Chapter 260After getting the news from her dad that he was okay and fine, and could walk again and was ready to go home, Alisha was overjoyed.She had been worried sick about him ever since he got down with the stroke, and hearing his voice full of life again was a massive relief.The smile on her face was impossible to hide as she moved through her day at work, but she found it increasingly difficult to concentrate.Her thoughts kept drifting back to Sky Care. She imagined her dad standing up from his hospital bed, walking steadily with the help of the nurses, and the smile on his face when he saw her. The clock seemed to be ticking slower than ever. "Why does time always move so slowly when you're looking forward to something?" she wondered with a smile.She tried to focus on her tasks, answering calls and attending meetings, but her mind was elsewhere. Colleagues noticed her distracted state, and a few even teased her about being in love. She just laughed it off, not wanting to sh

Chapter 261Meanwhile, they got home around 10 pm that night. The gate was locked, so Alisha honked several times, but there was no answer.Richard noticed her frustration and said, "Don't worry, honey, I've got this."He tried getting out of the car, but Alisha stopped him. "Dad, I'll handle it," she said.But Richard insisted, "No, I'll do it."He finally got out of the car and proceeded to go open the gate for her.At that moment, Kate was already coming out of the house, muttering, "I'm coming, I'm coming." She scolded, "Whoever is blowing that horn, take it easy! Alisha, is that you? Where are you coming from this late?"As she opened the gate, she was shocked to see her husband, Richard, standing there. "Richard!" she exclaimed, "You're back and on your feet!"She tried to hug him, but Richard pushed her away. "Get out of my way," he barked. "I'll slap you if you don't disappear from my sight."Kate was shocked and embarrassed, remaining silent as Richard opened the gate fully f

Chapter 262It was almost 5pm.Meanwhile, Eric Wood sat in his office, the dim lighting reflecting his somber mood as he stared at the phone on his desk. The thought of visiting Liam Carter in the hospital sent chills down his bones.Liam has been effectively blackmailing him into a business partnership, and it weighed heavily on his mind because Liam might accuse him of being responsible for current state. He ran a hand through his hair, debating whether it was worth the trouble. Despite the coercion, Liam was going to be a significant business partner, and maintaining a good relationship seemed crucial. But the idea of bowing to Liam’s demands left a bitter taste in his mouth.Finally, he sighed and picked up the phone, dialing James’ number.James was at his desk, organizing documents when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Eric. "Eric," he answered, his voice steady. "What’s up?""James," Eric began, his tone hesitant. "I’ve been thinking... should I go se

Chapter 263Eric Wood stepped out of the car, his driver quickly moving to open the door for him. He nodded in acknowledgment, adjusting his suit jacket as he stepped onto the pavement.The familiar sight of the hospital loomed before him, a place he had visited countless times with his daughter, Claire, for her checkups. It felt different today, though. This visit wasn’t for Claire—it was business, and it was personal.As he walked toward the entrance, a few hospital workers milling about recognized him. Their faces lit up with recognition as they approached him.“Mr. Wood, good afternoon!” one of the nurses greeted him with a warm smile. “It’s been a while since we last saw you.”“Good afternoon, Mr. Wood,” another worker chimed in, extending a hand. “How have you been?”Eric smiled politely, shaking hands with them. “Good afternoon,” he replied, his tone friendly but professional. “It’s good to see all of you. How’s everyone doing?”“We’re doing well, sir,” the first nurse responde

Chapter 264As they approached Liam’s room, Eric’s thoughts shifted to the task at hand—one that could shape the future of EMC and his own personal fate.“We are here, Sir.” The nurse said, interrupting Eric's thoughts.“Oh! Thank you,” Eric replied and smiled at her.He readied himself before entering.As Eric stepped into Liam's room, he noticed the subtle tension in the air. Liam was seated upright in his hospital bed, a book resting on his lap. He looked up as Eric entered, his expression neutral but with a hint of curiosity.His lips curled into a faint smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Eric,” he said smoothly, closing the book and placing it on the table beside him. “What a pleasant surprise.”Eric forced a smile, trying to hide his nerves. "Liam, it's good to see you. I wanted to check in and see how you're doing after... everything that happened."Liam’s smile widened, a predatory glint in his eyes, as he cracked his knuckles. “That’s very considerate of you. I’m recove

Chapter 265Eric Wood’s thoughts were swirling as he walked out of the hospital. His encounter with Liam Carter left a bitter taste in his mouth, and he couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling that had settled in his chest.He was so lost in his own mind that he didn’t even notice when his driver opened the car door for him.“Sir,” Jackson called respectfully, his voice cutting through Eric’s reverie.Eric blinked, coming back to reality. “Oh, sorry, Jackson,” he murmured as he slid into the backseat of the sleek black sedan. Jackson, without needing any instructions, started the engine and pulled out of the hospital parking lot, heading towards Diamond Ville, the upscale neighborhood where Eric’s family resided.As they drove, the streets were alive with the evening’s activities. Vendors packed up their stalls, couples strolled along the sidewalks, and children played with the last remnants of daylight. But the sights and sounds of the bustling city barely registered with Eric.His mind wa

Chapter 266Eric stepped into the house, feeling the comforting warmth of home surrounding him. He closed the door behind him and called out, “Honey, I’m home!”Almost instantly, he heard the rapid patter of small footsteps on the wooden stairs. “Daddy!” Claire’s excited voice echoed through the hallway as she dashed down the stairs, her little legs moving as fast as they could.Eric’s face lit up with a smile as he saw his daughter, her curls bouncing with each step. She practically launched herself at him, and he caught her in a warm embrace, lifting her off the ground.“There’s my little princess!” Eric said, laughing as he spun her around. Claire giggled uncontrollably, wrapping her tiny arms around his neck.“I missed you, Daddy!” Claire exclaimed, her voice muffled slightly as she buried her face in his shoulder.“I missed you too, sweetheart,” Eric replied, holding her close. He could feel the stress of the day melting away, replaced by the pure joy of being with his daughter.
JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE Chapter 267
Chapter 267Eric took a moment to enjoy the tranquility of the bedroom as he freshened up, splashing cool water on his face and changing into a more comfortable outfit.The mirror reflected his tired eyes, but there was a lightness in them now that hadn’t been there earlier. He could hear the clinking of dishes and the soft hum of conversation coming from the dining room below, and it filled him with a deep sense of peace.After a final glance in the mirror, Eric made his way downstairs, where the scent of Mary’s cooking wafted through the air, making his stomach growl in anticipation. As he entered the dining room, he saw Mary placing the last dish on the table while Claire bounced in her seat, her feet barely touching the floor.“There he is!” Mary announced with a smile as Eric walked in, her eyes lighting up when she saw him.“Daddy, come sit next to me!” Claire called out, waving him over enthusiastically.Eric chuckled, his heart swelling at the sight of his daughter’s excitemen
