25 SUDDEN TASK

The day has changed leaving the anxiety that has not been completely swallowed by the night. Garendra's family members such as Shine and a man named Mark who had regained consciousness were immediately transferred to the Garendra Healthy Center, a hospital-owned by the Garendra family.

But not for Troy's sister-in-law. Alice, who is still unconscious, is still being treated at the hospital.

So the tight guard of the unusual people on guard unraveled and shared the location of the guard at two points.

However, instead of loosening the guard at the hospital that treated Alice, the guards increased in number with the number of well-built, foreign-looking men after several of Alice's family came there.

In addition, many people in military clothes were also seen there.

"Troy, what happened to Alice and Shine? Where were you all when they had the accident?" asked a young man of high military rank asked Troy frantically.

"I also don't know what they went through to get their car over to the brink. Wait until Mark or Shine is fully awake so they can tell us what happened,"

"For whatever reason, Darren. Don't ask me how messed up I was when I saw their situation at that time,"

Troy replied sadly while bending his tired face.

"Then how is Alice? Is she okay? What about my niece in her womb?" the man named Darren asked again.

"Alice's daughter was born by cesarean section and is currently being treated in a special nursery. To see our beautiful niece! She looks a lot like her mother, and before going in there, you will find a lot of Alice's men there!" Troy replied with a slight smile as he remembered his new niece.

"Then how about Alice? How is she? I haven't seen Sean around here!" Darren asked again.

"Alice's condition is still unknown. My brother is in his room with Mr. Jack and Alice's other brothers. The late Lion's men are checking Alice's condition. Pray that Alice is okay!" Troy explained to him.

"Maybe right now you can't go inside and see Alice because I'm not allowed in either. Only they are allowed to be there," continued Troy, "Rather than that, you'd better go to our family hospital and see how Shine is there. Two hours ago they just got there. Thunder is guarding him. You go there and I will tell everyone when you come there!"

Darren looked worried but after hearing Troy's words about closing visits to Alice from Alice's other family, Darren withdrew.

Darren is the son of the late Mrs. Camellia's older sister, Alice's mother. Darren is also Shine's uncle because Shine's mother, Darren, and Alice have the same father.

Given Alice's unusual status, Darren chose to withdraw from the rest of Alice's family.

"Okay, I'll just go to Shine's place. I'll also tell uncle Dharma and Aunt Camellia that maybe Alice won't be able to be visited for a while. I'll just direct them to Shine's place!" Darren said to Troy after understanding the current situation.

"Yes, be careful on the road. Give my regards to Shine, after his daddy calms down and doesn't do anything crazy anymore, I'll go see him. You know what my brother looks like when it comes to Alice, right?"

"Moreover, Alice's condition is like this," Troy replied to Darren while taking Darren to the front of the hospital lobby.

A group of people dressed in military uniforms left the hospital where Alice was being treated.

'Hmm, you see, Alice? With your condition like this, the circumstances and situations around us have become tense. As far as my eyes could see, there were no ordinary people around here. Everything is full of mafia!' Troy muttered in his heart.

Troy shook his head while exhaling roughly as he thought about the current situation.

Amid his anxiety, Troy's cell phone rang.

The call informed him that Star Fashion's upcoming boys' clothing project had entered a grace period, and investors were tired of waiting too long for the project that was being delayed. Investors urged Star Fashion to immediately release their new brand.

Troy's head hurts. He couldn't think about it properly. But Troy couldn't possibly leave his unstable older brother to go take care of company matters, right? So Troy quickly remembered Cheery.

Troy dialed Cheery's number and urged Cheery to immediately arrange the shooting schedule for the little models.

"Then what about Sunny, Boss? Can I come over there to talk to Sunny? Are you sure Sunny wants to shoot when his mother is like this?" Cheery asked the right thing.

The impromptu task that Troy asked for is not difficult if Sunny wants to shoot. Cheery is well aware that even Sunny and even Troy are currently having problems with their thoughts and sadness with the current condition of their family.

"Can't you find another model? Just find a replacement for Sunny or try consulting with Star Fashion management to use the other model first. I'm sure Sunny won't be thinking about that right now. You can't imagine the current situation, Cheery, and I hope you will. Don't ask anything because I don't know how to answer your question either. I'll hang up first!"

Troy said long before hanging up their call and leaving Cheery confused on the other end of the line.

"Oh my God... How can I solve this problem? Why does the boss give such an impromptu task like this in my busy schedule?"

"I had to go to Keanu's school and now have to face the management of Star Fashion, not to mention Sunny who might refuse if the situation was like this. How do I finish all this, God?" Cheery muttered to herself.

Her worried thoughts made Cheery's gaze shift to all corners of the house. And one interesting point she got when she saw Keanu who was wearing her school shoes accompanied by a foreign old man who ended up staying at her house last night.

The debate between mother and daughter last night ended in Cheery's defeat. The mother's tears and the threat that Mrs. Lisa would leave the house to take her friend to find a temporary place to live managed to make Cheery relent.

Alright, that one small old man won't be depleting their stock of food, at least until Cheery receives her first salary from Garendra Corporations, and finally, the old man was allowed to stay a few days at Cheery's house.

Now, when looking at Keanu's smile with the man, the tiredness of Cheery's mind was momentarily ignored.

It appears in Cheery's eyes the love of a grandfather for his grandson.

Cheery's heart ached when it briefly crossed his mind, could that old man be Cheery's father?

'Could this man be my papa? Mama has never had a relationship with any man other than the man from Dewari's grandfather's family, and my mother never told me that she had an old friend who was from Italy.'

'But last night, mama insisted no more answering when I asked who the man was, and if he's my papa, why can't it be justified? After all, we were the only ones at that time if there was a blood relationship?'

Instead of reducing the burden on her mind, Cheery added a new problem to solve her mind.

As a result, Cheery herself is confused and has a headache when all problems demand to be solved. Not to mention the problem of an impromptu task from Troy which seems to be very difficult for her to do.

'Never mind, my mind! Please don't make me think about so many problems at once. I'm neither a genius nor a demigod who can solve problems in a short amount of time!'

'And you, Uncle. I will talk to you after one by one my problems are finished. I hope you haven't gone far before I ask!' Cheery thought as she stepped closer to Keanu in front of the door.

"Keanu, are you ready to go, honey? Hurry up, I still have a lot of work to do today and maybe I'll ask the headmaster's permission to take you with me. You're going to the office with me!" Cheery said to her son as she walked to her boss's car.

"For what, Mama?" Keanu asked curtly.

"To discuss the problem of shooting a boy's clothing model that we discussed before!" replied the mother.

"Didn't we agree on this? You promised me, didn't you? Do you still remember what you promised me when I became a model for that ad?" Keanu turns things around by reminding Cheery again of their previous agreement.

'Gosh, I almost forgot! How about this, my God? Why are you giving me consecutive troubles like this?' Cheery felt like crying when she remembered her promise to Keanu.

She promised to dress as a woman and try to get to know a good man to be a father to Keanu and in fact, Cheery didn't think about it at all. Cheery seemed to ignore the fact that he had to fulfill his promise about approaching men out there.

Cheery smiled awkwardly at Keanu.
