"Ring..."
The abrupt ringtone broke the silence of the night.
It was Silvia's phone that was ringing.
"Jayden, Levi, you two can continue. I'll have to answer this." Silvia smiled and walked to the side. "Reagan, why are you calling me at this hour?"
"Boss, Felix is still alive," Reagan said in an anxious voice.
"Okay." Silvia nodded.
Reagan did not notice the calmness in Silvia's voice and went on to say, "Boss, Felix is seriously injured now and he has been admitted to the hospital. He's in a coma for two days and he would call your name from time to time. The doctor said that his chances of waking up might increase if you come over to see him."
"What? He's injured again?" Silvia was so anxious that her pitch had gone up significantly, attracting both Jayden and Levi's attention.
"What's the matter?" Jayden walked up to Silvia and said, "Tell me slowly. Don't get so tensed up."
Silvia looked at Jayden and said, "Jayden, Felix is injured and he's in a coma now. The doctor asked me to go over and see him because it might help with his situation."
"Felix is injured again?" Perhaps, the reason Stanley Pierson had called him a while ago was to tell him about this matter, but he had hung up too soon, so Stanley did not get the chance to report it to him.
"Jayden, I have to go back now." Silvia turned around and wanted to leave. However, before she could even take a step, Jayden had already grabbed her arm, stopping her from leaving. Silvia became even more anxious, "Don't stop me, Jayden. I have to go back now."
Silvia knew very well that she was Jayden's wife and Felix was her ex-lover. She knew that she should not care about Felix's affairs anymore, but Felix was still someone who grew up with her. All these years, Felix had always given her the best things he could afford, so she really could not just watch him get hurt and not do anything for him.
Jayden stared at Silvia. After a long silence, he said lightly, "I'll go with you then."
Silvia was stunned. She shook her head and said, "You don't have to do that. The weather here in Chatterton Town is much better than it is in Madison City. You should stay here and let your body recover as soon as possible."
Jayden let go of her hand and went up to Levi, "Levi, I want you to go tell Mum and Dad that Silvia and I are leaving for Madison City now. We will try our best to come home before the New Year's."
Levi said, "Jayden, why don't you tell them in person?"
Jayden said, "We will be back very soon, okay?"
Silvia hurriedly caught up with him. "Hold up, Jayden. Your body hasn't recovered yet. Madison City is too cold, your old illness will definitely relapse if you go back."
Jayden strode forward, ignoring her. Silvia once again caught up with him and stopped him. "Jayden, just listen to me this time, okay?"
Jayden stood still and said in a deep voice, "Silvia, you were already overthinking when all I did was being on a call with Stanley. Do you think that I will let you go back alone after knowing that you'll be seeing your ex-lover?"
