No one knew if Cassius or Jovanni had enemies who wanted them dead. If that's the case, Charlotte and Shane would be caught in the crossfire. Although Shane and Charlotte were affluent now, they would still be vulnerable in the political circle.

Business was business; politics were politics. It's best to avoid them and keep them away from families.

"You should investigate Cassius carefully. You should try to be as meticulous as possible, even if there's seemingly nothing hidden," Shane said.

"So, do you want to fake an illness and go to the hospital with me? Coincidentally, I feel a little sore in my ribs these two days and need to have a physical examination done."

"Sure."

With Shane's approval, Avery began to make arrangements. First, the hospitalization, then a list of miscellaneous orders. Finally, he sent Shane in. He administered an IV drip for Shane that delivered a combination of glucose and antibiotics. Shane had a lot of old injuries and needed to recuperate, so this was not just for

show.

Previously when Skylar treated Rick, he mentioned that Shane had injuries from being hypnotized. They had to pay close attention to any potential brain damage. Therefore, he needed a baptism of disinfectant in the hospital more than anyone else.

"Well, I've sent the news on social media. I believe that our lovely Charlotte will call me soon. It will be an opportune moment to bring her here. You should play the role of a patient who doesn't want to talk or eat, so she will be forced to stay with you."

Shane pursed his lips.

"Having second thoughts? Well, envision Charlotte and Cassius together, then think about Jovanni. Now, picture Jovanni with Charlotte. What you have given Charlotte will become her dowry, because I don't believe that Jovanni wouldn't fall for Charlotte."

Charlotte was flushed with resources and money now, even more so than Shane. Avery's words were not an exaggeration.

"Got it," Shane said.

"You'd better get it. Well, I have my physical examination now. Stay here, Skylar will be here in a minute to examine you. Take this moment to get all your wounds checked out."

Avery finished and left. It was always rowdy with him around. The sudden silence was jarring in his absence.
