Night of Destiny
Chapter 2030
We arenât married yet, and I havenât even met his parents. Having a baby at this time doesnât seem
appropriate. However, the baby came, and it was a joyous occasion. It was just that it came a little too
early.
Ellen was considering whether she should call Jared to tell him or wait until he came home tonight.
Before she could make a decision, her phone rang.
She picked it up and saw that it was Brook calling. âHello, Mr. Linton.â âIs this Ellen Reiss? Mr. Linton
just got hit by someone and is in the hospital. Can you come over?â
âWhat? Is it serious? Which hospital?â Ellen asked anxiously. âHe broke his leg, but itâs not that serious.
Heâs at General Hospital. Come over quickly!â
Ellen grabbed her bag from the couch, held her phone tightly, and rushed out. Brook was already
seventy years old this year and couldnât afford to take a hit like this!
At this moment, outside the hospital, several people who looked like gang members were smoking and
chatting in a black MPV âWill this trick work? Will it attract this girl Over?â
âI heard sheâs Brookâs direct disciple. Sheâll definitely come.â
âThis girl is really pretty, huh?â âWhat the-What are you thinking? Before we get the money, you canât
mess around! Remember the five hundred thousand! After we get the money, you can sleep with
whatever woman you like.â
There was laughter in the car as they dreamt of getting a large sum. Kidnapping someone wasnât their
first time. The leaderâs phone rang, and he answered, âHello!â
âBoss, that girl just got out of the taxi and is walking towards the hospital! Should we take action now?â
âNo, wait until she finishes visiting Brook and comes out. Besides, we have someone to help us, and
heâll bring her to us.â
Ellen walked quickly towards the ward, pushed open the door, and saw Brook sitting there with a
bandage wrapped around his leg. Two disciples from the chess club were taking care of him.
âEllen, why did you come? Itâs just a minor injury!â Brook felt sorry for her making the trip. âWho hit
you?â Ellen sat down and angrily asked.
At this moment, a gentle-looking young man with glasses walked in and apologized, âIâm sorry, it was
me. I didnât mean to do it. I accidentally knocked him down.â
Ellen glared at him and then asked about Brookâs condition. The doctor suggested that Brook should
be observed in the hospital for two days. After chatting for twenty minutes, Brook insisted that she head
back first and he would call if there was an emergency. So, Ellen finally left with relief. As she exited the
room, she saw the man who hit Brook standing outside the door.
âIâm sorry, miss. I didnât mean to hit him. I will take full responsibility for the medical expenses, the man
said apologetically.
âLeave your phone number, and we will let you know the specific cost when he is discharged,â Ellen
replied. He immediately pressed the elevator button for her and said, âOkay, donât worry. I will not shirk
my responsibility.â He then handed her his business card, which had his phone number and address.
Ellen took the card and left the elevator quickly. The man followed her and asked, âMiss, where are you
going? Can I give you a ride?â âNo, thanks,â Ellen rejected.
The man followed Ellen out all the way, and just as she stood at the intersection, a black MPV suddenly
stopped in front of her. The door opened, and she thought someone was getting off, but unexpectedly a
huge force pushed her towards the van compartment from behind, and a man inside quickly stretched
out his hands and pulled her in with great strength.
Ellen could not call for help. She was pushed into the van, and the person who knocked Brook over
also got in. Her hands and feet were pressed and bound no matter how she struggled, and even her
mouth was taped.
