Amber didn't doubt what Elias said. She could tell Elias was quite mad but had tried his best to contain the anger for Amber was his good friend and he didn't want to embarrass her. Otherwise, what he was talking about would not be discharging Braylee but telling Amber to pick up her god damn sister and get out of this hospital.
Rubbing her knitted eyebrows, Amber said apologetically, "I am sorry for the trouble, Dr. Lansdale. But please don't worry, I promise I'll let my sister compensate for the damages."
It was what Braylee deserved since she was the one who broke the medical equipment, and the compensation would be directly taken from her dividends whether she agreed or not.
"Fine. What about the discharge?" Leaning back in his chair, Elias asked, "Would you want me to discharge her or not. If not, I will have to give her a shot of sedative and put her into an isolation ward."
"Don't bother," Shaking her head, Amber said, "Just discharge her. If we keep her in the hospital for too long, it will arouse her suspicion and cause us trouble once she finds out something."
"Even if she does find out something, she can't do anything about it. The chip embedded in her forehead will track her down wherever she runs," Elias said, giving a cold look through his glasses, "Well. I say we can simply imprison her and force her to deliver a baby for the Reeds?"
Though he was talking about something illegal, Elias seemed at ease. This was a man who had no respect and was not afraid of legal justification. But Amber had known Elias for a long time, so she didn't take it seriously, and she even thought it was merciful for Elias to say so since Elias would just kill Braylee if he was the one to make the decision.
"Nope. I haven't decided who will be the father of the baby, so we have to wait," Amber rejected, "Just discharge her for now. She can't run away and she will not run away before she takes away my share in the company. Even if she tries to run, the locator embedded in her body can help us catch her back, so don't you worry."
The locator was an electronic chip brought by Jared and planted into Braylee when Elias was treating her wounds after Braylee was forced to kowtow before her father's grave and had her forehead bleeding. In this way, Amber would know the location of Braylee wherever she ran, so it was not a problem for Amber.
"Well, I will do as you said," Pushing up his glasses, Elias said, "I will get her out of the hospital later."
"Thank you," Amber said, smiling.
Remembering something, Elias squinted his eyes and reminded Amber kindly, "One more thing, keep an eye on Braylee and watch out."
"What? Why?" The serious tone of Elias alerted Amber.
Elias continued, "Yesterday midnight, Braylee stole a nurse uniform, sneaked into the archives room of the hospital, and read your treatment records in the hospital."
"Why did she do that?" Amber frowned.
Spinning the lancet, Elias answered, "I heard about it from the nurses this morning. They said Braylee was caught by the staff when she went out of the archives room. I went to her after knowing this and asked her why she checked your records, and she said she knew you had gone to hospital several times and as your sister, she was worried about you and would like to know what had happened to you."
"She was lying." Amber sneered and thought, "How could Braylee possibly care for me? She hates me so much that she will kill me once she has the chance. What an idiot! If she is concerned about me, she can simply come to ask me or ask the nurses rather than sneaking into the archives room to find my treatment records. Nobody will believe in her stupid excuses."
"Yeah, her explanation sounds like bullshit to me and I don't have time for that. So, I just hypnotized her and asked for the truth. She said she was suspicious of your identity and went to check out your personal information. Now, by comparing your blood type with your father's, she can easily know that you are not his biological daughter and by using this information she can threaten you in the future. Well, just stay alert and be careful." Elias advised sincerely.
