Another reporter stepped forward and stood in front of Thea. “Ms. Thea, what evidence do you have to support your claims? You could face legal charges for slandering them.”
“I don’t have any evidence. I simply explained what Centennial tried to do to the Callahans this morning. I know that they’re likely going to take revenge, but we’re not scared.”
After she finished speaking, Thea turned around and entered the hospital.
It was getting really hard to suppress the poison at this point. The simple act of standing was already taking its toll on her.
Thea had no choice but to forcefully expel the poison from her body as soon as possible.
She quickly rushed into the hospital, went up to the office on the second floor, and locked the door. Then, she began to circulate her energy to get rid of the poison.
In her panicked state, Thea made a mistake as soon as she began. She almost lost control of her True Energy. This in turn allowed the toxin to spread rapidly throughout her bloodstream. Her expression darkened as she started perspiring all over. Gritting her teeth, Thea knew she had to act quickly and attempted to use her True Energy to force out the poison. However, because she was so rattled, she continuously made mistake after mistake.
Outside the hospital…
The reporters were still swarming around the entrance of the hospital.
Trying to take charge of the situation, Lex stepped forward and accepted the numerous requests for interviews in Thea’s stead.
He publicly shared about the Callahans’ dilemma and pledged never to bow down to underhanded tactics employed by Centennial Corporation.
His goal was to get the media's attention.
Meanwhile, James was still rushing to the hospital.
By the time he arrived, Jonathan was already long gone and the reporters were already dispersing. Only a few onlookers were still loitering outside Century Hospital.
James walked over to the Callahans and asked urgently, “Where’s Thea?”
David pointed to the hospital behind them and said, “She went inside.”
James did not say another word and dashed into the hospital.
He grabbed someone on the way and asked about Thea’s whereabouts. After getting further details, he quickly headed to the second-floor office.
Upon arriving at the office, James knocked on the door.
“W-Who is it…?”
