At that moment, she saw a heavy-duty vehicle that seemed like a truck stop beside the car, so she continued watching curiously. Soon enough, the truck’s interior lit up, after which she took a better look and discovered it was a luxurious caravan. Stunned, she sneered, Jared even brought a caravan here. Is he being serious?
Meanwhile, Lambert, too, heard the sound of a car engine and came out to take a look. When he saw the caravan parked in the yard, he could not help but be astonished by Jared’s tolerance. It seemed like he was insisting on staying outside his house!
“Mr. Presgrave, don’t you think this is too much?” He went over to joke.
Jared stood beside the caravan watching as his assistant and bodyguards brought his daily necessities into his new home. From today onward, this caravan would be his temporary nook and office. Hugging his arms, he stared warningly at Lambert. “Don’t you touch her or have any thoughts about her. Or else, you’ll be sorry.”
Lambert raised an eyebrow. “To tell you the truth, I fell in love with her the first time I saw her at the clubhouse. Of course, I’d never force her to like me, so let’s do this fair and square. Ellen can choose whomever she likes.”
When Jared heard that, his heart sank because Lambert’s words pressured and offended him. “Sorry that you have to live out here, Young Master Jared. I’ll be heading back inside, though.” After saying that, Lambert left.
As Jared looked up at the mansion, he happened to see a thin figure on the balcony of the third floor. He looked over with his deep eyes and saw Ellen gazing at him. Though they were far apart, she could feel his stare, so she headed back inside.
Her feelings were still all over the place at the moment. Also, Connor’s words and Kevin’s pale face remained clouding her mind. She remembered she had to beg her uncle to see her brother for the last time.
Back then, Kevin was lying inside the ICU and was so skinny that he looked disfigured, which was all too different from the always-smiling older brother in her memory. Remembering how she could only look at him through the glass window, she felt like someone had ripped her heart out. How cruel had it been for Kevin to undergo such treatment during his last few moments?
On the other hand, Jared sat on the couch inside the caravan and saw a man in his fifties running over and greeting him, “Young Master Jared, you were looking for me?”
“Director Ferguson, I invited you over because I have some questions to ask you. It’s about my surgery from sixteen years ago.” Director Ferguson felt nervous. “Young Master Jared, are you not feeling well?”
“No, I’m doing fine. I heard it was you who signed the contract with the donor. I’d like to know if the donor’s family had signed the agreement willingly, or were they forced to do so?” Jared inquired.
Hearing that, Director Ferguson immediately recalled that moment. Although he was up there in age, his recollection was still unmistakable. He thought about it and shook his head. “No, I remembered the donor’s family agreed after a brief discussion while having the necessary knowledge.”
“Why did they agree to donate?”
“We did mention to the couple about their reward after donation. Adding on to the compensation the Presgrave Family was willing to provide, they agreed and signed the papers.”
“Do you have any surveillance footage that could prove the donor’s complete willingness to authorize the procedure?”
“About that… I don’t know. I’ll have to contact my old friend because he was at the scene too. He was also the attending physician back then. I can ask him if there are any videos of that moment.”
“Sure. Sorry for the trouble.” Jared nodded as he believed Director Ferguson’s statement, which also proved that Connor and his family had been lying and tricking Ellen.
Back then, his parents were with him because he was seriously injured, so none of them had personally engaged with the Aguirres. Therefore, the only ones who had in-depth knowledge of the agreement were Director Ferguson and the bodyguards at the scene.
After Director Ferguson left, Jared heaved a faint sight. The matter involved a huge misunderstanding, and since he failed to talk some sense into Ellen, he could only be there for her as a temporary fix to make up for her.
