Chapter 186

The joke was on her!

…

Things weren’t looking good in the conference room back in Lockwood Corporation. Ava barged into the room and whispered in Mason’s ears.

He raised his eyes and looked at her, speechless.

She gritted her teeth and continued to say, “The fever’s nasty and she suffered some flesh wounds as well. Also, there was some conflict when they checked into the hospital. Ms. Zoe probably knows that Lilith is staying in the presidential suite!”

He sat there quietly for a long time. After a long pause, he rose and announced, “Meeting adjourned!”

Then, he raced out of the conference room. Ava was at his heels and said, “Your car is ready! Should we head for the hospital now, Mr. Mason?”

He didn't respond.

Sitting in the car, he leaned on the seat and closed his eyes. An image of Zoe lying on the table came to his mind. Then, he heard her voice in his head.

“You don’t know how to love anyone, Mason!”

He probably did what he did to her because she pushed his buttons!
