Chapter 542: Chapter 543 Some Kind of Metaphor [Additional Chapter for Monthly Votes]

"Sir!" Paul leapt out of the car, walked up to his side, and reminded him in a soft voice, "Remember to take your medicine when you get back."

Seeing the man nod slightly, Paul signaled to the bodyguard to follow and protect Moses. He watched him enter the elevator before getting back into the car and leaving the hotel.

Back in his room, Moses gestured for the bodyguard to leave, took his medication, and swallowed a pill. He then placed the water glass casually on the coffee table.

Noticing the photo album on the coffee table, he carefully moved the water glass away and lifted the heavy object that was pressing down on the photos.

The photo was severely creased, and although it had been pressed down all night, the fold was still very visible.

This particular photo was a joint portrait of the two, and coincidentally, the crease divided the image of their close bodies right in half, as if it were some kind of metaphor.

Moses’s fingers lightly traced along the crease on the photo, and he furrowed his brow, sinking into thought once again.

In the time to come, he would need to think carefully about what he should do.

Even though Gan Yuan insisted that she was fine, Huangfu Jue still insisted on calling a doctor.

As they hurried back to the Duke Residence, the doctor had already been waiting in the hall. After carefully examining Gan Yuan, the doctor concluded.

"Miss Gan’s blood pressure is a bit low, but everything else is fine."

"Why is her blood pressure low?" Huangfu Jue immediately asked.

Seeing his concern, the doctor comforted him with a smile, "She’s probably just a little tired these past few days. A good rest should help her recover."

"Does she need any medication?" Huangfu Jue was still worried.

The doctor, being his personal physician and knowing his temperament, prescribed her a small bottle of vitamin pills, even though Gan Yuan didn’t really need any medication, as a psychological comfort to Huangfu Jue.

After the doctor left, Huangfu Jue personally escorted her upstairs to rest.

"I understand how you feel, but..." Gan Yuan took hold of his hand, "promise me, forget about what happened today, okay?"

Knowing she was referring to the altercation between Moses and himself, Huangfu Jue scowled for a moment before finally nodding lightly.

"Stop thinking about those things and lie down properly." He set her up with the pillows and then asked with concern, "What would you like to eat?"

In fact, she had no appetite at all, but still smiled and ordered a bowl of plain porridge.

"Close your eyes and rest for a bit, I’ll go have them prepare it."

Huangfu Jue stood up and walked out, instructing the butler on his way.

After the butler left, Helen stepped forward.

"I’m sorry, Mr. Duke."

Huangfu Jue’s brow was slightly furrowed.

"It’s not your fault."

Although he was violent and domineering, he was not unreasonable. When he got out of the car, he had glanced at it, and it was the driver’s side that had taken the impact; Helen had done everything she could.

"The report came in," Will stepped forward, "A call from the transportation department. The culprit has no prior record and is an ordinary taxi driver, whose vehicle’s brake system seems to have had some problems. I’ve ordered a thorough inspection of the car, and we’ll notify you once we get the results. "

As he said this, he glanced toward the direction of the door and then turned his gaze to Huangfu Jue.

Realizing he had something to say, Huangfu Jue signaled Helen to take care of Gan Yuan and took Will into the study.

"Just now, I saw someone," Will’s eyes flashed with the image of Jessica, "It was that girl, the one from before, one of Moses’s subordinates. I couldn’t understand why, every time, Moses is always one step ahead of you..."

Huangfu Jue turned his face and voiced the conclusion that Will dared not say.

"Because he’s been stalking her!"
