Chapter 45 His Ruthless Tactics!

The call was from Galen, who had heard about Galatea's car accident and wanted to express his concern quickly. Alaric didn't feel like answering, but he had some questions for Galen, so he picked up.

"Was Galatea extremely busy at the hospital yesterday?" Alaric asked sharply, not allowing Galen a chance to speak first.

Galen was notably anxious as he hurriedly explained, "Since that medical incident, I've made sure Galatea didn't go near the operating room. Yesterday, we experienced a surge of patients from a brawl, and the ER was overwhelmed. Galatea spontaneously stepped in to help without my knowledge. It was her decision, which is why she was quite busy. It was late when she left the hospital."

So, she had been tied up at the hospital until late in the evening before rushing off to Nexus Innovations at his behest.

Hearing the silence on the line, Galen, frightened to breathe, carefully continued, "Mr. Knight, I've arranged the best room and specialists for Galatea. If you allow her to be transferred, the hospital will provide her with the finest care." Alaric looked over at Galatea, lying unconscious. He had no intention of moving her. She wouldn't want her former colleagues to see her in this state.

"No need," Alaric said curtly before ending the call.

After speaking with Galen, Alaric's guilt deepened. Galatea was right. He was selfish and inconsiderate. Engulfed by thoughts of her still being unconscious, Alaric could barely consider confronting the driver responsible for the accident. His sole focus was on the silent form of Galatea, wishing more than anything for her to regain consciousness.

Elsewhere, the phone rang, and the voice spoke with deliberate caution, "Don't worry, it'll look like a pure accident to anyone."

Griffon remained silent, a sly smirk forming at the corner of his mouth.
