Chapter 1100
There were only three people left in the corridor. Linus sat with his back straight and his hands on his knees.
The cold winter winds flowed into the corridor through the window. None of them moved. The atmosphere became even more chilling.
Linus broke the silence. “This ambush. Someone from the inside leaked information.”
Ethan nodded. “I think so, too. Or else no one would be able to hurt
Mr. Heath.”
Linus’ piercing gaze fell on both of them. “If I ever found out who the mole is, the person will die a very painful death.”
He was clearly warning Ethan and Yale.
Ethan stood with his hands behind his back. He was frightened by Linus’ suspicion. He met Linus gaze and said, “So, you think I did it?”
Linus said meaningfully, “I’m not suspecting the two of you. Rather, everyone is a suspect right now. I truly hope it’s not either one of you.”
The struggle between Yale and Ethan had become completely transparent. They were attacking each other in the open.
And then something happened to Mason.
Regular executives wouldn’t even know his schedule. So, it was perfectly reasonable for Linus to suspect the two of them.
Ethan declared openly, “Where would I get the time to do such a
thing? I was recently gravely injured as well.
“Besides, Mr. Heath is my mentor. I would never do anything to hurt
him.
“I wouldn’t even be able to bring Vanessa over if she wasn’t in the city helping me clear up the remaining toxins in my system. The question is, how did you find Dr. Gatsby, Yale.”
Yale frantically explained, “I owe my life to Mr. Heath. I would never betray him. As for how I found Dr. Gatsby, I met him at a convention last month out of pure coincidence and found out where he lived.
“As soon as I received news that Mr. Heath was injured, so I went straight to look for him. I didn’t know he had a problem with his
hands.
“I need to be held responsible for the failed surgery. I’m willing to accept any punishment.”
“I won’t lay blame on anyone without proof. I won’t rest until I know” who the culprit is. I’m just reminding the two of you.
“I don’t care what you want to do between yourselves, but don’t harm my family. Or else I won’t show you any mercy.”
Linus put the two of them in their place. Then, the three of them fell
silent.
Olivia slept for a few hours and woke up the following morning.
She asked Colin about Jack’s condition. She was relieved to hear that Jack was no longer in critical condition.
Then, she told Colin to bring Jack away. Ethan had already found her
home. Given his sharp senses, he probably sensed something wrong. It wasn’t safe for Jack to stay there anymore.
As expected, Ethan was informed as soon as Colin brought Jack out
of the villa.
He went to a corner and picked up the call.
“Yes?”
“Mr. Miller, it’s as you expected. Some people came out of Mrs. Miller’s villa. One was heavily injured and was carried into a car.”
Ethan took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He hadn’t expected to find such a big fish like that.
“Remain cautious as you tail them. Do not alert them.”
“Understood.”
Last night, he could already guess that the person in Olivia’s house was heavily injured. If that person is Jack, how did he get injured?
Things were getting interesting.
“Mr. Heath is awake.”
Ethan snuffed out his cigarette and walked over slowly.
Olivia was also informed and escorted over.
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
