Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Gambling One’s Own Life
"Since all of you are back, I will tell you. Charlotte was almost assaulted in Druarus. If it hadn’t been for the protection of the young man Henry Hudson, I shudder to think of the consequences."
"What?" The grandsons chimed in shock, their eyes filled with worry.
They had never imagined that their beloved Charlotte Thompson, who they had spoiled for five years, would encounter such trouble during a trip to Druarus!
"How could this happen? Is Charlotte alright?"
"Henry said Charlotte was fine, but as for that boy Henry Hudson..."
"So, grandfather, you’re packing up to go to Druarus to see Henry Hudson?" Joshua Thompson was the first to guess the purpose of Jason Thompson’s trip, and he spoke with a certain finality.
"That’s right. That lad, Henry, has risked his life for Charlotte. He’s not that bad."
Jason Thompson spoke gravely, his eyes revealing a hint of nonchalance, but his gaze held a trace of admiration.
He could see that young man Henry Hudson was interested in Charlotte Thompson.
He always thought that Charlotte was their treasure. The one who deserves her must be exceptional, a standout in the crowd.
Looking at it now, Henry Hudson who risked his life for Charlotte, had a prominent status which indeed satisfied him.
"Surely, I’ve always known that Henry Hudson would treat Charlotte well. He’s even risked his life. We must thank him this time."
"Grandfather, there’s not much going on at the company recently. It just so happens that elder brother is expanding the business in Druarus, we can go and help him."
"I don’t know how Charlotte is doing recently. She hasn’t been back to see us for so long."
"Yes, yes, we haven’t seen these little ones for a long time. I miss them so much."
"Charlotte must be missing us too."
"Indeed, grandfather, you’re old. I’m worried that you’ll be alone on your way back. Why don’t we brothers go with you? There’s a lot of work to be done in the company, and you can’t handle it all alone."
The brothers began to chatter, and the once-cold mansion instantly became lively.
Jason Thompson remained calm, watching them chatting enthusiastically before him.
After a moment, he asked the butler to fetch his mobile phone.
Jason Thompson glanced at his surprised heirs, then handed his phone to them.
"Grandfather." Jake Thompson’s eyes filled with tears; he was touched.
"Oh my God, grandfather, you’re so efficient."
"I was just about to contact my secretary to buy plane tickets. But now it seems like we won’t be needing it."
"Humph." Jason Thompson gave a coy huff, his small mustache making him look rather adorable. He lowered his head slightly and spoke in a casual manner.
"By the time you young lads finish dawdling, I’ll have already arrived in Druarus."
The children fell silent, looking at each other in disbelief.
"Alright, alright. Hurry up and pack your things."
Jason Thompson raised his eyebrows, emanating an air of authority.
A large group of them boarded their private jet and soon arrived in Ashton.
"Located. Charlotte’s at the People’s Hospital". Joshua Thompson fixed his gaze on the computer, quickly spotting Charlotte Thompson’s location.
"Druarus has such heavy smog, how can Charlotte bear to stay."
"Enough with your complaints, hurry up and follow grandfather."
"Ah, just thinking about seeing Charlotte in a while, my heart is unexpectedly excited."
"Alright, put that away. Didn’t you see grandfather’s solemn face?"
"All of you, hurry up and locate the children’s positions."Jason Thompson squinted his eyes at the hazy, steam-filled view before him, his heart weighing heavily.
