Chapter 58 We Owe Him

“what the fuck is that supposed to mean?” Jason eyed Elliot vigilantly.

Instead of explaining himself, Elliot simply let out a cold scoff and brushed past Jason, leaving the latter in the dark about what happened.

Jason watched him leave, his expression dark. Finally, he turned around and headed towards Corynn’s ward.

Even before entering, he could hear faint sounds of sobbing from inside. He pushed the door open and saw a pale–faced Corynn lying in bed, then turned to Erick for answers.

“Erick, what happened? On the way here, Jason had been mulling over the meaning behind Elliot’s words. Could it be that someone had tried to harm Corynn again last night?

Erick, who had been trying to comfort the inconsolable Shirley, excused himself and lead Jason outside the ward.

Last night, someone made an attempt on Corynn’s life,” Erick explained, his voice hoarse. “She almost didn’t make it this time around…”

Jason’s heart leaped to his throat. Just hearing this made him break out in cold sweat.

Someone had dared to commit such an act in the hospital?! Ludicrous!

Jason silently cursed himself for being too complacent. While he knew that whoever was targeting Corynn wouldn’t give up so easily, he brazenly assumed that they wouldn’t dare to strike so soon.
