Chapter 1696
"Do you really think a few guards can keep me here?"
"There’s been a misunderstanding. Your people asked us to arrange some food for you for your
wee. Please join the VIP suite to have some rest."
Off to the side, Derrick couldn''t believe his eyes. The world-renowned Dr. Bell was in fact a strikingly
beautiful and poised youngdy. His heart surged into a rapid beat.
So young, yet already earned the esteemed title of Dr. Bell.
She waspletely captivating.
Arabe made her way into the VIP room, only to find Horace, legs crossed, lounging on the bed
munching on potato chips.
"Ah, Boss, you’ve arrived?"
At the sight of Arabe, Horace, his cheeks still puffed out tooting chips, urged with excitement: "These
chips are divine. You should have some."
The bodyguards in the room gazed at Arabe with deep respect. After all, she was the savior who had
saved their boss Sean''s life.
"Boss, is the surgery done? Sean''s still alive, isn’t he?" Horace queried.
"What do you think?"
"With Boss up to the task, of course he is! Hey!" Horaceughed, pressing a chip into Arabe''s lips.
"They said we can''t leave until Seanes around, right? Come sit by me. I''ve saved some special
snacks just for you."
Arabe was speechless.
Horace tore open another bag of chips and tossed it to the side. The bodyguards darted forward with
bowls at the ready. Arabe could tell Horace had his amusements; he had them working up a sweat
even in the chilly winter.

One of the guards took a call and, after a whispered exchange, guns were suddenly drawn on Arabe
and Horace.
Horace, lording over the guards just a second ago, was now utterly dumbfounded as he found seven or
eight men surrounded him and Arabe. "What''s the meaning of this? You dare point guns at your boss
Sean''s life-saver?"
The lead bodyguard responded with deference, "Boss Sean''s awake. He’s requested to see you."
Horace hadn’t expected such a turn of events from Sean. With only two pieces of snacks left, he
quickly popped one into Arabe''s mouth and took the other for himself before moving to the VIP room
next door.
On the hospital bed.
Seany half-reclined, hismanding allure and rogue charm as strong as ever, his intimidating
presence unwavering.

He seemed not like a man fresh out of surgery, but rather like someone awakened from a restful sleep,
his demeanor calm and collected.
He smiled, looking at the pair before him, while all the bodyguards aimed their guns at them.
"Shall we talk now?" Sean asked Arabe with a yful edge. "Why were you digging into Sam? And
why are you so interested in that ind?"
"You backstabber." Horace was astounded. Sean was reneging on their deal. After all, Boss Be had
performed the surgery, and now Sean was double-crossing them.
"All’s fair in love and war," Sean quipped with a more sinister smile, as if schooling a naive subordinate.
However, Arabe too, formed her lips into a knowing smile. "I seem to have forgotten to mention, the
prescription I gave your men earlier should have seventeen ingredients. But I listed only sixteen."
Sean''s smile stiffened abruptly.
Steward and the rest of the bodyguards were taken aback, not expecting the girl to have an ace up her
sleeve.
"As for the seventeenth ingredient, I''ll let you know once we''re safely out of here," Arabe continued
smoothly.
Sean scoffed, "How do I know you''re telling the truth?"
"Right now, you don''t have much of a choice but to trust me, do you?" Arabe shot back.
The operation was her doing, and without her insight for the follow-up treatment, how swiftly and how
fully Sean would heal were all in her hands.
