Chapter 521 In A Coma

Abigail turned to Luna. “We have been having video calls for two weeks, and there doesn’t seem to be anything

wrong with him.”

With that, she showed Luna the screenshots.

Luna looked through the photos but couldn’t find anything amiss. “Maybe he just came back to retrieve something

before going abroad again,” she murmured.

Abigail nodded. “That’s possible. He has a lot of clients, so it’s understandable if he forgot something and had to

come back to get it.”

“Yeah. You two video call every day, so there’s nothing strange about it!” Luna agreed.

Shortly after their conversation, Analise rushed into the office. As she found the two women there, she put on a

calm front, but she struggled to find an excuse. “It seems like Colby is having a hard time taking care of his wife, so

I need to check on them. At the same time, you should hire a new chef. I’ll be back in a month at most.”

Ever since Lina got bailed out last week, she had fallen ill and was bedridden.

Abigail didn’t entirely agree with Analise’s plan to visit the Graham Estate, but she had to respect her

grandmother’s wishes.

After all, Theodore and Colby were good friends.

The sudden turn of events caught the Grahams off guard, and Colby probably felt overwhelmed by the weight on

his shoulders. Since Analise was a friend of the Graham. Family, it was understandable that she wanted to check on

them.

“Don’t let anyone bully you, alright?” Abigail was referring to Lina, who wasn’t known for being reasonable.

“Then, she’s asking for trouble.” Analise refused to let Lina pick on her.

Luna couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “You’re the head chef while she’s a patient, Grandma. If she wants to

fight you, you can smack her with the spatula!”

Abigail chuckled as well. “That’s right. Old Mrs. Graham deserves it.”

Lina knew nothing about investments, yet she dared to invest in Kelly’s project, which turned. out to be a scam,

after listening to the younger woman’s words. If she had known anything at all, she could’ve ended up in jail.

Analise gathered a few things and left immediately.

She had learned useful knowledge during her stay in Capitalis Not only was she good at using public transportation

on her own, but she also learned how to use a smartphone, so she was capable of taking care of herself.

Abigail and tuna accompanied her to the airport, but not before giving her a few reminders.

Once she was on board, she immediately called Colly

“I’m on my way. Abigail and Lana don’t suspect anything, but you have to be honest with me. How is Sean doing?

After learning that Sean had been in an accident and Colby was exhausted from handling everything on his own,

she decided to lend him a hand.

“He’s been in a coma for almost a month. It’s no different from being in a vegetative state at this point, Colby

explained. He had been pretending to be Sean as he handled the company’s affairs, and it was taking a toll on him.

Ever since Sean took over the company, he had spent almost ten years relaxing. He had been living a life of luxury

until he had to go back to work. Only half a month had passed, but he was already stressed out.

He needed someone for moral support. I feel like I’m about to have a mental breakdown.

But what hurt him the most was that the doctors couldn’t do anything about Sean’s condition.

Even Navien had woken up by this point, but there was no sign of Sean waking up.

Tears welled up in Analise’s eyes. “How long until the doctors declare him dead?”

It’s not fair. Sean is a mature, organized, and dependable young man. Why would something like this happen to

him? What a bitter life for such a promising individual.

“About two months. Colby sounded down on the other end of the line.

“It’s okay. There’s still time, right?” She patted her chest as she comforted him, saying, “Theodore is watching over

him.”

She made a promise to Colby. When she arrived in Pendorf, she immediately visited. Theodore’s grave. Placing a

hand on his tombstone, she tearfully begged, “You’re watching. over the boy, right? Ask him to come back to us.

Everyone is worried about him. Colby doesn’t deserve to lose his grandchild.”

When a person is driven to despair, they cling to false hope.

Analise spent some time mourning her late husband and reminiscing about their happy memories before leaving

the cemetery.

When she arrived at the Graham Estate, she was greeted by a gaunt and white-haired Colby. With a sob, she

commented, “You look older than I remember.”

“People eventually get old at some point. Take a shower first. I’ll ask Cameron to order dinner for us.” Colby had

everything planned out.

She nodded and changed into some slippers. It was only then that she realized there was only. a butler tending to

the chores in such a huge villa. Everywhere was covered in dust, giving her the feeling that Colby didn’t want word

about Sean’s condition to get out, so they had sent the servants away.

After taking a shower, she went to Sean’s room.

His room had been converted into a ward, and it smelled like a hospital. Even after she opened the window, she

could still smell the disinfectants.

He was lying on the soft mattress when she entered the room. His face was pale, and hist cheeks were sunken.

There were stitches on his left brow, not fully healed.

Seeing Sean lying on the dark mattress reminded her of a vampire. Even though he looked lifeless, one couldn’t

deny that he was still handsome.

She stifled a sob with her hand at the sight. Reaching out to hold his slender wrist, she called out, “Do you

remember me, Sean? I’m Abigail’s grandma. You like my pasta and arancini, don’t you? I’ll gladly make them for

you today. You can have them as soon as you up.

The man didn’t respond.

Cameron sat beside the bed, looking defeated.

Sean always forced a smile when he made a video call with Abigail. But as the call ended and he stayed beside

Sean’s bed all alone, sorrow overwhelmed him.

He might only be Sean’s subordinate, but they had formed a bond over time.
