"Oh, it's Mr. Fuller." One of the doctors reached out and said, "I've sanitized my hand."
Shane shook his hand and said, "No problem. You've worked hard. How's my friend?"
"Pretty decent. But he will be transferred to the ICU ward to be observed for an hour. If nothing goes wrong within an hour, he'll be fine."
"Thank you."
"This is our responsibility." The doctor smiled.
When they heard that Avery was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. After he was sent to the ICU ward, everyone looked at him and left one by one, leaving only Charlotte, Shane, Zoe, and Peter.
Charlotte stood outside the window and stared at the person in the ward, her heart aching.
Although Avery liked acting weird, he was still very good- looking. Especially his eyes, those peach blossom eyes that make people jealous. Although his nose wasn't very tall, it was delicate. And because of this nose, he didn't look too angular when pretending to be feminine. Instead, he looked very handsome.
But now.
This abnormally handsome and beautiful face was full of scars. His lips were so torn apart that no one could bear to look straight at it. Even his brow bones were broken and filled with stitches.
"Avery has always said that he was only playing dumb, and he was great at that. This is the first time I've seen him being defeated." Charlotte turned around. She couldn't bear to look at the person in the ward.
"Lottie..." Zoe felt sorry for her.
"I'm fine." Charlotte smiled at her. "What can happen to me? I'm just a little frustrated. Does the Stevens Family think that they can just do whatever they want?"
No one could answer her question.
Even if they were in River City and it was his territory, even if he could also do whatever he wanted, Shane was still unable to answer her question.
"Ms. Emerson." However, it was Peter who broke the silence. "Jane Corporation has provided us with their surveillance clips. It was an ordinary staff member who pushed Avery down. He pushed Avery into the elevator shaft when the elevator was under maintenance. The fact that Avery is still alive now is a miracle."
The elevator shaft.
At the bottom of the elevator were countless minuscule components, and also huge pulleys, and so on.
One could easily lose their life if they fell in there. Avery was indeed lucky. To put it more romantically, maybe Irena saw him in trouble from heaven, so she protected him.
"Where is that person right now?" Charlotte asked.
"At the police station."
"Can we see him?"
"There should be no problem. Rick has registered to meet him. The information was also sent from Rick. He seems to be quite angry."
"We only introduced Avery to Rick again because we wanted to help him deal with the Stevens Family. So, of course he's angry when such a thing happened. At the same time, he also needs to prevent this from offending Shane and me." Charlotte sighed and looked at the person beside her. "Shane, what do you think?"
Shane remained silent as he shook his head.
It was difficult to say whether this matter had anything to do with Rick or not.
An hour later, the doctor announced that Avery was fine and could be transferred to the general ward. The four of them were overjoyed. Charlotte immediately let Peter contact Rick.
Rick didn't say much. He just sent an address.
Cole immediately drove them to the police station.
At the police station.
Rick sat in the lounge with a glass of hot water in his hand. He stared aimlessly with a dull look in his eyes.
Kendall came to his side several times but always ended up being blocked by his assistant. She stamped her foot angrily and said, "Rick, how much longer are you going to sit there and do nothing?"
"I'm sorry, Miss Stevens. Please don't disturb Mr. Jane, or I will send you away through special means." The assistant stood firmly in front of Rick.
"You!" Kendall was choked with anger.
At that moment.
Charlotte was the first to open the door. Rick looked up when he heard the sound. She was leaning in Shane's arms with Zoe and Peter by her side. The four of them looked like two sweet couples. He was slightly stunned at the sight of that, but soon he regained his senses, stood up, and walked towards them.
