「Country A, Imperial City.」
George Stanford was under 24-hour observation in the ICU, and even now, he was still in critical condition.
Upon arriving in Country A, Sophie Sullivan was taken back to the manor by Thomas Shannon. The first thing she had to do was visit the dical office to see Old Mr. Standford.
Looking at George Stanford, who was unconscious and still in critical condition, Sophie was furious. She questioned Thomas Shannon, "What the hell happened?"
"Do you know about Old Mr. Standford’s patient dical records?"
"What’s wrong with his precious dical records?" Sophie asked suspiciously.
What did Old Mr. Standford’s injury have to do with dical records?
Thomas Shannon lowered his head and lit a cigarette. He narrowed his long eyes, took a deep drag of smoke, and then said, "One of his forr colleagues from the hospital called him. They said they had found a patient dical record of his and asked him to co get it in person. Old Mr. Standford went. The nurse, who was out for revenge, injected him with dicine and fled the scene. My people found Old Mr. Standford and brought him back."
This explanation was reasonable.
Since the nurse was out for revenge, she would naturally use her dical knowledge to inject Old Mr. Standford with the simplest drugs.
But... Sophie always felt that things weren’t that simple.
Her intuition told her that there was definitely sothing fishy about it.
If sothing happened to Old Mr. Standford at this critical mont, then she...
At this thought, Sophie’s expression darkened.
"What, you doubt ?" Thomas Shannon exhaled a smoke ring, his sexy thin lips curling into a mischievous and alluring smile.
"That’s not it."
Sophie took a step forward and looked up, her beautiful eyes filled with a soft smile. "Thomas Shannon, if I ask you to grant one request, would you agree?"
"What request?" Thomas Shannon asked leisurely.
Sophie’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, the smile on her lips deepening. She reached out, gently stroking his shirt collar, and looked at him intently. "Didn’t you say you like ? Show your sincerity now."
"What’s in it for ?"
If he showed his sincerity, what about hers? When would he see it?
Sophie frowned. He still wanted to see sincerity?
However, this didn’t stump Sophie. She smiled faintly and said, "Your reward is... you can gain my affection."
This reward was indeed tempting!
"You said it yourself. No regrets."
"No regrets."
With Thomas Shannon’s promise, Sophie smiled contentedly. Suddenly, her beautiful eyes shimred with cunning. "Why don’t you ask what I want to do?"
"Are you willing to tell?" Thomas Shannon asked with a leisurely smile.
She didn’t look like she was about to do anything good. Based on past experience, she was probably concocting so little sche to prank soone right now.
Sophie proudly turned and walked a few steps. Then she turned back, looked at him, and said, "I’m going to pretend to be a tiger by borrowing the power of a fox."
Leaving these words behind, Sophie quickly left the dical office.
She wanted to see if the truth behind Old Mr. Standford’s injury was as her intuition suggested. Whether it was or not, she wouldn’t let Minimus Hart off easily until she found out the truth.
She returned to the castle, her deanor imposing, and scanned her surroundings, but she didn’t see Minimus Hart.
She stopped a maid standing nearby. "Call Minimus Hart for ."
"Maniac, what do you want with Sister Minnie?"
Sophie sat down on the sofa. Hearing this, she smirked. "You have no right to know."
