Chereads / Stop following me, Mafia king / Chapter 20 - Waiting for the call

Chapter 20 - Waiting for the call

Lydia was swiftly placed on Daniel's king-size bed, he placed a pillow on her head, and he treated her as if she were some kind of treasure only found once in thousands of years.

His secretary realized something was wrong, so he called a doctor immediately upon seeing him holding the woman.

A doctor checked her shortly after. As the doctor checked on the woman in the bed, he was under stress from being stared at by the father-son pair with sharp eyes. Moments later, he explained what was wrong with her body and why she fainted. Soon the doctor was grabbed by his collar by Daniel.

"What the hell do you mean, she's malnourished? Are you sure you're not some quack?!" A voice growled, a loud clattering followed afterwards.​​

"Boss!" Adam cried out, grabbing his boss's hand. "He's the family doctor, violence isn't the best answer…"

He whispered, "Shhhhh... Why are you screaming? Mommy is tired and needs a break. Stop screaming or I'll get you all out of here and tell mom that you guys are the ones who woke her up.". All of them stopped talking and looked at the small kid, surprised.

Was that little cute Xander just telling them that if they make any more noise, he will quick them out?!

In the morning, Lydia woke up hooked to IV drips. She groaned in confusion, hearing strange whispering in the background. Lydia opened her eyes to see servants whispering something, but she could still hear them since they were in the room. Her head was pounding and her eyes hurt just to open it.

"Here we are again. The woman didn't wake up yet, didn't you notice the master's gloomy face this morning as he walked to work?!! I thought he was going to kill me when he asked me if she was awake! She had better wake up before he turns the house upside-down." said one female servant.

The other woman replied, "I know, but it's the first time I've ever seen the master touch a woman willingly and even care for her. Additionally, the little master, who calls her mommy, didn't want to go back to his room, but wanted to stay with the woman."

"He also heard that the master did not sleep last night, but locked himself in his study room all night without sleeping an inch!" Said the other one.

She glanced at the IV drips hooked up to her, then at her surroundings, and then at everything else. "What the hell?" she muttered.

The fight at the airport, the hospital, and then when she fainted in the car when that guy told her to get out.

'Although I refused to go to his house, it seems like he ended up taking me there, anyway.'

She looked terrified to death at them; they believed she woke up because they were making noise. In particular, the master instructed them not to wake her until she woke up on her own.

All of them were now screwed up. When the unconscious woman was lying down in her master's room, why did they even talk?

All of them left the room and closed the door behind them. They went to tell the butler that the woman woke up and he should call the master and tell him.

*****************

There was pin-drop silence in the meeting room, as though there was no one in, but in reality, there were 13 people seated at the long meeting table;

There were six board members on each side and one sitting at the end; there was about two feet between the man at one end of the table and the other board members; as though he was sick.

He was busy with his phone as they waited for him. He was twirling a pen in his right hand, and although he carried a fearful aura. All but one of them did not exaggerate, and they sat down, awaiting his start.

In fact, he was waiting for a phone call telling him what he was so eager to hear. He just wanted to hear her voice for once. Last night, he spent it all punishing himself by doing work all night for ignoring her in the car before she fainted and after that too.

Ten minutes later, he lost hope, so he dropped his phone and looked at the people in the boardroom.

"Begin," He said, reclining backward on the side.
