When Huston entered the ward, Evelyn was still unconscious. However, he could tell that she was very uncomfortable. Even when she was unconscious, her brows were tightly knitted together.
There was something fixed on her neck because her movements would affect her head. The wound on her forehead had been carefully dealt with. The white bandage made her palm-sized face look weaker.
In the past few days, to make it easier for her to get an infusion, the nurse left a drip needle on the back of her right hand. It was fixed by a white tape, and the light yellow anti-inflammatory liquid was injected into her body, which made Huston's heart tighten.
He didn't stay in the ward for long. He asked the nurse next to her, "How long will it take for her to wake up?"
The nurse quickly replied, "I am not sure. But based on the current situation, it will take three to four hours since the patient was weak. The longer the better. The patient can have a good rest and regain strength."
He looked deeply at the petite figure for a long time before looking away. In a low voice, he ordered, "Stay here and guard. If there is anything, ask Kevin to contact me."
"Yes, Mr. Lloyd."
After saying that, Huston turned around and left the ward. He strode into the elevator with his long legs and went all the way down to the underground parking lot. He opened the door and got into the driver's seat. Without hesitation, he started the car and the black Bentley rushed out like an arrow leaving the bowstring.
At eight o'clock in the evening, he drove to the entrance of the Red Cauldron.
The security manager had not seen Mr. Lloyd for a long time. He was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses. He quickly stepped forward and opened the door for him. "Mr. Lloyd."
Marcellus responded and stood up. Looking at the stern figure at the door, he put down the cigar in his mouth on the crystal ashtray next to him and said, "Come here, Huston..."
Before Marcellus could finish his last word, Huston had already bent down and pulled the man up from the ground. The man was less than 5 feet 9 inches, and the tip of his foot was lifted off the ground.
Huston stared at the plain-looking, ugly face. At the thought of such a coward who was trembling with fear had hurt Evelyn like that, the flames in his chest burned hotter and hotter.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and asked the man meaningfully, "Was it you who hit Evelyn with the car?"
