Quinn was baffled as she watched Yvette, who was talking in her dream. She was not surprised that Yvette called Chuck as hubby, but she was shocked by the last sentence she uttered.
Did Yvette just say that Chuck had killed her grandfather?
"What's going on?" Quinn felt that this was unusual. In her perception, Chuck was just a little disgusting, but he was unlikely to kill someone. Besides, for the person to be his wife's grandfather made it even more improbable.
Quinn could not understand the situation.
She walked to Yvette's side and looked at the heavily injured woman. She then took out her mobile phone again and called Chuck, but he still didn't answer. Quinn felt angry and helpless.
What should she do?
After waiting for a while, the private doctor she had called finally came over. The doctor was also shocked when he saw Yvette, who was covered with wounds all over, and he couldn't help but ask, "President Miller, this woman is..."
"She's my friend. Tell me, how is she?" Quinn replied. She was startled because she knew this private doctor well and it was rare for him to have such expression on his face. What was wrong?
"Such a tough lady. The patient's willpower is too strong. Look at the spot where her hand is covering, I guess her ribs are nearly broken there, but she can still hold on. It's a rare sight. She could be someone from the army to have such strong willpower," the doctor said in astonishment.
Quinn was surprised. "Why was her willpower so strong? Did she go through something terrible for her to become like this?" She wondered.
"Then, what should we do now?" asked Quinn. She was concerned about saving Yvette because she was injured terribly. Not only that, but she was also Chuck's wife.
Thinking of this, Quinn snorted softly.
The doctor answered, "It's better for her to get a thorough examination in the hospital. Otherwise, there may be a risk of hidden injury. Some injuries can't be dragged for too long by simply relying on willpower."
"Okay, you should treat her first and give her some injection," Quinn told him. She felt that she had to ask Yvette's opinion on this matter.
After all, Yvette had said that she didn't want to be sent to the hospital. It would be best for Quinn to act accordingly.
"Okay." Then, the doctor began to give Yvette treatment while Quinn watched from the side. She snorted suddenly, "Chuck, your wife has ended up in this terrible state, yet you still don't answer the phone."
Three hours later, the private doctor had basically settled everything that he could do. After Quinn transferred the payment to his account, the doctor left.
It was already midnight, and Quinn was also sleepy. She fell asleep in a daze and suddenly heard a noise. It was her phone ringing. When Quinn saw that it was Chuck calling her, she felt a rage bubbling in her. "Hello, do you know how late is it? Why are you calling me at this hour?" She answered furiously.
Chuck was at a loss as to what to do. He had been looking for Yvette for the whole night, but he didn't find any clues. Through the camera footage, he saw Yvette entering an alley and then there were no more clues. His people were still looking for her.
In the middle of the night, when Chuck was sighing in disappointment, he suddenly remembered that Quinn had tried to call him continuously. He wondered if something had happened to her, hence he dialed her number.
"I'm sorry. Why did you keep calling me?" Chuck felt that Quinn might have encountered an issue. After all, they came to Floriland together. If something bad did happen to Quinn, Chuck would not ignore it for sure.
"Let me tell you, I saw your..." Quinn paused and snorted. Wasn't it too late for him to say sorry at this time? But when Quinn was about to continue speaking, she suddenly saw that Yvette had woken up from her unconsciousness and was looking at Quinn while shaking her head.
"President Miller, what did you see?" Chuck asked curiously. He felt strange. What did Quinn see?
Quinn noticed Yvette's pleading eyes. Then, she went silent.
"President Miller, why are you not answering?" Chuck muttered, "If there's nothing else, I will hang up. I have to look for someone."
"Who are you looking for?" Quinn asked knowingly, looking at Yvette who got out of the bed.
There was silence for a few seconds on the phone, then he said, "My wife. I came to Floriland to look for my wife."
Chuck was very upset because he had yet to find any traces of Yvette. Where on earth was she?
"What's wrong with your wife? Why did she leave you?" Quinn asked. Yvette went to her side, and her eyes darkened.
"I... I, I killed her grandfather. She said she would never see me again," Chuck answered with difficulty and sighed.
