At the hospital.

Chris was fuming. A shattered arm? He could barely contain his rage.

He barked at Kevin. “I don’t care how you do it. Find out who that man is!*

Just as Chris finished getting his wound treated, his phone rang.

Fred’s voice was sharp and impatient. “Get to the office. Now.”

Chris frowned. “You’re at the office?”

Hearing that Fred had gone to the office, Chris’s face darkened.

Since handing over the company to him, their father hadn’t set foot in the building for a long time.

Chris’s expression darkened. “What?”

“You heard me,” Fred snapped. “How are you this clueless?”

He truly had no idea–not even the slightest hint.

Seeing his silence, Fred knew immediately that Chris was completely in the dark.
