Chapter 173 The Wealthy Friend
The bedroom door was pushed open and Sebastian came in, handing me my bag and saying, “Your
phone should be in the bag, it’s been ringing, it must be your family calling you.”
I nodded, murmured a thank you, then pulled out my phone to check it. There were several missed
calls from my mother, Rachel, Alexander, and… Walter.
–
I glanced at the incoming call display and returned each call to assure them of my safety. When it came
to Walter, I closed my phone and didn’t continue to call back. I looked up at Sebastian and asked,
“Where is this?”
He paused, then chuckled, “My friend’s house. Because you were unconscious, and you were drugged,
and the man’s body was difficult to explain, so he had you brought here and had a private doctor treat
you.”
Hearing him say that, I couldn’t help but ask, “What about your friend? Can I meet him and thank him in
person?”
Sebastian paused slightly, hesitated for a few seconds and said, “Now? He might be a bit busy. You
should rest first. You just woke up and your body hasn’t fully recovered yet.
I smiled faintly, shook my head slightly, and lifted the blanket to get out of bed. He quickly stopped me,
saying, “You’re not well yet…”
“It’s okay now, I’m much better. I’ve troubled you for so long, I shouldn’t continue to be a bother.”
Saying this, I got out of bed. My body still felt a bit weak, but fortunately, there was nothing seriously
wrong anymore.

Looking at Sebastian, I said, “Thank you for saving me and sorting out such a big trouble for me. If you
need my help in the future, just ask. I will definitely do my best.”
He shook his head, watching as I was determined to leave. He said, “Alright, I’ll take you.”
As she spoke, she helped me out of the bedroom. The villa was even larger than I had imagined,
luxurious and extravagant. I looked around and then turned to her, “What’s the name of your friend? I’d
like to invite you both for a meal someday to thank you in person for saving my life. Could you pass on
the message for me?”
Sebastian lifted his gaze towards a door not far from the bedroom. His young eyes paused slightly,
then he responded to me, “Okay.”
Of course, I noticed his gaze. I figured his friend must be busy in that room. I thought it wouldn’t be
right to disturb someone at work like that, it would be better to meet another day and formally express
my gratitude.
Not long after leaving the villa, Alexander’s car arrived.
After helping me into the car, Alexander looked at Sebastian, expressed his thanks, and then drove me
away.
On the bus.
Alexander asked me about what had happened at the abandoned factory. After I finished telling him, he
took a deep breath and said, “Ashley is really ruthless, not even sparing her own flesh and blood.”
I pursed my lips, refraining from making any comments, and simply asked, “How is she doing now?”
“I heard she was still in the emergency room, the situation ivas unclear,” Alexander recounted the
events of the day. “When Rachel

and I arrived, Walter was already there. Only Ashley was lying in a pool of blood, you and Henry were
nowhere to be found. Walter thought you had been taken away by Henry. After the ambulance took
Ashley away, he started searching for you with the police near the factory. But it seemed like the area
around the factory had been deliberately tampered with, there were no traces to be found.”
At this point, he frowned at me, “What’s the story with your friend? That villa just now, it’s not cheap in
River City. And those cars parked outside the garage, I noticed there were bodyguards all around.
What does he do? He looks quite young. Is he a rich second generation?”
The friend he mentioned was Sebastian. I slightly shook my head and said, “Those are not my friends. I
haven’t met the actual owner, they must be quite busy.”
Alexander frowned, “A friend of a friend?” He paused, then said, “A stranger, who not only saved you
because of a friend’s connection, but also took you to his own home and had a private doctor take care
of you. He even helped you deal with a dead body, and you haven’t met this friend of a friend from
beginning to end?”
I nodded, momentarily at a loss for words. As for Sebastian, all I could think of at the moment was that
his friend must have a deep
relationship with him. Other than that, I couldn’t think of any other
reason.
Instead of letting him continue on this topic, I said, “I’m fine now, you can go and tell the police not to
continue the investigation. As for Ashley, have Cory keep an eye on her.”
If she had woken up and realized that she had killed her own husband and child to frame me, I could
still have been unscathed. I’m just afraid she might go mad.
