After answering the phone, he said a few words with a smile on his lips.
“Okay, I got it, but Andie just got back and needs to rest up.”
“You get the information of the alternative venues ready first, I’ll do the first round of screening. Andie will adjust to the time difference first, then I’ll take her and her uncle and aunt to visit the sites in person.”
After hanging up the phone, Quinn looked at Lucian and Scarlett with a humble and polite attitude.
“Uncle and auntie, my mom and I went to check out the venue first, eliminated the unsuitable ones, and narrowed it down to a few top choices.”
“At that time, it will be up to Uncle and Aunt to make the final decision. After all, Andie’s lifelong event must be approved by the
elders.”
Lucian nodded in satisfaction.
“Just do as you said, thank you Quinn.”
Quinn smirked and then stood up.
“I’ll be off then.”
Andrea stood up too.
“Be safe on your way.

He paused, reached out and gently brushed the stray hair from her forehead, “Call me anytime if you need anything.”
After saying goodbye to Scarlett and Lucian, he quickly left.
Shortly after Quinn left, Scarlett’s phone suddenly rang.
After answering the call, her face turned pale instantly, and her voice was trembling.
“What? Roderick was hospitalized?”
She hung up the phone and grabbed her purse in a panic.
“Roderick was in the hospital, things didn’t look good, let’s hurry over there!”
The hospital corridor was filled with the strong smell of disinfectant. Lucian and Scarlett hurriedly followed the doctor to ask about the situation, leaving Andrea standing at the door of the ward.
“Andie, you go in and keep your brother company.”
She took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and walked in.
In the hospital room, Roderick lay quietly on the bed, his face as pale as a sheet, connected to various monitoring devices.
He slowly opened his eyes when he heard a noise, looked at Andrea, and gave a self–deprecating smile.
“I thought you would never see me again.”
Andrea’s throat tightened, her fingers unconsciously clutching the hem of her clothes, before she finally squeezed out a sentence.

“You are my brother, so of course I will come to see you as your sister.”
Roderick’s eyes dimmed instantly, and the smile at the corner of his mouth froze.
He turned his head and looked at the gloomy sky outside the window.
It took a long time before he finally whispered.
“Brother…yeah, we are siblings.”
She avoided eye contact with him, not daring to look at him.
“Don’t overthink it, just get better soon and don’t worry Lucian.”
The ward was silent, only the monotonous sound of the monitoring equipment beeping, hitting the tense hearts of the two people.
Just then, the door of the ward “bang” open.
Matilda stormed in with her 10–centimeter stiletto heels.
She was soaked in sweat in her Chanel suit, her carefully styled curls a bit messy, her face full of anxiety and panic.
Seeing Roderick weak on the hospital bed, her eyes instantly turned red, and she stumbled to the bedside.
“Roderick!”
Matilda’s voice was trembling, her fingers gently stroking his bandaged forehead.
“How did you become like this? Why did you sneak back to your country without a word? I asked everyone before I found out you were here, do you know how worried I was?”

She was crying, tears falling heavily on the snow–white sheets, leaving dark stains.
Roderick’s pale face looked even worse.
“Don’t touch me.”
