Chapter 644 The Excuse of A Broken Heart is Always Useful

The next day, Gavin contacted Henry and told him what had happened last night.

"Your suspicion may be correct-your condition has aggravated. No matter whether you have time or not today, you must come to me for an examination," After a pause, Henry said in a particularly serious tone.

"..."

Gavin's heart kept sinking.

He knew that his condition would worsen, but he didn't expect it to happen at this time.

He lowered his eyes to hide the heavy disappointment in his heart and replied, "Okay."

"Also," said Henry in a friendly tone. "Don't drive anymore. It's too dangerous."

"I know. Thank you."

Gavin put down his phone and sat on the sofa for a long time before getting up. After washing up and changing his clothes, he went downstairs worriedly.

Even the security guard could see that Gavin's mental state was not normal, so he called him, "Mr. Gavin, are you not feeling well?"

Gavin smiled. Under the smile, there was a lot of hidden bitterness.

"No." He pinched the bridge of his nose as if nothing had happened. "It's just that I didn't have a good rest last night."

"None of the young people who live in this building can have a good rest," the security guard sighed and said, "Now thinking about it, it's not a bad thing for us to live normally. Although we lack money from time to time, at least we're not as tired as you guys."

"Yes," Gavin echoed with a smile, "Having a plain, healthy life is better than anything else."

He waved his hand and left the apartment without looking back.

After thinking for a while, Gavin decided not to drive. He called the company's driver and asked him to pick him up.

Everyone in Lambert Group knew that Gavin loved cars as much as Brian.

The difference was that Gavin also liked to drive by himself.

He had said that the feeling of controlling the steering wheel was like controlling his own life.

Other than liking to drive, it was better to say that he liked the feeling of being in control.

Therefore, when the driver took the car key from Gavin's hand, he couldn't hide his surprise and couldn't help telling Winston about this strange experience.

Winston was driving Brian to the company and was also very surprised to hear the news, so he told it to Brian.

Brian stopped flipping through the documents. He vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he had no clue. He couldn't figure out the reason.

When he arrived at the company, Brian did not go straight to his office as before. Instead, he knocked on the door of Gavin's office.

Gavin was reading a document. When he heard the knock, he looked up subconsciously and saw it was Brian. He was surprised. "Should I stand up and welcome the big boss to my office?"

Brian went straight to the point. "This morning, did you ask the driver to pick you up?"

Gavin sighed. "Are all the drivers in our company so gossipy?"

Brian stared at Gavin, and there was a sharp cold light in his deep eyes. "Don't change the topic."

Gavin made a surrender gesture and said, "Joanne's aunt... is going to reveal my family background."

Brian frowned. "Why at this time?"

"Yesterday, Wendy suddenly asked her why she didn't go back to Australia. She couldn't find an excuse." Gavin said helplessly, "According to Wendy's character, she would be more comfortable to accept it if we tell her voluntarily. If she finds out the truth someday, the reaction may be unimaginable, so..."

Gavin didn't finish his words, but Brian already knew his implication.

Once the fact that Dolly and Gavin were mother and son was exposed, the fact that he and Wendy were siblings would also be exposed.

By then, Gavin and Wendy... would never have a chance to be together again.

From that moment on, they would have to call each other brother and sister. Gavin could only look at Wendy from a distance.

Brian was not good at comforting people. At this time, he didn't know what to say to Gavin at all.

Gavin looked as if he didn't need any comfort. He said, "Ask HR to arrange a driver for me. I'm afraid I'll be distracted while driving in the future."

Brian said, "I'll arrange someone for you today."

Gavin had a lot of things to deal with recently. Even if it didn't happen, Brian had planned to arrange a driver for him.

Having a driver would save his energy expended for driving, and thus he could have a better rest.

Therefore, the fact that Gavin wanted a private driver did not arouse any suspicion of Brian.

After Brian left the office, Gavin let out a long sigh of relief.

"It's... so fucking dangerous."

However, the excuse of a broken heart from love was really a useful one when facing Brian.

Perhaps it was because Brian had also been trapped in love, so he knew the feeling of depression.

However, Brian was lucky. In the end, he fell in love with Joanne and they gave birth to two lovely little angels.

As for him... well, he should stay alive first!

In the afternoon, Gavin finished all his work early. When he walked out of the company gate, the driver had already been waiting for him downstairs with the car door opened.

He enjoyed the feeling of being served. He got into the car and said, "Go to the private hospital. There's something there that needs to be dealt with."

"Okay!"

The high-performance car shuttled through the traffic at night and headed for the private hospital.

The reason why Gavin didn't avoid mentioning going to the hospital was that he was in charge of the management of the hospital. If he went there naturally, everyone would assume that he was going to the hospital to deal with official business.

No one would think that he was going to see a doctor.

On the contrary, if he sneaked around and asked the driver to park near the hospital and then walked to the hospital, or simply left the driver and took a taxi, it would arouse Brian's suspicion.

From this, it could be seen how important it was to understand your boss's habits!

However, Gavin had never expected that he would see Dolly in the hospital again.

Needless to say, Henry must have informed Dolly.

He looked at Henry coldly. Henry shrank his neck and uttered pure American English. "I just think that at times like this, you need a family member to accompany you."

"Gavin," Dolly said in time, "After the examination, I have something to tell you."

Gavin didn't say anything else and went through the examination, as Henry requested.

He had gone through the inspection countless times. He was familiar with the whole process, and even knew clearly what kind of equipment the doctor would use next.

After the examination, Henry asked them to go back and wait for the results. He also specifically told them that the result would come out more slowly this time.

Gavin was used to waiting like this, so he left the hospital with Dolly. After getting in the car, he asked, "What are you going to tell me?"

"I've thought about it for a long time. I think... I think I should tell it to you." Dolly looked very serious. "Wendy not only found that Henry was in this hospital but also knew that Henry had been studying a rare genetic disease."

That was to say, if Gavin wanted to hide the truth about his illness, then Wendy absolutely could not know the real reason why Winfred had passed away.

Otherwise, once she knew that Gavin was her elder brother and from what she had known about Henry, as well as the abnormalities of Gavin, Wendy would soon find out the truth that Gavin was sick.

Dolly smiled bitterly and continued, "From my point of view, I hope you don't hide anything about your illness. I hope you don't have to work anymore and stay in the hospital for treatment. But... I respect your choice."

Gavin seriously thought for a moment and said, "It's not that I can't be hospitalized, just not for now."

Dolly asked, "How long do we have to wait?"

"I don't know." Gavin shook his head. "There is something complicated and dangerous, but we have to handle it well. Otherwise, not only me but all of us will be in trouble. Maybe it will take a few months or even a few years."

After Winfred passed away, Dolly had been struggling in the business field. She definitely knew that his words meant that everything had to depend on how it developed.

Once Brian couldn't control the development of the incident, the result would be worse than everyone's imagination.

Dolly was worried and asked, "Gavin, what are you hiding from me?"

"You don't have to know or intervene in this matter," Gavin said, "it will only bring you trouble and danger."

Dolly nodded and said, "Tell me if there's anything I can help you with."

Gavin nodded and changed the subject. "How's the investigation that you have been working on coming along?"

Dolly also came back to her senses and said, "I came to tell you this. Chris and Joanne don't know the reason for your father's death.

"At that time, Chris was still very young, Joanne was not born either, and my life was not allowed to be mentioned in the Scott Family, so no one dared to speak of it at all. Chris may have had an unpleasant impression of the past, but he can't possibly know the details."

"What about your friends from the past?" Gavin asked.

"Most of the friends in the past were in the United States. The only one who knew the whole truth was Connell's father, Qin Lin. I'll tell Qin Lin and ask him to keep it a secret."

"Then... choose a time to tell them the truth," Gavin said.

"...At the full-moon party of Aiden and Romy." Dolly said, "You're all busy recently. That should be the time when everyone will be present. In that atmosphere, it will also be easier for them to accept it."

Gavin nodded. "It's up to you. I don't care."

He rolled down the window and asked the driver to get in the car. He told the driver the hotel address and sent Dolly back to the hotel. Then he asked the driver to take him home.

As soon as he reached the apartment, the security guard came over with a box in his arms. "Mr. Gavin the secretary, sent it to you. She said... it was the doghouse?"

"Yes, thank you." Gavin took it and went upstairs with the case in his arms.

As soon as he opened the door, Erha rushed up and hugged his legs.

He squatted down, picked it up, and touched its head. He pointed to the box next to it and said, "See? This is your home. I'll install it for you right away."

Erha laughed happily. Gavin put it down, opened the box, and quickly assembled the doghouse. He pointed at it, and ErhOriont in naturally and lay down contentedly, looking very comfortable.

Gavin was satisfied, but suddenly felt upset at the same time.

He once thought that there would be one more person in the house, and that person would listen to him like Erha, but...

Gavin didn't let himself think about it anymore. He touched Erha's head and said, "Well, you can stay here with me from now on."

"Ow!" Erha cried out. It seemed to be saying that it was a deal.
