Chapter 745: Chapter 745 Goodbye_1 Chapter 745: Chapter 745 Goodbye_1 Valeria Shimpson couldn’t help but ridicule Greg Jensen every time she saw him.
In her eyes, Greg was still the same down-and-out classmate who had opened a rather famous little restaurant in Jamae City, and nothing more.
What could possibly bring her to such a remote place?
Greg was puzzled and hesitated for a moment, but he did not go forward to greet her.
After all, he was now under the guise of Barry Wolfe’s face, and even if he had greeted her, Valeria wouldn’t have recognized him.
At the moment, Valeria’s face was drawn and tired, her eyebrows were tightly furrowed, showing that she was heavily laden with worries.
She noticed Greg looking at her but didn’t say anything, merely snorted coldly and turned her head away with distaste.
“What’s the matter, Valeria?”
The handsome young man, exchanging a glance with Greg, frowned and was about to scold when he suddenly caught sight of Ashley Dean beside him.
Ashley Dean, as the legitimate eldest daughter of the Dean Family, was a top pick in both looks and figure.
Moreover, with the pinch she was in at that moment, her slightly furrowed brows made her especially pitiable.
The young man’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help feeling moved.
It was only because of Valeria’s presence that he refrained from greeting Ashley.
A look of regret crossed his face, and then he shot Greg a glare and said to Valeria with a smile, “Let’s sit over there, Valeria. Ignore them.”
“Mhm.”
Valeria nodded and went to sit down quietly, silently eating her food.
Seeing this, Greg no longer paid attention and departed after finishing his meal.
He had initially thought Valeria was just traveling to Danu because she was in a bad mood, but to his surprise, he encountered her again after arriving in Yi Qiu County.
Just as Greg and his group entered the best hotel in Yi Qiu County, they saw Valeria and the young man entering as well.
As they walked, the young man said to Valeria with a sly smile, “If your uncle’s illness is cured, you’d better keep your promise.”
Valeria responded with a cold face and impatience, “I won’t go back on my word. As long as my father’s illness can be cured, I am willing to do whatever you ask.”
“Alright, then it’s settled.”
The young man was overjoyed, but as he looked up, he saw Greg sitting on a nearby sofa, thoughtfully watching Valeria.
His face darkened with annoyance, “Hey, you really are like a bad penny, following us all the way here!”
Greg was startled and looked at the young man in confusion.
The young man wrapped his arm around Valeria’s slim waist and scoffed, “Buddy, we’re all men here, don’t pretend with me.
There are plenty of guys chasing after Valeria. I’ve seen too many like you. You just want Valeria’s contact information, right?
I advise you to give up as soon as possible! Have you looked at yourself? Do you think you’re worthy of pursuing Valeria?”
Greg frowned and turned to Valeria, asking, “Are you going to Healington for medicine?”
Valeria’s brows were deeply furrowed, and she remained silent.
“Wow, you even know about Healington? Not bad at all!”
The young man’s demeanor turned cool as he said lightly, “I don’t care who you are, but you better not set your sights on my woman, or I’ll make you regret being born.”
Greg, uninterested in the altercation, said to Valeria, “Healington is a bit dangerous these days. I advise you not to go.”
Valeria was startled and glanced subconsciously at the young man beside her.
The young man scoffed, “What are you, anyway? Whether Healington is dangerous or not, is it up to you to decide?”
Greg replied calmly, “I’ve said all there is to say. Take care of yourself.”
At this moment, Old Yellow and his companions had already completed the check-in procedures. Greg Jensen glanced deeply at Valeria Shimpson and then left with his group.
The young man snorted disdainfully, “Psh, what a joke, trying to act tough in front of the boss?”
Valeria Shimpson stood silent, watching Greg Jensen’s receding figure with a slight frown on her brow.
She suddenly realized that the figure seemed vaguely familiar.
But then, when she recalled his unfamiliar face, she thought she was overthinking it. The person from her memory was likely busy running his restaurant and couldn’t possibly be here.
“Sloane, shall we go?”
The young man came over, intending to take Valeria Shimpson’s arm.
Valeria Shimpson sidestepped with a frown and said coldly, “Cobe Myes, we had an agreement. Until my father recovers, you are not to touch me!”
“Haha, I just couldn’t help myself.”
“I’m going back to my room now.”
Valeria Shimpson huffed and made her way to her room alone.
Cobe Myes watched her back and his expression gradually turned cold, “Stupid bitch, just wait until I get you into bed.”
Meanwhile, after Greg Jensen returned to his room, he sent a message to Valeria Shimpson.
It was roughly about knowing that her father was ill, asking if she needed him to come over and have a look.
Valeria Shimpson’s reply was brief–just two words: No need.
Initially, Greg Jensen didn’t want to interfere any further but, after much hesitation, still decided to call Spencer Burley to inquire about her father’s condition.
As it turned out, Spencer Burley had recently been cultivating at East Peak Manor, and he wasn’t aware of what was happening with Valeria Shimpson’s father either.
Reluctantly, Greg Jensen hung up the phone and waited a while. Eventually, Spencer Burley called back.
After listening to Spencer Burley, Greg Jensen’s brow furrowed.
It turned out Valeria Shimpson’s father didn’t appear to be simply ill, but rather seemed to have been poisoned. Fortunately, the symptoms were not very severe, just unconsciousness, and his vital signs were still relatively stable.
After a moment of silence, Greg Jensen said, “Okay, you call her now and tell her you’ve found a Divine Doctor and ask her to come back immediately.”
“Alright.”
After hanging up, Greg Jensen figured that Valeria Shimpson probably wouldn’t venture to Healington anymore, so he decided not to worry about it.
However, when he got up the next morning and prepared to set off with Ashley Dean and the others, he found that Valeria Shimpson and the young man, along with several bodyguards, were also heading out.
And they were headed in the same direction as Greg Jensen; it was clear they were also going to Healington.
Knowing he couldn’t persuade them, Greg Jensen simply stopped paying attention and drove to a small town. There, they found a local guide and then set off on foot into the vast forest.
Since this area was frequently visited by people seeking medical advice and medicine, there were many guides locally who spent all year roaming the forest collecting herbs and providing for their families.
To them, these perilous forests were nothing less than a treasure trove.
As they moved through the woods, they did so with ease, their demeanor exceptionally relaxed.
The dense foliage obscured the sky; though the sun was shining brightly, the surroundings quickly darkened.
Greg Jensen gazed at the dense forest and couldn’t help but marvel, “No wonder Healington is so mysterious and many people can’t find it–it’s hidden in such a place.”
Their guide, Old Man Lee, grinned widely, showing off his yellow teeth and laughed, “Tell me about it. Without the likes of us to lead the way, ordinary folks would really not find the place.”
“Haha, well then, much appreciated,” Greg Jensen chuckled and continued to follow the guide.
Less than a hundred meters behind them, Cobe Myes looked impatient, addressing their own guide:
“Come on, do you even know the way? How can Healington possibly be in this godforsaken place?”
