Chapter 1971

"Just a phone?" the geezer asked in concern. "You didn't see anyone?""Nope." The grunt looked around waily with his cell phone's flashlight. "There's no one around here. Maybe someone from the hospital dropped it by accident.""Dropped it? I see…"The geezer patted his chest and sighed in relief at the grunt's reasoning. Still, he snapped, "Now listen here—keep looking. We need to make sure that there's no one else other than us here."You know what would happen if we're exposed—you, me, and everyone else here will become expendable assets for the commissioner and Carlo Group. None of us will survive!""Yes, sir!"The grunts were certainly somber at the geezer's grave words and continued to comb through every nook and cranny around him.Knowing that there was no escaping now, Jolie, who slowly approached the storeroom shutters, finally resolved herself to stay out of this mess involving Zamri Hospital.With a bigwig like the Zamri commissioner being involved, crushing a meas

Since they had to be quick, the truck engine was not turned off.And as soon as he got into the truck, Yannick spun the wheel while flooring the gas pedal, sending the truck bounding straight toward the shadow."You made me do this! Die!" He bellowed savagely as the truck closed in on the fleeing shadow, and as she turned in panic, he actually saw her face."It was her?!"Yannick did a double take since he recognized the face—she was one of the journalists who had been anonymously tipped by Carlo Group to check out Zamri Hospital earlier today.But now that she had found out about his plot, Yannick could not allow her to run and rat him out.Otherwise, the commissioner's plan would be foiled, and even he would be fucked!"Blame your own bad luck. You could've looked anywhere else, but you had to hide in that storeroom and see what we were doing!"Smirking savagely, Yannick jammed his foot harder on the gas pedal.Jolie could actually hear the thundering rumble of an engine c

"Alright, I'll be right there."Winter did not complain at all as she scrubbed up and followed the attending physician into the operating room.She actually flinched when she saw the terrible state Jolie was in as she lay bleeding and dying on the operating table."Prepare for surgery!"However, Winter was not cowed, immediately knowing that they needed an open chest surgery to save Jolie.As she worked gingerly, Frank arrived downstairs.He had found out from Trevor Zurich that Carlo Group was a sizable faction in the midlands. In fact, they could be considered giants, being involved not just in pharmaceuticals, but also in tourism and finance.There were even rumors that they had ties to Thousand Isles Guild of the South Sea.In fact, Frank had come to the hospital precisely to assist in an ongoing investigation, calling in several police officers.The body of Helen's alleged drunk driving victim was still here in the Zamri Hospital morgue, and he would prove Helen's innocen

"How'd you know?""Why wouldn't I know? The commissioner himself staged this whole thing!""Watch what you say, unless you have proof!"Frank entered just then, and the police officers who were whispering among each other quickly composed themselves.The policewoman earlier even cleared her throat awkwardly.Still, Frank did not demand the truth from them—they would not tell him anything and were just following orders.At the same time, he realized that the Zamri commissioner was in league with Carlo Group as he had expected, and they were out to take down Frank himself, Lanecorp, and even Zamri Hospital."Oh, right!"Still, Frank suddenly remembered the token that Stanley Durban, the mayor of Zamri, had given him.It was obvious that someone among the officers inside the morgue had mentioned the commissioner on purpose when he stepped outside to make his phone call.Was it possible that one of them was working for Stanley?Taking out the dagger and weighing it on his palm,

"Don't worry." Frank smiled, seeing both nurses' nervous reaction. "Many journalists came in yesterday, so I was wondering about the one you mentioned…""Huh?"Although Frank assured them that he was not going to scold them, the nurse studied Frank's expression gingerly to ensure that he was not angry.Screeching her head, she then said softly, "She's quite famous, Mr. Lawrence… and she worked for…""Zamri Daily!" Amber, the other nurse, quickly butted in."Oh, right!" Kali, the first nurse, nodded. "She's a special correspondent from Zamri Hospital, but we heard that she ended up the victim of a hit-and-run behind our hospital. And it was by a truck, too! It's terrible!""Yeah…" Amber sighed. "And that reminds me—the chief is personally operating on her! But everyone's saying that the journalist isn't going to live…""A hit and run behind the hospital? By a truck?"Frank was frowning, sensing something wrong just then.It was late at night, but it had to take place in an alle

Once the epinephrine was injected, the heart monitor started beeping faintly again."More blood infusion!" Winter shouted, her voice hoarse after working for so long."Alright, just leave it to me."Seeing that, Frank strode up and took the scalpel from Winter.And seeing him, Winter breathed a sigh of relief, wobbling and ultimately dropping on her rear. "I was so… useless.""Leave the moping for later. On your feet—I need help here," Frank said with a hint of sterness. Winter quickly scrambled to her feet, standing near him as she explained, "I'm done with every other part, but her heart… I'm just afraid…"Frank could see what she meant right away—a tiny bone fragment was cutting into the patient's left ventricle, and blood was trickling out around it.The bleeding only increased as the patient's heart continued pumping, and the only option was to extract the bone fragment.However, that was no easy task. Extracting an object from a puncture wound in the heart could easil

However, was it really possible?Winter was holding on firmly to her own shaking palm—Frank would only have half a second to do the unthinkable.If he even twitched his finger, that would mean death for the patient. Hence, as everyone in the operating room stared, wide-eyed, Frank closed his eyes to still himself. Then, when he reached a serenity one could mistake for death, he slowly drew out two silver needles, holding them between his fingers.Lub dub…Jolie's heart was giving out again—she did not have much time left."Phew…"Exhaling lengthily, Frank's gaze sharpened in the instant Jolie's heart pounded.Swish!Frank moved with lightning speed, his hand a blur as he pulled out the bone fragment lodged in Jolie's left ventricle.Everyone had been staring at the screen and only saw a fuzziness, but not how Frank pulled out the bone fragment.And the instant Frank pulled it out, he inserted both needles he was holding into the puncture wound, snapping, "Freeze!"Pure v

"Thank you… you saved my wife! Thank you…"After Frank and Winter escorted Jolie to the ICU, a tall man stopped them to kowtow at them.Beside him, a boy around five did the same in front of Frank."P-Please, you don't have to do this…"As both father and son struck heads against the floor audibly, drawing quite a crowd, Winter quickly pulled them to their feet and assured them, "We're just doing our jobs, and your wife has a fearsome will to survive too. This is really unnecessary…""Just doing their jobs…"The attendings watching in the distance were speechless, as they were well aware of Jolie's condition.Everyone attending with authority in their respective fields were there, but none of them were brave enough to take up that surgery.They therefore knew how terrible Jolie's condition was and that she had a 0.1% chance of survival.And yet, Winter's young brother took that chance and converted it into success.The skill and determination alone left the other attendings b

As Frank pondered, a cool voice spoke on the recording, "Nope. There's no one around here. Maybe someone from the hospital dropped it by accident.""Dropped it? I see…" Yannick replied.At the same time, Mr. Queen was watching Frank, his knuckles clenching and easing as he said urgently, "I knew something was up when I heard their conversation. I just didn't think that they'd go that far… But since you know him, the recording could serve as evidence!"Frank waved off Mr. Queen, however—he wanted to listen to the rest of the call and find out what those people were up to."Now listen here—keep looking. We need to make sure that there's no one else other than us here."You know what would happen if we're exposed—you, me, and everyone else here will become expendable assets for the commissioner and Carlo Group. None of us will survive!"Hearing that, Frank mused, "The commissioner… Carlo Group…"He was especially sensitive toward those names recently.He also quickly realized that

Moreover, Frank would really not start a war against the Zamri commissioner just yet either, since fighting important government officials would always be a risky move.Naturally, he could use his own connections and his status as Governor Quill's maternal grandson to rein in the Zamri commissioner.However, Frank did not like using his connections to bully anyone, not to mention that things were still frosty between him and Governor Quill.With that in mind, Frank wondered if he should take up Stanley Durban's offer to be partners and assassinate the Zamri commissioner to be done with it.However, that was not going to be an easy task either.Nonetheless, as Winter and Frank arrived at the spacious lobby, they found it congested by over a hundred fully-armed officers.Most of the patients were either chased out or kept confined to a corner, while a pompous blond brat sat with his legs on the receptionist desk.The two nurses there were on their knees, gingerly massaging his leg
