Chapter 209

a matter of time. Why make me mad for nothing?”Indeed, she’s as obstinate as a mule. Even I, who has great influence in Avenport, can’t sway her.“Don’t be mad. I’ll also be in a bad mood if you’re mad. Come and sit down here. I’ll tell you everything I know…”“Is that all? In this case, Nate probably didn’t hear anything useful just now. But since he’s now aware of the fact that Yulissa is still alive, he won’t possibly stay in the hospital and recuperate docilely. He’ll definitely do something. Now that he’s on our opposing side, anything he does will be troublesome for us. He’s free to go and do whatever he wants, so we can’t guard against such a thing. As such, we must act quickly,” Winnie analyzed after listening to Xavier.“Yes, but we can hire people—” “Shh! Someone’s here.”Following Winnie’s warning, Xavier swiftly fell silent.In no time, Nate and the others returned.Winnie glimpsed Yolanda outside the door. Thus, she said to Xavier, “I’m going to seek Yolanda out. See you later.”However, Yolanda wanted to take off as soon as she spotted Winnie.Nonetheless, Winnie didn’t give her that chance. Striding forward, she grabbed Yolanda’s arm and stopped her from leaving.Yolanda shot her a glare. “Why are you everywhere? Hurry up and let go of me!”Instead of dropping her hold on the woman, Winnie increased the force of her grip instead.“You should be grateful for that. Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been anyone to care for your grandfather. Do you know that he suffered a fall at home today in his bid to chase after you? He even broke his leg!” Evidently, Yolanda didn’t believe her. “Are you insane? I don’t know why you’re stopping me from leaving, but I’d advise you to quit while you’re ahead if you’re joking about such a thing just to keep me here. No matter what, my grandfather was once your master.”“Follow me to the orthopedic department if you don’t believe me and see whether your grandfather is having his leg placed in a cast!”Winnie couldn’t be bothered to yak with her anymore. If her grandfather weren’t my master, I wouldn’t even care about her!Even now, she was still being patient.Dragging Yolanda along, she stalked toward the elevator. But the woman kept refusing to cooperate, struggling and even leaving scratch marks on her arm with her fingernails.At long last, Winnie snapped. Locking Yolanda’s arms behind her back, she kicked her all the way to the elevator.That caused quite a scene. Seeing that, the few patients’ family members in the elevator exited it early although they obviously hadn’t arrived at their desired floors, afraid that they would be caught in the crossfire.“Let go of me, Winnie! You’ll regret this!”“You’re the one who’ll be regretting it if you don’t go and see your grandfather today!”After saying that, Winnie flung Yolanda to a corner of the elevator.Then, she flipped through her phone for the video of Sebastian in a wheelchair and showed it to her.As Yolanda stared at the phone screen, she finally started panicking. “My grandfather is really in the hospital? Is he okay?”“Are you asking me this? You’re his family, so you should be asking the doctor that question.”While they were talking, they had already arrived at the third floor. Winnie lifted her hand and snagged her phone back from Yolanda before motioning for the latter to go out with her eyes.At once, Yolanda headed for the orthopedic department. Winnie, on the other hand, sat on the chair in the hospital corridor.She only got to her feet when she saw Yolanda wheeling Sebastian, who already had a cast on his leg, out.When Sebastian caught sight of Winnie’s back from a near distance away, he said to Yolanda beside him, “Fortunately, Nini drove me to the hospital this time. It was also thanks to her that I found you. Go over and thank her.”Yolanda had her arms twisted behind her back and had been kicked all the way over earlier, so she was still aching then.Frowning deeply, she huffed with a chilly expression, “No way!”“Why not? I owe her a debt of gratitude. I’m old and feeble, so you should repay that debt of gratitude on my
