Chapter 86
Claude’s hospital was located in Insterimond. If they took a plane back now, reaching Silverlake would take them at least) three hours. They could not waste time here,
Astrid nodded repeatedly and said, “Yes, we have to go back quickly, immediately!”
For the past few days, she had thought she would receive the good news of Margaret’s death. She did not expect to receive the bad news of Margaret’s recovery.
She felt a splitting headache when she thought about how she would have to live with Margaret in the future
What do we do?” On the plane, Astrid’s body was trembling as she asked. Even when the air stewardess reminded her to fasten her seatbelt, she was still in a daze. It was not until the air stewardess repeated it that she heard what the other party said.
“We didn’t care about Margaret’s life and death these few days. Now that she’s recovered, she’ll blame you and me. What if she tells your father something bad about you?” Astrid asked.
Ulric did not answer, but he frowned.
However, he wasn’t worried about Margaret’s attitude. Margaret had always been indifferent to him. He had never expected Margaret to say anything good about him in front of Ramon.
But according to Margaret’s personality, she wouldn’t say anything bad about him in front of Ramon
He was only flustered about his father’s attitude toward Ken.
Since the young lady of the Fox family had cured Margaret, and that ugly woman was in cahoots with Ken, I’m obviously at a disadvantage when it comes to Margaret. No wonder! No wonder Ken has no intention of leaving when he comes to Silverlake this time. He would never stay for long in the past. Kee must have returned to be the Swanson family’s successor Thinking of this, Ulric could not help but grind his molars
His cold expression shocked the air stewardess passing by. She asked in fear, “Mr. Swanson, did our crew do anything wrong?”
Ulric suddenly came back to his senses and revealed his usual gentle smile. “No, you guys did well. It’s just that I’m not feeling well. Thank you.”
The air stewardess heaved a sigh of relief and quickly nodded. Tsee. No wonder you look so pale. If you need anything, please press the service bell, and I’ll come over.”
“Okay, thank you” Ulric’s lips curled into a smile. The air stewardess completely forgot about Ulric’s terrifying expression just now and only felt her face turn red and her heart beat faster.
She heard that Ulric’s legs were crippled by his brother. She felt sorry and pity as she sighed.
The air stewardess left with mixed feelings
As soon as she left, the smile on Ulric’s face disappeared.
He turned to Astrid and said coldly, “We don’t have much time or opportunity left. We have to find an acupuncture doctor who can treat my leg immediately. Otherwise, we’ll be chased out of the Swanson family by Ken! Don’t forget that Ken is still investigating what you did to Ken’s mother back then. Once he finds out…”
When Astrid heard this, she couldn’t help but shiver.
Her lips were pale as she nodded. “Okay, I will find someone to treat your legs quickly!”

Chapter 86
For the rest of the journey, the mother and son were silent.
After they got off the plane, they rushed back in a panic. However, Astrid panic was shown on her face, while Ulric’s panic was hidden deep in his heart and did not show on his face.
It sounded ridiculous, but disguising had become what he was best at during the years he was disabled.
At the same time, in the Swanson family
Ken and his father got out of the car together. The three pickup trucks behind them were filled with gifts.
Til go and see if Grandma is done.” Ken was in a good mood today, and it was rare for him to take the initiative to report to Ramon
Ramon was also in a good mood.
As soon as Margaret recovered from her illness, the black fog enveloped the Swanson family instantly dissipated.
“Alright, go ahead. Tell her not to rush. Her body has just recovered. She has to take her time. Ramon instructed.
“Okay” Ken nodded
Just as he was about to enter
ter the villa, Ramon stopped him again. “Wait a minute.”
Ken turned his head in confusion, only to see Ramon walking to him. Ramon said in a low voice. There was a financial problem with the branch company in Laranshire today. After sealing the matters here, I need to go there. I’ll stay for at least
en days to half a month!
Ken didn’t say anything, waiting for Ramon to continue.
Ramon paused before saying, “You’re free during this period. Help me take care of the company in Silverlake.*
Hearing this. Ken’s usually unchanged expression revealed a rare surprise.
Although Ramon had handed over the company in Insterimond to him, he had never interfered with the headquarters in Silverlake.
Of course, even Ulric couldn’t infiltrate the headquarters. Ramon had always been in charge of everything at the headquarters here.
w what Ramon meant by that.
Ken didn’t know
Does he want me to be his successor? Ken wondered.
Honestly, he did not care about the position of the Swanson family’s heir. However, if he could enter the headquarters and have the right to speak, he could take back the Pearly Antiques that his mother had left behind without much effort. He did not need to go through so much trouble.
Ken knew Ramon’s sudden decision had much to do with his efforts to recommend Melody for treating Margaret
“It seems that… the gifts I bought for Melody are not enough, Ken thought.
Ken glanced at the gifts on the three pickup trucks and decided to give Melody something else.
“What do you think? Seeing that Ken didn’t say anything, Ramon asked in confusion, “You’re unwilling?”
Ken came back to his senses and shook his head. “Since you’re going to Laranshire to work, I’ll help you take care of the company in Silverlake.”

Chapter 86
Ken had never been good at saying something to please others. Eamon knew his son well. He laughed and patted Ken’s shoulder. “Do your best! Alright, go and fetch your grandma!”
“Okay” Ken nodded and walked upstairs
To make her gratitude look more sincere, Margaret took a shower and even asked her private maid to dress her up
When Ken went upstairs and saw Margaret, he felt that she seemed to have become ten years younger. She was full of energy and did not look sick at all.
“Grandma. Ken’s cold expression only softened when he saw Margaret,
“You’re back? Have you bought all the gifts? Have you chosen the gifts properly?” Margaret asked.
Ken nodded. “I’ve chosen them all. I’ve carefully chosen every one of them.”
Only then did Margaret feel relieved. She pointed at her clothes and asked, “How do I look in this dress? Do I look too young?”
“No.” Ken smiled and said, “You’re very suitable for this kind of clothes. You should wear them more in the future.”
“Really? You’re not lying to me?” Margaret asked again to confirm like a little girl.
It was not until the maids and Ken said it looked good that she relaxed and said. “Alright, that’s it. Let’s go. Let’s go to the Fox family and give thanks to Melody!”
