Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 852

Hearing the raw panic in Allen's voice, the color finally drained from the faces of the younger generation.

"Dad, what... what do we do then?"

"Yeah, Uncle Allen, what's our plan?" another chimed in. "Wasn't tonight supposed to be our chance to turn things around? But the banquet is ruined, Grandpa collapsed... are we totally dead?"

Allen rubbed his throbbing temples, exhausted and utterly defeated. He didn't want to hear another word of their useless panicking. "Enough. All of you, go back to your rooms. I'm going to see your grandfather and wait for him to wake up so he can take charge. Right now, he's the only one who might have a solution!"

Grabbing an umbrella, Allen stepped out into the pouring rain without looking back, leaving the younger relatives staring at each other in terrified silence.

Olive woke up shortly after. Seeing only Allen standing by his bedside, a flicker of deep disappointment crossed his pale, ashen face.

"What time is it? Did I pass out? Where is everyone else?" Olive croaked.

Remembering how Kyle had taken Sophie away, Allen nodded vigorously in agreement. "I think you're right. That person must have given Kyle specific instructions, which is why he intervened instead of just watching from the sidelines."

Olive breathed a sigh of relief. "Good. We've been working for 'him' for over twenty years. Even if we're just hitmen to him, there must be some lingering rapport, right?"

Hearing this, Allen finally felt a small sliver of reassurance. But then, a far more pressing crisis rushed to the forefront of his mind. "Dad, what do we do now? Elena did manage to do one good thing. She kept everyone here... especially Conrad and Wiona. If those two use this opportunity to dig into what Paige and I did to Luna all those years ago... then we really are finished."
