Chapter 1303


    Gordon nced at her before shifting his gaze elsewhere, "I''m hurt. I need to rest in the car for a bit"


    “Uncle Bard''s wife is still alive." Arabe didn''t hide anything. Looking straight into his eyes, she


    enunciated each word, "She''s with Alexander. Uncle Bard has gone to demand her release. To prevent


    their people from storming the hospital, I need to go there and watch over Grandpa.


    “Mrs. Griffith is still alive? Can it be true?” Gordon was taken aback. After all the effort back in the day,


    scouring high and low, and they hadn''t found her, only for her to end up with Alexander.


    It looked like tonight, it wasn''t just Alexander who would pay the price, but all his men would be skinned


    alive.


    Hiding such a big secret from the boss, they really must be tired of living.


    “Ms. Be, let me take you to the hospital," Gordon said as he came back to reality, offering to help.


    “There''s no need, Uncle Bard asked you to rest."


    “An extra assistant is always helpful, especially tonight. It''s not like any other night. Your Grandpa''s life


    is the top priority, we can''t afford any oversights. Let me apany you, and I''ll also call in some extra


    help to ensure your and Mr. Darren''s safety" Gordon insisted, even going so far as to open the car door


    for her, urging her to get in.


    Seeing his determination, Arabe got into the car.


    Gordon was somewhat pleased and hurried to start the car.


    The VIP floor of the hospital was so quiet one could only hear the sound of the receptionist flipping


    through patient files.


    As soon as the elevator doors opened, a bunch of bodyguards tensed up, hands reaching for their


    concealed des, eyes fierce and unyielding, fixed on the elevator doors.


    Seeing Arabe and Gordon step out, they quickly hid their weapons and bowed respectfully, "Ms.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Be, Gordon, what brings you here?"


    "I''ve got Jeni and Buss leading teams over here too. Everyone be on high alert tonight, and after


    tonight, you can all rest easy."


    Hearing Gordon''s words, his men looked puzzled, "Gordon, what happened?"


    Gordon shot him a look, “Don''t ask what you don''t need to know."


    "Yes, sir."


    Arabe headed towards the ward, with the on-call doctor and nurse following, "Ms. Be, you''re here."


    "How''s Grandpa doing today?"


    “All good, just like you predicted. All his vital signs are within the normal range. Ms. Be, your medical


    skills are truly impressive. You could save him after he was injected with that substance."


    "I just happened to be on the scene"


    If not for the timely intervention, even a minuteter might have been toote.


    "Oh, right, here''s Mr. Darren''s report from today, the doctor handed the paperwork to Arabe.


    “Leave us,’ Arabe said as she took the report and pushed open the ward door. Darren was sleeping


    peacefully.


    The four bodyguards inside the room, about to salute her, were silenced by Arabe''s softmand,


    "Don''t wake Grandpa"


    “Yes, ma''am; they whispered back, resuming their statue-like vigil in each corner of the room.


    Arabe made sure Darren''s nket was snug and then sat by the bed, quietly flipping through the


    report.


    As Gordon finished giving instructions and entered the room, he caught sight of Arabe''s serious


    profile.


    Under the dim light, every little movement of hers captivated him.


    "Gordon"


    It was only when a bodyguard greeted him softly that he snapped out of his reverie, realizing he had


    lost hisposure.


    Fortunately, Arabe had been absorbed in the report and hadn''t looked up.


    Gordon felt his face warm up, turning to his men, "You guys keep watch outside. Ms. Be and I are


    enough here."


    "Yes, sir’ the four bodyguards stepped out.
