"Thank you." Elizabeth smiled gently, "By the way, is Doctor Bai all right?"
"Isaac will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Let's go to see him together tomorrow."
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, "He's going to leave the hospital tomorrow? Why doesn't he stay there for a few more days?"
"He's in a hurry to leave there, so let it be."
Elizabeth nodded and said, "By the way, did you find his mom and Adele's mom?"
Hearing this, James looked a little serious. He pinched the place between his eyebrows which was a little painful and said, "No." After that, he gritted his teeth and added fiercely, "Maxwell is so scheming!"
Elizabeth got anxious, "What should we do? I don't know if he treats them well."
"Don't worry. Maxwell did that to force Isaac and Adele. But now it seems..."
"What? Does he really want to lock them up and not let them go?" As Elizabeth said this, she was very angry, "If Doctor Bai knows this, what should we do?"
After that, she asked worriedly, "Does Doctor Bai know about this?"
James nodded and said, "Yes." She remembered that Isaac had said that his mother was not in good health. As for Adele's mother... he wanted to apologize to her face to face because of Adele's death.
But he could't even find her mother, not to mention to apologize. He must be very anxious, right?
"Then what should we do?" Elizabeth frowned and asked, "Adele has died... why does Old Master Bai refuse to let them go? What else does he want to do?"
James lit up a cigarette. His eyes were gloomy, and Elizabeth couldn't see his expression clearly in the smoke. After a while, he said lightly, "Soon, we will know what he wants to do."
Elizabeth was annoyed in heart. But since James didn't know about it, she didn't ask him more. She only hoped that Maxwell could let them go quickly.
James sucked on his cigarette and then put it out, "By the way, I called back at noon and Jane said that you went out." In fact, he knew where she went, but he pretended that he didn't know.
"Oh, I went out with Evelyn. It was too hot outside. After eating something, she said that she had the tickets to the exhibition, so we went to see it." Speaking of here, she did not intend to hide anything, because she had taken back the painting and he would know it sooner or later, "It's a painting exhibition of a famous painter, Sebastian. Do you know him?"
James raised his eyebrows and said, "I know."
"I actually saw him today." Seeing that she was a little excited, James smiled gently and said, "Really?"
"Yes." Elizabeth nodded and said, "By the way, he gave me a painting today. I liked that painting very much. I planned to buy it, but he insisted on giving it to me because I understood the meaning of the painting."
Hearing this, James stopped smiling instantly. He thought for a moment and frowned slightly. He looked at her and asked, "Did you say that he gave you a painting?"
"Yeah. What's wrong? You look... unhappy, don't you?"
"Oh, no. I just feel a little strange."
