My Wife Act Differently Behind Me
Chapter 2841

Chapter 2841

After hanging up, Nicole looked around her office with a sense of longing in her eyes. With Lulu's and Patricia gone, she felt rather lonely in this place. However, if Patricia's absence meant that she could find her happiness in BayCorp, Nicole would be more than happy to let her go. As for Lulu, she should be returning soon.

She also believed that Harvey would not remain in the state he was in forever, although he would be broken and depressed for a while.

Meanwhile, Thomas was sighing in despair as he stared at a catatonic Harvey in the ward. He had imagined all possible scenarios that would unfold following the end of the feud between Harvey and Nicole, but what he failed to anticipate was that the blow would be too strong for Harvey to stomach.

"Mr. Ellison? Will your grandson remain this way?" his assistant asked in concern.

"I hope he'll be back on his feet soon," Thomas replied, overwhelmed by a sense of helplessness in this situation.

He had hired some of the best psychologists and psychiatrists in the country to help his grandson, but to no avail. At this rate, Harvey could only depend on himself; if he could not pull, and was unwilling to pull himself together, there was nothing anyone could do to help him.

"We can afford to wait for his recovery, but the company cannot. What are we going to do?" his assistant asked in concern.

At present, Nicole was already at the helm overseeing the company, and if, God forbid, she decided to crush Ellison Group, they would be left with nothing, since Harvey was no longer present to take control o the situation.

"Don't worry. Nothing of that sort will happen," Thomas defended Nicole.

Then, he glanced over at the assistant and added, "You should be thankful that Nicole is still willing to help us manage the company."

Without Nicole's help, Ellison Group might already be in ruins. However, Harvey's assistant was left baffled by Thomas' faith in Nicole, though he was more than willing to quit doubting her. As he stared at Harvey, he realized that all he could do was pray for a speedy recovery for his employer.

"You may leave now," Thomas ordered.

To that, the assistant agreed, his face pale and scrunched up with worry. "Yes sir."

Once the assistant had exited the ward, Thomas turned to Harvey and addressed him. "Are you going to remain in your current state of self-pity and not care about anything?" Harvey's head hung low, and he remained speechless and unresponsive.

"I'll hand Nicole the company for now. If you're going to stay pathetic, you won't be getting the company back," Thomas declared, as none of his attempts at advising Harvey had gotten through to him. However, even with such strong words being used, Harvey remained in the same old, soulless position he was in. No matter what Thomas did, he just would not budge.

"Do you really care about anything at all?! Are you going to waste your entire life like this?" Thomas raised his voice, almost screaming in Harvey's face.

Harvey appeared to be shocked for a moment. His eyes were glossy and lifeless as slowly lifted his head to look at Thomas. Then, he gradually laid his head down again without so much as a change to the blank, expressionless look on his face.

As expected, Thomas was left heartbroken upon witnessing the state his grandson was in. He clutched his chest in pain, unable to bear the agony of seeing Harvey the way he was. Trembling and shuddering, he took a pill from his pocket and swallowed it.

He felt marginally better after he had sat down to calm himself. Then, he looked at Harvey, who remained unresponsive, wondering if he would stay like that forever.

A sigh escaped Thomas' lips again, and tears soon welled up in his eyes. He was worried that Harvey would be consigned to his present state of catatonia forever.
