It was the dead of night when Natasha was sent to the hospital for treatment.

The preliminary diagnosis by the doctor revealed that she had two broken ribs, a mild concussion, and

→ plenty of minor wounds. Thankfully, none of her injuries were life-threatening.

As Maverick sat on the bench outside the operating room, thoughts known only to himself swirled

about in his head.

After the incident, he had Noah report it to the Mossey family.

It wasn’t until the sun had risen that Jerome and Madelyn finally arrived at the hospital.

“Oh, my poor daughter! How could something like this have happened?”

Madelyn’s cries echoed throughout the corridor, but strangely enough, her eyes were devoid of tears. In fact, one could even say she looked quite happy with the whole thing.

On the contrary, Jerome walked over to Maverick with a sorrowful expression on his face. Stopping in front of the latter, he offered the young man some comforting words after seeing the dark look in his eyes.

Without replying to Jerome, Maverick said politely. Please have a seat, Mr. and Mrs. Mossey.”

Jerome pressed on, “Mr. Wright, what happened? How did Nat get hurt? Who did this to her?”

It wasn’t so long ago that Inez got into an accident and was left in a vegetative state. And now, Natasha got herself into trouble, too. Is someone targeting the Mossey family? Or is Lady Luck just not on my family’s side?

After remaining silent for a while, Maverick replied, “Noah’s already looking into this.”

Noticing that Maverick wasn’t in the mood to talk, Jerome stopped pressing the issue and went over to sit on a nearby bench.

Just two minutes later, the light shining above the operating room door went out.

The doctor came out and said that Natasha’s operation was very successful. Except for the fact that she would have limited mobility for the time being, there was no major problem, and she was ready to be transferred to a normal VIP ward.
