Chapter: 372
"No. Everyone thinks you're getting married abroad. Many business people have contacted me, wanting to send you some wedding gifts."
"You don't need to reject all of them; select a few to accept, and then find a chance to reciprocate."
"Understood."
After ending the call, Jonathan pocketed his phone and leaned back, intending to catch a quick nap. Yet, unbidden, the little girl's face swam into focus in his mind's eye. He'd left in such haste, without even learning her name or giving her the promised candies.
With a slight furrow of his brow, he fired off a text to Brody.
“Are you going to Westsilver for business soon?"
"Yes. The resort project construction has begun."
"Do me a favor. Go to Room 9®8 at Dreamer Hotel and discreetly take a photo of the little girl staying there, and find out her name for me."
He felt that forgetting Bethany had nothing to do with anyone else.
That little girl and he had a connection; at least it would be good to know her name.
Jonathan could imagine Brody's shock upon seeing the news.
It wasn't what he would have asked for. Yet, he always believed he was destined to meet that little girl again someday.
Bethany remained in the hospital until Aimee called in the evening.
Realizing she could no longer conceal her whereabouts, she admitted to Aimee that she was in the hospital.
Shortly after, Aimee arrived at the hospital with Nola in tow.
Bursting into the room, she exclaimed, "Let me see who dared to hit you!"
"Shh, this is the hospital! Keep it down." Bethany hushed her with a finger to her Lips. ‘m okay. Look, I'm still here."
"You've been attacked, and yet you say you're fine! Bethany, you can quit. It's too dangerous. Don't do this anymore!"
Aimee stood by the bed, hands on her hips, ready to avenge her friend.
Bethany appreciated Aimee's concern, but...
“Aimee, I need money to recover that footage. Without it, I forfeit any chance to uncover the truth!"
That was her mother! Her mother had sacrificed so much for her. If there was no evidence of what happened, she could do nothing about it.
"Isn't it easy for you to make money? If you're willing to marry Jayson..."
“Aimee!" Bethany cut her off sharply.
