Chapter 265
“I’m only going to say it once. If anything happens to my wife while she’s here, you and your daughter
won’t be here for long!”
He left after that brutal warning.
When Assistant Director Manning came back to his senses, he gave Priscilla’s head a poke.
“Did you make some business transaction with your uncle?”
Priscilla shook her head pitifully and said, “No, I didn’t.”
“You heard him just now. Take good care of his wife. If something happens to her, I won’t be able to
protect my own office!”
“I know.”
“You’re on the graveyard shift for the time being. Go and take a look if anything happens. Nothing can
happen to her here!”
After Priscilla sent her dad away, there was a malicious glint in her eyes.
She simply had to make sure that she was safe here. She didn’t have to worry about it once she was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtout.
Not to mention that she had deleted the audio recording. She was worried Fia would tell Conrad about
it just now, but she didn’t.
It seemed like Conrad didn’t care that much about her. He most likely worried about the child in her
womb.
So she wouldn’t touch her openly. But she would still do whatever she needed to in the shadows.
Once her cousin became the madam of the Maxwells, the entire Manning household’s status in
Gryphon would be greatly elevated. Then, that hospital assistant director would be in her hands, right?
The next day.
Jason brought breakfast early the next morning, but Priscilla stopped him.
“Our boss made sure that we must protect Mrs. Maxwell. She is not allowed to eat food from the
outside.”
Jason’s expression turned dark. “What are you trying to do to her by not letting me see her?”
“You overthink too much, Mr. Evans. Mr. Maxwell came over last night. My dad is the assistant director
here and he personally greeted him. He promised that nothing would happen to Mrs. Maxwell here.”
Priscilla looked at Jason and she could feel her heart beat faster.
She could forget about Conrad Maxwell, but this man was also pretty good. He was already the
hospital assistant director of the best hospital in Gryphon. His parents‘ background was a mystery, but
there was
no doubt about their influence.
It would be great if she could marry a man like this!
“Mr. Maxwell’s family is very familiar with my dad, so we’ll naturally take good care of her. Don’t worry!”
Jason was silent for two seconds. “I want to see her.”
Only after seeing her would he be able to be assured.
“Fine. I’ll take you to the security room for a look. You can see everything inside Mrs. Maxwell’s room.”
“Okay.”
Priscilla led Jason to the security room. The screen on the desk was a video feed from Fia’s room.
She acted gently and activated the microphone. “You can talk through this, Mr. Evans. Mrs. Maxwell
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcan hear you from here.”
Jason held the microphone and said, “Fia!”
He could see Fia raise her head and sit up from the bed, and then looked around confused from the
screen.
Jason felt better about things and said, “I’m in the station’s security room. They said that I can’t see you
directly. I can only see if you’re okay this way.”
Fia smiled and gave him an OK sign.
Jason then asked, “Did you sleep well last night?”
Fla nodded with a gentle smile on her face. She didn’t want Jason to worry about her.
“Are you lacking anything? Do you need me to get you anything?”
She smiled as she shook her head. Everything was fine.
Jason was about to say something else when Priscilla switched off the screen.
“What are you doing?!”
“Mr. Evans, as the case is still under investigation, we can’t let you see her and disrupt our
investigation.” Priscilla acted business–like. “You’ve seen her. You’re satisfied? Then, please leave.”
