Chapter 881
“No, his stay in Eleymond was temporary.
He has no ties with the Anderson family and isn’t married.
Dr.
Chadwick, you’re mistaken.
”
Aldus swiftly moved on without giving Mitchel a chance to respond.
“Dr.
Chadwick, our debt to you is immeasurable.
I did vow that whoever saved him would receive a 10% share in the Fredrick family.
I am a man of my word.
”
But Mitchel declined with a dismissive wave of his hand, saying, “There’s no need.
I was already committed to this surgery.
You were generous to my family in times of crisis.
Consider this my repayment.
”
Hearing this, Aldus did not press further, but made another request.
“I implore you, Dr.
Chadwick, to keep what you have seen and done here confidential.
No word of this to anyone.
”
His sigh echoed in the room as he added, “I hope he can make a fresh start, free from the shackles of his past.
”
He paused briefly before turning to Mitchel.
“Once this issue is resolved, there will be no outstanding debts between the Chadwick and Fredrick families.
We could continue our cooperation, forming a formidable alliance.
”
Mitchel fully comprehended the underlying intent of Aldus’s proposition.
Given the recent decline of the Chadwick family, Mitchel’s grandfather saw the opportunity to perform the operation on the Fredrick family as a lifeline to restore their former glory.
And Mitchel was entrusted by him to perform the operation.
When Aldus made him an offer for future cooperation, he didn’t hesitate to accept.
Meanwhile, in the ward, Theodore was engrossed in the new phone brought to him by Devin.
The default screensaver and wallpapers Left him with a feeling of desolation.
He spent a considerable amount of time trying to find an appropriate wallpaper, but nothing seemed to resonate.
Devin was at his side, a silent guardian.
A nurse entered the room, carrying the personal items retrieved from the car accident site.
She queried, “How should these items be handled? Is there anything that needs to be kept?”
Devin glanced briefly over the items before addressing her, “Nothing of ours is there.
Dispose of them.
”
The nurse acknowledged his instructions.
As she turned to leave, Theodore’s eyes fell on something among the discarded items.
He suddenly sat upright, his voice echoing in the room.
“Wait.
”
The stunned nurse Later on came back with the item box.
Theodore rummaged through the pile of objects and finally found a necklace.
Engraved on the necklace were letters that shone coldly under the incandescent Lamp.
This was the couple necklace Ariana gave Theodore on his birthday.

Theodore gaze at the necklace for a while and then murmured absentmindedly, “Is this mine? It looks familiar.
”
Devin immediately recognized Theodore’s initials as the letters engraved on the necklace.
He then remembered what Aldus had told him and remarked calmly, “It should belong to another passenger in the car.
”
Theodore somehow felt a Little sad and dejected upon hearing Devin’s words.
He then turned his attention to the letters on the necklace, which did not match the initials of his name, Holden Fredrick.
Maybe it was not his after all.
Although Theodore thought so, he still held the necklace tightly in his hand.
“What about the other passengers in the car?” he asked without taking his eyes off the necklace.
Devin sighed and said in a sad voice, “They all died in that tragic car accident.
You’re the only survivor.
”
Upon hearing this, Theodore’s heart ached terribly.
However, he didn’t say anything.
