Chapter 808

Thud! He fell back onto the bed heavily.

"Uncle Derrick!" Arianna exclaimed.

Stephanie rushed forward, exclaiming frantically, "Derrick?! Derrick! Doctor! Call the doctor!"

In a panic, she pressed the emergency buzzer by the bed, and soon, a doctor and a few nurses rushed

in, kicking the rest out.

Then they began with their emergency procedures.

Stephanie stood outside the door and appeared to have aged rapidly.She looked lifeless while her

tears fell like a broken pearl necklace.She was not in good health in the first place, and now she looked

like she would collapse at any minute.

Arianna did not leave and stood by her side, passing her a tissue.

"Aunt Stephanie, don’t be too upset.I’m sure Uncle Derrick will be fine."

Stephanie refused to take the tissue from Arianna but suddenly raised her head, staring at the latter

with resentment and anger.

"Ari, why did you say something like that? Don’t you know that you can't stir up your uncle’s emotions,

especially right now?"

"Aunt Stephanie, I didn’t do it on purpose.It was a slip of the tongue...and Uncle Derrick insisted that I

answer him.You saw that Thad no choice."

Arianna looked aggrieved, explaining that Derrick had forced her into doing what she did.

"Not on purpose? You did it deliberately! Also, how do you know about Benny’s situation?"

Stephanie stared at Arianna as she asked.

Although her body was weak, her mind was still clear.

"Well...I heard that from our people.We care a lot about Benedict's whereabouts too.Since Uncle

Derrick had been sick for so long, we thought Benedict should come back to take care of him and take

over the company, but..."

Arianna sighed faintly and continued staring at the closed door, "Aunt Stephanie, I know you’re upset,

and I feel the same.I know Uncle Derrick is feeling terrible too, but how long can you hide that from

him? Forever? Rather than letting Uncle Derrick miss Benedict so much and feel dissatisfaction or

misunderstanding toward him, it’s better to tell him the truth.That’s the best for Uncle Derrick."

The door blocked her line of sight.

The doors did not have tiny windows, so anyone outside the ward could not see what was happening

inside.

They had no idea how the emergency procedures went.

Judging from the situation earlier, Derrick would probably be in a worse state.

Arianna did not expect him to fall so sick when he had always been in good health.

"Ari, I didn't think you’d say such a thing! I can’t believe that you're the one who broke the news to him!"

Stephanie reprimanded angrily.

"Aunt Stephanie, it’s normal regardless of who brought it up."

Arianna thought about it and took a few pieces of paper out of the folder.

She flipped it open and said, "Aunt Stephanie, since Uncle Derrick is so sick, you should be

safeguarding his assets, right? Is his personal stamp with you too? Could you lend it to me?"

Upon hearing that, Stephanie looked at her warily.

"What are you planning to do?"

"It’s nothing.We just had to put many things on hold because Uncle Derrick hasn't been to the company

for a long time.I thought I'd be troubling him if I had to visit him occasionally to discuss the company’s

matters.What about passing his stamp to me? That’ll be easier for me to settle things too, don’t you

think?"

"You're trying to seize his authority!"

Stephanie took a step back, still looking at Arianna warily.

"Aunt Stephanie, don’t say things like that.What do you mean by I want to seize his authority? We're a

family.Also, I’m handling most of the company’s matters when he isn’t around, aren’t I? Passing the

stamp to me would only do you good so that no one else would come and bother the both of you.
