Upon hearing Denise's words, Benjamin's gaze shifted to Anthony's phone. He took the phone from his hand and began to examine the person on the screen. When he saw that face, Benjamin's eyes narrowed slightly.
A memory of when he was at the hospital came to mind. He recalled how Denise looked when she looked up and apologized to that person and how their eyes were filled with complex emotions when they smiled at Denise. Benjamin had felt a sense of disgust at that moment, which was probably also what made the impression of that person even more profound. “I think it's him!”
“Right, it's him...” Denise nodded fervently and said with great certainty.
She felt a sense of familiarity after seeing the photo. However, Denise was too stunned to react, having seen him so suddenly.
Anthony listened to their conversation, his expression turning serious. He looked at them and asked with great uncertainty, “Are you saying you met this person at the hospital just now?”
Benjamin nodded earnestly. “That's right. He almost bumped into Denise in the hospital corridor. Although there's some age difference, his face is still very easy to recognize!” he said.
Benjamin did not look at the photo when it was sent to them the previous day, so he had no idea what Denise meant when she said he looked familiar. However, not that he had seen the photo, he could still recognize the person, even though he had aged a little compared to the photo.
Upon hearing this, Anthony murmured, “It's been a few years since Magus was betrayed, so it's only natural he's aged a bit...” As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something and looked ahead. “Thalia.”
Before he could finish speaking, Thalia suddenly turned the steering wheel and made an emergency U-turn.
Miguel was sleeping at that moment, so when they made such an abrupt turn, he had almost slammed into the door.
He opened his eyes and looked absolutely bewildered. Miguel glanced outside and then at Thalia in the passenger seat, asking, “W-What's going on?”
“Sit tight and shut up,” Thalia said, taking another sharp turn and then speeding back the way they came.
Perhaps it was because of the tacit understanding between them, but Thalia immediately knew what Anthony wanted to say as soon as he spoke since they had spent so much time together.
Right then, Benjamin finally realized what they were thinking. He looked right at Anthony and asked, “Tony, what do you plan to do?”
“Shouldn't we ask Thalia?” Anthony answered, directing the question to Thalia.
After all, she was the real executor of their plan, so naturally, they would have to depend on her for this.
However, as Thalia drove, her eyes fixed on the road ahead, a gleam flashed across her eyes. After a while, a cold smile tugged at her lips as she said, “I haven't decided what to do yet, but it will definitely be the last thing he wants!”
Anthony listened and nodded with great satisfaction.
Yes. This is the Thalia I know.
“Mmm, the angel is becoming a devil!” Denise commented.
Thalia didn't say a word and rushed back to the hospital as fast as she could.
The car came to a stop, and Thalia said, “I'll go in first!” Without waiting for a response, she immediately got out of the car and headed in.
Miguel, on the other hand, had a puzzled look on his face. “What are you guys trying to do?”
Anthony got out of the car and turned to look at Denise behind him. “You stay in the car and let Miguel protect you here!”
Upon seeing the situation, Denise immediately spoke up. “No, since we came together, we should obviously act together!”
“But—”
“Just let her join us, Tony. Denise really did a great job today!” Benjamin said.
“I was just worried it's shock her!”
“She's not as delicate as you think!” Benjamin replied.
Upon hearing this, Denise nodded eagerly.
Anthony looked at Benjamin helplessly. “Go on and spoil her then!” After saying that, he glanced at Miguel. “Take good care of Denise.”
Miguel was still in a state of confusion, but he could still understand the command. He nodded blankly and said, “All right!”
And so, Anthony followed closely behind Thalia.
Upon seeing this, the rest of them immediately followed suit.
