalton answered right away.
"Have you arranged the time with the herbal medicine supplier in S City? If not..." Donovan said in a low voice.
Before he could finish, Dalton interrupted with a laugh, "You're more anxious than Dr. Monroe; she hasn't even pushed me yet."
Donovan responded with a noncommittal grunt.
"Just finalized it. I was about to call Dr. Monroe," Dalton said.
Hearing this, Donovan asked, "When?"
Dalton glanced at the calendar, "In two days. What's wrong?"
Donovan nodded, "Got it."
Without further explanation, he hung up and called Paxton in.
"Book me a flight to S City for tomorrow. I'll go there myself."
Paxton gave Donovan a puzzled look. He had only sought Donovan's approval because the matter required his decision.
As for the severity of the project issue, he knew it wasn't serious enough to warrant Donovan's personal involvement.
But since Donovan had given the order, he didn't dare to question it and quickly agreed.
