Crises in Love novel Chapter 51

Catherine agreed, nodding at my statement, "The mad dog must have gotten a whiff of something!"

I clenched my fists tightly, glaring at Jaylan on the mobile surveillance screen, gnashing my teeth in anger, "He's targeting the Wilburn family, not satisfied with what he's reaped from us. That's the real reason he stopped my medication— the audacity."

"We need to plan our next move. I've seen the nanny he's arranged, a middle-aged woman, not young! I've asked Ronan to dig into her background, but I didn't dare hint anything to Galen. Once we know more about her, we'll figure out a way to clue Galen in. You should think about how to break it to him," Catherine advised.

Before we could discuss further, I saw Jaylan leave the living room and head upstairs.

Catherine and I exchanged a glance, shut off the mobile, and pretended to engage in a heated conversation—I was lying on the bed while Catherine leaned against the couch.

It took a while before Jaylan knocked and entered, clearly having eavesdropped on our chat. He didn't want us to spend too much time alone.

After lunch, Catherine was called away by a work call.

As soon as Catherine left, I retreated to my room, tired but relieved, to rest and regain my strength—my main priority.

I knew I was safe, at the very least until the city planning of Silverdale City was finalized. He would keep me alive.

If Catherine's information was accurate, then our family would be the biggest beneficiary, since our old house was the largest and the yard the most distinctive. The compensation would be extremely attractive. If I died, the compensation would have nothing to do with him!

No wonder Jaylan suddenly stopped my medication when I was on the brink of death.

Sure enough, a week later, Jaylan finally took the time to accompany me to the hospital. The comprehensive check-up results were encouraging; all the indicators were promising.

Clearly the report was clearly faked by Jaylan, who had the doctor prescribe me medication nonetheless.

Jaylan hugged me tightly, beaming, nearly asking for a reward. He shamelessly proclaimed that we could arrange the trip back to Silverdale City in a couple of days.
