Chapter 136 Thank you
"How are you now? Ms. Moore."
"I'm fine. Thank you for coming to see me, Your Highness the Duke."
" I mean, you shouldn't hide this from me..."
"So what? This can't be changed."
Barron personally picked up Yulia from the hospital - she suddenly fainted while working before and was discovered by her secretary and sent to the hospital in time.
It was at this time that Barron learned that Yulia suffered from a rare congenital heart disease, which originated from her family inheritance.
Normally, they are no different from normal people, but there is a very small chance that they will suffer cardiac arrest and fail to receive timely treatment, which will lead to death.
According to doctors, with this extremely rare disease, 40% of people will die before the age of twenty-five, and there is a 60% chance of living beyond the age of forty - there are currently records The longest life expectancy for people with this disease is 52 years.
"I think you need to get the best possible treatment and try to eradicate the underlying problem..."
"Don't be so nervous, Your Highness the Duke, this is just the first time I have had such symptoms, and thankfully, I am at least 60% lucky..."
Regarding Yulia's words , Barron didn’t know how to answer for a moment.
Before coming here, he specifically asked the doctor, who also said that with the current medical technology, there is still no effective treatment for Yulia’s rare congenital heart disease. Treatments to eradicate hidden dangers.
To put it bluntly, people who really suffer from this disease can only accept that they do not know when they will experience cardiac arrest and be stared at by the god of death.
After being discharged from the hospital, Yulia immediately entered into work. Regarding Barron’s words to persuade her to take more rest, Yulia just said calmly:
"I know my situation better, Your Highness the Duke, and because of this situation, I don't want to waste my time."
Although each industry under the family trust fund has its own person in charge, But Yulia still has a lot of work, especially when it comes to the cooperation between these industries.
For example, the ongoing renovation of Chatsworth Manor and Callan Castle is accompanied by the renovation of the Manor Hotel and Castle Hotel under the Cavendish Hotel Group. There is also a lot of work that requires Yulia to coordinate.
But on this day, in Yulia's office, Barron still "forced" her to get off work on time.
“I still have something to deal with, Your Highness the Duke.”
"There is still time tomorrow, because today is a special day."
Yulia raised her head and glanced at Barron. After she thought of today's date, she showed a look of realization.
"You finally remembered, Ms. Moore, happy birthday... although I originally wanted to sell it off first."
"So this is why you came here today to ask me Reason for leaving get off work early?"
"It's already half past seven, Ms. Moore..."
Barron deliberately looked at his watch and said:
“Although as your boss, I would be very happy to have such active employees, but today, if it continues to be like this, it would be too much. It’s so unkind.”
So next, Yulia took Barron’s car and came to the Devonshire Hotel with him, where the most luxurious private room was already prepared. Feast, and birthday cake. "What, what are you thinking about?"
After having dinner and cutting the cake together, Barron saw Yulia looking at the cake in front of her in a daze. , then asked aloud.
"Actually, after I turned eighteen, the Duke spent every birthday with me..."
Barron knew that the Duke she was talking about was not referring to herself, but to him. The father of this body, the twelfth Duke of Devonshire.
“Actually, in my heart, I regard him as a father. I once thought that if I came to the end of the day, maybe he would help me hold the funeral... But I never thought The only thing is, he will do it before me..."
"So, the reason why you were not with my brother was because of your Body..."
"Frankly, I don't mind having a partner, but I wouldn't want children because I don't want my future children to suffer from my misfortune. , James is not among my choices, at least I can’t let the Devonhill family lose the next generation of heirs.”
Barron took a sip of the red wine in the glass and said lightly:
"Sometimes I feel that, Ms. Moore, your sense of mission for the Devonshire family is much stronger than mine."< br>
“Perhaps at some point, people always have to find a sustenance for themselves, especially when your life is more fragile than most people.”
Yulia looked at Barron with a smile on her face:
“I have to say, Your Highness the Duke, what you have done for the Devonshire family is beyond my expectation, maybe It can be said that even James in this position may not be able to do as well as you. I now really believe that the Devonshire family can prosper again.”
In fact, for Barron, although he had been verbally saying something like "reviving the family" before, in his heart, he did not regard the prosperity of the Devonshire family too much as a own goals.
After all, his own soul comes more from China in his previous life, and his sense of belonging to the Devonshire family is not that strong.
To put it bluntly, it is just because of the current status of the Duke and the foundation of the Devonshire family, which can benefit him more.
Although the current result is that the Devonshire family seems to have developed greatly, this is just a "by-product" of Barron's benefit for himself, not his own ultimate goal.
It’s just that at this time, faced with Yulia who was in such a mood, Barron couldn’t really say that.
In this private room, there is an observation deck with excellent sight. In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the Victorian-style buildings reflected in the light outside.
Yuliya and Barron were talking like this. They stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the scenery outside.
"Your Highness, can I lean on you for a moment?"
When Barron opened his arms, Yulia put her arms around his waist and rested her head on his shoulder. Previous:
“I just want to lean on each other like this at this time, nothing else...”
"I know, Ms. Moore."
Barron's voice came from above her head, and Yulia closed her eyes slightly:
"Thank you very much for accompanying me today. It’s my birthday, thank you.”
