Chapter 690
โNonsense, what am I afraid of? These little tricks donโt scare me at all,โ Blair was speaking when her phone suddenly rang, and she screamed in fright. Her scream was piercing, and Elizabeth tugged at her ear, silently taking out her own phone. It was a call from Felix.
She glanced at Blair and sneered. Because Blair said she wasnโt scared, but she screamed so loudly. However, seeing Blair scream so loudly meant that it probably wasnโt a big deal for her. Elizabeth held the phone and said, โSpeak.โ
โWeโve caught up with the car. It stopped midway, and a man got in. Iโm heading over from Base M now and should encounter the car soon,โ Felix said.
Elizabeth said, โFind out who sent him. If heโs from Esme, pry his mouth open and make him spill everything about her.โ In that way, she could openly go after the Russell Family.
โGot it, Boss.โ The call ended.
Elizabeth looked at Blair. Blair frowned; her gaze at Elizabeth was somewhat strange. Elizabethโs demeanor and tone during the call were very different from her usual self, who even had an indescribable powerful aura, enough to swallow Blair whole.
Did Elizabeth have another identity? Why did Blair feel that Elizabeth was not simple?
โIโve called someone to take you to the hospital,โ Elizabeth noticed her surprise and said calmly.
Blair was puzzled. โWhat about you?โ
โIโll continue working,โ Elizabeth said calmly, walking out.
โYouโre not going to the hospital? Or, can you still stay here?โ Blair quickly followed her.
This research institute wasnโt safe. After such a thrilling event in the middle of the night, could Elizabeth still stay?
โWhatโs this compared to?โ Elizabeth looked at her with interest. โIโve been through many more kidnappings than this.โ
โWhat?โ Blair was still a bit shaken, feeling dizzy.
Elizabeth smiled, finding Blair somewhat cute. โAlright, you go to the hospital for a check-up. Iโll get you a day off tomโฆorrow.โ
Oliver drove up, and Elizabeth signaled Blair to go. Blair got into the car, bewildered, looking at the gradually receding research institute, feeling dazed. Elizabeth and Blair were about the same age, so why was Elizabeth so calm?
Chapter 690
After sending Blair off, Elizabeth looked at the vast research institute, her gaze gradually turning cold. She thought the security at the institute was too poor. So she arrived at the entrance of the institute, where the security guard was leisurely drinking tea and watching TV.
Elizabeth knocked on the door, and the guard came out, grinning. โElizabeth,โ
โGo home and watch TV,โ Elizabeth said, feeling it was hard to explain.
โWhat do you mean?โ The guard didnโt understand.
Elizabeth smiled. โYouโre fired.โ
Not just him, but a whole batch of security personnel at the institute were fired by her. She would bring in a new team to handle the instituteโs security. Because the doctors here were very important. If something happened, she couldnโt afford the consequences.
The next morning, Elizabeth messaged Sheldon, saying she had replaced the staff. Sheldon had also heard from Blair that something had happened at the institute. He fully supported Elizabeth and was grateful that she saved Blair.
Elizabeth felt ashamed, as the assailant was actually after her. Blair just happened to run into him.
While having breakfast, Elizabeth received a message from Felix: [Boss, we lost the person last night. But one thing for sure, he wasnโt sent by Esme.]
Elizabeth was surprised.
Felix: [Have you offended anyone else recently?]
(I highly recommend a captivating book that I couldnโt put down for three days and nights. Itโs incredibly engaging and a must-read. The title of the book is โThe Gambling Kingโs Daughter.โ You can find it by searching for it in the search bar.
Here is the synopsis of the book:
My husband and I have been married for two years, but he has always been very cold towards me. Not only that, he has also been having affairs with other women. I lost all hope in him and threw a divorce agreement in his face. Iโm done with this; letโs get a divorce!
After the divorce, I not only gained my freedom but also inherited billions in wealth! At this point, my ex-husband came back to me, kneeling in front of me and begging for my forgiveness.
Should I forgive him?)
