But she was not.
As he was thinking about this, his phone suddenly rang.He lowered his head to take a look and was suddenly stunned when he saw the number.
It was a number he had memorized by heart all these years.
He frowned and picked up the call.
As soon as the call went through, Tanya's voice came from the other end.
"Mr.Joel, I called you to ask what happened to Nora.I was in class just now.After seeing her message, I couldn't get through to her."
Joel's eyes darkened slightly as he briefly explained the situation.
Tanya was silent for a long time before saying, "Nora's medical skills are indeed very impressive.It's impossible for such a medical accident to happen.This is definitely an accident.No matter what happens to her, Mr.Smith, you have to ensure her safety!"
After saying that, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "If you can save Nora, I can teach Mia how to dance!"
The words Joel was about to say were stuck in his throat.
In Tanya's eyes, was he such a man who did not even care about his cousin's life? A bitter smile appeared on his lips.
"Don't worry.I won't let anything happen to her”
After hanging up, Joel looked at the butler.
"Contact the lawyer and bail Nora out first!"
The butler lowered his eyes in disappointment and obediently said, "Yes" Yvonne bit her lips.
She was already like this, yet he still wanted to bail her out ...It seemed like blood relations were indeed different.
However, no one expected that the butler would return half an hour later with unexpected news.
With a complicated expression, he stared at Joel and said, "The lawyer went to the police station, but he didn't expect them to say that Miss Nora can't be bailed out’' Joel's pupils shrank at these words.
"Why?"
The butler shook his head.
"I don't know.It seems like some power is involved.When the lawyer gets the medical test results, Miss Nora's matter must go according to the normal procedures.Unless Old Maddy survives, it will be difficult for Miss Nora to be released this time."
There were other forces? In New York, other than the Hunts, was there anyone more powerful than the Smiths? Joel was certain that there was not.
At least not openly.
Unless the other party was...
As he was thinking, the butler said, "Sir, do you think we should go through other channels or find someone?"
The Smiths had a lot of connections.
However, Joel seemed to have thought of something.
His pupils constricted.
"There's no need.We'll go to the hospital to see Old Maddy!"
If that person had made a move, they would have to follow the proper procedures.
When they arrived at the hospital, they realized that Old Maddy was still undergoing surgery.
The lights were still on and he had not come out yet.
The attending doctor waiting outside was very anxious.
"Old Maddy's nerves have been damaged.We can't find the reason for his nose and mouth bleeding, but all his physical signs are going downhill.There's nothing we can do!"
Joel frowned.
"Haven't you seen such a situation before?"
The attending doctor shook his head.
"No...but I've heard of it!" Joel looked at the attending doctor.
"Where have you heard of it?"
The attending doctor said, "Many years ago, there was a woman overseas who was also bleeding from her mouth and nose for no reason.She was on her last breath.In the hospital, they had also checked all parts of her body, but they could not find any problems.In the end, it was Anti who saved her.Later on, Anti could not explain the reason either.It seemed to be caused by some imbalance in medicine..."
Anti? It was this Anti again! Joel looked at the butler.
"Contact Anti immediately and tell her to come and save Old Maddy!"
"...Yes!"
said the butler.
When the butler went to contact Anti, Joel frowned and stared at the operation theater.
He made another call and invited all the specialists he could get from New York.
During the specialist's consultation, Joel stood at the side and did not interfere.
This was not within his ability.
His greatest strength was that he did not dabble in things he did not understand.
After handing Old Maddy's life to a trustworthy doctor, he picked up his phone and contacted the police.He wanted to find out what was going on with Nora and why she could not be bailed out.
Yvonne replied ambiguously, "All the medical teams of the Smiths are here, they're treating him as we speak."
When Justin heard this, he said bluntly, "I'll go to the police station”
With that, he hung up.
Yvonne stared at her phone.
Actually, the most important thing now was not to bail Nora out.
It was just like when he first heard that Nora had been taken away, Joel's first reaction was not to bail her out.
As the police station was the safest place, nothing would happen to her if she stayed there.
Old Maddy was the most important thing.
After Joel found out about the entire matter, he quickly sent a doctor to the hospital.
Otherwise, Old Maddy would have died long ago.
Only if Old Maddy was alive, would Nora be released.
Even if Justin went to the police station to deal with them, it might not be of much use! Instead, it would waste time! Yvonne clenched her hands into fists and lowered her gaze, hiding the viciousness and hatred in her eyes.
Elsewhere.
Joel was picking up the call.
"Who did you say won't bail her out?"
His contact was on the other end of the line, and his voice was very low.
"It's Captain Ford'’ Captain Ford...
Morris? It was as he had expected.Only Morris had the ability to do so! But why would Morris target Nora? Joel narrowed his eyes.
"What's going on?" The other party sighed secretly.
"This is confidential.Forget it, I'll tell you.Captain Ford has given an order to the police station.He will personally investigate all the cases involving Miss Nora! Especially when it involves…”
The person on the other end paused before continuing, "...When a life is on the line, bail cannot be granted.He's worried that Miss Nora will escape after being bailed out' Escape...
Joel frowned.
This order should not have been given for an ordinary girl.
It was more suitable to be given to fugitives and murderers! They were afraid that she would find an opportunity to escape.
Once she was arrested, she would be detained for 24 hours and would not be let go of.
