Stanley went to the hospital as soon as he returned to Beachmarsh City. He had to come to visit Jewel since she was injured.
When the door of the ward was pushed open, Jewel was not asleep, instead, she was resting with her eyes closed.
Listening to the footsteps and the mature male scent, she didn't have to open her eyes to know who the person was.
"Ouch." she whispered in a low voice.
She put up a great act by looking very pitiful.
Stanley pulled a chair over and sat down. Jewel slowly opened her eyes, and there was a trace of confusion in her eyes. "Stanley? W-When did you come in?"
As she spoke, she struggled to get up.
Stanley held her shoulders down. "Don't move. You should rest."
Jewel lay down gently, looking as pale as snow. "How do you know I'm in the hospital?"
"I heard it in the radio."
"I knew it. It must be the work of the paparazzi when I was admitted to the hospital. I have asked my agent to deal with it and think of a way to suppress this matter."
Stanley nodded. "I'll find a way to solve it. Have a good rest."
Jewel answered weakly.
Before he came here, Stanley had already contacted the hospital. He asked about Jewel's condition briefly and knew that she was seriously injured, so he immediately came here.
After keeping her company for a long while, Stanley got up and was about to leave when she muttered.
"Stanley..."
Jewel took his hand. "Can't you accompany me for a while longer?"
"You need to rest, and I still have something to do, so I have to go now." Stanley pushed her hand away. "I'll come again tomorrow."
Jewel was disappointed, but there was nothing she could do. "Okay then."
Stanley didn't ask who hurt her even as he was leaving. Jewel looked at his back and couldn't help blurting, "Stanley, don't you want to know who hit me?" "I don't have to. No matter who hurt you, I'll make him pay the price."
However, at this moment, he would never expect that Sharon was involved in this incident. He assumed that it was another unnamed celebrity who had a grudge against Jewel.
"Stanley, is it because of my brother that you treat me so well?"
Jewel was moved, but she hoped that he loved her and he did it out of love.
Stanley thought of the final words his comrade-in-arms said before he died.
"Take care of Jewel. She is my only sister. Take care of her."
That was why for so many years, Stanley had given Jewel the best of everything as a form of compensation.
Stanley returned to the villa. The house was empty and eerily quiet.
He came to the second floor, thinking that he would see the figure of Sharon in the bedroom since there was no one downstairs, but the bedroom was empty as well.
He frowned.
He took out his mobile phone and called her, but after he got through, he heard a mechanical female voice from the phone, "Sorry, the number you dialed has been switched off. Please try again later."
Stanley tossed his phone away, annoyed.
The man was irritated by her words. "She's still breathing, isn't she? She won't die so soon! I warn you, shut up or I'll split you up!"
Sharon was so angry that her whole body trembled and her eyes turned red with hatred. "Y-You are inhumane!"
The man sneered and said, "You're still cursing me, huh? You really have a death wish. Do you know who's coming after you this time? Have you ever heard of the Jones Family? Even our police chief doesn't dare to offend such a big shot like him, but you've literally beaten Mr. Jones' woman. Mr. Jones personally ordered us to send you to jail!"
Sharon's body went limp and she fell to the ground. She felt as if a large boulder pressed on her chest that she couldn't breathe. Her gazes were black and her chest was painful.
It was him!
Hah!
Sure enough, Jewel was his most important person!
And she was nothing.
Closing her eyes, she lay down next to Melody and slowly curled up into a ball.
When Jimmy came over to get some files, he happened to witness the officer who came out of the detention room swearing. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you have some uncooperative prisoner?"
"Captain Hudson!"
The young police officer saluted with a smile and said respectfully, "There's a woman in there who beat someone up and almost killed the person. Now she has been arrested and detained. She is very noisy and rude, and she can't seem to be quiet for a moment!"
Such cases happened all the time in the police station that Jimmy didn't take it to heart. Instead, he asked curiously, "A woman? A relationship dispute again?"
In the past few years, there had been many cases of fighting and killing between the wife and the mistress. Sometimes they would get homicide cases too.
The young officer cleared his throat and lowered his voice as he said, "The woman who was locked up was said to be Jewel Russell's fan. She stalked her idol and had a conflict somehow, then she hit Jewel with a brick and got her sent to the hospital. Jewel has a tough backup and connection, so she directly ordered our chief to give those two women a hard time."
