The next morning at the First Hospital, the rest of the Grey family had already left, leaving only Chloe and Joel behind.

Despite how the couple had tried to see their daughter, they were not given the chance until that morning.

They stared helplessly at their daughter, who was in a deep sleep.

"Please, get well soon, Bianca. I can't bear to see you in this condition," Chloe whispered, sniffing back tears.

Joel, who was next to his wife, patted her shoulder to console her. "Don't worry too much, Chloe. The doctors said she would be fine. Let's be hopeful."

"Okay, I hope so." Chloe rested her head on her husband's shoulder, her mind filled with thoughts.

Just then, Bianca coughed and her eyes slowly opened.

"Huh?! She's awake!"

"My daughter has finally opened her eyes!" Chloe exclaimed with joy.

"I told you she would be fine." Joel was happy to see his daughter recover as well.

Bianca stared at her surroundings, confused about where she was, until Chloe quickly explained.

"You must be wondering how you got here. It's a complicated story, but what matters is that you are awake." She was cautious about disclosing the full details to her.

"How are you feeling now, Bianca?" Joel quickly asked.

Bianca stretched and sat upright on the bed by herself before responding. "I feel better. I'm only having a slight headache."

"Sorry, my cupcake. By the time you get enough rest, the headache will clear up completely," Joel assured her.

Bianca nodded slowly and whispered, "Thank you, Daddy."

Chloe turned to her husband and said, "Why don't you ask the doctor when she will be discharged?"

"That's true. Father has also called me to ask about it."

Joel was about to turn to leave when Bianca suddenly stopped him.

"Wait, Daddy."

Bianca's face looked worried.

This was not for any reason other than hearing Joel mention his grandfather, Trent Grey.

He was the one who had forced her into the marriage with the Kims.

She knew his concern about her discharge was solely to ensure she was successfully tethered to the spoiled heir of the Kim family—a marriage in which she had no interest.

"What is it, Bianca?" Joel asked softly.

She looked her parents in the eyes and asked an unexpected question. "Mom, Dad, where is Jason?"

The couple was stunned.

They frowned, wondering why she was asking about him.

"Oh, you mean that troublemaker? We already sent him away last night, and I'm sure the Kim family must have caught him and given him the punishment he deserves."

"What?! Why did you send him away?!" Bianca shoved the blanket aside as she screamed at her parents.

Chloe and Joel exchanged a confused look.

"What do you mean by 'why'? Did you really expect us to keep a troublemaker with us?"

"Did you want us to share in the consequences of his actions?"

Chloe and Joel flooded Bianca with questions.

"Mom, Dad, what are you saying?! Do you want to deny that everything he did yesterday wasn't for me?!"

Bianca was not taking it lightly.

"You never sent him to cause such trouble! He did that of his own free will. Let him face the punishment alone," Chloe declared with no emotion.

Bianca was devastated to hear her parents say such things.

Realizing nothing she said would change their minds, she stood up and declared, "I'm going to look for him. I don't want to see anyone try to stop me."

"Rubbish!"

"What has gotten into your head?!"

"You want to look for who?!"

"A troublemaker?!"

Chloe and her husband instantly blocked Bianca's path. They were not about to let her leave.

Bianca was deeply frustrated and was about to burst past them when someone suddenly spoke from the entrance of the ward.

"Darling, you don't have to fight Mom and Dad. I have been here with you throughout the night, and I am going nowhere."

Joel and his wife could not believe the voice they had just heard.

Turning to discover it was Jason, the couple went livid.

"Didn't I warn you that I never wanted to see you again?!"

"What have you come here to do?!"

They were about to pounce on Jason when Bianca screamed, "Hold it!"

The room fell into a dead silence, and Chloe and Joel froze.

They watched as Bianca walked past them toward Jason with an unreadable expression.

"Darling..." Jason whispered sweetly as his wife walked closer.

He was about to take a step toward her when Bianca delivered a sharp slap to his face.

SMACK!

    "My observation was right," Hugo Carlos muttered to himself. Then he said to the person, "Since you have confirmed it, just leave the rest to me." "Alright, sir," the guy dressed in black attire answered and vanished from the scene. At this moment at the Hudson Manor, Andy had just relayed the good news to Thiago, and he felt a pinch of relief in his heart upon hearing it. Even though he wished the divine doctor could come around right away, he was afraid that wasting too much time might be dangerous. He still had a tinge of peace of mind concerning the matter. Dr. Wesley had the others say his father still had a couple of hours to hang on. As for that, meeting the divine doctor later that evening wouldn't be bad. Then Thiago got up and thanked the old man. "Mr. Hudson, as long as my father really gets healed by this doctor, all the promises I made earlier remain my responsibility to fulfill." "It's no problem, Mr. Tyrone. I advise you to arrive earlier in the evening. H

    Andy was slightly taken aback to hear Thiago say that. Of course, he had always known that there were a lot of people who had been looking forward to meeting the Hand of God since he arrived at Estava. However, for the fact that the Hand of God chose to make his identity a secret, no matter how powerful the family is, if the Hand of God never makes himself reachable to them, they can never find him. But for someone like Andy, he knew getting the chance to be healed by the Hand of God was such a great privilege for him. But that doesn't warrant him to disclose his identity when he never chose to do so by himself. Andy found that to be over the board. Then, he said to Thiago, "Mr. Tyrone, I will be truthful with you. I would have liked to be of help, but it's beyond my capabilities." Thiago's face frowned slightly as seriousness flashed across his face at that moment. In reality, he never knew the person who healed Andy was the famous Hand of God. After all, there are a lo

    The next day, Andy was seen making attempts to have a walk around their Manor. Even though the attempts were a bit difficult at first, he was able to take a few steps in the end. After several practices, the old man was so happy with the improvement in his condition. It was only the third day after the Hand of God had treated him and he had begun to take a few steps already after being told he would never be able to walk ever again in his life. How more miraculous could a heart-wrenching problem turn for the better other than this? Andy had just taken a break to rest since he began the exercise when his son and grandson began to motivate him. "Grandpa, you should have a little rest first, then we will continue as soon as you feel good enough to try again." "I really can't wait to see you walk just as effortlessly as you used to in the past, Father. And here we are, just an inch closer to achieving it." Yul and his son were over the moon as they expressed their minds to the

    After so many hours of effort by Thiago, he returned to his car later that evening, looking very disappointed. He didn't know whether his disappointment should be about not having enough connections to be able to meet such a prominent person as the Hand of God, or whether his disappointment should be about the fate that was their share. The middle-aged man put in his best efforts today and visited a lot of people in his connections who he believed might be able to help him, but they were all helpless as well. This made him so frustrated with himself. He blamed himself, thinking that if he had had better connections, such a feat wouldn't have been difficult for him. However, he wished that fate could have been nice to him too; probably, he wouldn't have been in such a situation in the first place. After the bitterness sank into Thiago, he decided to return home. He had just entered when Dr. Wesley, who had been waiting for his arrival, rushed to him. "Mr. Tyrone..." T

    Throughout that night, Thiago put his efforts into making calls to his connections to find the Hand of God. Sadly, all his efforts yielded no result, just as usual. The night passed by so quickly, and it was a new morning. Thiago was about to embark on his journey to deeply search for wherever the Hand of God might be to reach him when he received a message from his colleagues informing him that they would be having an important meeting that morning. At first, Thiago thought of kicking the meeting aside, as his father's health was more important at this moment than anything else. However, having another thought about it, he remembered this is a crucial time for them to seal the deal with the Jason Group. His absence in such an important meeting might be quite lethal. This was quite difficult for him. The matter was pushing him into a very tight corner. But since the meeting would only last at most for just a few hours, he felt that that shouldn't hurt his other plan of searc

    Dr. Wesley's face frowned slightly at the question. "Mr. Tyrone, the Hand of God is really the most miraculous doctor I have ever heard about. But I'm afraid if he really can help your father due to how severe his condition is." Ah! The little hope that was about to creep into Thiago's heart vanished immediately, and the previous worried look on his face reappeared. "Dr. Wesley, are you saying even the Hand of God can cure my father? Is his condition really totally out of hand to such an extent?" The doctor sighed deeply before he responded. "I will be truthful with you, Mr. Tyrone. Based on my knowledge, your father only has just 72 hours more to live. However, if we could get the Hand of God's intervention, maybe he could extend old Mr. Tyrone's life by a few weeks, or if lucky, by a few months." Even though Thiago wasn't really happy to hear this, he still felt a bit more charged up than he was previously. What he really wished for was for his father to get completely
