Chapter 424 Give Him a Chance?
Michael stared at her with concern and confusion. "He was just trying to harass you!"
"I didn't say anything, so what does it have to do with you? Just mind your own business!"
Chloe retorted and moved to help the man in the plaid shirt back into the private room. She secretively returned the phone to his pocket.
"Chloe, are you yelling at me because of this man?"
Chloe glanced at Michael helplessly. "You're not a child anymore. Can you stop being so childish?"
The noise outside grew louder, so James opened the door of the private room and stepped out.
The man in the plaid shirt contorted his face in pain and insisted on going to the hospital for a check-up, threatening to sue Michael for malicious injury.
With no other choice, James and Chloe were forced to accompany the man to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Michael's hand had struck a nearby glass cabinet, shattering it and causing his hand to bleed profusely.
Upon seeing the injury, Ethan was alarmed. "Mr. Shawn, your hand is bleeding!"
Michael fixed his gaze on Chloe's retreating figure and shook his head irritably. "It's just a minor injury. Not a big deal," he muttered.
Ethan said, "Mr. Shawn, l think you'd better go to the hospital for bandaging."
Michael eventually agreed to go to the hospital due to Chloe's presence.
While the doctor bandaged Michael's hand, the man in the plaid shirt sat nearby, his earlier drunkenness now replaced by sobriety.
Realizing the gravity of his situation after offending Michael, he was filled with dread.
Michael spoke coldly, "If you continue to harass her, next time I won't just send you to the hospital."
The man's shoulders visibly shrank in fear.
"Sir, you can't threaten the patient, or I'll call the police!"
The nurse sternly stared at Michael.
Michael was momentarily speechless.
Outside the door, James and Chloe stood together. Their expressions were grim.
"The software was discreetly installed, and its presence remained undetected, suggesting that all should be well." Chloe reassured James.
It was a stroke of luck that Chloe was spotted by Michael upon her return, for had she not been, the unfinished task would have ignited her fury.
"Why would he suddenly act like that? What did that man in the plaid shirt do to you?"
James was genuinely curious about Michael's uncharacteristic outburst.
"Not a single finger has touched me yet," Chloe replied.
Her voice was laced with frustration and a hint of choked emotion.
