Chapter 573 Determined to Go Back to Headquarters


    Grace replied, "Don''t worry, everything''s fine."


    She couldn''t see how tightly Xander was holding onto his phone on the other side. When he saw


    her message, he finally rxed slightly.


    Hazel rushed in. "Mr. Fulton, the secretariat office just told me that you want to book a flight ticket to


    Pamore!"


    Xander put his phone down and said calmly, "Everything''s fine now. You can cancel it."


    Hazel was startled, but then she noticed the sheen of sweat on Xander''s forehead. The veins


    throbbing on his forehead were slowly subsiding.


    The image of Grace rose up unbidden in her mind, and she nodded silently. Then she said,


    "Something''s happened to Jake."


    Xander''s eyes were as sharp as daggers. "What?"


    "While he was monitoring the work in Linden City, there was an explosion on site at night. He was


    affected and was sent to the hospital urgently."


    Xander stood up and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling windows. "What was the cause of the


    explosion?"


    "The workers hadn''t stored the materials properly, which resulted in the explosion. The explosion


    was contained, and work progress is unimpeded."


    Hazel paused. "However, the update from the hospital is that Jake has been severely injured. He


    may need to be brought back here for treatment."


    "Is his life in danger?"


    "Not at the moment."


    At these words, Xander snorted. "He''s so transparent. He seems determined to return to Fulton


    Group''s headquarters.


    "If he wasn''t that ruthless, he wouldn''t have been able to build up his influence here in the two years


    I was away."


    Hazel frowned. "I asked around about Mr. Fulton Senior''s movements. It seems that your mother


    has an exhibition today, so he''s helping out there. I''m not sure whether he knows about this incident


    yet."


    "Let''s pay them a visit," Xander said enigmatically.


    …


    Hestia was having an exhibition in the countryside. With its sultry weather and clear sky, Frenda


    was different from Pamore.


    Raymond was helping the staff carry the photos around. He wasn''t conscious of his status at all,


    and no one could have known that he was the chairman of a huge corporation.


    This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Make sure to be careful! Don''t knock into anything! This is Hestia''s favorite photo."


    Hestia looked elegant as she interacted with the guests who hade to see the exhibition. She


    ignored Raymond as she focused on exining the concept behind her photography to the guests.


    Xander watched them for a while before walking over. "Dad."


    Raymond looked up in surprise, then smiled. "Xander, are you here to see your mother''s exhibition


    too?"


    Xander looked at Hazel meaningfully. She said, "Mr. Fulton Senior, we just received the news that


    Mr. Jake was caught in an explosion while he was in Linden City, and his life is in danger."


    Raymond''s expression changed at once. He took off his gloves and walked over to them.


    "Is he undergoing emergency treatment?"


    "He started receiving treatment at 5:00 am, and it''s already 12:00 pm now.


    "We haven''t received any news about the hospital requesting Mr. Jake''s family to sign any consent


    forms in case ofplications, so he should be fine."


    Hazel stood deferentially behind Xander, but the meaning behind her words was clear.


    Raymond frowned slightly and looked at Xander. "This is serious. Why didn''t anyone tell me about


    this?"


    Xander remained expressionless. "That''s why I personally came to tell you about it."


    Raymond didn''t say anything. He seemed to be thinking.


    After all, Xander and Jake were both his sons, whether they were illegitimate or not.


    Xander sped his hands behind his back and added, "Jake wishes to return to the city to receive


    treatment."


    "What''s your opinion?"


    "Jake ys an important role in Fulton Group. Of course, as the president of thepany, I hope


    that he can receive the best treatment.


    However, the project he is in charge of in Linden City hasn''t beenpleted yet. If he makes a rash


    decision toe back, it may cause spection."


    Standing in the shade, Raymond looked stern. This attracted Hestia''s attention


    Hestia''s assistant had sharp eyes. "Isn''t that Mr. Xander? What is he doing here?"


    Hestia narrowed her eyes and stopped the assistant from going over. "Let them talk."
