Chapter 1298

Kathryn was baffled by Anne's injuries.

Anthony would not beat Anne, but there was not one woman on earth who could bear such

physical and mental torture.

Kathryn had known Anne for a time and was informed every time Anne was injured, so it was hard

not to pity Anne at some point.

Kathryn sat down in her office, and heard a knock on the door, before someone barged in without

permission. Stunned by the man before her, Kathryn stood and muttered, “Principal Newman?”

“I'm not a principal anymore.”

She was instantly rendered speechless.

What happened to the Pinnacle Academy had been reported on international news, so everyone

around the world knew it.

“I know that Anne is in the hospital. How is she?” Lucas asked.

Kathryn realized at that very moment that Anne's injury might be related to the Pinnacle Academy's

downfall

Lucas had lost a lot of weight, which was reasonable for someone who had suffered as much as he

did.

“won't let you see her. Anthony's men are guarding the room so you will never be able to get in,”

Kathryn said.

For someone Lucas's size, the bodyguards would spot him from a distance.

Anthony had commanded that all injections were to be carried out by Kathryn herself and only

certain nurses were allowed into the room. Even so, no one was allowed to wear surgical masks if

they wished to enter the room.

The security was so strict that not even a fly would find its way inside.

“I don't need to see her. I just want to talk to her on the phone. Don’t worry, I won't cause you any

trouble,” Lucas said, “Doctor Brown, you are a doctor. Do you really not pity Anne for what Anthony

has put her through? Besides, you've known Anne for a while now. Do you really want to watch as

she suffers?”

Kathryn felt as though her mind had been read. “If Anthony finds out, both you and Anne will

suffer.”

“Just lend her your phone. Anthony won't find out.”

Kathryn began to waver. “Why would you call her? Do you have the means to help her?”

“I want to help her.”

Kathryn considered if agreeing to help was the right thing to do, it would mean that she was

betraying Anthony, but at the same time, her heart ached for Anne.

Not only was she a doctor, she was also a woman.

"She ended up here because of me,” Lucas asked worriedly, “how is her injury?”

Kathryn did not want to discuss the private details with him and said, “I will hand my phone to her.

Keep it brief.”

“Thank you.”

Soon, it was time for Anne to have her IV injection, so Kathryn went to Anne's room with her phone.

The two were the only ones inside the room, while the bodyguards outside guarded the room

dutifully.

Kathryn injected the solution into Anne and whispered, “Lucas Newman came to me.”

Anne jolted in shock and whispered hysterically, “Tell him to leave...”

If Anthony found out about it, the situation would only worsen

"You can call Lucas using my phone,” Kathryn continued.

Anne was taken by surprise that Anthony's personal doctor would help Lucas and shot Kathryn a

suspicious look.

“Don’t worry. I won't tell Mr. Marwood. Just keep it brief and no one will know.” Kathryn took out

her phone and handed it to Anne.

Anne accepted the phone and saw Lucas’ number already on the screen; one touch and she would

be able to reach him.

“Hurry,” Kathryn urged.
