Sean did what Troy wanted to do the most. "I'm at fault too. I haven't done my part in the past few years. I even dragged you guys down." "Enough!"

Olivia slammed her palm on the table, attracting their attention.

"This isn't the time to be owning up to your mistakes. The more you do this, the happier Brandon will be. Mr. Fordham Senior's plane has exploded, and we can't be sure if he's really dead for now. Don't jump to conclusions."

Olivia held her head high. She never thought that a day would come when she would play such a crucial role in the Fordham family.

"Of course, you have to be prepared for the worst. If Mr. Fordham Senior has truly passed away, as his sons, you should keep the family safe. Don't hurt your family and do what your enemies would love to

see.

"Our utmost priority is to locate Madam Fordham as soon as possible. Her eyes have to be treated urgently. If not, even if she's found later on, her eyes won't be able to recover anymore.

"Next, Mr. Fordham Senior has abandoned his business overseas to come back. Someone has to take over his work. A country can't survive a day without its ruler, after all. If you don't do something about it, the Fordhams will be ruined for real!

"Also, Mr. Troy, you still have to rest and recuperate. Your most important job is to get well soon."

Olivia soon stabilized the situation. She hadn't been with them for long, and she was even younger than some of them, but her words were very convincing.

"Yes, we shouldn't lose our cool. We're so glad you're here, Dr. Fordham."

Olivia helped Avery to his seat. In reality, she was the most worried about Avery.

Even though he was the second person to be successfully herb-imbued after her, his kidney disease wasn't completely healed. He just had a slightly higher chance of survival compared to before.

He had to shoulder all the burdens and sorrows alone. Olivia feared that he wouldn't be able to make it.

"Just rest for now, Mr. Avery. I'll prescribe some calming herbs for you. You're the pillar of the Fordhams now, so please don't collapse." Olivia wrote down a prescription and handed it to Vance so that he could get the herbs to make some herbal soup for Avery.

"Yes, Avery. The Fordhams can't do without you." Jacqueline came downstairs. Her eyes were red, and she looked like she had cried a lot.

"You have to pull yourself together."

Avery drank some tea, calming down. "I'm glad that you're fine, Jacqueline."

"Avery, the Fordhams are in dire straits now, and you're all injured. Now, it's only me left. What can I do for you and the family?" Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Holding her hand tightly, Avery comforted her in a gentle voice, "Now, you're the only one in our family who's unharmed. You have to protect yourself well."

"Yes, I will. Still, I'm very anxious. We still don't know if Dad's okay."

"Don't worry, Dad will be alright. I've already asked my men to look into it. We'll receive the news soon."

Even though the Fordhams were comforting each other, they felt like a heavy boulder was weighing on their hearts. They could barely breathe.

Bryce walked into the room with heavy steps.

"How is it?"

Bryce shook his head. "We've received verification that Mr. Fordham Senior did board that plane, and the plane crash is real. So..."

Avery fell on the couch, mumbling, "How can this be?"

"Avery, that means Dad is gone."

Jacqueline threw herself into Avery's arms, sobbing sorrowfully, "Avery, what should we do?"

While she spoke, Morgan came in with a man.

"Mr. Alexander is here."

Olivia looked at the visitor. It was an unfamiliar face. The man had slightly feminine features, and his eyes were long and narrow.

"Avery, I heard that something happened to Mr. Fordham Senior, so I came over. How is he now?"

When Jacqueline saw him, she got up and threw herself into his embrace. "My dad is dead."
