Awakening the War God novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261 Critical Illness 

Gumoldur City Sixth People's Hospital! 

It was already evening, and the hospital was still bustling with people. 

Especially in the inpatient department, people hurriedly moved about with solemn expressions. And some of them had a glint of despair in their eyes. 

A hospital was a place that tested human nature. 

Matilda had deep feelings about this. 

She wore a figure-hugging skirt, holding a cigarette between two fingers in her right hand. 

Her eyes were bloodshot and her long hair disheveled, giving her a somewhat decadent appearance. 

Yet, even in this decadence, there was a captivating allure. 

This was a hospital corridor, and smoking was not allowed here in theory. 

But at this moment, only the light in the intensive care unit was on, and the rest of the place was pitch black. 

Seven or eight subordinates from the Southern Heaven Association patrolled back and forth, and there were no others, so no one cared if she smoked. 

Her father had been in a coma for several days and was still undergoing urgent treatment. 

Taking a few puffs of cigarettes was the only way to relieve her stress. 

During this period, due to the pressure from Ghostly Purgatory Hall and the Jeff Family, the Southern Heaven Association had suffered heavy losses and lost half of its territory. 

Southern Heaven Association was one of the top three gangs in Gumoldur City, but it was now on the brink of collapse. 

Her father was a powerful figure in the entire Gumoldur City with extensive connections. 

But now, not a single person dared to visit her father, which chilled her heart. 

"Who's there?" 

One of the black-clad subordinates in the corridor suddenly shouted. 

Matilda raised her almond-shaped eyes and looked closely. 

She faintly saw a thin man walking slowly. 

"Gabriel!" 

After a few glances, she quickly recognized the person. 

The imposing aura and the oppressive feeling were unmistakable-this was Gabriel. 

"Stop!" 

"Stop? Why?" 

Blocked by someone, Gabriel was not pleased. 

He kicked out, sending the person blocking him flying. 

"Miss Wallick, I'm in a bad mood. Tell your useless subordinates to stay away from me, or you'll have to cover their hospital bills!" 

Gabriel spoke domineeringly and continued to approach Matilda. 

Today, he had come for revenge and wouldn't show any mercy. 

Many of the Southern Heaven Association's subordinates downstairs had also been beaten by him a while ago. 

Other black-clad subordinates wanted to step forward to stop him, but Matilda said, "You all leave, just guard the elevator and stairs!" 

Several black-clad subordinates obeyed and left the corridor. 

With no further obstruction, Gabriel walked up to Matilda, giving her a quick glance. 

A figure in an ancient robe suddenly appeared mysteriously behind Matilda. 

Matilda raised her right hand and said coldly, "Elder Eden, no need to panic. Go down first; I'll talk to him!" 

"Yes, Miss Matilda!" 

The mysterious old man's figure flickered and inexplicably disappeared from the corridor. 

Although Matilda was quite powerful herself, after the incident at the Winner Takes All club last time, Elder Eden, one of the Three Elders of Southern Heaven Association, had become her personal guard. 

Gabriel looked up and down at this extraordinary woman, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile, "You are impressive and fearless! You stabbed me a knife and dared to face me alone, worthy of being a woman who can contend with Vicky Barnes." 

Though it sounded like praise, it was sincere.
