Chapter 646 Benjamin's Tears
The feeling of suffocation came swiftly and went just quickly, but the lingering effect was strong.
Sarah clutched her chest, fear flickering in her eyes. She remembered feeling something similar on the day Antonio's body was found.
But she lifted her head, her gaze sweeping over everyone present.
The scene was filled with laughter and joy. Kevin and Brian were both healthy. Brady was in the hospital, on the verge of waking up, and no more villains would harm him.
These were all the people she loved, and they would be fine.
It seemed she was overthinking.
"Mommy?"
Brian noticed her uneasy expression and asked nervously, "Are you feeling okay?"
Sarah lowered her hand, momentarily easing her mind, and pointedly explained, "I'm fine. I was just lost in thought, wondering what gift you might have gotten me."
Brian knew his mother wasn't telling the truth but didn't ask further, his eyes showing a hint of determination.
'It must be because of the trouble caused by the Harrington Group.' he thought.
Now that he was back, he would definitely make Benjamin suffer.
The night of the family reunion passed in laughter and joy.
It was the next morning when Sarah saw the news and learned that Benjamin had been knocked unconscious by a falling object at the construction site the previous day.
Everyone else was having breakfast at the dining table. Brian had a habit of watching the morning news, so he was in the living room with her and naturally saw the news as well.
'Benjamin! Who would have thought you would fall before they even take action? It is all Benjamin's fault for bullying Mommy! If it weren't for him, Mommy wouldn't be so exhausted and still unhappy because of those matters! Even if he looks like Daddy, so what? He isn't even worth a single strand of Daddy hair!'
The more Brian thought about it, the angrier he became. His tone was like an adult scolding a child. "Mommy, since the company needs help, why don't you come to me?"
Sarah was taken aback and felt a bit embarrassed.
She knew Brian was always very capable and had a great talent for business, with many ideas of his own.
"Mommy just wanted to lighten your burden a bit," she said. Her voice betrayed a hint of guilt. "Brain, don't be mad, okay?"
Brian, of course, knew that was what Sarah was thinking.
It didn't matter; he would step in any way.
He couldn't really be angry with Sarah over this. Thinking it over, he added. "Then in the future, if something like this happens, you can't keep it from me."
Sarah readily agreed. "It's a deal!"
Brian seized the opportunity. "Then let me handle this matter. If we need to find another company to cooperate with, it might as well be my BrianTech Solutions Inc!"
Feeling somewhat helpless, Sarah didn't object. "Now that you're back, I won't seek other partnerships. I'll leave this matter to you, and I'll rest easy."
He thought, 'That's more like it.'
Brian was satisfied and opened his computer in a mature manner.
"Then, Mommy, you should take this time to rest. The baby in your belly needs rest too."
Sarah was amused by him. "Alright, Mr. Miller."
Brian moved quickly. By that morning, he had arranged for the finance department to initiate the investment process, playing a crucial role in the projects the Valencia family was undertaking.
Finally, things were turning around, and all the company's employees breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon after, another piece of exciting news arrived.
At 2 PM, BrianTech Solutions Inc held a press conference, inviting all major media outlets to announce their cooperation with the Valencia family group.
The person in charge also emphasized that their CEO absolutely believed in the corporate style of the Valencia family group and Ms. Miller's personal conduct, offering one hundred percent support for Sarah and the Valencia family's development.
The CEO of BrianTech Solutions Inc was a mysterious figure, a well-known fact. This was the first time this enigmatic president had publicly expressed such admiration for a company and an individual.
For a while, the internet was full of speculations and discussions. What was the relationship between BrianTech Solutions Inc and the Valencia family?
Such unconditional trust and support were exceedingly rare!
What was the relationship between the mysterious CEO and Sarah?
BrianTech Solutions Inc was an internationally renowned company. With their intervention, other companies and the public couldn't remain indifferent. It wasn't long before the Valencia family's stock prices soared, and the previous negative rumors about the Valencia family had all but vanished.
The Harrington Group quickly caught wind of the news but was caught off guard by BrianTech Solutions Inc's sudden move.
The suppression of the Valencia family had been underway, but now the Valencia family had suddenly brought in a powerful partner. Should they continue?
Offending BrianTech Solutions Inc might lose more than they gain.
The company's higher-ups couldn't make a decision and had to report the matter to Isabella.
But she was entirely preoccupied with Benjamin and had no time or energy to deal with these issues. She interrupted before they could finish speaking. "You can't even handle this? Is the company paying you for charity?"
Benjamin was still lying unconscious in the hospital, and these people had come directly to the hospital.
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and she directly dismissed them.
"Go back to where you came from. If you can't handle it, just go home!!"
The visitors had no choice but to leave dejectedly.
Daniel was also worried about Benjamin's condition and stayed at the hospital to help.
He knew that the company's issues weren't easy to resolve, but the most important thing now was that Mr. Harrington must wake up first; otherwise, the morale would remain unstable.
Fortunately, by that evening, Benjamin woke up.
Isabella had been by his bedside the entire time. Her haggard face finally showed a smile when she saw him open his eyes. "Benjamin, you're finally awake!"
As she spoke, tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.
'Thank goodness, nothing serious happened.'
Benjamin stared at the white ceiling, feeling as if he were in a different world, despite Isabella's worried voice in his ears.
He knew he had slept for a long time, not because of severe injuries, but because he had been dreaming again.
It was dream similar to the last one.
The only difference was that the scenes in the dream were more vivid, each image switching back and forth as if they had truly happened.
In just one day and night, it felt like he had gone through the most important moments of his life.
There were more regrets.
And all of those moments were with Sarah.
How could this be?
Benjamin didn't understand why he would dream of these things, but a voice inside him grew stronger, insisting that the scenes in the dream were not fantasies but real memories that belonged to him.
If that were true, how absurd it all was.
He stared blankly at the ceiling, tears silently trailing down his face.
Even he didn't notice it.
