Chapter 62 Obedient


    Riley’s palm was gently clenched into a fist under the nket, “Euan, I had said that we are just


    colleagues, he is just my leader.”


    A tint of cold aura was shown on Euan''s face, “If that’s the case, it seems that it has nothing to do with


    you no matter how I treat him.”


    He would do what he had said. He would do something cruel if he wanted to do it to William, “Leave


    him alone. I’vee back as you wished. Shouldn’t you let him go since you have achieved your


    goal?”


    Thinking of her cuddled in William’s arms, Euan wanted him to be gone forever!


    “Huh!” He hummed coldly to show his disdain and anger.


    Since retreating was not the way, then maybe she should change her way to deal with it, “If you want to


    do it, then do it. You don’t have to threaten me with this anymore.”


    Euan hated that Riley could easily make him angry with such a simple and careless attitude.


    A monotonous ringtone rang from the phone, breaking the awkward atmosphere between them. Only


    Euan still used such old fashioned mobile phone ringtone.


    Euan frowned. He took his phone and went to the balcony in the ward. Then he answered.


    He was holding the mobile phone with some strength with his long fingers. From Riley’s angle of view,


    she could see the handsome side view of his face and heard his piercing cold voice.


    “Speak.”


    Riley trembled when he said that.


    “What about the Watsons?”


    Watsons? Was the Watsons he mentioned just now her family?


    Riley tried to pay more attention to listen clearly, but Euan moved to the edge of the balcony and pulled


    up the ss door with his long arm.


    The voices werepletely cut off by the transparent ss door.


    Euan did not move a bit. Even his gesture of holding the phone did not change. The fingers on his


    other hand were tapping on the balcony fence rhythmically.


    Riley felt suspicious. Euan mentioned the Watson family. Had anything happened to the Watson


    family? Was it about their business? Or was it about other matters?


    The Watson’s business condition had been bad. Freya and Lauren had directly asked for money, not


    just once or twice. Was there a greater problem now?


    After cracking her head about the matter for some time, Euan was back after finishing the call.


    Riley pretended that she did not hear anything, and Euan did not mention anything either, “We’ll rest


    here today and go back to JD city tomorrow.”


    Those were thest words that Euan had said to her in the next two hours because Euan had left after


    that and a female nurse was guarding in the ward.


    Both of them stared at each other. Riley could just take out her phone and scroll it.


    When she tapped and opened her WeChat, Riley sent a crying emoji to Sarah.


    “My dear, you are online atst! Why can’t I get through when I call you? I saw that you were sent to


    the AIDS vige by the hospital. Damn, have your superior in the hospital lost his mind!”


    Well…


    From the words, Riley could imagine Sarah’s exaggerating and fierce gestures when she said that.


    “It might be because there’s no signal in the mountain vige. I’m now in some other ce, and I’ll be


    back to JD city tomorrow.”


    “Great! That is good news! It’s good that you have left that ce! My God, I was scared to death!”


    “There’s another bad news. I was unfortunately injured while performing a treatment. I’m lying in the


    hospital now, needing some care. Remember to bring me some chicken bone soup and turtle soup that


    your mom made.”


    “Fuck! Where are you now? I’ll go and meet you now. Is your injury serious? Is anyone apanying


    you?”


    Riley chuckled, “Yes…but…”


    “But what? What do you mean?”


    “It’s Euan…”


    That end of the call was silent for some time, and Sarah was obviously calmer and not as exaggerating


    as before. She was obedient again, “Hmm, I’ll bring you the soupter. You should rest. Take care.”


    Thatss! She definitely couldn’t be her backup in critical moments.


    What was more unfortunate was that the call from the George’s mansion came in about an hourter!


    Seeing that the call was from the George’s mansion, Riley almost threw her phone away. The call from


    the mansion would be either from Anika or Jakub. Both of them were people who she did not dare to


    provoke.


    After calming down and taking a few deep breaths, she answered the call, “Hello…”


    Riley grasped on the nket nervously as she quietly waited for the person from the other side to


    speak. Finally, a voice came in after she waited for a while.


    “It’s me.”


    Thump! Thump! Thump!


    Jakub’s firm voice was heard. Riley almost fell off the bed. She used all her might to hold the phone


    still. Her palm was drenched with sweat.


    “Dad…Is there anything you want to talk to me about?”


    Riley lowered her voice subconsciously. That was the first time she received a phone call from her


    father-inw since she and Euan got married. The nervousness and pressure that she was


    experiencing at that moment were obvious.


    At that moment, Jakub was in the study in the George’s mansion. The stratagem and profundity that he


    had umted from his business life all these years could be seen in his unpredictable eyes.


    Hendrix was like a kid standing in front of his work desk made from Phoebe Zhennan wood.


    There was not just a difference in age between Hendrix and Jakub.


    “Did Hendrix do anything recently?”


    Huh?


    Jakub called her just to speak about Hendrix? Riley was in a dilemma. Should she tell Jakub as


    Hendrix’s sister-inw?


    Thinking about it, she felt that she should not tell him. If what Hendrix had done was known by Jakub,


    he would be beaten even if Jakub loved him most.


    Riley said with a gentle chuckle, “Dad, Hendrix had just returned to this country. We had not met


    frequently. I’m not very sure about his life.”


    Hendrix, who was standing at a corner was silently thanking his sister-inw. ‘Riley, you’re the best


    sister-inw!’


    Hendrix took a deep breath. He felt like he had escaped death.


    However, Jakub was not someone who would easily be deceived, “You are the eldest daughter-inw


    of the George’s family. You’ll be managing the whole George family in the future. Hiding and tolerating


    the mistakes are not good for you or anyone in our George’s family.”


    “Dad…I know what you mean, but …I’m not sure about what happened. Why don’t you ask Hendrix


    personally?”


    Breathe, breathe, breathe. Rx.


    Jakub looked at Hendrix. His stare was fierce, and he continued asking, “Tell me the truth, don’t make


    me repeat the question!”


    Riley clenched on her teeth, so did Hendrix.


    Confrontation, silence, and the tense atmosphere surrounded them.


    Riley was in a tensed condition. Would Hendrix be beaten to death if she told him?


    Hendrix’s act could be taken as a misdeed to her, his sister-inw.


    Damn, these really made her upset.


    “Dad, I was not calm enough and caused what happened at the party. It had nothing to do with Riley.”


    “Did I ask you to speak?”


    Riley was dumbfounded. The father and son were undergoing a confrontation, and he was asking her


    to be the third party? It was the way the George family deal with things.


    So, it was about the party…


    It seemed that the Old Master of the George family had known about the matter. Of course, there were


    many people present that day, and the business circle was so small that news spread fast.


    “Dad, I identally fell into the swimming pool that day. Hendrix was just trying to save me. Don’t be


    angry or me him.”


    “I am teaching my son a lesson. You are not qualified to give me advice.”


    The word made Riley feel embarrassed. Yes, who was she to give him advice?


    “It seems that it was Hendrix’s fault. Okay.”


    Just as Jakub was putting down the phone after he finished his words, the word he was saying to


    Hendrix was heard. He was cruel and resolute as if he was not a father but an enemy.


    “Kneel!”


    That shocked Riley, and she dropped the phone she was holding. It fell to the ground from the bed with


    a bang.


    What would Jakub do to Hendrix? Would he kill him, punish him or shoot him?


    Just as Riley was thinking about the way that the boss of a gang would treat his men who had betrayed


    him, a tall figure stood in front of her bed. She stared at her phone, it stopped beside the ck shining


    shoes. She looked up and saw Euan’s cold face.


    “Are you a ghost? Don’t you sound when you walk? It’s scary!”


    “It is because you are guilty.”


    Knowing that it was useless speaking to him since Riley’s drip was empty, so she wanted to get down


    and pick up her phone. Unexpectedly, Euan kicked her phone to a two-meter distance away with just a


    light kick.


    Riley was annoyed!


    “Euan, what’s wrong with you? Why are you throwing your anger on a phone? Pick it up!”


    She might be too bold, asking Euan to pick up the phone for her. The moment she finished her


    sentence, she bit on her lips. Shit, she must have lost her mind.


    Euan sat on the sofa. He did not exin why he left suddenly just now. He just nced at his Patek


    Philippe watch on his wrist and said, “We’ll leave in an hour and go back to JD city tonight.”


    Riley was speechless.


    The n was always changing, and he always nned ording to his mood and time.


    “Whatever!”


    Rileyid down, annoyed. She was injured both on her body and soul. She was even frightened. She


    just felt like throwing her anger on someone.


    “Didn’t you hear me? He’ll leave in an hour.”


    “I’m not deaf. I hear you.”


    “Get up then, if you hear me.”


    Riley was speechless again. Didn’t he just say they would leave in an hour?


    Riley was dragged up by Euan and was carried away directly by him too, of course.


    Naturally, after taking her away, the phone was sent over by the nurse.


    Riley didn’t expect that they would have dinner before departing…


    Sitting on the dining table face to face with Euan, Riley held onto her chopstick and ate slowly as she

    silently nced at Euan.


    Euan was eating the food and drinking the soup elegantly. He seemed to be eating slowly and was not


    in rush.


    “Euan, why are we going back so suddenly? What happened?”


    Riley was feeling uneasy. Euan had mentioned the Watson family in his call, and Jakub had asked


    what Hendrix had done. It was all like a prelude before a disaster.


    Unexpectedly, Euan brushed Riley off coldly, “Do not talk while eating.”


    It was all bullshit about not speaking while eating. He used to force her to answer his questions and


    taught her lessons on the dining table, which made her speechless!


    Ah! Why did she have to always think about all of that?


    After dinner, Euan picked her up and took her to the helicopter. The helicopter took them to JD city


    along with her worries and doubts.


    They arrived at JD city at about eight at night. Riley thought Euan would send her to the hospital, but


    unexpectedly the ck Rolls Royce went directly to the YJ vi.


    Riley sighed silently. She was back again!


    Euan was definitely someone who did things instead of saying. He carried her to the bedroom on the


    second floor and ordered her toy down.


    “Do you think I have a better choice other than lying down?”


    Euan ignored her. After a while, Dr. Rose, the private doctor of the George’s family came and carefully


    examined Riley. Dr. Rose was a general practitioner in a well-known general hospital in the United


    States. She was expertise in both Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine and had excellent


    medical skills.


    “How is her condition?”


    Dr. Rose nodded, “The injury on her arm needs a good rest, but… there’s something that I don’t know if


    I should say.”


    Riley and Euan frowned. Euan nced at Riley then said, “Please say.”


    “No! Dr. Rose, I’m also a doctor. Everyone has some small problem with their body. I’ll pay attention to


    it in the future! Dr. Rose, thank you very much. It’s veryte now. I’ll ask the driver to send you home.”


    Euan red at her coldly and continued asking, “Say it. Tell the truth.”


    What was she trying to hide? He, Euan must know about it!
