Chapter 412
ADRIANA: Is that option to have your Doctor Luna help us, still open? Ada’s getting worse. If yes, here’s the address…
I frown, glancing at the address. It’s not too far, but it does look like some sort of block of flats. Keeping my eyes on the laptop screen, I slip my phone back into my pocket. I don’t plan to let them know if I will be showing up or not – just in
case.
I know Valerie will not have an issue with it, but I still plan to fill her in beforehand. I look at the screen, forty–seven percent downloaded and another four minutes…
It feels like years as time passes slowly.
Three minutes…
I glance at my watch. Come on…
Two minutes….
There’s less than twenty–five percent left to d******d when suddenly the screen flashes red.
Fuck.
I pull out the memory stick, cutting the internet connection as fast as possible. I don’t know how much important information I have missed out on, but I can’t risk it. If there’s even a small chance that they realised someone had managed to infiltrate their database, they may take precautions and I can’t afford to lose them again.
Any information I’ve retrieved will be something I will show to the Supernatural Council, and if they do nothing… then I will release every damn thing I have in my possession online and let it wreak havoc.
Standing up, I pull back the bedding, punching the pillow a few times to look like someone has slept there.
Grabbing my things, I scan the room, making sure I’ve gathered everything before I leave. Luckily, the woman is on the phone, and I drop my key there.
“Hey wait, can I get your number?” she whispers with urgency covering the mouthpiece.
“I got to run,” I say, not sparing her a glance. Getting out, I make my way back to
the car and get in, tossing my bag into the passenger seat.
Driving away, I take off my cap and hoodie and put on a leather jacket. Parking the car where I picked it up from, I walk down the road to my own truck, tossing my bag in and getting in, I drive away.
Now to get home and check exactly what I managed to get and do a full check on the hospital staff.
It’s past six and I’m leaning against my bike outside the hospital entrance. Yeah, I’m a little early, but a part of me might just be hoping that twat who thinks he can hit on my girl shows his face.
I glance at my watch, keeping an eye on the entrance, when I see Valerie step out with a man. He’s talking to her animatedly, wearing a brown smart coat.
Don’t tell me this is the doc… I almost smirk but hide it. Maybe a couple weeks ago I might have thought that they are a good match, but they aren’t. We’re perfect for one another and my girl definitely
prefers a bad boy over a good boy.
“… work today. I think we should continue from there tomorrow. I’ll check on these. It’s alright to call you later if I have to?”
Valerie’s spotted me, her eyes lighting up before she glances back at the man. ” Sure, that’s fine. I got to go.”
The man follows her gaze until our eyes meet and I stand tall.
I might as well go introduce myself… Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Walking over to them, I keep my eyes on Valerie, her cheeks flushing as she closes the gap between us and flings her arms around my neck and I catch her.
“Zade, you’re here already!” she tugs me down, pecking my lips as I catch her around her waist.
“Always…” I say quietly, my gaze drifting to the man who looks like he’s swallowed poison.
