"Alright then." Damian Knight nodded and said nothing more.
Without Sumr having to say it, he knew this treatnt probably took a lot out of her, and she needed to rest.
It’s fine if she doesn’t co.
"By the way." Assistant Shelton rembered his task, taking a stack of docunts from his briefcase and handing them to Damian Knight, saying, "Young Master Ross asked to give this to you, and he said, said that once things are settled, he’ll co to apologize."
Damian Knight was slightly surprised to hear this.
What did Isaac Ross do, that he feels the need to co personally and apologize given their relationship?
Damian Knight reached out to take the docunts and opened them to review.
It didn’t take long for Damian Knight to grasp the general situation.
No wonder Isaac Ross said he needed to co and apologize; the Midnight Coffee House incident was related to their family.
He closed the docunts and stood up, saying to Assistant Shelton, "Announce to the dia that we will hold a conference in half an hour. Also, ask The Vanguard from the police departnt to co over."
Assistant Shelton was stunned; The Vanguard is a special unit in Crestfall, specifically handling the dark affairs of the elite, directly under the top tier of the Judicial Departnt, feared by no one.
Once they have their eyes on sothing, no matter how deeply hidden, it will be uncovered, making all prominent families in the nation wary of this special unit.
Nevertheless, aside from The Vanguard mbers, no one knew Damian Knight was its leader.
Of course, Damian Knight didn’t want people to know, so he had Assistant Shelton summon them.
Assistant Shelton agreed and went out to handle it.
As he walked, he wondered if this incident was orchestrated by a prominent family to fra Midnight Coffee House?
That’s truly reckless.
...
Crestfall First Hospital.
Sumr Monroe confird several tis that the patient could manage until the press conference, then she gave a few more instructions to the attending doctor, turned, and left, preparing to return to Stanton Manor.
Calculating the ti, it had been three hours since she had been left behind at the hospital by Henry Stanton and Stella Monroe, yet Henry Stanton hadn’t contacted her, suggesting he’d truly forgotten about her.
Sumr’s lips curved coldly as she stepped forward to flag down a car.
Isaac Ross volunteered, "Boss, I’ll give you a ride."
"No need," Sumr shook her head, declining, "The patient needs you to keep an eye on things, I’ll take a cab myself."
"Then I’ll leave my driver for you."
"No need, I have another place to go, it’s more convenient for to take a cab."
"Alright then." Seeing Sumr’s determination, Isaac Ross didn’t insist and turned toward the hospital.
There were many taxis at the hospital entrance, and Sumr soon flagged down one.
Just as she opened the car door to get in, Doctor Chapman’s voice rang out—
"Hey!"
Sumr turned unhappily.
She saw Doctor Chapman brazenly approaching to question, "Where did you get the antidote from?"
"I didn’t take it," Sumr corrected, "I made it myself."
"Yeah right! How could just a young girl like you brew an antidote in such a short ti? If you tell the source of the antidote, I can introduce you to Claire. You know Claire, right? From a family of traditional dicine, Claire Woodward, Cathaysia’s youngest and most gifted doctor skilled in both Chinese and Western dicine."
Sumr raised her eyes and glanced at Doctor Chapman as if looking at a fool, saying, "No need, I don’t want to et her."
With that, she got into the car and slamd the door shut, completely cutting off Doctor Chapman’s voice.
"Driver, to Ross Psychiatric Hospital."
"Alright!" The driver pressed the accelerator, and the car sped away, leaving Doctor Chapman in a cloud of exhaust.
"You!" Doctor Chapman stomped in place, cursing intensely, "Ungrateful brat!"
Just then, Doctor Chapman’s phone rang.
