Stuck in you

"I don't know." Lucas clenched his slender fingers, a worried expression emerging on his face. "We need to get there first."

Claris raised her eyebrows in curiosity, wondering why they had to go in such a hurry. It most likely had something to do with Rachel.

Rachel and Jack arrived ahead of them, with Kevin and Executive Fang following behind.

Kevin was not his usual self. His skin was dry and his lips were cracking. There were dark circles underneath his eyes. It looked like he hadn't slept at all.

Rachel was shocked by his appearance, "Kevin, are you okay?"

He tried to feign a small smile. "I'm okay. It's nothing."

He insisted that he was okay, but kept zoning out. He was obviously not in the proper mindset today.

Executive Fang was not in a good mood either. He sat across his nephew, glancing at him with a worried expression. As he greeted Rachel and Jack, he seemed too quiet and not himself.

Sensing that something important had happened, she exchanged a worried look with Jack.

Chief Ren entered the room alone. After a brief greeting and formal introductions, he immediately got down to business.

As he spoke to them, he was calm and confident, unlike last night when he had been timid in front of Jack.

He first apologized to Jack and Rachel.

"I'm sorry for what happened yesterday." An awkward silence came after. The tension in the room was thick and nobody spoke to one another.

Jack crossed his slender hands over his stomach, his face expressionless.

He was a little curious as to why Chief Ren's attitude was much calmer and more composed compared to yesterday.

Maybe Chief Ren had something he could turn the tables.

After apologizing, Chief Ren shifted his attention to the uncle and nephew.

"A tip was made to the police. However, the arrest that we conducted last night was a mistake. We didn't have enough evidence against the suspects. I apologize for what I have done to you!"

Kevin's pale face remained blank. Although he sat straight, his body was motionless.

On the other hand, Executive Fang was calm. He bent his index finger and knocked gently on the table. "Chief Ren, it's better to thoroughly investigate this matter and start from the very beginning."

Chief Ren said with an amiable smile, "That is true. If the patient's death has nothing to do with Doctor Kevin, then he will be safe."

However, if the doctor was responsible for what happened, then that would be probable evidence for a lawsuit.
