Chapter 587: Too Late To Regret

Nikki didnt answer the phone for a long time, but Karen refused to give up and called Gretchen.

As soon as the call connected, a voice said urgently before Karen could speak, “Karen! I was going to call you.

Something terrible has happened at home! Nikki was taken away last night! We havent found her yet! Karen, you must help us! Nikki is your niece!”

Karen turned pale immediately.

Nikki had really been abducted!

This meant that the phone call Lucas received was indeed from Damon, the head of the Parkers!

On the other end, Gretchen continued, “Karen, are you going to help me or not Say something!”

Karens heart was in turmoil at this moment, and she stammered, “I… Im just a… a weak woman who has no power or influence.

I really want to help you, but I cant!”

“No, Karen, you can! Isnt your son-in-law very powerful He knows a lot of people, including the head of the Coles from San Francisco! If you ask him to help contact those bigwigs and ask them to look for Nikki, well definitely find her soon!”

Gretchen immediately promised, “Youre my biological sister, so you must help me! If Nikki is found, I will definitely go to Orange County to thank you properly!”

When Karen heard Gretchen say she wanted her to go to Lucas to ask for help, her face turned even paler.

She really wanted to tell Gretchen that the daughter she was trying to find was taken away by Lucass subordinate, and it would be just a dream to find him to get his help.

But out of fear for Lucas, Karen didnt dare to say this to Gretchen at all.

She could only continue to make perfunctory excuses.

“Gretchen, its not that I dont want to help you.

But… you also know that my relationship with Lucas is terribly strained, and we usually dont speak to each other at all.

Even if I go beg him, do you think he will help me”

“Youre his mother-in-law.

Do you think he will really dare to disobey you if you ask him to do it I bet you just dont want to help me, right” Gretchen said furiously.

Karen was extremely irritated too.

If Lucas didnt dare to disobey her, she would have become the queen calling the shots in the family by now.

Why would she still be staying here with trepidation and fear, afraid that he wouldnt forgive her after learning the truth

She thought about it and asked, “Gretchen, arent the Herons very powerful too The Heron Corp.

has a lot of connections in LA too.

Didnt you guys activate your connections”

At the mention of this, Gretchen began to get even more worked up.

She cried and exclaimed, “The Herons… the Herons have fallen! Were going to go bankrupt today, and my father-in-law has collapsed and been sent to the hospital.

Who would be willing to help us when were down”

“How… how did this… happen” Karen murmured.

But she recalled Lucass conversation on the phone with Damon just now.

“The Herons have suffered a tremendous blow.

Theyll definitely go bankrupt today.

Robert Heron is so furious that hes already been hospitalized, and the rest of the Herons are all just like headless flies overwhelmed with panic…”

She felt all her strength drain away, and even the phone she was holding in her hand was as heavy as a thousand pounds, so much so that she could barely lift it.

It was all done by Lucas…

The Herons, the family whom her sister had married into and left her green with envy, was destroyed overnight…

What kind of terrifying strength is this!

The more Karen thought about it, the more petrified she was.

She wished she could hang up right now and escape from the hospital, the farther, the better.

On the other end, Gretchen continued crying, “Karen, theres no one else I can go to for help now.

You must help me! Nikki is my only daughter! Please help me beg Lucas.

As long as he agrees to help, he will be able to get Nikki back soon! When the time comes, your family will be our great benefactors!”

Karen was obviously not going to be convinced.

She could barely protect herself now, so how could she possibly help Gretchen

“Hello Hello Gretchen, can you still hear me Why is the signal so bad Hello I cant hear anything.

Whats going on” Karen deliberately pretended to act a bit before hanging up.

In case Gretchen called again, she decided to turn off her phone.

After hanging up, Karen stood alone on the lawn as numerous thoughts ran through his mind.

At this moment, she really regretted it.

If she hadnt hired someone to hit William with a car, she wouldnt be in this situation now.

If she hadnt kicked up a fuss with Lucas and her daughters at the villa, she wouldnt have been dragged outside by William.

In fact, if she could have been nicer to Lucas before, she would still be his mother-in-law now and live a luxurious villa gloriously.

Why did I become like this

Karen thought about all the things that had happened in the past six months and finally came to the conclusion that it was all Lucass fault!

Yes, its all your fault! If you hadnt deliberately pretended to be poor and incompetent in front of me in the first place, how could I have treated you that way

Youre obviously really wealthy and powerful, but you refused to say anything.

If you had said something, I definitely wouldnt have been so harsh and mean toward you.

I wouldnt have looked down on you, and things wouldnt have gotten to the point they are today!

So all of this is your fault! Lucas Gray!!!

Karen gritted her teeth, her expression distorting with resentment.

If she got the opportunity, she would definitely make Lucas die a horrible death!

——

In a hospital in San Francisco…

In a superior-class ward on the top floor of the inpatient wing, Marc was lying in bed with a dull gaze, not saying a word.

The crushed parts of his calves had been gradually showing signs of deterioration.

Ever since Moses confidently went to the airport two days ago to invite Maddy but ended up failing, Marc had been lying motionless in bed, not even wanting a bite of food.

He seemed to have lost his drive for life.

But if someone came close to him and wanted to talk, he would immediately turn into a depressive maniac and roar curses like a madman.

Therefore, in the past few days, the doctors and nurses didnt dare to approach him unless it was necessary for medicine or injections.

“Marc, dont be like this.

Youd better eat something.

You havent eaten for two days.

How can your body stand it

“Ill definitely find a better doctor to treat you.

Im sure I can cure your legs! But if you dont eat or drink like this, itll cause too much damage to your body.

Even if we find a good doctor, itll be pointless because your body cant take it.

Dont you agree

“Come, Ill help you up.

Have some chicken soup.

This was your favorite when you were a child.”

Moses carried a bowl of chicken soup over, placed it on his bed, and tried to help him up.

“Get lost! Just get lost! I dont need you to care about me!” Marc flew into a rage and slapped Mosess hand away.
