Chapter 627

The President looked at the young couple in front of him, raising hiseyebrows. Not everyone could remain calm and collected under hisintimidating gaze. This made him take a closer look at the couplebefore him, especially since he appeared on television almost everyday and they must have known who he was, yet they remainedunfazed.

He had thought that the person who saved his mother's life would takeadvantage of their relationship to ask for something in return or demandsomething from him...

Sylvia silently watched him as a strong aura emanated from thePresident.

"Mr. President, it seems like your mother is feeling lonely. The elderlyneed companionship, and you're busy with your work. Don't neglect hermental health."

Was she giving advice now? The President couldn't help but laugh.“You know I'm the President, yet you dare to speak to me like this?"Sylvia spoke calmly while looking straight into his. "We haven't brokenany laws by speaking to you this way."

"Young people these days are courageous,” The President noddedapprovingly. "So tell me, how can I thank you?"

Half an hour later, Sylvia and Franklin left the hospital room together asshe let out a long sigh.

“Let's go home, honey," Franklin hugged her waist.

Just then Sylvia's phone rang; she pulled it out of her pocket and sawJenna's name on the screen before answering immediately, "Jenna.""Miss Andrews..." Jenna hesitated for a moment before continuing,"Brayden and I arrived in Urgford; we heard that you were here withMaster Franklin too. Do you want to visit Cody with us?"

“That sounds good. Where are you guys? We'll come replace you." Sylviasoftened her voice whenever she talked to Jenna.

After getting an address from Jenna, the phone call ended abruptly.Sylvia turned directly towards Franklin, saying,“Let's go! Brayden andJenna have arrived."

Franklin nodded while adding, "Prepare some things for Cody too.Living inside won't be easy..."

Meanwhile at the President's office, the tired-looking president walkedinto his office only to replace old Mr. Bennett waiting there for quite sometime already.

The President sat down in his office chair, looking at the pale andhaggard face of the old Mr. Bennett. He wondered what this elderlyman, who was already well past his prime, could possibly want fromhim.

He had just received the old Mr. Bennett and hadn't even asked abouthis purpose when he received a call from one of his security guards,saying that they had found his mother in the hospital.

After he arrived at the hospital, he received another call, saying that theold Mr. Bennett would wait in his office until he came back.

He comforted the old lady for a while before rushing back to his office.His mother, and the old Mr. Bennett were both old enough, but theywere like stubborn kids so much!

"What important matter do you have to discuss with me?" ThePresident rubbed his forehead as he spoke respectfully to the old Mr.Bennett.

"Well..." the old Mr. Bennett began speaking but immediately broke intoa violent coughing fit, "... it's about Larro."

“Larro?" The President raised an eyebrow,"Are you also here becauseof Cody?"

He asked in surprise, "Mr. President, what do you mean “also'?"

The old Mr. Bennett looked puzzled,

"Go home now." sighed the President.

Upon hearing these words, the old Mr. Bennett became anxious; hehadn't yet made any plea, so why would the President send him away?“I'm not going anywhere! Cody is a good person! He's been..."

“I know," said the President with some helplessness in his eyes, "Thismatter needs to be reinvestigated; although Cody has been imprisonedwithout conviction, there is still irrefutable evidence against him, so Idon't think there will be much chance of overturning it."

"Mr. President, what did you say?" asked the old Mr. Bennett, lookingconfused once again.

Before he could plead the President, the latter had planned onreinvestigating Cody's case.

"I said this matter needed to be reinvestigated,” smiled the Presidentseeing how bewildered the old Mr. Bennett looked, “I'm not such anunfeeling person. Managing our country can be tiring, and I also hopethere are more honest officials like Cody out there."

"Thank you... Mr. President.” The old Mr. Bennett finally felt relieved, "Ihope we get good results.”

His mind conjured up Sylvia's beautiful face. She should be happy now,right?

"Mr. President, may I ask why you have decided to thoroughlyinvestigate this matter?" He couldn't help but ask curiously. After all, hehad heard that the President's attitude was very firm and would notchange.

"It's nothing, just... I accepted a young sister. It feels pretty good," thePresident smiled mysteriously. "Alright, I'll have someone send youback.”
