Bardon Bard grinned and said, "Sister Betty, you’re truly deserving of the title ’goddess’. You’re becoming more and more beautiful!"
Julie Stewart chuckled lightly, "You’re just sweet-talking me."
"Brother Bardon Bard is telling the truth this time. Sister Betty, you are indeed becoming more and more charming!"
Prajna Bates also chimed in, laughing happily.
"Alright, alright, stop showering me with praise."
Julie Stewart waved a hand and said, "I’ve already booked a table at a restaurant, let’s go get some food first."
The four, including Lionel Yeager, nodded in agreement.
Then, they followed Julie Stewart into a stretched Bentley Mulsanne and left the airport.
On their way to the city centre,
Lionel Yeager asked, "Sister Betty, how have you been doing recently? Has the Arthur family been mistreating you?"
"I’ve been doing quite well, and no one in the Arthur family has been bullying me."
Julie Stewart shook her head and asked, "What about you guys? How have you been getting on?"
Bardon Bard rolled his eyes and replied, "Sister Betty, you have no idea, we’ve been through hell and high water recently. We’ve turned Sakura Country upside down..."
Lionel Yeager coughed lightly.
This guy just couldn’t keep his mouth shut.
Lily Tisdale and Prajna Bates gave Bardon Bard a cold look.
Bardon Bard felt a chill run down his spine and quickly shut his mouth.
Julie Stewart looked puzzled, "What do you mean you turned Sakura Country upside down? What have you guys been up to?"
Lionel Yeager laughed and said, "Sister Betty, we just went on a trip to Sakura Country, nothing more."
Julie Stewart narrowed her beautiful eyes, "Lionel, are you sure you don’t want to tell me the truth?"
Lionel Yeager smiled awkwardly, "Alright, we’ll chat while eating later."
The car drove for about twenty plus minutes and arrived at a high-end restaurant in the city called the Downing Pavilion.
Upon entering the restaurant, they were led by the waitress to a private room.
After ordering dishes,
Julie Stewart asked, "Lionel, can you share with me now?"
Lionel Yeager nodded, "Alright Sister Betty, I’ll tell you."
In the following time,
Lionel Yeager truthfully told Julie Stewart about what they had done in Sakura Country recently.
After listening to Lionel Yeager’s story,
Julie Stewart was utterly stunned.
She stared blankly at the four of them, took a deep breath, and said, "How long has it been since we last met! How on earth did you guys manage to pull off such an audacious feat?
I can’t believe it, how did you escape in the first place!"
Lionel Yeager said, "In short, it’s a long story. Thankfully, everyone worked together, which was how we managed to successfully escape Sakura Country."
Julie Stewart sighed and said, "Lionel, I know you’re not ordinary and I’m proud that you’re serving your country.
But I hope you can take care of yourself. Don’t get yourself in any danger."
Then, Julie Stewart turned to Lily Tisdale, Bardon Bard, and Prajna Bates, "And you three, you need to take good care of yourselves too."
A warm feeling arose in Lionel Yeager’s heart. He nodded and said, "Sister Betty, don’t worry. We’ll take care of ourselves."
Bardon Bard burst into laughter, "Sister Betty, as long as Brother Yeager is with us, no danger can harm us!"
Julie Stewart responded, "No matter how capable Lionel is, he may encounter enemies he cannot handle.
So, I hope that no matter what you do, your safety comes first."
"Sister Betty, there’s no need to worry, we’ll be fine!"
Lionel Yeager replied, then changed the subject, "Sister Betty, after dinner, let me meet your mother. I want to examine her and see if I can treat her."
Julie Stewart nodded vigorously: "Mullen, I’m counting on you!"
Lionel Yeager said, "I will do my utmost to treat auntie!"
Lionel Yeager’s group took a car to a private hospital called Rena.
Julie Stewart introduced, "This is a private hospital invested by the Arthur Family, and it is one of the best private hospitals in Fragrance River.
Both the medical staff and equipment are top-notch."
Lionel Yeager nodded and said, "It seems that the Arthur Family is quite wealthy."
Julie Stewart said, "I have learned about the situation during this period of time. The Arthur Family is one of the largest families in Fragrance River now, with assets reaching 100 billion. Their power should not be underestimated."
Lionel Yeager joked, "Sister Betty, could it be that you are the chosen one in the legend? Not only is your adoptive father so rich, but your biological father is also very rich."
"You little Mullen, you dare to joke about your sister!"
Julie Stewart charmingly rolled her eyes at Lionel Yeager.
Lionel Yeager smiled and said, "Sister Betty, I just hope you can relax. I will definitely cure auntie!"
Julie Stewart nodded and said, "Yes, I trust you!"
Lionel Yeager’s group walked into the hospital and came to the entrance of an ICU.
There were four black-clad bodyguards guarding the entrance.
"Miss Stewart, hello!"
The four bodyguards greeted respectfully.
Julie Stewart nodded, and then led Lionel Yeager and the others to enter the ward.
However, the four bodyguards stopped Lionel Yeager and the others.
A bodyguard sternly said, "Miss Stewart, you can go in, but these idlers cannot!"
Fury rose in Bardon Bard, "Huh, what makes us idlers?"
Julie Stewart said, "They are all my friends."
The bodyguard said in a difficult position, "In this case, you should still tell the madam."
Julie Stewart’s face turned cold, "Do I need to ask for permission from others to bring my friends to see my mother?"
The bodyguards immediately dared not say anything more.
Without saying anything more, Julie Stewart led Lionel Yeager and the others into the ward.
After seeing Julie Stewart and the others enter the ward, a bodyguard took out his mobile phone and made a call.
A middle-aged woman was lying on a hospital bed.
Several pieces of medical equipment were placed around the bed.
Although the woman had aged, it wasn’t hard to tell through her eyes and brows that she was a beauty in her youth.
Furthermore, Julie Stewart was very similar to her that no one would doubt Julie Stewart was her biological daughter.
Lionel Yeager looked at the plate by the bed and got to know that the woman was named Camilla Greiner.
Seeing Camilla Greiner, Julie Stewart’s eyes suddenly turned red.
She choked slightly, "I just want my mother to wake up, to see that I’m back."
Lionel Yeager gently patted her shoulder and said, "Sister Betty, don’t be sad, I will definitely cure auntie."
That said, Lionel Yeager came to the bed and reached out to take the pulse for Camilla Greiner while carefully examining her body.
Given that Camilla Greiner had been unconscious for so long, even with all kinds of machines and medical staff taking care of her, various parts of her body would inevitably be damaged.
He planned to conduct a comprehensive physical examination for her. While trying to wake Camilla Greiner, he also wanted to cure all her hidden diseases.
Therefore, it took him quite a while to take her pulse this time.
After Lionel Yeager finished taking her pulse.
Julie Stewart quickly asked, "Mullen, how is it, can you treat her?"
