Chapter 211

Why was he here?!Portly, one of Winston's guys and a runaway, was not with Winston just a moment ago. Now, he was rushing at them with a knife! The knife's point was so close, and Zara's first thought was to shove Yosef out of the way before backing away herself. Yosef seemed to have guessed what she was planning. He grabbed her hand and yanked her behind him. Then, he tried to kick the knife out of Portly's hand. They were too close, and it all happened too fast. The kick was not done at the right angle, and the knife only moved a tiny bit. Portly went crazy, slashing his knife all over the place! In a split second, Zara saw the knife plunging into Yosef's side! Her eyes widened in shock as Portly pulled the knife out. He was not done yet. Zara acted fast. She swung her bag with its metal decorations straight at Portly's face!The hit made Portly grab his face, slowing him down just enough for Yosef to kick him away and for the bodyguards to jump in.Portly could not get to

Zara's eyes went straight to the gash on Yosef's belly.It was a mess with all the blood.He was pale from losing so much blood, which made his dark brows and eyes stand out starkly.Zara spoke up, "Ms. Schmidt is really hurt. It makes sense that Professor Schmidt went to her first."Yosef's eyes scanned her face, his voice icy. "Always defending him, aren't you?"The doctor came over with a needle full of numbing medicine. "Let's not talk now. It's time to stitch you up."Zara bit her lip and nodded, holding her breath.The doctor was worried about Yosef. "He's still bleeding. We might have internal damage here. Get the OR ready."The doctors knew who Yosef was and were extra careful. "Mr. Webb, you need surgery right now."Charvi, who was right by Yosef's side, was agitated and scared. "Please, doctor. You have to make Mr. Webb better!"Yosef lifted his hand, telling them to be quiet. The nurses were about to wheel him to surgery, and he was ready.Once Zara got her shot,

Yosef's face stiffened. "You saved me just to get rid of those photos?""Why else would I do that?" Zara was worried Yosef might not keep his promise. "You wouldn't forget a favor, right?"Yosef let out a huff, his expression growing cold. He turned away from her and held his belly where it hurt. "Just sit tight. After you're out of here, I'll take care of it."Even though she only had to be in the hospital for two days, the thought of being in the same ward with Yosef for 48 hours straight made Zara really uneasy.She even considered asking the nurse if she could leave today.Seemingly reading her mind, Yosef said in a chilly voice, "Most of our team is here. You want to walk out alone and be an easy mark for Winston?"Zara bit her lip, feeling frustrated. She eventually dropped the idea.The mention of Winston made her anxious again. "That hand... Is it from the missing body?"Yosef closed his eyes and nodded.Zara's face went white. "The police dogs searched the entire Apri

Yosef looked upset, and Zara did not feel like saying more. Her arm hurt a lot, so she pressed the button to call the nurse.The nurse arrived and saw how much pain Zara was in. "Stitches are bound to hurt, but if it's too much, I can get you some painkillers."Zara nodded. "That would be great, thanks."She could handle the pain in her mind no matter how tough or stressful it got.Dealing with the pain in her body was a different story, however. She was not as good at dealing with that.Maybe it was because heartache was something she just had to push through, even when it felt like too much. A body ache, however, could usually be fixed with medicine. She would not put up with it if she did not have to.One could not always pretend to be strong, but eventually, it would just be too much.After Zara took the painkillers the nurse gave her, she felt sleepy.The nurse glanced at Yosef in the next bed and asked, "Are you in pain too? Do you want some medicine?"Yosef just said, "

Yosef did not pick up. He hung up and texted: [What's up?]Ophite was not hurt and had been taking care of some business. He had just left the police station.Winston claimed he was just casual buddies with Portly and Lanky and had not been in touch with them for ages. He also said he had no clue why they would do such a thing. Hearing what Ophite told him, Yosef chuckled. "Yeah, right."Everyone knew Winston was fibbing. The real snag was the lack of hard proof that Winston was the one pulling the strings. With nothing to pin on him, the police had to let him go. Ophite said, "Yosef, this guy might not seem like much, but he's trickier than we thought.""He's good with dogs," Yosef noted. "Even the undercover police officer saw it.""He said he just whistled for fun, that it wasn't meant for the dogs. He's not from Apricot Village, and those are Apricot Village's mutts. They naturally wouldn't listen to him. "He's doing everything to wash his hands of it. Right now, we real

Zara did not catch what they were arguing about, but they both fell silent when they noticed she was awake.She looked at Yosef and then at Stanley by her bedside. She tried to sit up.Her left hand was hurt, so she could not push herself up. Stanley quickly got up, gently supported her shoulder, and propped a pillow behind her to make her more comfortable.His expression softened as he asked, "How do you feel? Are you in pain?"Zara shook her head. "I took some painkillers. I'm okay. What brings you here? Is Ms. Schmidt's injury bad?"Stanley answered, "Her surgery went well. She's still out from the anesthesia and hasn't woken up yet. I've got a nurse with her, and they'll let me know as soon as she wakes."Zara's brows creased slightly.Stanley figured she was worried about Melanie and wanted him to go back to her. She probably wanted to tell him not to fuss over her.Before Zara could say a word, he said, "Melanie's ward is right here on this floor. I'm just a few steps awa

Zara burst into a giggle. "I'm not a fan of candy. Does chocolate work just the same?"Yosef chuckled.Stanley paused and then called out, "Zara.""I've told you over and over, I'm okay. Why won't you believe me, Professor Schmidt? It's like you want something to be wrong." Zara paused, thinking for a moment. She continued, "Should I make a vow? To prove I'm alright?"She did not want to spill the beans, and Stanley was at a loss.Zara then shooed him off to check on Melanie.Stanley held his ground for a few minutes but finally let out a sigh and stood up."I'll bring dinner for you tonight. Chocolate, right? I'll bring that too.""Thanks."The moment Stanley left the ward, his warm smile vanished. It was replaced by a cold, serious look.Yosef, relaxing against the headboard with a smirk, seemed in high spirits as he eyed Zara. "Why not ask Professor Schmidt for help? Think he can't do anything? Or scared he'll learn about our past?""It was neither," Zara replied, lying b

In the end, Yosef was rushed back into surgery to treat his wound again.Ophite hurried in, bombarding Charvi with questions. Was it not just a cut on the skin? Why did he need another surgery?Charvi, looking troubled, answered, "I'm not sure. Mr. Webb said I didn't need to stay in the ward, so I've been outside all this while.""So, you're saying his wound just split open while he was resting in his ward?" Ophite pressed on, "Wasn't he by himself in there? What was in the ward?"Charvi hesitated. "Mr. Webb and Ms. Lowry... were in the ward together."Ophite could not believe it.He knew that Zara had always been under Yosef's control, like a trapped fox under a tiger's paw. What could have happened to make his wound reopen like that?Lost in thought, Ophite went to the ward door and peered through the window at Zara.She was propped up in bed, staring at her phone with a small frown. She looked worried.Ophite was a little relieved. He had been worried about Yosef and was su

Winston tried to stand up, but Nord slammed his foot onto Winston's chest. Winston winced in pain, feeling like his ribs were cracking.Winston gasped. "You... You should at least tell me your names if you're going to be so bold!"Stanley spoke in an even tone, propping the steel pipe against a rock. "Do you think you can just do whatever you want because you've been in charge for too long?""You're like a frog in a well, thinking you own the whole sky. You think you can do anything and mess with anyone. You don't know how small you really are."Winston felt a chill. The man speaking so calmly was scarier than the one standing on him.His face went white, and his voice shook. "If you... If you dare hurt me, I swear you'll regret ever being born!"Nord shoved Winston's leg into the sharp angle where a steel pipe met a stone. Without a second thought, Stanley stepped down hard on the pipe. With a terrible crunch, Winston's shinbone snapped, and his screams filled the alley.Stanle

Chapter 220

Wilder left Winston's place and headed straight to the hospital.He bumped into Yosef in the hallway, who had just gotten his wound stitched up and was being wheeled back to his ward by a nurse.Ophite was walking alongside the bed, chatting with Yosef. Wilder greeted them, "Hey, Yosef, Ophite."Getting a closer look at Yosef's pale face, Wilder frowned and tsked. "Are you hurt that bad? I guess I should've been tougher.""What do you mean 'tougher'?" Ophite asked and then realized something. "Did you go see Winston?""Sure did. I took care of our problem in Apricot Village." Wilder handed a paper to Charvi with a grin. "They'll be packing up and leaving tonight."Ophite got curious. "How'd you pull that off?""Wasn't hard. I just made him kneel."They were right outside the hospital ward by then, and Zara could hear them talking from inside.Wilder added, "I was a bit late, though. Someone had just broken Winston's leg, and I have no clue who."This meant Winston had knelt d
