Chapter 52 I No Longer Have a Father

Jenny didn’t mind it at all. Once the man left, she asked Joey, “How do you feel? Are you

uncomfortable?”

“I’m… I’m fine,” he said, giving her a feeble smile. His face flushed slightly.

When facing his father, he could be cold, but with Jenny, he felt a little embarrassed.

“Tell me if there are any problems. I’m the doctor in charge of you,” she said.

Joey nodded. He was then reminded of something and instantly looked upset. “I… I don’t have the

money to pay for the medical bills.”

He had heard that the doctor before him was famous, and that the surgery would not come cheap. He

was just a child. There was no way he could afford it.

Mr. Little had said those things because he knew Joey had no money-he had no means to pay for his

education and livelihood, let alone the hospital. He expected Joey to come begging.

“It’s okay. The hospital has medical aid. You don’t have to worry about it. Just lie back and rest.” Jenny’s

heart couldn’t help aching when she saw him like this. Although she had no parents, she was far more

blessed than he was.

“The police have called you, haven’t they? How do you feel?” she asked. She was worried that Mr. Little

had gotten into his head. If Karen got out, she might attempt to harm him again, and he might not

survive.

Joey nodded. His gaze dimmed. “I will tell the truth.”

Jenny smiled. That was good. It meant that he would not let her go. “And your father…” She was still a

little worried.

“Ever since he married that woman, I’ve lost my father.” Joey couldn’t help smiling when he spoke, but

there was pain behind that smile.

Jenny’s heart was hurting. “Rest well, Joey. You can ask for me if you run into any problems.”

“Thank you,” he said.

Jenny walked out of the room. There was a burden on her chest. Kids at sixteen were supposed to be

carefree, but he had to deal with all this. The more she thought about it, the more she felt like she had to

do something.

She instructed security to keep a lookout for Mr. Little and stop him from getting in the way of Joey’s

recovery. Then, she called Zack, telling him to investigate Karen White. She reasoned someone as vile

as Karen must have done awful things in the past.

In Faust Group, the employees were feeling the dreariness of the day.

Since morning, every department had suffered a scolding from Alec. Everyone understood that he was in

a bad mood today, and they steered clear of his path.

Vincent did not wish to get in his way, but as the president’s assistant, he had to.

“Mr. Faust, this is the financial report you requested.” Vincent slid the report over carefully.

Alec muttered a reply, busying himself with work.

Vincent gritted his teeth at the sight. “Something happened at Lawrence Solutions.”

Alec raised his head, looking at him.

Vincent dared not waste his time and quickly slid over his tablet. The trending news of Lawrence

Solutions was on the screen.

Alec looked at them all. His phone rang-it was Faye. He hesitated for a moment before picking up.

“Alec, something terrible has happened to my father’s company. He’s been taken away.” Faye sounded

like she was sobbing.

Alec frowned, feeling irritated. “I know. I’ll think of a way.”

“Thank you, Alec.” There was nothing else that Faye could say.

He hung up and ordered Vincent to investigate. Then, he said, “Look for the person who posted all this

as well. Why would they target Lawrence Solutions out of the blue?”

“Yes, sir.” Vincent nodded and left the office.
