Chapter 416

“Which hospital is your cousin in?”

“She’s at Central Hospital.”

He put down the blow dryer, gently hugged her, and said, “Her story is a real bummer. Her parents‘

company was forcibly taken over, then they were in a car accident, and the driver died too. She’s been

leaning on the driver’s son. I want to help, but I feel so helpless.”

Seeing Felix so down, Carol reached out and gave his head a little rub.

“Don’t worry, I’ll talk to Maja about it. She’s loaded, she’ll get a specialist in no time. And $200,000 is

peanuts to Maja. Your cousin will get her surgery soon. Felix, can I go with you to visit your cousin

someday?”

Felix stiffened, a dangerous look in his eyes, clutching Carol tightly.

“If you go with me, don’t let her know about us.”

“Why?” Carol was puzzled, turning her head to look at him.

Felix lightly kissed her lips.

“Since the accident, I’m the one taking care of her. Other relatives avoid her, her home is in debt, and

debt collectors are always at the door, she’s really sensitive now. I’m worried she’ll think you stole me

from her and cry all the time.”

“Sorry, Carol.”

So that was it.

Carol gave a generous smile.

“No problem, ‘won’t mention our relationship.”

“Felix, if your friend can solve this, I should take her out for a meal, right?”

Carol pulled him onto the bed.

“Maja and I are close; you don’t have to be so formal. I’ll talk to her.”

Actually, Carol could totally handle this on her own:

After all, she’s rolling in it, she can do whatever she wanted.

Felix gratefully held Carol, and without hesitation he lay Carol down, grabbing a blindfold for her.

Carol’s cheeks turned red.

“Felix, I don’t want to wear this.”

Felix stiffened, then turned off the room lights.

Carol loved him with all her heart. Suddenly she saw him take a pill.

“Why do you always take pills?”

Felix laughed, casually saying, “It’s a vitamin.”

Carol didn’t suspect a thing..

As they held each other, she heard him suppress a call, like it was some other woman’s name. Carol

stiffened, sobering up instantly. “What did you call me?”

Felix gripped her chin, “You heard wrong.”

Only then did Carol glare at him.

The night outside had turned dark.

In Greenfield, the young people’s nightlife was just beginning.

Carlene Shepard and a group of socialites left the bar, suddenly realizing her phone was missing, her

eyebrows furrowed.

She seemed to have been bumped into earlier, was that when her phone was stolen?

She was furious, ordering an immediate investigation.

Surveillance footage showed that indeed, the person who bumped into her earlier had stolen her

phone.

She ordered a further investigation of the surveillance footage, finally identifying the thief’s face.

it was the woman who tried to lure lan.

Seeing this, Carlene’s face hardened, and she immediately understood why her phone was stolen.

She gave a cold laugh.

She guessed that the woman had used her phone to message lan, trying to lure him.

But Carlene had absolute trust in lan, there was no way he would fall for such a cheap trick.

“Ms. Shepard, should we call the police?”

She waved off the suggestion, “No need, let her make a fool of herself, we can call the police after

she’s embarrassed herself.”

Meanwhile, Tricia Pennyfeather, holding Carlene’s phone, had arrived at another luxury hotel.

Because she was blacklisted at lan’s hotel, she couldn’t get in.

Her hands were shaking; she had been stalking Carlene all night and had noted her phone unlock

code.

Now she entered the code on the phone and sure enough, it unlocked.

Tricia smirked; her eyes full of greed.

Tonight, she would make herself lan’s woman!!

She had been waiting for this day for too long.

Once she succeeded, plus the fact that she was Neil’s daughter; Maja would surely be defeated!

Tricia took a deep breath and sent a message to lan.

[lan, I’m drunk tonight and a man is stalking me. I’m really scared, he’s kicking my door. Can you come

over, please?]

After sending the message, she immediately went to take a shower.

And she took out a spray she had prepared in advance.

She had been preparing for days, the spray could make people groggy.

She didn’t believe she couldn’t succeed tonight!
