A Journey from Bitterness to Truth (Matilda and Yvan) novel Chapter 402

The gesture was clear: Matilda needed to eat something, if not for herself, then at least for Logan's sake.

Matilda didn't respond verbally, but she took Carl's phone and ordered a bowl of porridge. Carl also added a few light side dishes to the order before placing it.

That evening, Yvan picked up Logan from school, and together, the father and son duo arrived at the hospital room. They acted as if the harrowing experience at Jungle Union had never happened, carefully avoiding the topic as if to shield Matilda from any further distress.

Upon seeing Logan, a smile visibly broke across Matilda's face. However, her expression tensed slightly when she noticed Yvan behind him, a reaction subtle yet sharp enough to sting Yvan.

He lingered at the doorway, allowing Logan to enter first before he slowly made his way in. Matilda had some of the takeout, and her complexion seemed to brighten. Keaton mentioned that her mood had been improving over the past few days and urged Yvan not to do anything that might stress her out further.

Memories of Hadrian's chilling words echoed in Yvan's mind as he recalled leaving with Matilda: “Mr. Boyd, have you ever considered that the Matilda you're holding might not actually be Matilda?”

Yvan didn't delve into the meaning of those words. He had already severed all ties with Jungle Union, vowing to press them until they offered an apology satisfactory to both him and Matilda. Otherwise, he would use all his resources to crush Jungle Union.

Yvan alone wasn't the threat; it was Yvan backed by his influential friends who were considered the pillars of Sea City. With just a word from Yvan, Jungle Union wouldn't find a second organization willing to take them on.
