Anna and Patrick returned to the hospital after lunch while Wayne went home alone. On the way back, Wayne received a call from Maria

“Is Anna there? | called her several times, but she didn’t return my calls.” She asked.

“When did you call her?”

“About an hour ago.”

Wayne realized Anna was in the lab at that moment. He said, “She was in the laboratory at the time, and there was no signal. What happened?”

“Something happened to Matthew,” Maria said.

Shocked, Wayne slammed on the brakes immediately. He clutched the steering wheel tightly, feeling worried.

“Are you all right?” In a panic, Maria asked.

“I’m fine. How is Matthew doing?”

“His arm had three stitches. | took him back to the hotel after the doctor treated his wounds. | advised him to rest for a while, but he didn’t listen to me. He’s working in his room right now.”

Wayne clenched his fist around his phone, saying a bit anxiously, “Don’t tell Anna about it, please. I’ll get there as soon as possible. Could you gather information about this project and email it to me?”

“Sure.” Maria exhaled a sigh of relief after telling Wayne of this.

After hanging up the phone, Wayne pulled over to the side of the road. He thought to himself, Matthew’s been through a lot since he was a kid, and this must be very painful for him. Actually, | didn’t want Matthew 529 Miss You

At the same time, Anna and Patrick both went back to the hospital. After lunch, Anna had been feeling uneasy She walked absentmindedly to her office after leaving a patient’s room.
