Kyle paused and rephrased, “Who did you contact after leaving the mental hospital? Or did anyone contact you?”This time, there was finally a slight movement in Luke’s vacant eyes. “He... contacted me...”“Who is he?”“East Erebar... Stephen...”Kyle’s expression changed as he clenched his fists. “Do you have his number?”“No... number... He... contacted me...”Arthur stood behind Kyle. When he heard Luke mention the words ‘East Erebar’ and ‘Stephen’, he instantly paled.He clenched his fists tightly and stared at Luke as if his eyes could pierce a hole through Luke.Kyle finished his questioning and was ready to leave.Before leaving, he glanced at Arthur and said, “I’ll have to trouble you to keep an eye on him here for now. He’s still useful. Don’t let him die.”“Don’t worry, Mr. Goodman. I know.”After Kyle left, Arthur walked up to Luke with bloodshot eyes. “Luke Fowler, you deserve to die!”Just then, his phone rang.Arthur picked up the phone and saw a number starti
After leaving the basement, Kyle went to the hospital.Mable had been transferred from the ICU to a VIP ward, with Blair guarding her closely.“Luke confessed. Someone from East Erebar contacted him after he escaped from the mental hospital. He mentioned that the person who contacted him was working for Stephen...”Kyle told Blair the information Luke revealed.Blair sat by the bed, carefully holding Mable’s hand. She had only woken up for a short while before falling asleep again.At Kyle’s words, a cold and gloomy aura shrouded Blair’s face. His dark eyes were unfathomable.Stephen of East Erebar again...What grudge did he have against Blair?Blair looked at Kyle and said, “Contact Solomon and tell him to be ready to close the net at any time.”“Got it.”Kyle paused before saying, “Stephen must have people planted in Richworth since he understands Luke’s situation so well. I’ve already sent someone to investigate the clues. We’ll have a lead before long.”Blair nodded and
Zoe was instantly anxious when she heard that Mable was sick. “Mabes is sick? Is it serious? Ky, I want to see Mabes...”Kyle rubbed her head and said, “It’s too late today. We’ll go tomorrow, okay?”With a worried expression, Zoe looked at Kyle and said, “I hope Mabes is okay. With her medical skills, she should be able to heal herself.”Kyle nodded and said nothing.In this world, no matter how good one’s medical skills were, there were still diseases that could not be cured and poisons that could not be detoxified...Zoe saw Kyle’s frown and worried expression and said, “Ky, is Mabes seriously ill?”Kyle looked at her and said, “It’s a bit serious, but we need to be optimistic. You can’t cry when we go to the hospital to see her tomorrow, okay? Mable is already hurting from being sick. She’ll be even more sad if she sees you cry.”Upon hearing this, Zoe felt a sense of unease in her heart.She silently prayed for Mable to be okay....Mable woke up again the next morning.
Mable looked at Blair and forced a smile on her face. “Did you forget? I’m also a doctor. I know very well what my condition is.”The atmosphere in the ward became even heavier.To the side, the doctor and nurse looked at Mable and then at Blair, their expressions filled with helplessness and sorrow.Although they had seen many such scenes as medical professionals, witnessing Mable on the bed now still filled their hearts with lament at her cruel fate.Blair stared at Mable, his eyes filled with endless sadness. “Mabes...”How could he tell her that she only had a month left?It was too cruel...Mable knew Blair could not tell her, so she looked at the doctor and forced a brave smile. “Tell me the truth. How much time do I have left?”The doctor sighed in his heart and said honestly, “Mrs. Fowler, your poisoning is severe, and there are already signs of failure in multiple organs. Based on your current situation, you can hold on for another month at most.”Mable stiffened. A m
When Zoe saw Mable, she immediately rushed over to hold her hand. “Mabes, how are you? Why are your hands so cold?”Mable looked at Zoe and smiled faintly. “I’m fine, Zoe... I’m just a little sick.”Zoe looked at her and touched her face, full of concern. “You don’t look like you’re just a little sick.”“That’s how illnesses are. Don’t worry.”With Zoe keeping her company in the ward, Blair stepped out.“Master Blair, Dr. Sandman has arrived. He’s waiting for you in the office.”Blair nodded and went to the office.In the office, Dr. Sandman was examining Mable’s medical records that Amos gave him.After reading them, he frowned deeply, showing signs of worry.From Mable’s examination results, her condition did not look optimistic.The office door opened, and Blair walked in.He looked at Dr. Sandman and said, “Dr. Sandman, sorry for calling you back to Richworth again.”“No worries. Have a seat, Master Blair.”After Blair sat down, Dr. Sandman picked up Mable’s medical re
Kyle looked at Blair and let out a long sigh, saying, “Amos told me.”Blair nodded faintly. He was also planning to tell Kyle soon.There were many follow-up matters that required Kyle’s assistance.He needed to resolve all the troubles before the surgery.“Blair, you...”“Don’t try to persuade me,” Blair interrupted his words, his voice devoid of any fluctuations. “If the person lying in the hospital bed was Zoe, I think you would make the same decision as me.”Kyle opened his mouth but could not bring himself to speak the words.Forget it.He knew he could not persuade Blair, so he chose not to say anything more.However...“Aren’t you telling Mable?”Blair frowned, and his eyes darkened. “She can’t find out.”Kyle nodded. He knew Blair would choose to keep it from Mable.“Solomon sent a message earlier, saying he wants to have a video call with us. There’s something important he wants to discuss.”Blair nodded and walked toward the hospital room. “Okay, but I want to g
Back then, in order to secure the position of the family head, Luke did not hesitate to harm his two brothers and caused them to die in a car and maritime accidents.Even their family members were not spared.“Boss, I’ve confirmed it. Anthony’s godfather is your third uncle, James Fowler. He didn’t die in the accident in the sea but escaped to East Erebar, where he married the daughter of the top family in East Erebar, the Luthers. Now, he’s the head of the Luther family and goes under the alias ‘Stephen’...”In the video, Solomon spoke while typing on the keyboard, sending the documents to Blair.“I’ve emailed you the details. You can take a look.”Blair took out his phone and tapped on Solomon’s mail.Kyle walked over and looked at the documents, too.Blair skimmed through it and soon finished reading everything.In an instant, he understood everything.It was no wonder...James wanted revenge against Luke, so the best way was to destroy his position as the head of the fami
Blair sat on a chair, looking at Arthur in front of him expressionlessly.Arthur knelt in front of him before he could speak.“Master Blair, I’m begging you... Please don’t tell Trace!”The moment he was captured by Kyle’s men, he knew his identity had been exposed.Although he knew this day would come eventually, he did not expect it to be so soon...For an instant, he thought of running.In the end, he chose to give up.He did not want to return to the hopeless days of the past. In fact, Arthur felt better now that Blair discovered his identity.He could finally put down this heavy burden.Blair stared at Arthur and laughed coldly. He thought someone like Arthur, trained as an undercover assassin from a young age, would have some backbone. Unexpectedly, he was already begging for mercy before Blair said anything.However, Arthur was not begging him to spare his life but rather not to reveal the truth to Tracey.Blair sneered. “Don’t tell Tracey what? Your identity or your
