Chapter 93
Lorrand returned the documents to the bag. As Lea looked up, she saw Lea with a fierce expression, a commanding presence. “You need to swallow your pride for now,” she said firmly, both persuading and ordering. “Until I bring down Fraley, pretend you haven’t read this information.
With that, she handed the envelope back to him.
They had unbearable hatred. But when facing formidable enemies, the only option was to endure, to wait until the moment the enemies could be defeated. Otherwise, they would be destroyed, losing the chance for revenge
Rationality prevailed over anger, Lorrand looked at Lea, astonished by her authority and indifference.
Lorrand might have thought Lea cold–hearted if she hadn’t saved two lives under impossible circumstances, giving him and his daughter a chance at rebirth, Moreover, Riverview Hospital saved so many lives. So, he knew she wasn’t.
In a few seconds, Lorrand suddenly felt relieved. He wondered what kind of hatred Lea harbored towards Fraley Medical and Nixon that required such patience, caution, and meticulous planning.
If a young girl like Lea could do it, he should do better.
“Miss Berry, rest assured. I won’t alert anyone. I still need to take care of Anna” Lorrand said.
When he learned the truth, he indeed wanted to go to Fraley Hospital and confront Nixon, but he couldn’t leave his daughter behind.
Lea glanced at him. If he could resist going initially, he wouldn’t go later.
“I won’t keep you waiting too long?” She promised. Every moment the enemy existed was torment for herself.
|| “Okay.“Lorrand nodded solemnly
Then, Lea turned and walked out.
“Just getting some study materials shouldn’t take too long. If she stayed out too late, Matilda’s people at the mansion might start to suspect her whereabouts.
At the door, Lea suddenly turned back.
“Miss Berry, do you have any other instructions?” Lorrand asked.
Lea asked, “Which detective agency did you hire?
Fraley Hospital wouldn’t leave any traces for others to find out about their actions. She could tell one needed to break through numerous seemingly impenetrable security barriers to obtain this kind of information.
This “delective” was very

“This is a detective agency I learned about in the Medical Union, called the Dark Union, he replied.
If it were anyone else, Lorrand would have kept this information confidential, but not for Lea
He explained. “This union has only become active in certain upper–level fields in the past two years. I don’t know much else about them.”
Lea contemplated briefly. “Cor it.”
She left the office, closing the door behind her.
Exiting the hospital, Jason drove her back to the Berry family’s mansion. It was past Up, with the city bustling with traffic and nea

Lea responded, “I want you to do things for me without informing Mr. Alfred. Can you do that?”
Jason fell silent.
They grew up by Alfred’s side, their mission being to serve and protect him. Now, they were being ordered to obey another person.
“Well… Jason fell silent for a moment, then said. “Mr. Andrews cares about you a lot. He’s very concerned about you and wouldn’t harm you.”

“I know,” Lea said with certainty. She just realized how perilous and difficult her future path would be and didn’t for his safety.

“Il give you a day to consider. Answer me tomorrow, Lea said. Hearing her authoritative tone, Jason didn’t dare to argue further.
The car pulled into the driveway of the Berry family’s mansion. Lea got out and went straight upstairs.
Then, Jason drove back to the lakeside villa.
It was late at night in the villa. Jason sat on the sofa, sipping water, waiting for Alfred’s response,
You’ll follow her from now on Alfred said suddenly.
Jason nearly choked on his water. Alfred answered so quickly, without even considering it
Alfred added, “However, you still have to report important matters to me
Jason asked. “Important matters?”
Alfred responded, “Yeah,”

What exactly counted as “important matters“? Jason was feeling overwhelmed. And if Lea found our, given her personality, she wouldn’t forgive him. This was difficult.
Before he could dwell on it further. Alfred asked, “How is she now?”
Lea must have further plans for asking him to do sa
“She’s not in a good mood, Jason responded after a pause.
Alfred’s expression darkened, and his mood suddenly soured.
Jason remained silent.
Alfred ordered, “Go get busy.”
Jason replied, “Yes,”
Jason left the villa, feeling puzzled and unsettled.
In the garden, he bumped into Craig and pulled him aside to ask questions.
