Chapter 410

Felix’s POV

My foot wouldn’t stop tapping as I watched the closed guest room door. Our mansion had turned into a makeshift ER in minutes – equipment wheeled in, doctors barking orders, that unmistakable copper smell of blood hanging in the air.

Through the crack in the door, I could see Adrian sitting with his sleeve rolled up, expressionless as his blood flowed into the tube connected to Blake.

I glanced at Astrid beside me. Even her usual swagger seemed worn down today.

I said, just to break the silence. “Lucky my grandfather Sebastian kept this room stocked with medical gear for Harrison’s research. Without a sterile setup like this… Blake’s chances would be way worse.”

Astrid just nodded, eyes fixed on the door.

“So what actually happened?” I pressed. “Everything online is chaos – people are saying Blake died in the Parker garage! I can’t figure out what’s true.”

Astrid sighed, giving Adrian a quick look before answering quietly.

*Someone kidnapped Emma. They took her to the Parker garage. Blake went to save her.” She paused like she was editing her thoughts. “The rest… well, you

can see.”

“That explains why she wanted to give blood,” I muttered. My brain kept spinning with questions. Who targets a kid? Why Parker Group? How did Blake even know?

The whole thing stank.

“But wait,” I frowned, ‘why bring him here instead of Mayo? Parker Group’s had a deal with Mayo forever. Any employee gets hurt, they go straight there. So why the change today?”

Astrid’s eyes narrowed. “If the people behind Mayo were the ones who hurt Blake, would you want him sent there?”

I froze. “You think – ”

The door swung open before I could finish. One of the surgeons stepped out, mask pulled down, looking worried.

“Mr. Thompson.”

‘How is he?” I moved forward quickly.

The doctor frowned deeper. “Which one is Audrey Sinclair?”
