The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1489

"You barely made it back to us, you know." Cory looked at Wayne, his voice choked with emotion but he spoke earnestly.

How could he have possibly survived such severe injuries if he didn't have the determination to return to them?

He'd asked Jaime and Baillie. They said the people who saved their father didn't even take him to a hospital. They treated him in a place with terrible sanitation using the medical skills they'd learned themselves.

After hearing this, Cory played out countless scenarios in his head according to that report. He found that the chances of his father surviving were slim to none.

He couldn't imagine how much will to live his father must have had.

"Thank you," Cory said, his head bowed as he rested his forehead on Wayne's arm, choking back tears. "Thank you, Dad."

"Don't be sad," Wayne's voice was also choked with emotion.

Cory was always cold and distant towards Wayne because he didn't express his feelings.

To prevent Wayne from overthinking, Rosalynn had specifically told him that Cory hardly ever showed his emotions to others.

So, at this moment, the fact that Cory could say these things to him both shocked and saddened Wayne.

"I will get better soon, just like before... no, even healthier than before!"

Cory knew it would be difficult for his father to recover to his previous state, let alone become better.

But Cory still nodded.

Outside the room, Rosalynn was still in a meeting.

She didn’t keep Wayne's return a secret from the company executives.

"For now, we'll just leak some rumors. There's no need for a direct response, I don't want Wayne to be disturbed," Rosalynn said casually.

"Understood!" everyone replied.

"The meeting about the island resort development project will be moved to Saturday morning, I'm sorry for making you all work overtime," Rosalynn continued.

According to the original plan, she should have called this meeting as soon as she returned.
