Charlie took the file and looked it over. The patient's name was Joel Carr. He had been admitted to the hospital after being hit by a vehicle, suffering from multiple soft tissue contusions and superficial injuries. However, there was no damage to his bones or muscles, so it didn't seem to be a serious problem. Charlie turned to Pitt and queried, "His condition isn't serious. There's no need to admit him to the hospital, right? Wouldn't it be enough to just observe him in the ER?" Dr. Pitt gasped and quickly explained, "You may not know this, but the patient is Mr. Zekeiah Cash's assistant. Zekeiah is very famous in New York, and his wife is a member of the Ackers. He personally called the hospital director and asked him to transfer the patient to the 17th-floor ward for treatment." "What did you say?" Charlie frowned in dismay. "Zekeiah Cash? Lulu Acker's husband?" "Yes!" Dr. Pitt nodded. Charlie curled his fingers into a fist and gritted his teeth. It seemed that the thr
After Keith expressed his opinion, Christian affirmed, "Since Charlie already has solid proof, I second that!" "Yes, Dad!" Kaeden nodded. "I firmly support your decision." Sensing Keith's concern, Merlin smacked his lips and said, "I support you too, but once the deed is done, will Lulu be okay with it? Will she be mad at Charlie?" Keith waved his hand. "Our family will not be so ignorant. She will understand." Then, Keith attested firmly, "However, besides Charlie, only the four of us know about this. After the dust settles, no matter how Lulu reacts, we must never mention it. We shall keep this a secret." The three men nodded simultaneously. A tacit understanding was the best solution for this kind of thing. Keith was silent for a moment, then he quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and replied to Charlie's message with a determined expression. "Charlie, kill Zekeiah if you can, but your safety is the most important." He then sent another message
After reading Keith's messages, Charlie kept the phone in his pocket and asked Pitt, "What tests have you done to the patient in Room 1707? Show me his files." Pitt immediately handed Joel's medical records to Charlie. Charlie read through them and asked, "Do you have an extra white coat? Get me one." "Yes, yes." Pitt swiftly handed Charlie an extra white coat. After putting it on, Charlie said, "Come with me to Room 1707." "Okay, Dr. Wade." Pitt nodded. At this moment, in Ward 1707. Mr. Zorro closed his eyes and used his Reiki to sense the situation in the room as well as the surrounding wards. When he realized that a team of FBI agents was lying in wait, he couldn't help but frown in dismay. Even Charlie wasn't sure he could sneak Raymond out of here quietly, let alone Mr. Zorro. Hence, Mr. Zorro was perplexed, not knowing what to do. Noticing that Mr. Zorro had opened his eyes, Zekeiah walked forward and asked, "How is it?" Mr. Zorro shook his head, smacked his
At this moment, Zekeiah had no idea that the young doctor wearing a mask in front of him had anything special about him. He felt that with his status, even the chairman of the hospital would treat him with utmost respect and modesty. He viewed the young ER doctor as someone who wanted to get to know him and curry favor with him. Hence, he did not take Charlie seriously. Charlie, on the other hand, donned a polite smile and said, "Mr. Cash, I'm the head of the ER. We are here to see the patient's family. Are you his family?" Zekeiah raised his chin and said arrogantly, "He is my assistant, so, yes, I'm his family. You can tell me anything about him." Charlie smiled and began, "Oh, since you are our distinguished guest, in order to show our respect, we decided to move the patient to the VIP ward on the top floor. The room is much larger and more comfortable than this room. It is more convenient for you and your companion to keep the patient company." While speaking, Charli
Charlie deliberately revealed the truth about Raymond and the FBI in order to deceive Zekeiah and Mr. Zorro with the most sincere pretense. His goal was to physically separate the two men. Only by separating them would it be convenient to defeat them one by one. Therefore, he deliberately brought up the FBI and fabricated a so-called demand. Nonetheless, with the truth told in the previous statement, the latter bluff seemed credible. In fact, Zekeiah and Mr. Zorro felt that what Charlie said must be the truth without consulting each other. They believed that the FBI should have restricted the number of visitors accompanying the patient in order to minimize the potential danger. The demand was reasonable and convincing. Of course, Zekeiah refused to give in. He assumed that Mr. Zorro might cause his death eventually, but the opportunity to make an achievement was right in front of him. If there was anyone who had to go, it had to be him. In that case, he would lose his c
It would be helpful if Zekeiah could stay. Mr. Zorro figured that he would need Zekeiah's help for his retreat as well as a safe house if he succeeded. Therefore Mr. Zorro did not want Zekeiah to leave. However, it was not the time to be stubborn. He could clearly see the situation they were in and distinguish the importance of the matter. First of all, he could not leave. One, he was the only one who was able to take Biden away from the FBI. Second, he did not want Zekeiah to stay and challenge the FBI's request. If they truly attracted the FBI's attention and the FBI forced them to change rooms, they would be in a difficult position. Taking action directly wouldn't have a high chance of success, but if they did move to a different floor, there might be no opportunity to act at all. So, after weighing the pros and cons, Mr. Zorro decided to let Zekeiah go first to avoid the FBI's unwanted attention. Zekeiah was very upset when he heard Mr. Zorro's words, but he knew
Zekeiah figured that Charlie, disguised as a doctor, had to be following the FBI's orders. No one would ignore the FBI's request. Moreover, Charlie's mannerisms were humble and kind, which made him feel less angry. So, he snarled expressionlessly, "You're right. Those FBIs are all fucking bullshits! They can't even handle their business properly, yet they have the guts to control other patients' families! They are fucking bastards!" Charlie donned a flattering smile and nodded. "You're right, Mr. Cash." Then, he lowered his voice and added, "Don't worry. I'll wait until the evening and watch the FBI. If they are lax and not so alert at night, I'll find a way to sneak you into the hospital." Zekeiah's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he subconsciously queried, "Is it doable?" "I don't think it's a problem," Charlie convinced him attentively. "But we still need to observe them tonight. These people tend to be strict for a while and then relax. They're stricter when the leade
Lulu was still a college student when Curtis had died, so Zekeiah had never met Curtis. However, the Qing Eliminating Society had been grooming him for Lulu since his college days. At that time, there were more than twenty young male scholars who were groomed just like he was. Most of them were of pure Oskian descent, and a small number were of mixed Oskian and foreign descent. Some mongrels or mixed blood were chosen because the society wasn't sure what Lulu's preference for a partner would be like after she grew up, so they selected these charming scholars and trained them rigorously. Lulu had no idea that the outstanding boys around her who had excellent grades, extremely rich knowledge, and gentlemanly manners that far surpassed ordinary peers, were almost all scholars of the Qing Eliminating Society. The purpose of the society was clear-cut. Someone among these high-quality men who surrounded Lulu would be able to win her heart and get his place in the Acker family.
