Chase really wanted to give Leon a good beating. Why had he attacked Thomas today of all days?Normally, it wouldn't have been a big deal if Thomas ended up dying here. However, Heather had seen everything.Heather looked at Leon inquisitively. "He was bothering you? Even if it was a fight, you didn't have to beat him to an inch of his life, did you? It's clear that you want to kill him. Where did the stab wound on his body come from?"Ivan, who was standing at the side, narrowed his eyes and gave Leon a discreet look. Leon said coldly, "I stabbed him. I don't like him, so what? He had it coming!"Heather gritted her teeth. "You!"The doctor suddenly yelled out anxiously, "His pupils are dilating! This is bad!" Heather froze when she heard that. She couldn't be bothered with Leon anymore; she turned around and diverted her attention to Thomas, who was still unconscious. His breathing was getting shallower, and the doctor was performing CPR on him.Heather's face became pale.
Chase passed his phone to Heather, and she typed in a string of numbers.Her call was picked up very quickly, and Tyrone's bitter voice came from the other end of the line. "Who is it?"Heather's fingers tightened around the phone. "Mr. Elkin—""So you still know how to call me? Where did you go?" Tyrone's furious roar cut Heather off after she had only muttered two words. "How dare you run away when I was asleep, Heather? Do you really think I won't do anything to you? I'll give you ten minutes, or—"It had been almost ten hours since Heather had left the hospital to see Macey, and her phone had been unreachable. Tyrone had thought that she had run away. His voice was so loud that it hurt Heather's ear. She could feel his fury even through the phone. Tyrone's angry face and Thomas' bloodied face flashed through her mind alternatingly. Her grip on the phone tightened. "Tyrone."The line went quiet for a few seconds when Tyrone was cut off before he could finish. Then, his co
Caleb smiled. "It's not about doing your best, doctor. Mr. Elkin says that Mr. Snyder cannot die. Do you understand what I mean?"In other words, if Thomas died, all the doctors would be on the chopping block!The expression on Harry's face froze as he nodded. "Alright, I understand. You don't have to worry about this!"The doctors all went into the operating room, leaving only Heather, Caleb, and Chase behind in the corridor.Caleb then said to Heather, "Ms. Sutton, the surgery is going to take a long time. Mr. Elkin is still waiting for you, so you should return to the ward for now. I'll inform you if there's any news about Mr. Snyder."Heather shook her head and bit her lip. "I want to wait here."She knew she couldn't help by standing at the door, but Thomas' injuries were too severe. She was afraid that she would get some bad news instead. Caleb was about to console her again when he suddenly saw someone approaching them from the elevator. He said respectfully, "Mr. Elkin.
In a lavishly decorated bedroom, two naked figures were intertwined on a messy king-size bed. Sensual moans echoed in the room as the man and woman got intimate. Suddenly, the sound of a phone ringing interrupted them, ruining the steamy atmosphere between the them. Jay, who was in bed, stopped. The woman knew that he wanted to leave, and she used her legs to wrap tightly around his waist. "Don't leave me.""Stop it. It's work." He kissed her and then sat up, reaching out to get his phone from the bedside table.His gentle facial features were tinged with desire, and he looked especially captivating under the dim light.The woman beside him looked at him with sultry eyes. Unable to hold back her desire, she crawled over to him and put her head by his waist, taking the initiative. Jay glanced at her and didn't stop her. Instead, he put his hand on her head and picked up the phone. His voice was calm, betraying no signs of what was happening in the room."What is it?""Someone
Heather shook her head. "You should go. I'll wait until Thomas' surgery is over."Tyrone frowned, then wrapped his strong arms around her all of a sudden, picking her up like a princess and walking toward the elevator."Ah!" Heather was so surprised that she held on to his clothes. She looked at Tyrone in surprise and said, "What are you doing? I want to wait for him here. Put me down."Tyrone walked into the elevator with her in his arms, glaring at her coldly. "The doctors will take him to a ward after the surgery. "What's the point of you waiting there? Are you going to help the doctor with the surgery? Or are you going to guard him?""But…""Just look at yourself right now. Let's go back and wait. Caleb will inform you if there's any news."Heather saw her reflection in the mirror. Her outfit was wrinkled and dirty, her arms were black with grime, and her hair was very disheveled. She looked terrible.There was no room for negotiation as Tyrone took Heather back to his war
Of course, Tyrone had heard Heather call out to him. He'd intentionally remained silent. He felt something stir within him. His desire was surging, and he wanted to have her again. His eyes were as intense as usual, and Heather couldn't look away. She felt a little uncomfortable being stared at like that, and she blushed even more. She tightly gripped the towel and asked, "Can you call the nurse and get me a fresh hospital gown?""Come here," Tyrone said as he stared at her.Heather looked at him and walked over. She had just reached the couch when he suddenly reached out and held her by the waist, pulling her into his embrace. Heather stumbled and landed on his thigh.She instinctively put her hand against his chest, feeling his intense warmth. Her actions stemmed from resistance; she wanted to keep her distance from him."Oh?" Tyrone raised his eyebrow. There was a hint of displeasure in his calm tone.Heather was stunned. She finally remembered what she had promised Tyro
It was obvious that Tyrone didn't want to wait.Heather's heart sank. Tyrone was well within his rights if he wanted to sleep with her. He had wanted her body all along, so he was simply taking what was rightfully his.Last time, he had allowed her to rest for a few days because he had been worried that she had been hurt. This time, she wasn't injured, and she had no valid excuses to say no.She had to sleep with him, eventually.There was disappointment in Heather's eyes as she bit her lip and slowly closed her eyes. "Make it quick…"After she had just finished saying those words, her face suddenly felt cold, as if an ointment had been smeared on her face. The scent of the ointment slowly permeated in the air.Heather shuddered and opened her eyes, only to see Tyrone gazing at her. His finger rubbed in a circular motion where she had been slapped earlier.She lowered her eyes and saw that he was holding a tube of ointment in his other hand, with the words "anti-inflammatory" wr
Heather wasn't that angry anymore since she knew it was for her own good."I never expected that someone would try to do such a thing when I went to look for Thomas in prison." She had only been visiting. She hadn't thought that the prison guard would set his eyes on her."That's why I said you're stupid."Tyrone couldn't help but cut her off angrily. When he remembered how her outfit had been torn just now, the murderous intent in his eyes grew. His words became harsher as well."How old are you? How can you be so trusting of others? You won't even know what hit you when you die."He paused, and his sneer was cold. "Is Thomas that important to you? He only sponsored your studies for a few years. You can sacrifice anything for their family, but are you going to sacrifice your life too?"Tyrone, with his high status, came from a different world. People from his circle would never trust anyone else.He had expected that Heather would beg him to help the Snyders. After the Snyder
