Chapter 160 - The Press Conference (2/2)

Where was the girl now? thought Jean anxiously.

Caspar just landed his helicopter on the roof of the Continental hotel. He finished composing himself on F Island and must now return to the real world. From the sky he could see several TV broadcast cars in the parking lot and he became curious with what was happening in the hotel.

As soon as he entered the penthouse, he called the receptionist to ask who the famous guest in their hotel was and why so many reporters were attracted to come.

”Oh... there is a press conference in one of our halls, sir. There is a team of doctors from Raffles Hospital and the movie star Jean Pierre Wang,” said Manager Park.

Instantly Caspar's mind flew to Finland's friend. Famke wiped away his memory a few years ago, and then shot him in his apartment. He then fell into a coma for nine months, which marked the start of the problems between him and Finland, and finally the girl left him.

Clouds immediately covered his mind. With long steps he descended to the ground floor and headed for the Orchard Hall where the press conference was held. In the room, dozens of journalists were gathered and recorded carefully all the things presented by the team of doctors and Jean.

Caspar was about to step toward Jean, when suddenly some words caught his attention.

”... Unfortunately, the test results show that Jean's bone marrow is incompatible with the patient. Therefore, we kindly request anyone who knows Miss Finland and her whereabouts... to contact her and inform her of this situation. Miss Finland is our only hope...”

Caspar was soon able to link the information he received piece by piece and concluded that the child produced from the embryo made of Finland's eggs and Jean sperm was now sick and needed a bone marrow transplant.

Jean had been tested and he was found to be incompatible, so they hoped to find Finland. The family and doctors had exhausted their options and were asking the internet community all over the world to help find Finland.

A speck of guilt stuck in Caspar's heart when he remembered that he was the person responsible for wiping out Jean's memory. Maybe they could break even if Caspar helped the boy get the bone marrow donor he needed.

He took out his phone and contacted Jadeith.

”I need to look for Finland. This is an important matter,” he said quickly.

The phone rang 10 minutes later.

”Miss Finland is in Manaus with Mr. Lauriel...” Jadeith said nervously. He did not like to convey such news to Caspar, because he could imagine Caspar's mood going down the drain.

”Manaus...? Brazil?” Caspar asked in disbelief. ”How long?”

”It's been two weeks.”

”Oh...” Instantly his pity for the boy and his guilt towards Jean was eroded by the thought of Lauriel taking Finland to his special place. He was very jealous. Caspar knew he would never get rid of this bitter feeling.

He left the Orchard hall and returned to his penthouse. He no longer cared if the child died.
