He had always been someone who liked to talk nonsense.
âYou know, when the medical staff rescued her, her face was all pale. The first thing they did was to oxygenate her. Also, Mr. Nolan was stuck in the elevator with her too. Fortunately, heâs fine,â he elaborated.
âWhat did you say, uncle? Lucas was also inside?â Hera was initially listening with gusto, but she was quickly baffled when she heard the unexpected mention of the manâs name.
Hearing that, her face lost its color as her mind became a mess.
Why was he inside too?
âYes! Nobody knows why Mr. Nolan was there too but heâs fine! Dr. Berry, on the other hand, is still in the emergency room!â
Anthony let out a sigh, âDad, sheâs Dr. Ashlyn, the woman who performed your surgery!â
âSheâs such a good child. I wonder how she is now? Please visit her for me later.â Bob held the cup.
âIâve always taken a liking to her. She seems familiar.â
âGrandpa, you donât even know her. All she did was merely perform your surgery. Besides, thatâs her job as a doctor. You donât need to thank her,â uttered Hera angrily.
He cares for her as if sheâs his granddaughter! Ask her to come to visit you like I am then!
The old man frowned as he was displeased with her attitude. âOther doctorsâ surgery isnât as good as Dr. Berryâs. What does a young girl like you know?â
âFine. I donât know anything,â she replied and stood up. âIâll take my leave first. Rest well, grandpa. Iâll come back in two days.â She was only here to inquire about everything, and now that she did, she had no reason to stay here any longer.
Bob gave her a look before responding, âOkay.â
Hera left the ward and headed for the emergency section.
Uncle said sheâs still in the emergency room. Is she dead yet?
She had never shown herself in this matter from the beginning to the end.
Although there was surveillance in this hospital, it was all Jaytonâs doing.
It had nothing to do with her at all.
Even if people were to investigate, they would not find out she was involved.
The only person they would find was Jayton. That man was desperate for her. He would not rat her out no matter what.
Actually, itâll be easier if he disappears.
He had already bought a plane ticket to the United States. That way, he could flee and hide from the limelight.
Hera had promised him that they would get together relationship after this matter was over.
Hearing that, the man got carried away as he beamed with delight.
Therefore, Lucas would not find anything even if he were to do a thorough investigation.
He indeed has so much power and influence in the country, but itâs not the same abroad. Jayton already ran out of the country. Letâs see how heâll investigate. If Ashlyn were the only one in the elevator, I bet nobody would care about what happened. However, Lucas was also inside! Heâll definitely look into this issue! Luckily, I already arranged for Jaytonâs escape over the phone call earlier.
At this moment, she had already arrived in front of the emergency room.
Sure enough, she saw Lucas from a distance. The manâs face was red and swollen, and his lips were a bit torn with blood oozing out. Despite that, he still looked as handsome, maybe even more so.
He was leaning against the wall with an emotionless expression.
âLucas, I didnât know youâd be here,â Hera muttered in surprise as she stood right in front of him.
Lucasâ cold eyes narrowed at her when he thought of Spencerâs report regarding the drug incident.
His mind drifted back to their childhood when she was a sweet girl with a tough personality, even at a young age.
The Hera back then was completely different now.
She was now a money-minded and good-for-nothing woman who was greedy for personal gain, with a pretentious angelic front. However, she would continuously and cautiously do things behind his back.
