Neera was taken aback. “How did you find out?”
Levi could sense that his assumption was correct.
“The news is spreading rapidly in Kingsview. It is said that Mr. Frederic copsed at thepany, was
rushed to the hospital, and is still unconscious. It seems to be true. There are online spections about
what happened to Mr. Frederic, and Mr. Beauvort has been absent for a while, so people are talking a
lot. You can imagine the various rumors, mostly unfavorable to Beauvort Group.”
Although he didn’t explicitly state it, Neera could infer that it was probably all sorts of negative rumors
about Beauvort Group.
Her eyes darkened slightly. After a moment of silence, she said, “Mr. Frederic has some heart issues,
but the situation is not as pessimistic as it seems. He needs a heart transnt, which is why I asked for
your help.”
Levi nodded. “I understand. Don’t worry, I will inquire around and try to be of assistance.”
After their conversation, Neera didn’t linger. She left thepany and went home.
Levi apanied her downstairs, and just as she was about to get into the car, he suddenly called out,
“Neera.”
Neera, halfway through opening the car door, turned to look at him, puzzled. “Yes?”
Levi pressed his lips together, then suddenly smiled, a genuine smile from the heart.
“I wish you a happy and longsting marriage.”
Neera blinked and also smiled, radiant and charming. “Thank you. I also hope you find the person
destined for you soon.”
Levi’s expression shifted to one of exhaustion. “I don’t know if I’ll have that chance in my lifetime, or if
I’ll be that lucky…”
“Don’t talk nonsense. Of course, you have a chance.” Neera raised an eyebrow. “You’re a good person;
there’s surely someone better waiting for you in the future.”
Watching the car drive away, Levi wore a bitter smile.
Who could possibly be better than her?
But there was no way around it. She didn’t belong to him, and even if his love was deep, it didn’t
matter.
It was better to let go without hesitation and stop tormenting himself.
The moment he voiced it, he truly felt a significant weight lifted from his shoulders.
“Well, being friends is also good, as long as she’s happy,” he muttered softly.
Looking up at the sky, a wistful smile yed on his lips. With a swift turn, he walked back into the
company.
Meanwhile, Jean went to thepany.
“Joseph.” He nodded and greeted Joseph when he saw him. “I’ve been away for a while. Thank you for
your hard work.”
Joseph, who was reviewing stacks of documents, put down his pen and walked around the desk upon
seeing Jean.
“Jean, you’re back. Skip the formalities. I’m here to help. Have you visited Dad at the hospital?”
“Yeah.” Jean nodded, taking a seat across from Joseph. “He’s still in the intensive care unit, and he
hasn’t stabilized yet.”
Joseph sighed deeply, his expression turning serious. “Dad’s heart must have been bothering him for a
while, but he kept it to himself. Coupled with some recent stress, he just couldn’t hold on.”
Concerned about the situation at the hospital, he asked, “Did you talk to the doctors? How long until
he’s out of danger?”
Jean pursed his lips and provided the details of Frederic’s condition.

As soon as Joseph heard that a heart transnt was needed, his face turned paler.
“Is it that serious? A heart transnt… Isn’t that very risky? What’s the sess rate?”
“Neera didn’t specify, but she mentioned that it’s best to have the heart ready within a week and
perform the surgery as soon as possible. ording to her, doing it early increases the chances of
sess and leads to better recovery. If she’s confident enough to say that, I believe her.”
Joseph was aware of Neera’s medical skills and had great trust in her.
“With Neera around, we can feel more at ease. Has the heart been secured?”
Jean shook his head. “The hospital immediately contacted major medical centers, but they haven’t
found a suitable match yet. I’ve instructedn to search as well. At the moment, all we can do is wait.”
Joseph understood the situation and sighed with a troubled expression.
“Dad, knowing he had a heart problem, didn’t seek proper treatment and instead kept it to himself, even
hiding it from his family.”
On the other side of the table, Jean’s eyes darkened, and his gaze became somewhatplex.
He recalled thest time Frederic was hospitalized after a car ident. If he hadn’t been in such a
hurry to leave and had taken the time to give Frederic a thorough examination, would things have not
deteriorated to this point? Did he neglect his parents too much?
Seeing him silent for a long time, Joseph understood that he was feeling uneasy and sighed, offering
comfort.
“All right, Jean, don’t me yourself. Dad is stubborn, and he will definitely get through this.”
After a while, Jean uttered a quiet “yes.”
After some time, Joseph brought up the rumors circting outside.
“Should we release a statement about Dad’s current situation?”
Jean thought for a moment and replied, “No need. This is a family matter, and I’ll have someone
manage thements from outsiders.”
“What about the shareholders? Some are already inquiring.”
“For the shareholders, let’s address it. We can convene a shareholder meeting, but assure them that
this matter won’t affect thepany’s operations. They don’t need to panic.”
Finishing his thoughts, he looked at Joseph. “Joseph, I’ll rely on you to handle things at thepany
for now.”
“Come on, Jean, between brothers, what are you saying? You’ve been busy searching for a
recement heart these days. Don’t worry about anything else. I’ve got this. If you need anything,
contact me anytime. I’ll find time to visit Frederic at the hospital. By the way, how is Aunt Wrenn holding
up?”
Jean pressed his lips together. “She feels a lot of guilt and is heartbroken, but she’s coping.”
“That’s good. Tell her not to be too sad. I believe that Dad will get better.”
