Chapter 0194

The private jet carrying Marcus Bartz landed in Hesperia at 4:00 p.m., a full four hours ahead of Mary’s flight. Marcus had been enduring an intense pain in his leg almost since leaving Coravela, but he hadn’t mentioned it to Frederick because of the circumstances. When he stood up, a burning sensation shot through his leg. He tried to move, but it didn’t respond, causing him to collapse to the floor. Frederick panicked.

“Man, I can’t stand up,” Marcus said as Frederick rushed to help him.

“Come on, you’ve got this! Let’s get off the plane and head to the hospital!

Marcus tried leaning on his uninjured leg, but his body wasn’t cooperating. Alarmed, Frederick called for the captain’s help, who notified airport authorities. An ambulance was dispatched immediately.

When the paramedics examined Marcus, they noticed severe bruising on his leg. Though they couldn’t be certain, they suspected either a muscle tear or a ruptured tendon. Left with no choice, Frederick called Dr. Olsen and asked her to fly urgently to Hesperia to assess the injury and, if necessary, perform the surgery that had been postponed time and again for various reasons.

Frederick understood that Marcus’s biggest worry was Mary slipping away and becoming impossible to find, but right now, his boss and friend’s health was the priority. There was no time to track her down they didn’t even have a photo to give the bodyguards. How are we supposed to find her?‘ he thought.
