Chapter 1137: Chapter 1164: A Matter of Life and Death (Part 5)

The Doctor said, if they’d arrived twenty minutes later, the person would have been beyond saving.

Chloe Smith broke into loud cries on the spot, driving away the later-arriving Windsor Myres, squatting on the ground, unable to stop her sobbing.

Camden River’s legs went weak, nearly kneeled to the ground.

Troy River has cerebrovascular disease, his temperament is stubborn, Chloe has always been accommodating to him at home. He rarely gets a chance to come home, admired her father since childhood, and would never confront the father she respects deeply.

This time, however, it nearly cost him his life.

Failed as a son.

Camden River stayed in the hospital for several days. Troy River awoke that same night but entirely ignored him.

He didn’t speak to him, refused to eat anything Camden brought, his anger was immense.

The Doctor said he must not be angered, Camden had no choice but to stay in the hospital, didn’t dare to approach him, and was called out by Phillip Hanson on Tuesday afternoon; together, they investigated a news report on toxic milk powder.

The news aired on Wednesday, causing a huge uproar domestically, stirring public outrage.

On the same day, the dairy producer, Lovegem Group, underwent investigation by the quality supervision department, the next day the stock plummeted to the bottom, by Friday, the chairman, over fifty years old, couldn’t bear the pressure and jumped off a building.

The news had too much of an impact, even Troy River in the hospital knew about it, his discontent toward Camden inexplicably lessened somewhat.

Camden River breathed a long sigh of relief.

The Doctor advised Troy River to rest quietly for several days, Camden River’s vacation ended and he took several days off in a row.

To care for Troy River in the hospital.

Though Troy River’s mood had somewhat calmed, he couldn’t bring himself to face, still ignoring him, instead, he enjoyed talking happily with the visiting Max Turner, who happened to be the father of Chloe, he grew up eating food from every household. After going to school, he changed his name to Turner, intending to remind himself to do good once grown up.

This time accompanying Troy River to see the exhibition, he wasn’t aware of Windsor Myres’ matter, but he also knew Troy River’s sudden heart attack hospitalization was because Camden River had a girlfriend he wasn’t quite satisfied with.

He cheerfully started to counsel, fate of children will find its way, parents just can’t fathom young people’s minds, let them be.

Troy River shook his head, refuting him, no, kids lack experience, easily suffer losses, parents not gatekeeping just won’t do.

The two talked for a long time, neither persuading the other.

Afternoon came soon, Max Turner was to leave, Camden River took him to the elevator, sincerely saying, "Thank you, Uncle."

"No need, no need." Max Turner cheerfully patted his shoulder, sighed, "Who doesn’t make some mistakes when young, besides, having a girlfriend following your heart is not wrong, your dad is stubborn but not unreasonable, a little coaxing will do."

"Yes, thank you for your concern." Camden River politely escorted him into the elevator, only when seeing the elevator door close did he turn around and walk away.

Max Turner sighed in the elevator.

Troy River had always praised this son of his lavishly, truly not a word of exaggeration.

The young man is handsome, clear-eyed, tall and well-educated, especially so righteous, looking decent.

What a pity.

If he’d met Troy River earlier, he’d find a way to matchmake his daughter for sure.

Not at a loss like now.

As they say, every family has a skeleton in its closet.

Max Turner is not entirely satisfied with Daniel Davis as a prospective son-in-law. ℯℯ𝘭.

When Chloe’s mother initially sought him out to demand a lawsuit, Daniel’s attitude didn’t create the best first impression, roughly only after he expressed that money was not an issue, regardless to restore his daughter’s reputation, did Daniel’s attitude subtly change.
