For the first time, Baron Lawrence felt he didnât want to face her, fearing that he would see her cooperation was just an act, and that heâd be unable to contain his anger, potentially hurting her.
He suddenly pulled out and stood up, hurriedly saying, âRest for a while, Iâll go and call the doctor for you.â
âBaronâ¦â Enna could tell he was acting strangely, but before she could stop him, Baron Lawrence had already taken long strides towards the door and quickly left.
Just a few minutes after he left, Scott Harris arrived with a cell phone in hand. Seeing that Enna was awake, he was overjoyed, âMiss Clark, youâre awake?â âYes, just now.â Enna revealed a smile.
âWhereâs Lord Baron? Why isnât he here?â Scott Harris happily walked over to her.
âHe said he was going to call the doctor.â Enna tilted her head, âWhy were you looking for him, Mr. Harris?â
âItâs thisâ¦â He wasnât sure if he should say it.
At that moment, the phone in his hand rang again.
Ennaâs sharp eyes caught that the caller ID showed Michelle Lewis.
Auntie?
Enna stared and asked, âMr. Harris, whose phone is this?â
âItâs Jasmine Clarkâs.â
Why would her aunt call Jasmine?
Enna frowned, remembering how Jasmine and her aunt had conspired to sell her to the mayorâs son last time, her eyes darkened and she said, âMr. Harris, can I take this call?â
Scott Harris hesitated for a moment and gave her the phone.
Enna picked up the call just before it hung up.
Before she could say anything, Michelleâs voice was already on the other end, âJasmine, you finally answered the phone! When will you give me the 150 thousand dollars you promised? This is the fourth day, donât tell me you still havenât planned on giving me the money. If you delay me further, Iâll expose everything! By then, everyone will know the true faces of President Clark and his wife, and youâll be the daughter of murderers!â
ââ¦â What did that mean?
Enna had a feeling something was wrong.
On the other end, Michelle was furious that âJasmineâ didnât respond, so she threatened, âJasmine, do you really think I wouldnât dare to reveal it? Iâm going to contact the media now and tell them how your parents forged a cooperation with the doctor to murder my sister!â
Ennaâs face suddenly turned pale, her hand slipping and dropping the phone on the floor, shattering it.
Seeing her change of color, Scott Harris was alarmed and quickly rushed to the bedside to ask, âMiss Clark, whatâs wrong? Are you feeling unwell?â Ennaâs mind was completely blank, and she couldnât hear anything.
All she could think of was what Michelle had said.
Her mother had died during childbirth because Jacob Clark had bribed the doctor to murder her?!
Thisâ¦
Enna clenched the bedsheet beneath her, her teeth chattering, her eyes welling up in red as she covered her mouth. It seemed like only this way could she retain some sanity and process the news.
Just then, a bodyguard in black hurried in and whispered something in Scott
Harrisâ ear. Scott Harris let him leave, hesitated for a moment, and asked Enna,
âMiss Clark, President Clark wants to see you. Do you want to meet him?â
Before this phone call, Enna wouldnât have wanted to see Jacob Clark. At this moment, however, in her shock, an unstoppable rage arose in her heart. She wanted to know what kind of man could be so ruthless and terrifying.. Gritting her teeth, she said, âMeet!â
