They had been taking care of his child, yet he had managed to drive them away…
Nathaniel felt incredibly guilty, wrestling with his words until he finally managed to blurt out a dry, Are you getting a divorce?
Mila was silent for a moment.
Come on, be serious. We’re talking about your nephew here!
But she was puzzled too. This has been going on for a while. The court date is almost here. Didn’t Lysander tell you?
Nathaniel was taken aback. How long ago?
Mila frowned, Since last year.
Well, at least it wasn’t his fault for pressuring anyone. His brother had been impressively tight-lipped, not spilling a word despite seeing each other frequently.
Nathaniel felt even more troubled.
Mila, on the other hand, was running out of patience. She had been up all night dealing with car issues and hadn’t caught a wink of sleep. Her mind and body were both exhausted.
She started ushering him out.
In any case, find a professional therapist as soon as possible. I know a few; I’ll send their contacts over later, or you can look for one yourself.
After sending Nathaniel on his way, Mila pulled out her phone and forwarded the contacts of some reputable therapists she had met over the years.
Her mother-in-law’s condition had compelled her to learn a lot about this field.
She had assumed Nathaniel already had someone lined up, especially since the child seemed to be doing better recently, even attending school regularly. But without her presence, things had quickly deteriorated.
Mila had a lot on her mind but was too exhausted to dwell on it. She lay down beside the child and soon fell asleep.
…
Nathaniel left the hospital still feeling dazed.
Once she was out of sight, Giselle’s smile disappeared, and she asked quietly into her phone, Dad, what’s up?
Have they found anyone yet? Charles’s voice was urgent. He had been searching tirelessly, shocked that so many people had been sent out that night, yet they couldn’t stop one person from slipping away.
The main issue was underestimating the audacity of the other party, especially since they carried a gun everywhere, enabling their escape.
Now, there were no leads.
We’ve narrowed down the area. It shouldn’t take much longer, Giselle replied, frowning.
Good, keep an eye on things and let me know the moment you hear anything. We can’t let them find him first. Meanwhile, I’ll spread the news about the head of the Lockwood family being in trouble. It’s the perfect chance to bring them down.
If the Lockwood family was in turmoil, capital would be redistributed, and the Forest Team would reconsider their partnerships.
The current situation posed no downside for the Harvey family.
Understood, Giselle affirmed.
