Chapter 652 Against Will Jodie replied, "There's news that he appeared in Glenfield earlier this year. Apparently, the head of the Collymore family in Glenfield fell ill and called him in for treatment.
"The Collymore family might know where he went, but we've never had any dealings with them. We tried contacting them directly, but they refused to disclose anything." Emelie hadn't given up on finding Shane over the past two years. He was the only hope for Ashley, who remained in a coma.
"Did you say the Collymore family in Glenfield? Letthink about how to establish a connection with them." After entering her room, Emelie took off her gloves.
Jodie knew she needed rest. Thus, she closed the door for Emelie and shut out everything from view.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmelie went to Pearl Bay to visit Ashley the next day.
She arrived just as Elias and a carer were putting Ashley on a walking machine.
The giant machine was humanoid in appearance. They used straps to secure Ashley, with her hands and feet attached to the machine.
When the switch was pressed, the arms and legs of the machine would start to move and drive Ashley along. This was done to help her circulation and keep her muscles active.
Otherwise, her muscles would have atrophied after so many years of inactivity, and even if she did wake up one day, she would be disabled.
The machine was specially designed by a foreign medical equipment team at Elias's request.
Emelie couldn't help but frown as she watched Ashley move while her eyes remained tightly shut. "Is there still no sign of her waking up?" Elias smiled bitterly. "It was about six months ago that I thought. I saw her finger move, but it could have just been my imagination. I haven't seen anything since." Emelie said, "Dr Santiago was in Glenfield earlier this year with the Collymore family." Elias immediately turned to face her. His eyes, which had been dull before, suddenly lit up as if a match had been struck.
Emelie continued, "The Collymore family probably know where he went. However, Shane has always been reclusive and reluctant to meet people. He made an exception for the Collymore family. Hence, they wouldn't give up his whereabouts easily. The Collymore family won't tell us where Shane has gone if we approach them without any connection." "However, I did a lot of relationship mapping yesterday. Charles should know Benjamin Collymore. His distant cousin is Benjamin's wife, Layla Gray." "Charles." Elias sneered. This was truly a small world. It had always been the speople over and over." I'll go find him now," he said before turning to leave.
Emelie frowned. "Charles and Beathan are good friends. If you go to him just like that, he's not going to help you. He'll just pass on Beathan's demand that he'll only help you find Shane if you agree to divorce Ashley." Elias stopped and gritted his teeth.
Emelie cup behind him with her hands in the pockets of her coat and said, "But I do have another way of making sure that Charles is going to be fully committed to helping us." Ashley's training couldn't go on for too long. Ten minutes every three days was all she needed. Any more than that would be damaging to her body.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEmelie finished explaining her plan just as the carers helped Ashley back to the bed.
Elias leaned against the back of the couch and stared at Emelie for a long time.
Emelie asked, "Mr. Undvike, do you have a different idea?" "No, I don't. I'm just impressed by you, Ms. Hoven."
Elias smirked. "It is no wonder that Vanessa ended up in prison because of you. I used to think that she would have been a worthy opponent for Will and that she was not so easy to deal with. But you took her down in one fell swoop." Emelie replied, "To have absolute control is to have everything you want. Whoever has more leverage at the negotiating table always wins."
"As for Charles, I'll follow your lead, but I have another question." Elias leaned forward and andrested Gis elbows op his thighs. There was a smile on his face and a hint of dimples, but there was little genuine warmth in that smile. "Are you going to use those wits of yours against Will in the future?"
Emelie stood up with her hands in her pockets and looked down at him "You needn't worry about that, Mr. Undvike. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now." She took one last look at Ashley before leaving Pearl Bay.
As she was about to get into her car, she heard a car horn in the distance. Emelie looked over and saw William's car pulling up in front of her.
