Chapter 264

A few hours ago, Wyatt was about to knock off work and visit Neil.

Neil hadn’t been showing up at the hospital lately, and their phone calls had let Wyatt know that Neil wasn’t doing great, having made a few trips to the hospital himself.

Neil’s absence these past few days had Wyatt somewhat worried.

Despite some beef between him and the Pennyfeather family over Maja three years ago, Neil had kept him on board at the company, which offered Wyatt some solace.

Now he wanted to swing by Neil’s office and drop off a document. Carter Booth had been speaking for Neil these past few days, which gave Wyatt a bit of a gut ache.

Carter might have been with Neil for a while, but Wyatt figured he was the one who knew Neil first.

How could a forty–something assistant boss him around now?

The company’s top floor was deserted by now; Wyatt saw that the office door was ajar. As he heard Cristina Perkins‘ voice, he was about to push it open.

Cristina also worked at the company, and Neil had assigned her a position that wasn’t too high or low. Although she didn’t hold absolute power, she occasionally participated in decision–making.

At this moment, Cristina was far from her usual virtuous and quiet self and making improper noises.
