Chapter 158
Lea told Yannis, “Rest. We’ll fly back to Vaporleon City tomorrow morning.”
Lea had planned to go back that morning, but Yannis’s external injuries were too serious. Furthermore, he wasn’t in a good mood. Lea decided to let him rest for another day.
The next morning, they flew to Vaporleon City. It was a private plane arranged by Alfred.
With the previous assassination attempt at the hotel, it was hard to guarantee that there would not be another attempt on the plane. Thus, Alfred specially arranged for a private plane.
Alfred did not reveal the reason for this arrangement to Lea. He only said that the private plane. would pass by Vaporleon City and could fly them back. He even took time to send them off at the airport.
Craig drove. Shannon, Yannis, and Lea got out of the car and went to where the private plane was. They traveled light and had almost no luggage.
Alfred sat in the car and did not get out. He watched them leave.
Alfred had brought Lea back to the family residence to see Blake. Lea also saw Milton. Alfred did not want to be seen often with Lea now.
Craig stayed in the car for a while.
“Mr. Andrews, at Kentside Garden the afternoon before yesterday…” Craig proceeded to tell Alfred about Milton stopping their car and Lea’s reaction.
Alfred’s expression darkened, and his eyes grew dark and gloomy. The veins on his clenched fists. bulged. “Send West out to monitor Milton. Report to me at once if Milton ever makes a move on Miss Berry.”
Craig was shocked.
The Shadow Directive was a team that Alfred had spent a lot of effort to nurture over the years. They were like phantoms. They were almost omnipotent and had outstanding abilities. They only took orders from Alfred. They were a powerful and perfect tool, like a robot.
West Ross was ranked first in the team.
Craig thought Alfred would let them take more valuable and confidential jobs, but he did not expect Alfred to send West to do that. And Alfred’s current serious and determined look was something Craig hadn’t seen in the last few
years.

Chapter 158
Unable to question Alfred, Craig obeyed. “Yes, sir.”
Taking the private plane was a little faster than taking ordinary consumer flights. When Lea and the others arrived at Vaporleon City, it was not even midnight. When they got off the plane, Jason was already waiting in the car.
When Jason saw Yannis, he was dumbfounded.
Yannis was six feet four and appeared as strong as a bear. But now, his face was covered with gauze. It was the same for his head, which was mostly hidden by a cap. His arms and thighs were all bandaged.
Although Yannis wore loose pants and a T–shirt, Jason was a fighter too, so he could naturally read Yannis’s situation through his clothes. Yannis was practically bandaged up like a mummy.
“A–Are you sure you went for an exam and not a fight?” Jason asked. Furthermore; Yannis was the only one who got beaten up.
‘What happened to being an assassin?” Jason thought. ‘Do assassins use such methods?”
“He went boxing.” Shannon couldn’t help but kindly explain when she saw how worried Jason was.
“Boxing? Are you sure he’s not just being beaten up?” Jason asked.
“You’re right about that too,” Shannon said.
Jason was speechless.
“Come on. Get in.” Jason immediately opened the car door, afraid that Yannis would scare the other passengers in the airport.
They got into the car and went straight to Riverview Hospital.
Henry’s sudden death left the Fraley Group leaderless. As the only daughter, Matilda stepped forward and took responsibility for everything. At the same time, it also declared that she would inherit the Fraley Group.
In addition to Fraley Hospital, Fraley Group was also involved in real estate, hotels, tourism, and other industries.
In the last few years, Matilda used Berry Airline’s technology to develop smart cars. She had also used some artificial brain technology. The project was very promising and valuable, but at the moment, it required loads of money.
Therefore, excluding Fraley Hospital, the Fraley Group was valued at about 1.6 billion dollars.

If the matter of Fraley Hospital could be successfully resolved, if nothing went wrong, once Matilda signed the equity acceptance, she would become the richest woman in Vaporleon City.
For the last few days, Matilda devoted herself to Fraley Group.
Christian had his hands full too, but he called Lea after her interview. Lea had told him that everything went well and not to worry. She also said that she wanted to tour Iverton and would return a day later.
Christian trusted Lea and did not ask much about where she went. Thus, Lea could go where she liked.
When they reached Riverview Hospital, the car drove through the employee passageway to the garden parking lot in front of the medical research building.
The car came to a stop. Lorrand and Chris, who had been waiting for a long time; welcomed them.
“Lea, Shannon, how did you do?” Chris asked hurriedly.
Lorrand was also anxious to know,
In the four days that Lea and the others had been at Iverton, Vaporleon City had undergone a tremendous change. Lorrand and Chris had been in charge of the case of organ transplantation and trafficking. They had almost no rest..
There was also a lot Lorrand and Chris needed to tell Lea.
However, what they were most concerned about now was Shannon and Lea’s results and their future. In comparison, the other stuff was not so important.
“I passed. Look at my acceptance letter.” Shannon handed over her document. She was happy like a
kid.
Lea said, “I did well too.”
Lorrand and Chris were not worried about Lea. With her ability, Conrad University was lucky to have her.
“Great. Lorrand felt a sense of fatherly relief and joy then. His eyes were red. There was also excitement and passion of a fellow genius.
Compared to a rare genius like Lea, Lorrand was also a straight–A student. Although he did not get into Conrad University, he was still one of the top medical students in his batch.
The same went for Chris. She was one of the best graduates from the best school in the world.

“Let’s find a chance to throw a party for you two. Chris couldn’t wait to throw a huge party for them now. They had to celebrate.
“No need. It’s my birthday on the seventh of next month. You guys can come then,” Lea offered.
Chris looked at Lea, her eyes sparkling. It seemed that there would be a good show then. Chris said,
“Sure.”
Lorrand nodded as well. He would definitely go..
Lorrand then looked at Yannis and frowned.
Yannis had gone boxing again and this time, it seemed the match was even more brutal. He looked worse than before.
Lorrand thought that Yannis would restrain himself after almost losing his life last time. He did not expect Yannis to become even worse.
Lorrand glanced at Lea again, noticing that she did not object to it. It was obvious that Lea and Yannis had reached a tacit understanding, so Lorrand did not interfere.
Lorrand said to Shannon, “Your mother was discharged yesterday.”
Lorrand didn’t know what to say about Donna. He didn’t show that to Shannon as he didn’t want Shannon to be affected.
Shannon’s heart sank. She gritted her teeth and restrained her emotions. “She took money from Fraley Hospital?”
Before going to Iverton, Shannon had instructed Donna not to sign the deal if Fraley Hospital came looking for her. She did not expect that it still happened.
Donna had complained continuously on the hospital bed. However, she fled the moment she got her hands on the money.
“Yes. She took 600,000 dollars,” Lorrand said.
Shannon gritted her teeth. If Donna were her biological mother, she would have died of anger.
To guard against Donna, Shannon had analyzed it carefully for her. Even if Fraley Hospital wanted to pay to reconcile, they should at least give two million dollars.
