A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 209

Picturing the scene, Sunny can’t imagine that. Oh, besides, Butler wants her to never come back here. On what occasion will they ever meet? Maybe they will never see each other again.

After everything is done, it’s time for her to leave. Her flight is at two o'clock in the afternoon, so she has little time left. It's time to leave, to leave this house full of memories.

Sunny walks out of the house step by step with tears running down her face. If she leaves, she can never come back. Even Macie is still here, her poor daughter, and she is so young. She feels so sorry for her.

The servants don't pay much attention to Sunny. They all know the situation of the couple. Probably all of them know. They only think that Sunny is just too depressed recently, and she is just having a stroll to take a breath.

It is until night that the servants find something is wrong. Bulter looks at the clock on the wall and the it’s already ten. He is a little worried that something is wrong with Sunny, but he also knows what happened to Kevin and he is not well. He is afraid that it will make the situation worse if he calls Kevin now.

Bulter can only stare at the door blankly, expecting Sunny to show up in the next second.

At this moment, Sunny is on the plane looking at the clouds outside in a daze. She leaves him again, last time it was because of love, and this time too. She has already prepared for the worst. Sunny doesn’t expect Kevin to understand her, just hoping that he won’t hate her.

She also hopes that Butler will do what she has said, fulfill her promise, and give Kevin the antidote.

She is about to live in a strange city with the baby in her belly, where there are no relatives, no friends, only the child in her belly to accompany her. There is no one she can rely on in the future, but only on herself.

When it’s twelve o'clock, Bulter can’t stand it anymore. He wants to call someone but doesn’t know who to call.

Should he call Kevin? Of course he shouldn’t. Kevin’s life is still at stake. How about Troy? Troy is busy developing the antidote for Kevin all the time. He will be making troubles for him to call him at this moment.

After thinking about it, Bulter finally picks out the best candidate—the father of Kevin, Wade. Wade is the elder of the Quinn family, and it will be most appropriate for him to know about this.

Yeah, that’s it. Therefore, Bulter calls Wade. Wade should have been sleeping at this time, but Macie is asking him to watch cartoons with her, so he hasn’t gone to bed yet. As it gets late, he becomes more sober.

After putting Macie to sleep, he watches TV alone in the living room.

"Ring~ring~" The landline in the living room rings.

Wade feels strange, who will call so late at night, even on the landline?

"Hello, Mr. Wade, I am the housekeeper of the Quinn's house." Bulter thought that the elder has been already asleep, and he doesn’t expect him to answer the phone so soon.

"Oh, Bulter! What is it? Why are you calling me at this time?"

"Mr. Wade, Mrs. Quinn is gone. She went out this afternoon and never went back." Bulter makes up his mind and decides to tell Wade.

Wade doesn’t know Kevin is poisoned yet, so he asks Bulter questioningly, “She didn’t come back? Did they fight? Did Kevin look for her?”

"Oh...Mr. Kevin..." Bulter hesitates, not knowing how to tell Wade or whether he should tell him or not.

"What's wrong? Don't hesitate, just say it." Wade is a straightforward person. Seeing Bulter being so hesitant, he just asks him to speak straight.

"Mr. Wade, Mr. Kevin has been poisoned, and he is still lying in the hospital. His life is at stake. I don't know what to do about this, so I came to you." Bulter eventually tells the truth. If something really happens, he can’t be responsible for that.

"What? Poisoned? His life is at stake?" These words together almost make him have a heart attack.

It has been only a few days since last time they met. What's going on? Wade stabilizes his emotions first. At this moment, he can’t mess up.

"What the hell is going on?! Which hospital is my son in now?"

Bulter knows that it can’t be kept secret any longer. He is relieved after he tells him the truth, and says everything he knows to Wade.

"Then how is Kevin now? Which hospital is he in?" Wade asks anxiously. Even if he is strict with his son, everyone can see how much he loves Kevin when it comes to such matters of life and death.

"Mr. Kevin suddenly went into shock at home a few days ago. Troy came with those from the expert panel and transferred Mr. Kevin to the hospital, which is the best hospital in the city." Bulterer reports to Wade honestly.

After Wade hears what Bulter told him, he just wants to fly to Kevin right away and sees how he is doing.

He is a man of action. Wade hurriedly summons the servant and driver, and immediately goes to the hospital. Before leaving, he asks the servant to take good care of Macie, saying that he goes out in the morning for errands. No one is allowed to say anything about what happened today. After that, he gets in the car.

On the other side, Troy is leading the expert panel to develop the antidote for Kevin day and night, and suddenly the door is pushed open.

Having stayed in the dark for a long time, it takes a long while for Troy to recognize who the man at the door is. It is Kevin's father, Wade.

Troy curses “shit” secretly. Seeing Wade like this, he should already know what happened. It's just that who the hell told Wade?

"Troy, come here." Wade walks in and calls Troy to him.

The experts in the room are all dissatisfied with Wade who breaks in suddenly, and doesn’t want anyone to disturb them when they are working seriously.

But from Wade's appearance, they can tell he is probably Troy's senior. Seeing Troy's respect for Wade, they don’t react much. After all, Wade is out now and doesn’t bother them.

Troy also knows these experts well, making an apologetic gesture to them, and hurriedly follows Wade out. His mind is spinning quickly trying to find a reason for this whole thing, and he wants to cover for Kevin.

Seeing the solemn back of Wade, Troy has no choice but to bite the bullet and walks over. He thinks about it again. Since Wade has found this place, which means that he already knows almost everything, and the excuses he thinks up are probably useless.

Wade stops at the door of Kevin's ward, watching his sturdy son now lying motionless on the hospital bed, with various tubes still inserted all over his body.

Seeing this, Wade feels like he is getting old instantly. Don’t people always say that old people are blessed? Why does he still have to go through these things at this age?

"Come on, you don't have to cover for him. I already know everything. What's the matter with the toxin in my son's body?"

Wade asks Troy directly. Under such circumstances, he has no time to waste, and there is no time for him to be mad at them because they didn’t tell him the truth.

"Wade, the toxin in Kevin's body is a toxin that has not yet been discovered in the world. Since it is newly discovered, there is no antidote for it, so we have gathered top experts around the world to help Kevin day and night and try to develop the antidote. But the toxin will spread faster and faster over time. Especially in the past few days, you have also seen that the situation is really not optimistic. I am afraid that Kevin’s body will be unable to endure it. Therefore, all of us have been working overtime on it these days."

From the dark circles on Troy's face, he knows that what he says is true. What's more, he grows up with Kevin, and is his good buddy. He will not hurt him definitely. He knows it clearly.

"How can you hide something like this from me?" Wade scolds Troy. If Bulter hadn't told him today, he would still be kept in the dark.

As a father, he doesn’t even know about the fact that his son is suffering from such a disease. To put it ugly, if something terrible really happens to Kevin, he wouldn't even know how he die!

"Wade, I'm sorry, we shouldn't hide it from you, but Ellison suggested not telling you. We are afraid that if you know, you can't bear it."

"What! Do you mean that Ellison also knows about this? And he deliberately keeps it from me?" Wade asks with some disbelief. It turns out that even as his father, he is the last one to know about it, and everyone is hiding it from him.

Troy sees Wade getting angry suddenly, and unconsciously covers his mouth with his hand, as if he has said something wrong.
