Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Publicly Announced—Old Tanner Is Dead!

"Mr. Thorne? What are you doing here?"

"Do you know when you arrived?"

"How long have you been here?"

Julian Thorne: "I came around five twenty."

"Miss Sinclair sleeps very soundly."

As Julian said this, he kept looking into Vivian Sinclair’s eyes, causing her heart to skip a beat, and her cheeks to blush slightly.

Vivian awkwardly thought: So, has he been in this trailer for four hours already?

The small table over there still had an open laptop, indicating that Julian Thorne had been handling work while she was asleep.

Is it because she’s taken the only bed in this trailer?

If that’s the case, does it mean he didn’t leave last night?

And stayed in the hospital all along?

Otherwise, why would he come to rest in the trailer at five twenty?

The thought of them, a man and a woman, alone in such a small space for several hours while she was asleep made Vivian feel intensely awkward.

"Sorry, I’ve taken your spot, Mr. Thorne."

Vivian hurriedly tried to get off the bed, but Julian firmly pressed her shoulder back down, making her sit quietly on the bed without moving.

"I suggest Miss Sinclair should have breakfast first."

"You’ve already had a hypoglycemic episode."

With that, Julian personally brought over a thermal container filled with warm breakfast items.

There was porridge and side dishes, along with a fried egg, and buns.

Very light but also very much to Vivian’s taste.

There were also Western selections like sandwiches and pizza, letting Vivian choose whichever she preferred.

Such a sumptuous breakfast seemed to have been long prepared.

Not knowing when Vivian would wake, but always prepared beside her, waiting for when she awoke to have a bite.

Vivian was taken aback by this thoughtfulness and attention to detail.

She was momentarily speechless.

And she was indeed hungry.

The hunger made her stomach feel awful.

Without pretentious refusal, Vivian promptly started to eat.

Seeing her gobble up the food, Julian went to pour her a glass of milk.

"Thank you."

As Vivian ate, questions began stirring in her heart.

Wasn’t he the head of The Thorne Group?

He should be busy managing affairs, conquering business landscapes, with his daily life carefully attended to by housekeepers and servants—how could he also exhibit such gentleness and meticulousness privately?

Could it be because he had taken care of Stella before?

But Vivian had also seen another side of him—

That night, he had carried her with one arm while fighting a dozen men to clear a path.

So this gentle and caring, slightly unreal person before her was him.

In dangerous situations, the fierce and incomparably strong person capable of defeating a dozen men was also him.

And the countless times he’d appeared before her, always solving her troubles effortlessly, was still him.

The more Vivian thought, the more flustered she became, almost unable to meet Julian’s eyes at that moment, so she hurriedly stuffed everything into her mouth, thinking about finishing quickly and leaving.

However, because she ate too hastily, she almost choked herself.

Julian looked on with helplessness, also noticing Vivian’s embarrassment.

"Eat slowly, I’ll wait for you outside."

"Oh, by the way, Old Tanner’s surgery was very successful."

"Miss Sinclair... there’s no need to worry about it anymore."

Having said that, he picked up his coat, put it on, and left the space in the car entirely to Vivian.

Old Tanner’s surgery was very successful?

Vivian smiled, truly relieved in her heart.

After eating and drinking to her fill, she no longer felt dizzy.

Then she quickly put on shoes and a coat and got off the vehicle.

Outside the car were The Major and Minor Brothers, who immediately approached her saying, "Miss Sinclair, Master Julian had to leave for something urgent."

"He left the two of us to accompany you."

Vivian: Really, there’s nothing much now, and he left his men with me?

And why did he leave so abruptly?

But if he leaves temporarily, that’s also good; it allows Vivian to freely go about her affairs.

On the other side, because Julian left so hurriedly, he sent Vivian a text on the way: Announce to the public, Old Tanner is dead.

After sending these eight words, Julian believed Vivian would understand what he meant.

He massaged his temples, sitting in the back with his eyes closed for respite, while Leo Linden had a worried look in his eyes: "Master Julian, you were personally operating the entire night, staying up till dawn. Weren’t you able to rest well on the trailer either?"

There was only one bed in the trailer, and Vivian must have taken it up.

At this moment, a trace of resentment surfaced in Leo’s mind: Master Julian is so good to Miss Sinclair, does she even know?

Julian: "Mind your own business."

"Any movement from Dylan Drexler’s side?"

Leo Linden then put on his professional work demeanor again: "Master Julian, Dylan Drexler indeed sent people to the hospital to investigate Old Tanner’s matter. Luckily, we had erased all of Old Tanner’s rescue records long before."

"Now, he has been transferred to a nursing home where a professional team is taking care of him. We can rest assured that no one at the hospital dares to leak a word."

"Otherwise, it would be hard to keep it from Dylan Drexler."

Julian Thorne: "Then create some trouble for him, so he doesn’t have the energy to meddle in this matter anymore."

"I remember he seems to be fighting for a territory in South Ardis?"

"Expose some of his Phoenixia dealings, and raise the bid price in South Ardis by two percent."

Leo Linden thought: If even a little about Phoenixia gets out, that Drexler would definitely panic, wouldn’t he?

If he can’t suppress it, and it gets online, Phoenixia’s business won’t be so easy to handle anymore...

By then, Dylan Drexler would be both busy trying to cover up his shady deeds and helplessly watching South Ardis’s territory fall into others’ hands. He’d go mad with frustration, wouldn’t he?

Then indeed, he wouldn’t have the energy to worry about Old Tanner’s plight.

"But Master Julian, I remember Dylan Drexler’s uncle seems to be someone we can’t touch at the moment. By doing this..."

Julian Thorne: "If it weren’t for his uncle being untouchable, do you think Dylan Drexler would get away with just this little lesson?"

Speaking, Julian Thorne’s voice turned ice-cold, sending a shiver down Leo Linden’s spine.

This is a little lesson?

Indeed, Master Julian hasn’t dealt with anyone harshly for a long time.

Not making Dylan Drexler bankrupt overnight already shows extreme restraint.

He was just unlucky to provoke someone important to Master Julian.

Even if Dylan Drexler’s uncle finds out Master Julian instigated this against his nephew, he might still hesitate to clash with Master Julian to protect his position.

"Master Julian, we’ve arrived."

While speaking, the car gradually came to a stop.

Julian Thorne opened the door and got out, looking up at the place he left for suddenly — Umbra.

Vivian Sinclair understood immediately after seeing Julian’s text; perhaps that Drexler’s ghost-like presence is still haunting, still refusing to let go of Old Tanner’s life and death.

Luckily, Jasmine sent a timely text to inform Vivian that they had moved.

Vivian wasted no time, quickly got in the car, and left the hospital.

However, she didn’t know when getting into the car without a hat or mask, she was spotted by Matron Warren from the Grant Family, who was visiting the hospital.

Matron Warren, as if seeing a ghost, quickly pulled out her phone to report this to Uncle Denton, the butler.

Soon, Austin Grant got the news of Vivian Sinclair appearing near the hospital.

Austin Grant had barely slept through the night; upon hearing Vivian Sinclair was near the hospital, he was immediately wide awake, even with a hint of excitement in his voice: "Is it really her?"

"Is she alone or with someone else?"

Uncle Denton: "Matron Warren said it seemed there were two men accompanying the Young Madam."

"Young Master, the Old Madam just woke up. Should we tell her about this..."

Austin Grant: "Don’t tell Grandma."

"Also, keep it from Dad for now."

"Did Matron Warren note down the car’s license plate?"

Indeed, Matron Warren had noted the license plate; upon receiving it, Austin quickly had Nicholas Chamberlain investigate: "Report back all the vehicle’s information to me immediately!"

After Nicholas hurried off, Austin hesitated for a moment but still decided to inform Elias Sinclair of the news.

"Vivian has appeared."

On Vivian’s side, she arrived at the nursing home where Jasmine was already waiting.

"Vivian, my father has woken up."

"I’ll take you to see him!"

Vivian couldn’t have imagined Old Tanner would wake up so soon?

"So quickly?"

Originally, she was worried Old Tanner might be in a coma for ten days or so, but for him to wake up so soon truly surprised and delighted her.

Jasmine was excited: "Vivian, this time my dad was able to be saved, as the hospital said, it was all because of your influence."

"You brought in someone world-renowned in neurology whom we could only dream of. Even the chief surgeon came out to say that even if he personally operated, the surgery wouldn’t have been so perfect."

"It was this person who personally pulled my dad back from the brink of death."

"Vivian, without you, my dad would really be gone."

Saying this, tears began to fall from Jasmine’s eyes.

Vivian was confused listening to this, but her mind involuntarily conjured a name: J?

Could it be that the world-class neurologist they mentioned was this J?

But she didn’t know any J at all!

Could it be... Julian arranged for the person but put the credit on her?

But in such a short time, how could it be so perfectly timed that this world-class neurologist arrived at the hospital?

Vivian hadn’t figured this out when Jasmine continued: "Oh right, Vivian, my dad, because of what he’s been through, also nearly die, he’s realized many truths."

"As soon as he woke up, I told him about everything you did to save us, the dangers you faced, and the grievances you suffered. We owe you our lives."

"My dad was deeply moved."

"Even though he now speaks slowly, he has told me a truth."

Jasmine stopped walking, then nervously grasped Vivian’s hand and whispered: "Vivian, the reason Dylan Drexler tortured my dad and me was to silence us!"

"Dad said Dylan Drexler and Lillian Rivers... they have a secret and an illicit relationship!"
