Right after he said that, the doctor glared at him angrily. “Are you serious? If you insist on boarding the plane, you’ll die on the way back!”

Edmund fell silent.

“All right, he’ll stay. I’ll pay the fees now!” She grabbed the notice from the doctor and left to pay the medical expense for him.

“Mm?”

Edmund put on a calm look and sat up to look at his subordinate.

“Have you settled everything?” he questioned tersely.

“Yes. You told me. Mr. Cooper would be there soon, but he didn’t show up, though I waited for two hours,” the man stated doubtfully.
