Avery couldn't make up his mind. He could only turn to the doctor and ask for his opinion.
"Well, if their relationship is particularly good, it's better for her not to stay here, because it will affect his condition. After all, Kendall is the key to the matter. It's not a good thing if someone else is involved." The doctor explained coolly.
Braden nodded as he listened. "I understand. Then I'll bring Anne home first. Shall we come over tomorrow morning?"
"Right." The doctor's tone was serious. "This is no small matter. If he suddenly enters this state while driving, there's a high chance that he'll have an accident."
Everyone's expressions became more serious.
After Braden left, the others waited for Rick to fall asleep before leaving.
Charlotte and Shane sat in the back seat, while Cole sat in the driver's seat and drove the car. The moonlight outside the window was very strong, and the bright light fell directly on the car.
Charlotte usually spoke very little with Shane. In any case, she was not in the mood to talk about the company's affairs, so both of them were
silent.
Charlotte kept looking out of the window. Suddenly, her phone vibrated. She took it out and glanced at it. It was a message from Riley. In addition to some information, there were also very clear pictures and videos. She just glanced at it for a moment and turned the phone off. Her heart beat faster and faster. She was afraid that Shane would notice.
After a while, she took out her phone again and transferred all the information to her inbox to store it.
She didn't know why Riley had sent her the information although they hadn't reached an agreement yet. However, since he had sent her the information, she had to give them the money.
After she returned home, Charlotte asked for Riley's account and immediately sent 100,000 dollars to him.
Actually, she was the kind of person who would pay even more than this. However, because Riley had been rude to her before, she didn't want to say too much to him and didn't want to give him more money.
As for the information...
A glint flashed in Charlotte's eyes. She would ask Avery about it another day.
If Avery could confirm the veracity of the information, and if Shane had asked Avery to cover it up, she would really be disappointed in Shane.
She didn't understand why he had to hide it from her.
In Avery's villa.
Kendall sat on the swing in the garden and looked at the moon.
Rick was already asleep, but she didn't feel sleepy. She didn't know why, but she didn't want to be close to him now. When her enthusiasm subsided for him for so many months, she felt that it was not necessary for her to like him.
When she thought about it, Kendall laughed and shook her head.
It was impossible for her not to like Rick.
Right at that moment.
Her phone rang.
"Hello?" She came back to her senses and picked it up.
"It's me."
A low and deep voice came from the other end.
"You are... Zayden?" Kendall almost forgot who the man was.
"Yes," Zayden replied. He flipped through the report in his hand and said with a chuckle. "Have you been living with Rick recently?"
"I..."
"Don't lie to me. Since I didn't betray Rick, it's impossible for me to betray you. Many people have been looking into you. The highest price for information about you is more than four million dollars, did you know that?" Zayden's voice was very low and cold, but his tone was very soft. There was a sense of extreme contrast.
Kendall was taken aback. "What did you say?" she asked in disbelief.
Zayden lowered his voice and said, "I say, a lot of people are looking for you, and they've offered a high price. Do you know about this?"
"I, I don't know."
"I thought so. Rick must be protecting you very well."
Kendall suddenly thought of the state that Rick was in. Her heart pounded. She immediately braced herself and asked, "Zayden, can you explain it to me clearly? Why are they investigating our whereabouts?" "Have you eaten?" Zayden asked.
