Chapter 525

The doctor removed his mask.

Jane Evans immediately rushed over.

The others also gathered around.

Everyone was waiting for a result.

The doctor spoke slowly.

"The patient is temporarily out of critical danger."

Jane's legs went weak.

Mrs. Evans hurriedly supported her.

The doctor continued.

"But whether he wakes up depends on the next few days."

Tears welled up in Jane's eyes.

It wasn't sorrow.

It was relief.

At least her brother was still alive.

The hospital bed was wheeled out.

Justin Evans lay with his eyes closed, his face pale.

The group followed into the ICU.

They waited outside the door for a moment.

Mrs. Evans grasped Jane's hand.

"Belle, don't be afraid."

Jane nodded.

She wanted to speak.

But no sound came out.

Wait.

Had she just...

Jane froze.

Mrs. Evans also froze.

Everyone looked at Jane.

Jane opened her mouth.

Her voice was slightly hoarse.

"Why... are you all looking at me?"

She startled herself.

Mrs. Evans hugged her in delight.

"Jane! You can speak!"

Mr. Evans also said excitedly.

"You've been talking since just now!"

Her two brothers gathered around.

"Jane, your voice is better?"

"When did you start talking?"

Jane shook her head in confusion.

She didn't know either.

A voice came from the side.

"Jane wasn't incapable of speech."

John Evans walked over.

He looked at the Evans family.

"She lost her voice after a fever and a scare when she was little. I took her to many doctors. Her vocal cords were always fine."

Mrs. Evans suddenly understood.

"So that's it... That's wonderful!"

Jane lowered her head.

Feeling a bit embarrassed.

...

Evelyn Ross and Alexander Vance left the hospital.

The two walked along the road.

Alexander spoke.

"The Evans family situation should be settled now."

Evelyn nodded.

Jane had returned to her family.

Her emotional knot was untied.

The Evans family would be her support in the future.

But her brow was still furrowed.

"Who will the Fox's next target be?"

Alexander pondered for a moment.

"The Roland family and the Cortez Sect are safe for now. The Sherwood and Valentine families need to be vigilant."

Evelyn clenched her hand.

"We're too passive."

The Fox hid in the shadows.

Never showing itself.

Like a venomous snake.

Alexander said.

"I've already had Thomas Watson investigate. The information from the chat with Mrs. White might yield a clue."

Evelyn was about to speak.

Her phone rang.

It was Ethan Valentine.

"Little sister, First Senior Sister, do you have time to come home? There's something at home."

Evelyn's heart tightened.

"Okay, I'll come right away."

She hung up the phone.

She looked at Alexander.

"To the Valentine house."

Alexander turned the car around.

"Did the Fox make a move?"

"Possibly."

The car soon arrived at the Valentine residence.

Evelyn quickly walked into the living room.

The atmosphere inside seemed normal.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Ethan Valentine came to meet her.

"Little sister, you're here."

Evelyn asked.

"Third Brother, what's the matter?"

Ethan pouted.

"Preston Valentine said he had an announcement, called us all here, but he hasn't arrived yet himself."

He then looked Evelyn over.

"Where have you been these past few days? Haven't seen you at all."

Evelyn lowered her eyes.

"Handling some private matters."

She looked around.

"Where's my dad?"

Ethan pointed upstairs.

"Big Brother went chasing after his wife. Company matters are dumped on Third Uncle again."

Evelyn pressed her lips together.

She and Alexander sat down.

Not long after.

Preston Valentine returned.

Susan Langley was holding his arm.

The two looked very intimate.

Evelyn saw Susan.

Her eyes darkened.

Ethan said impatiently.

"Fifth Brother, what is this about?"

Preston smiled.

He held Susan's hand.

"I called everyone here today to announce something."

He paused.

His voice was loud.

"Susan and I are getting married!"

The living room fell silent instantly.

Ethan's eyes widened.

"So fast?"

He looked at Susan's stomach.

"It couldn't be..."

Preston cut him off.

"Don't guess wildly. Susan and I have known each other for two years. It's time to get married."

He looked at his parents.

"Mom, Dad, do you agree?"

Mr. and Mrs. Valentine exchanged a glance.

They didn't speak.

Preston said.

"Third Uncle said the Valentine family doesn't do arranged marriages. You wouldn't look down on Susan's family background, would you?"

Mr. Valentine frowned.

"Nonsense. The Langley family is a respectable family."

Preston smiled.

"So you agree?"

Mr. Valentine sighed.

"You're grown up. Decide for yourself."

Preston happily looked at Susan.

The two smiled at each other.

Preston then looked at the others.

"Does anyone have any objections?"

The brothers offered their congratulations one after another.

Evelyn sat there.

Expressionless.

She knew Susan had problems.

But what could she say?

If she spoke, would Preston believe her?

She didn't want to be the villain.

But someone wouldn't let her off.

Susan looked at Evelyn.

Her voice was soft.

"Miss Evelyn, you will bless us, right?"

Evelyn looked up.

Preston also looked over.

"Little sister, you're happy for me too, aren't you?"

Evelyn remained silent.

She looked at Susan.

Susan's eyes held a challenge.

Evelyn spoke slowly.

"Fifth Brother, do you really know her?"
