In the following days, Zayn began to receive closed treatment formally.
After the medical team examined him, it was clear that there should be no outside interference during the treatment, otherwise all previous efforts would be lost.
Moreover, they could not guarantee that all toxins would be totally removed.
After all, in the previous incident, when they treated Carla, it was just a temporary measure to help her stay alive. In the end, they had to depend on Derelo…
The legendary Derelo did not have a fixed address and he was travelling constantly. It took Daemon a long time to find him. By then, Carla's treatment was done, leaving behind some sequelae.
Derelo could not restart the healing process so he created for her a potion to be taken whenever the sickness relapsed to manage the pain…
Now, Zayn was in a similar situation. In order not to miss the best treatment time, he had to receive treatment first. No one could predict the future results, but at least he could stay alive.
In order to deter the attention of the public, Southridge was sealed off, leaving only some loyal subordinates and domestic servants, who were not allowed to enter or leave at will.
Two weeks passed by quickly. Zayn did not show himself.
The senior executives of Divine Corporation said that Zayn had gone to M Nation to handle the affairs of the headquarters and would be not expected to return to Aymo City in the near future.
There were rumors and speculations that Zayn did not go to M Nation but rather had shut himself up because he was depressed and feeling hopeless since his only love was preparing to marry someone else.
Not long after, there were speculations about where Zayn had really gone to…
Divine Corporation and Giblo Group did not respond to those speculations and rumors.
No matter what the question was, their reply was that Mr. Giblo would return after two months.
Meanwhile, in Erihal, Carla heard the news from Aymo City and she felt rather puzzled…
Even if Zayn really felt sad and hopeless over her marriage to Lucas, he could not be depressed to such an extent, could he?
They were all very prominent figures with great power whose jobs affected society, so it was important for them not to be brought down by their personal lives.
Nonetheless, it was up to him to do as he wished and it was none of her business.
Thus, Carla consoled herself but still, she felt disturbed.
She asked Randy if he had contacted Daddy. Randy said that he was not able to get through Daddy's phone in the past two weeks and Josh said Daddy had gone to M Nation. He was at Mr. Thompson's for the time being.
When Randy questioned further, Josh said he had to leave for school.
Randy felt that it was strange. He could sense that Josh was not telling him everything.
The more he asked, the more Josh evaded his questions. Finally, Josh stopped accepting his calls.
Randy related these to Carla and he asked in a worried tone, "Mommy, has something bad happened to Daddy?"
"Not necessarily, " Carla comforted him, saying, "It is possible that he is really busy at the headquarters in M Nation…"
"No matter how busy, it is not necessary to cut off all communication." Randy was very anxious. "Is he so busy that he cannot even pick up the phone? Besides, I keep feeling Josh is hiding something from me. It's weird."
"Mommy, I miss Daddy and Josh." Venus's tears rolled down her face when she thought that something might have happened to Daddy. "Let's go back to see them, okay?"
"Venus…" Carla was about to console her little girl when there was a loud knock on the door. "Ms. Lierger, this is urgent."
Carla went to open the door and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
Freda bent near her ear and whispered a few words. Carla's countenance changed and she instantly replied, "Get the car ready, I'll change and come downstairs now."
"Yes." Freda quickly went downstairs to arrange for the car.
Carla hugged Randy and Venus, speaking to them gently, "Randy and Venus, I'm going over to Uncle Dan's place. You both be good. I'm coming home a little late."
"Mommy, when will we go home?" Venus looked at her Mommy questioningly.
"Venus, after forty-five days, you'll be totally cured. Then, Daddy will come to fetch you, " Carla spoke to her, holding her face, "I am sure your Daddy is fine. Don't worry, dear!"
