Chapter 509 Randy is Coming
“From Robert having his incident to the point where you had me take care of the children, you never
told me what was up with Robert’s body. We’re mother and daughter, Georgia, and I’ve been through a
lot in this life. No need to hide it from me. You might not be as stressed having your mother bear it with
you. Anything that pains you, just tell me. I don’t want you to keep frowning unhappily like that.”
When they spoke, the children had left, and Robert wasn’t in the shot as well. Georgia was the only
person there, and her eyes reddened.
“I can take it, Mom, but there’s a lot of unknown factors I’m afraid of. Now that he’s woken up, I’m
happy enough having him stay healthily by my side and hold me.
“As for Robert’s body, it goes back to a year ago, when you saved me on that island. Then too much
has happened. He went missing for a year and actually got taken by Jayson and Sierra’s people. Then
they shut him in a lab to do all sorts of live experiments, damaging his body.
“Do you still remember how, a year ago, he couldn’t even stand? All sorts of nerve stimulating drugs
and other experiments allowed him to stand again, which caused an abnormal condition to develop in
his body as well.
“I really should thank fate, because a lot of people didn’t make it through the lab and died after a while,
some in agony. But Robert had a strong body, and now it’s generating substances that can protect it…”
Georgia explained Robert’s situation in brief. Her mother didn’t have professional knowledge, and
Georgia could only explain from other angles.
After about a quarter of an hour, Casey mostly understood, and she looked worriedly at her daughter.
“You were really scared with his fever, weren’t you?”
Georgia nodded quietly.
“I was terrified. I couldn’t save him and nobody else had had a condition like this. Thankfully, the Riley
fellow contacted me, and his lover had a similar case. But I really not solve this crisis this time…
“I and the friends I know don’t have cases to trace, and whatever methods I come up with could harm
his body. I was really afraid then.”
“Have you thought about what to do in the future?”
Casey was just an ordinary person. She wanted to help but knew she had no way of doing so.
She just wanted her daughter and son-in-law to live happily ever after.
She really hoped that there was a solution to Robert’s situation.
“I’ll do my best. In the beginning, I was in despair when I heard about this. But thinking of it now, I’ve
already faced down all sorts of danger with him, but we both made it through. So long as I don’t give up
hope, we’ll always find a solution.
“I told you about Riley. His lover was in a coma for five years, but he lasted for five years without even
giving up now. And Robert’s condition isn’t even as serious as that person’s. All the more reason for me
to stick it through, and even thank the stars for it. If Robert had been unconscious for that long, that’s
the real cruelty to me. Right now, what I have to do is to work together with other teams to find a way to
cure him.”
“Then you have to look after yourself. Your eyes look all tired, and it’s past ten. Hurry up and rest. Don’t
pull all-nighters on research. If you collapse, Robert won’t be able to take it either.”
Georgia nodded, and hung up with her mother.
She stood there in silence for a while when a pair of hands hugged her from behind.
Georgia leant back into the man’s embrace comfortably.
“Why did you come over? Aren’t you lying in bed?”
“It’s hard to sleep alone. I want my wife to hold in bed.”
Georgia chuckled, then turned around and hugged her husband.
“It’s such a cold winter, but you’re not warming the bed for me and actually waking up now, eh! You
want me to sleep in icy sheets, is that it? No concern for you wife now?”
“It’s too cold for me to sleep alone. We could warm each other in there. Come sleep with me already. I
can’t fall asleep without you.”
Georgia giggled, taking Robert’s hand and tiptoeing up to kiss him.
“Come on. Let’s go to bed. I have to wake up early in the morning to work in the lab. I’ll only be
energetic enough with good rest. I can’t waste any time now.”
At that, Robert smiled, relieved.
While lying down with her, Robert was all happy when he heard a dangerous question.
“Leda asked me a question today. Know what it was?”
“I’ve lost my memory, Mrs. Simpson. I don’t know her that well. Really.”
Georgia continued.
“She asked me if it was happy being with you, and I could only reply that it was happy for me. Then
Leda said that of course that was the case, because you were such a responsible person even in high
school and so good to her. So she guessed that you’re good to me too. I didn’t know if I was supposed
to be happy or not at that…”
Robert was a bit annoyed with his past self, giving his current self so much trouble.
“Of course you should be happy. We actually are happy. As for someone else, if you don’t want to hear
it, just treat it like you never heard anything.”
Looking at how nervous Robert was being, Georgia chuckled.
“I’m not that mad. So long as you keep healthy, who cares how many exes you had. I just want you to
be safe.”
Robert felt his heart go soft and he kissed his wife’s forehead.
“Don’t worry and don’t be sad. Fate just feels like I need more training. Only with enough of a test can
we truly be happy, and we will be happy.”
“You’re awfully optimistic, but I feel the same way. Only by going through the deepest pain could you
have the most precious happiness in the world. We’ve already been through a lot. We’ll just trust each
other and walk this road to the end. It’s still a long life ahead of us…”
The two snuggled into each other and fell asleep, waking up early the next morning.
Georgia had breakfast with Robert, checked to see if there were any abnormalities with his body, then
went to the lab and started experimenting with Antonio, Leda and Aston. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Riley stopped by the lab too, not for research, but to see how far they’d come.
After that, Riley left, seemingly to look for Robert, and Georgia didn’t get involved.
She worked all across the noon in the lab.
When she felt hungry, Ivan came over to urge them to eat, and everyone went out to the dinner table.
Of course, Georgia had gone over to Robert first.
This time, she saw someone she hadn’t expected. Randy had come over.
Georgia knew that Randy was now the acting head of the Simpsons, representing Robert in dealing
with all sorts of business at the company.
As the person behind the scenes, Georgia had expressly forbidden Robert and told him to rest up, so
Robert didn’t handle the minute details.
Was Randy coming over because something had happened?
“Come sit. Randy’s just been here for half on hour, and the time’s just right for us to have lunch.”
Robert said that, and Randy smiled at Georgia.
“Come on, sit. We’re waiting on you and I’m starving.”
Georgia sat. Robert didn’t need to watch what he ate anymore, and there was a rich lunch placed
across the table.
She took up her utensils, while Randy had already started scarfing down food.
Seemed like he really was hungry. Georgia stayed with Robert as they ate. She didn’t ask what was on
her mind and simply lunched in patience.
She had a normal portion and Robert was similar, but the lunch was swept clean almost entirely by
Randy.
The man had a huge appetite. After lunch, Georgia cleaned up, then turned to Robert and Randy,
curious.
“Weren’t you handling the company affairs in the country? Did you come over because something
happened?”
“That’s right, Georgia. Nothing serious, though. Something fun, actually. It’s a bit troublesome for me in
the country, so I’m just going to lie low here for a few days.”
Georgia was confused,
“Why lay low here? What happened back there?”
