Jareth rushed Thaddeus, his injuries severe and blood loss extensive, to the most topâtier hospital in the capital of Country T
Jareth was not a man prone to tears, but watching his childhood friend, as pale as a sheet, being wheeled into the emergency room, his heart wenched. Tears welled up unbidden in eyes, only to be hastily wiped away.
âMr. Farbowenâ
The sound of a crisp voice behind him made Janeth tum around
âYou are?
He had a vague impression of the man was the same man that Evadno had brought to the upscale wine party at Abernathy Hotel
âChanel right. You can call me Dr. Bright?
Before he could finish his sentence, Chasel, dressed in surgical scrubs, brushed past Jareth, his voice steady and calm, âYour friendâs injuries are in good hands.â
âYou Youâre a doctor?â Jarthâs eyes widened in surprise. Werenât you in Elmsworth? How did you end up here?!!
âCassius called me over.â
At the memon of Cassius, the man who both frustrated and intrigued him, Chanelâs eyebrows fumowed, his heart pounding. He didnât tell me the specifics, only that he was undertaking a dangerous task and might need medical assistance. So, Iâve been waiting here since last night.â
With a smug chuckle, Chase added, âI almost left, but itâs a good thing I didnât. Without me, thereâs no way to help
Damnit, Cassius!
Even after getting him wrapped around his finger, he still called for his help. Chase, renowned in the foreign gay community and pursued by countless men, was reduced to a lowick fool in the face of Cassius, the refined and reserved man.
As Chasel was about to push the doors to the emergency room, Jareth hollered, âHey! Can trust you? My tendâs life is in your hands
Without turning round, Chase simply replied. âHmph, Dr. Eve isnât the only skilled doctor in the worldâ

The situation was becoming increasingly dee!
Seeing that they couldnât return to Emsworth for the Ume being, Evadne decided to keep wig over Thaddeus the hospital after loksing Star island.
Elvis was keeping a tight watch on Ward in one car, while Exedre and Cassius were in another.
On the way, Evadne clutched Cassiusâs hand tightly. He placed her cold hand over his warm heart, his gaze filled with worry as he looked at her pale face.
Tvadre Cassius called her nome softly.
She looked up, her swollen eyes brimming
tears as she stared Hankly at him
It felt as though her soul had left her b*dy to be with Thaddeus, leaving behind an empty shell
Cassius sighed, unbuttoning his shirt to remove his silver cross n*ecklace that heâd won for many years.
*When Thaddeus wakes up. give this to him.â
Placing the n*ecklace in her hands, Cassius closed her fingers around it.
âCassius, this is? Evadneâs eyes widened in surprise
âThis n*ecklace isnât worth much money, but it means a lot to me. Iâve worn it for over a decade, and itâs algays protected me in times of danger. Right now all I can do is pray and hope that Thaddeus is strong enough to bull through.â
As Evadne started crying once more, Cassius comforted her, âDonât cry, Exedre. Once Thaddeus wakes up, treat him well. At least, donât cause him any more troubleâ
The Ashboume family arrived at the hospital entering the underground car park where Jareth was already waiting
As Evache stepped out of the car she ran towards Jareth, her eyes wide with and ety, âHowâs Thaddeus?!â
Janeth replied, âHeâs in surgery now hiring operated on by someone you know,â
Do you mean Chase? Evadingâs mind was as sharp as a blade, cutting through the vague Insinuations
She turned to look at Candus
Cassius met her guk calmly his eyes a well of unreadable thoughts.
âYeah, heâs been in there for almost three hours.â
Jarethâs worry was clear in his voice, he couldnât help but ramble on âExadina, I heard that Dr. Bright is a relative of Suri, can we really trust him? He seems so nonchalant and contre, like a young man who spends his days playing video games. If heâs not up to the task, maybe you should take over. Didnât you do Thadâs operation?â
Evadeâs silence was deafening.
âPlaying video games, really?â
Eles took a drag from his cigarette,ressing his muscular arm on the car window âYour Fairhaven family education seems to be failing.â
Whatever, as long as you get the point,â Jereth mumbled not wanting to argue with Evadeâs elder brother.
âDc Brightâs medical skills are not inferior to Dr. Eveâs.â
Capsiusâs words, cold as ice, cut through the tension, âAs a member of the ilustrious Fairhaven family. Mt Fairhaven, you should understand that thereâs always someone better out there, right?â
Evade and Elvis exchanged looks.
Was Cassius defending Chasel?
Jareth, being the eldest grandson of Barry Farmaven, was used to a life of luxury and privilege. He didnât usually pay attention to the subtleties of conversation
But even he could sense the coldness in Cassius eyes. He quickly tried to defuse the situation, âI was just asking if President Ashbourne has brought him in, then he must be an excellent doctor Iâm just worrying over nothing.â
âMr. Fairhaven, Dr. Bright is better than me, so you donât have to worry. He will succeedâ
Evadeâs voice broke as she spoke, her eyes red, âOnce Thandes gets through this still need Dr. Bright help. Heâs an expert in neurology, he should be able to help with Thaddeusâs lingering issues.â
As she spoke, her vice got softer and softer, filled with a heartbreaking qui
Janeth was left speechless
He was not good with comforting words and was afraid of saying something wrong and making things worse
Jareth rolled up his sleeves in fury his veins bulging with anger. âIs that bastard in the car? Before we hand him over make sure he gets what he deseries!â
Just as he finished speaking a row of cars drove into the underground parking lot, heading straight towards them.
The screeching sound of tires echoed in the dim light, a sense of impending dooming the air.
âBad news,â Cassius said grimly pulling Evadne closet
âYes, very bad newsâ Evadne agreed, her eyes cold as she watched the people getting out of the cars.
A man in his fifties in a crisp police uniform stepped out, his rank Indicating a high ranking official
Behind him, a group of people in Country T police uniforms followed. They were all from the local police force.
These men surrounded Evadne and the others, the atmosphere growing ense
Elvis and Janeth were on high alert, ready for a fight.
âMmmâMmmâr
Ward, bound and gagged, recognized the highâranking offal. He knew he was here to rescue him and tried to call out for help, writhing in the car like a trapped worm
Without a word, Elvis pulled out a slim dagger and plunged it into wardâs thigh.
Wardâs face twisted in pain, but he couldnât scream, he could only convulse in agony.
âYou better behaveâ Elvis wamed as he pulled out the dagger. Het a cigarette and said, âOtherwise, even within this car I can think of a hundred ways to torture you Tortum is my
Ward shivered in fear, forgetting about the pain. He was now convinced that the young master of the Ashbourne family was the most dangerous, a devilishly charming and unpredictable man.
âWe received a report of a significant hostage under your control the highâracking official said, âadvise you to release the hostage immediately, surrender your weapons, and come with us for questioning. Otherwise, we will take serious action against you. Our countryâs laws are stringent, and you wonât be able to bear the consequences of your actions!â
Evadne laughed, âStrict lawa? Are you joking?
The official looked at the beautiful woman and sneered, âYouâre very bold young lady. Are you not afraid of spending the rest of your life in jalâ
Ward, listening to the conversation outside, couldnât help but smirk
âLaugh? Laugh at this!
Elvis landed a punch on Wardâs face, causing him to bleed profusely from the nose.
âThe one who should be rotting in jail is your âhostage,â Evadne said her eyes filled with hatred. âWard has been smuggling weapons, and drugs in your country, committing all kinds of crimes. Instead of arresting him, youâre alding and abetting him. And you dare to talk about justice and strict laws?â
Jareth blinked, âDamn, thatâs wall said! Keep goingâ
The official was fuming, his eyes round with anger.
âBut what Ward does in your country is none of my business. All I can do is sympathize with your citizens, who have to live in such a corrupt society Evadne added with a cold smile.
Even clenched her fists in fury. âBut he killed an innocent girl in my country. He has to come back with me and face the music An eye for an eye! I donât care whose lapdog he is, or whoâs pulling his jarings I have to take Ward back, dead or alive!
The Generalâs eyes were bling with anger. This man is one of ours, from Country Tâs up to our law enforcement to arrest and interrogate him! Even if he has to serve time, itâll be on our turf Youâre not cops, you have no right to lay a finger on him! And another thing youâve killed several of our island residents in Star Island According to our laws, you should all be hanged. Youâre dreaming if you think you can just take someone. Get them!â
At the General command, several police officers rushed forward, handcuffs in hand, ready to arrest them all..
Cassius and Jareth immediately reacted stepping in front of Evadne without hesitation.
Meanwhile, Elvis, who was sitting in the car watching Ward, had a stern look in his eyes. He had a gun in his hand, ready to rush out to protect his sister and brother at an
moment
As soon as one of the police officers reached for Cassius, Cassius snorted coldly and suddenly grabbed his wrist, then flung him ove
The police officer didnât even have time to react before he was thrown into the air like heâd sl*pped on a banana peel. He landed heavily on the ground, his arm dislocated and his coccyx fractured
âDamn, that was cool Jarethâs eyes were wide with admiration
When he got back to Elmworth safely, he was definitely going to ask President Ashbourne how to master that move.
âYou! You dare to attack the police?
The beneral was shocked and furious. After all, assaulting a police officer was a serious crime in any country. He roared âEveryone, get them! No matter what it takes, w
have take them into custody! Gor
The situation was about to spiral out of control as everyone rushed forward.
Evadeâs fierce eyes were bloodshot, a raging fire burning in her chest. She was ready to cause a ruckus
Deepâbeep beep-!
Suddenly the sound of a car horn echoed through the parking lot.
The chaotic scene paused, even Evadne and Cassius were confused
In the dim light, a topâofâtheârange limo, with a silver roof and black b*dy, slowly approached.
Every nerve was on edge.
