Chapter 236: what are our options?
The city of Noveria looked stunning at night. Tall buildings lit up in different colors, and the neon lights gave the city a beautiful, glowing look.
Each color reflected off glass buildings and steel towers, painting the metropolis with a panoramic glow of modern elegance.From a distance, it almost looked magical.
A sleek black car cruised through the city’s bustling streets. Its polished surface mirrored the passing streetlights, creating fleeting shadows on its windows.
Advertisements played on large screens around the city, all showing the same message — the grand relaunch of J&D Globals, and a final reminder for everyone to attend before the event doors closed.
Inside the car, Ethan sat in the front passenger seat, his face serious and focused. He had a laptop open on his lap, typing quickly and checking the last-minute details for the event.
At the back of the car, Davis sat silently. His head rested against the seat, and his eyes were closed.
He looked calm, but his hand was tightly clenched around his phone and the tense lines on his face told a different story. His lips were pressed into a thin line, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed with worry.
His thoughts drifted constantly—away from the event, Now and then, Ethan would speak up to ask something, and Davis would force himself to answer, snapping himself back to the present.
At one point, Davis opened his eyes and quickly dialed a number. The call connected almost immediately.
"Is she awake? Is the doctor still there?" he asked, his voice tight with suppressed emotion.
"Everything is fine, sir. But she hasn’t woken up yet," came Deborah’s calm and clear response.
