Only after the car disappeared from her sight did she allow the remaining two bodyguards to send
Duke to the emergency room.
“Mr. Winters’ injuries are minor, but the back of his head has taken a rather hard hit.” The doctor held
the examination report and said, “It was an armed weapon, so there is a small area of bruising on his
brain. Theoretically, this bruise won’t affect him much. His body will absorb it in half a month.”
When Adina heard what the doctor said, she sighed in relief. “Does he need to be in the hospital for
half a month?”
“That’s not necessary. He will just stay for three days for observation.”
Duke was pushed to the ward. When Adina saw him lying on the bed with a pale face, she felt very
conflicted.
Not long ago, this man was shot by Dew in order to save Georgie, and he also laid in the hospital for a
few days.
He had not recovered from his previous injury, and now he had been injured again.
She leaned on the chair beside the bed, held her forehead, and closed her eyes to rest.
George and Alden sat in the car on the way back to the Winters family.
The atmosphere in the car was dull, and only the wind outside the window could be heard. It was only
after a long time before Alden spoke. “I’ve investigated Earley Wynters, but I could only learn that he is
the investor of an underground biological company. All other information has been concealed. Do you
know any conflict between him, dad, and mom?”
George shook his head. “I’ve never heard dad mentioning Earley’s name before.”
He took out his phone and keyed in “Earley Wynters”, but no valid information appeared. Only after he
added the name “Elitos” did Earley’s photo appear. Alden immediately narrowed his eyes. “He is Earley
Wynters?”
George was also stunned. “Did we meet this person in the hospital that day?”
Alden nodded.
He even remembered that there was a name on this man’s mask, which was Shura.
Shura’s profile appeared as one of the top three names in the Wanted Board on the Dark Net, and the
reward had
reached a terrifying eleven figures. Besides, Shura had killed people.
If Earley was Shura, then…
Alden’s expression tensed up. “Dad and Mom are getting into big trouble.”
“Why do you say so?” George frowned. “Is it hard to deal with Earley Wynters?”
George had been working for the company and did not pay attention to other matters, let alone those
rumors on the Dark Net.
Alden tapped his fingers on the knee before he pursed his lips and said, “I’ll tell you the details after I
find out some information.”
K had been involved on Dark Net, so he would know more clearly than him about Shura.
“Water…”
A hoarse voice was suddenly heard in the silent ward.
Adina opened her eyes in a daze, and she saw Duke’s long lashes trembling.
She got up, poured a glass of warm water, and came over before she put it to his lips. She said softly,
“Open your mouth, I’m feeding you.”
Duke’s lips were dry. When he touched the glass, he opened his mouth and started drinking.
He was laying down, so quite a lot of the water ran down the corners of his lips and onto the pillow.
After Adina put down the glass, she bent down and helped clean the water droplets on the pillow.
Her long and freshly scented hair fell down and brushed against Duke’s face. He slowly opened his
eyes.
