Chapter 978 Rylan, Am I Right?
Rylan rushed to the hospital as soon as he heard the news. Everyone was there. Seeing him appear, Ronin immediately stood up. “Hey, Rylan. What brings you here?”
Rylan grabbed his hand anxiously. ” Ronin, how is Catherine?”
At the mention of Catherine, Ronin instantly became uneasy. He was furious. He wanted to kill everyone who hurt Catherine. “It was all Selene’s fault. If it weren’t for her hurting Catherine, Catherine wouldn’t be like this now. She’s still in the operating room.”
After hearing about Catherine’s recent situation, Rylan’s face immediately turned a bit pale, and his footsteps were a bit unsteady. “She’s still undergoing surgery?”
Ronin shook his head, his eyes turning red. “It’s been over three hours already.
Rylan tightly grabbed Ronin’s hand and asked, “Do you know why Selene repeatedly targets Catherine?”
“It’s because of Branden. Selene is jealous that Catherine is too excellent. She has always had a crush on Branden and she thought she could get Branden if she kills Catherine. She doesn’t know herself at all. She doesn’t deserve Branden.” Ronin became increasingly angry as he spoke, and he was raging with anger.
Rylan’s expression was unreadable. No one knew what he was thinking at the moment, only that he looked very gloomy.
Seeing this, Ronin reached out and gently pushed him. “Rylan, are you alright?”
Rylan reacted and said in a cold voice, I’m fine. I was just wondering how I could find Selene. She dared to hurt Catherine. She must be made to pay for it.”
Although Ronin was very angry, he knew in his heart that this matter was not that simple. “You don’t need to look for her. We’ve arranged for many people to look for her, but none of them have found her. We still don’t know where she is hiding. She must know that we are all looking for her. It’s difficult to catch her now.”
It was said that the Duncans didn’t find Selene after they rushed to the scene to get Catherine out with Thomas and the others. Selene disappeared as if she was nowhere to be found and no one had any information about her whereabouts at the moment.
Rylan narrowed his eyes and looked ahead with a threatening gaze. “I’m going to find her out even if it’s hard.”
The news of the end of the surgery instantly caught the attention of both Rylan and Ronin.
Ronin turned around and ran toward the operating room, with Rylan following closely behind.
The operating room was surrounded by people, and if it weren’t for Branden’s intimidation, there would only be more people.
Not long after, the door to the operating room opened.
Catherine was lying on the hospital bed, her delicate face was bloodless. It was the first time everyone had seen her so weak.
The nurse asked everyone to leave and said that Catherine needed to be moved to a special ward and that she could not be visited by anyone yet.
Thomas held his last breath and was helped out by the medical staff.
The crowd originally wanted to ask him about the condition, but seeing his weak appearance, they couldn’t bear to ask any further and could only let him rest first.
Carlo, who was standing by, suddenly received a call. “You found Zobber? Okay, I’ll be right there.”
He hung up the phone and left without even telling Branden. No one knew what was going on. Everyone could only look in the direction he left in confusion.
Rylan looked at Ronin with a confused look on his face. “What happened? Why did he mention Zobber?”
Ronin pulled Rylan aside and whispered, “I’m not sure exactly. Not long after Zobber arranged for a champagne tower, Mr. Duncan was poisoned and was almost killed. Now everyone in the Duncans suspects that it was Zobber who did the poisoning. They’ve been searching for Zobber’s whereabouts. It looks like they found her.”
Rylan’s eyebrows furrowed and his face looked very gloomy. “Since we can’t visit Catherine just yet, I’ll go and arrange the company. Keep me informed if you have any news.”
Rylan wasn’t a doctor and couldn’t help, and it didn’t matter if he stayed or left, so Ronin didn’t stop him. “Okay.
In the small villa in the suburbs, Zobber woke up refreshed after a full sleep. She was about to go downstairs when she saw Finn rushing up in a hurry. She frowned and stared at him. “What the hell. Why are you looking at me that way?”
Finn immediately attacked without saying a word. He attacked hard and desperately as if he wanted to kill Zobber.
Zobber dodged while asking about the situation, “Are you crazy?”
Facing Zobber’s chatter, Finn finally didn’t hold back and said, “I advise you to shut up. No one can save you.”
Zobber cursed Black Robe angrily for not keeping his word and being ungrateful.
She had been chased by the Duncans and was already exhausted. It didn’t take long for her to be unable to dodge Finn’s attack.
As she was about to be put to death by Finn, Withal rushed out in a teasing tone and shouted, “Zobber, don’t panic. I’ll help you.”
Hearing his teasing tone, Zobber kicked him in anger. “You’re coming so slowly. You want to see me die in front of you.”
Watching the two of them joking, Finn’s smile grew stronger and stronger, with a triumphant grin on his lips. “You came just in time, saving me from having to look for you one by one.
He waved his hand in a gesture, and then dozens of thugs came out from the dark.
Withal’s gaze scanned contemptuously around before finally landing on Finn. ” Do you think you can stop us?”
Before Finn could say anything, a cold voice came out abruptly. “If he can’t, what about me?”
Black Robe then appeared in front of the crowd.
Zobber and Withal glanced at each other, a hint of a smile coming from both of their eyes.
Withal turned around and looked Black Robe up and down. “Indeed, I can’t beat you, but I have a helper.”
Black Robe assumed the helper Withal was talking about was Zobber and sneered dismissively. “Her?”
Zobber quickly waved her hand. “Not me. I’m tired. I can’t fight anymore.”
Before Black Robe realized what Zobber meant, the closed door was instantly slammed open.
Subconsciously, everyone saw Paxton and the others coming.
Black Robe stared at Zobber and laughed coldly. “Do you think they are here for you or me?”
“We’re naturally here for you.” The one who answered him was not Zobber, but a voice that Black Robe was very familiar with.
His body stiffened instantly, and he turned back to look at the person who just spoke. After seeing the person clearly, he widened his eyes in disbelief. “Catherine, aren’t you…”
Catherine smiled coldly, her face no longer as pale and weak as it was just now when she was in the hospital. “I should be lying dying in a hospital bed. Am I right, Rylan?”
