It felt like a cat scratching at his heart.
Cathy smiled smugly, looking confident. "Nick, remember my old friend from college, Nancy Vale? We were pretty close. Last year, I saw on social media that she went to work at Aurelis Holdings Group, and she has a pretty high position. If I contact her, I think we can make this happen!"
Hearing this, Edward said, "Cathy, then I'll leave this to you. You must secure the partnership before they do."
"Don't worry, Dad. I won't let you down."
Cathy felt sure she would crush her uncle's family this time. She thought of Ralph and decided to ask him for help. Her brother wasn't as smart as she was, so he was useless. Ralph always had ideas.
When she called, Ralph didn't answer. A hospital staff member picked up, saying Ralph was hospitalized and asking her to come.
Cathy thought he was sick, so she went to the hospital. When she saw the gaunt face in the bed, she couldn't believe it was Ralph. He lay motionless, only able to move his head. It looked eerie.
"Cathy, you finally came to see me," Ralph said weakly. He looked drained, his eyes sunken.
"Ralph, what happened? You were fine a few days ago. How did you end up like this?" Cathy asked.
