The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 1727 Capturing the Spies

Though Drexel shook with fear, he noticed Arwel and Dave's suspicious concern about the hospital's structure. Taking a deep breath, Drexel explained, "Those are the orders from the higher-ups. They're currently on site. If you're not convinced, I can take you to meet them."

Hearing that, Arwel grabbed his collar and threatened, "We don't care about orders from the higher-ups! What matters now is that you didn't consult us beforehand. Do you think you're above us now that the hospital's doing well? I guess you need to be taught some lessons."

Arwel shoved a book at Drexel and raised his fist, but that was when a feminine voice sounded from the door. "Have you prepared the documents, Mr. Asquith? The higher-ups are urging us."

It was none other than Wynter, who had come disguised in a nurse's uniform regarding doubts about Drexel's earlier message. Drexel instantly recognized her voice, and Arwel removed the gag from his mouth.

Dave moved to open the door and found Wynter standing there. She silently greeted him before addressing Drexel, "Are the papers ready, Mr. Asquith? They're pressing us."

"Oh, yes. It's all set. I was just discussing a few things with these gentlemen. I'll be right over," Drexel replied.

From Wynter's attire and speech, he could tell that she had noticed something amiss. Instead of calling her out on it, he played along with her words.

When Wynter turned around, her eyes landed on Dave's nametag. She cast a quick glance at him, recognizing his golden locks as a match to the hair sample she had retrieved. She looked away and followed Drexel to the door.

Just then, Dave called out to her. "Which department are you from? I don't think I've seen you around."

As Wynter was about to respond, Drexel jumped in. "She's a graduate I recruited this year. She's still completing her internship."

Dave considered his words before asking, "Which department has she been busy with lately?

Drexel calmly replied, "She's been helping me with administrative work. Do I have to report that, too?"

"We're just looking out for our new colleague. Don't take it personally, Mr. Asquith. The higher-ups are pressing, aren't they? You'd better get going," Dave stated, waving his hand dismissively.

His expression darkened as soon as Drexel and Wynter were out of sight. "When the higher- ups leave, we'll teach Asquith a lesson he won't forget. We'll make sure he's gone for good."

Arwel stretched his back with a grin. "That sounds like a plan. This hospital is under our

thumb, anyway. He was so cocky just now. I would've dealt with him already if that nurse hadn't walked in."

Upon recalling Wynter's gaze, Dave wondered curiously, "That nurse looked at my nametag before leaving. What was she thinking?"

"You don't realize how charming you are, do you? There's a saying in Cascadia about love at first sight. She probably has her eyes on you." Arwel chuckled. Hearing that, Dave dispelled his doubts.

Meanwhile, Drexel led Wynter to an empty room. He cautiously locked the door before handing her the documents. "Thank you, Ms. Quinnell. If you hadn't shown up, those thugs would've beaten me to a pulp. Mr. Tarvin brought them in, and they're the real power behind this hospital."

"No need for thanks. You've done a good job. This hospital may be well-managed, but it doesn't mean they prioritize the patients' welfare," Wynter replied.

She pulled out the hospital blueprint from the pile of documents. She spotted a basement marked on the blueprint and asked Drexel about it.

"It used to be a lab. Something happened, and now it's abandoned," Drexel answered.

Wynter arched an eyebrow. "How many people know about the basement?"

"Not many. Aside from those two earlier -Dave and Arwel, only those who used to work in Brighthope know about it," Drexel replied.
