Chapter 619
"We’ll stay in the hospital."
Not surprisingly, Hesper emerged as the winner of the bet. Carter agreed as he imagined what 013
would do when he found out about this.
‘He’ll come over and quarrel with Nathaniel again.’
Carter could not help but feel a little stressed as soon as he thought of the scene when Nathaniel and
013 saw each other after this.
But no matter what, Hesper’s goal had been achieved, and Carter’s admiration toward her just kept on
growing.
‘This woman is making a fool out of the whole organization. And that includes Nathaniel, who’s always
been known for his relentlessness.’
...
On the other side of the city, Rickard and Matthew naturally failed to find Hesper at the manor, but
because Nathaniel had no time to deal with the servants and Carter was in the hospital with him,
Rickard easily apprehended one of the servants.
"Was a woman imprisoned here before?"
Listening to the unfamiliar language, the servant waved her hand, trying to indicate that she did not
understand. When she first saw a group of men barging in, she was flustered, but she could more or
less guess that these people were here to look for Hesper.
Rickard frowned, turned on the translator on his phone, and asked the servant to input her response
herself.
"It’s Hesper."
Seeing what the servant typed, Matthew raised his head in extreme agitation, while Rickard asked her
some related questions more calmly. The servant answered him in a straightforward manner.
When he saw that Hesper had gone into a shock due to an allergic reaction, Matthew clenched his
fists. "We were one day too late!"
Rickard asked for the location of the nearest hospital. Hesper’s condition must be very critical; as long
as Nathaniel wanted to save Hesper’s life, he would not look far away.
"Let’s go to the hospital."
Matthew nodded, while Rickard stared at the address of the hospital on the map, took a deep breath,
and prayed inwardly.
‘Hesper... Please be there.’ Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
The journey to the hospital was reasonable, but it would still take about 20 minutes by car. Rickard
looked extremely peaceful all the way, while Matthew tried to obtain more information from the servant
and only felt relieved after learning that Hesper had not suffered any grievances.
‘It seems that what Rickard said was correct. Nathaniel wants me dead, and Hesper is the best bait to
do so. In addition, he’s not as cold-blooded as rumored either. He had a thing for Hesper before... And
although his identity has now changed, he still refuses to do anything to her. This is the best evidence.’
They rushed directly to the hospital, and Rickard spoke fluently to the nurse in Fredonian. As soon as
they confirmed that Hesper was still in the hospital, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems we’ve arrived just in time," Matthew said.
"Oh really?" Nathaniel’s voice suddenly came from behind him. His face looked a little pale, and his
right arm seemed twisted and in a strange posture.
"Where’s Hesper?"
Rickard took a few steps forward and restrained Nathaniel but saw him chuckle twice instead. His right
arm was completely useless at this point, so he could not even be bothered to struggle.
"If I were you, I’d chase after her as soon as possible." Nathaniel’s gaze dimmed. "013 just took Hesper
away from the hospital. She isn’t capable of resisting. 013 isn’t like me; he won't show her any mercy."
