Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 654

Chapter 654

‘The western gate is where the security is the weakest. You can take

Claudette away from there, Laura noted at the end of her note.

After reading the note, Emmanuel tore it into pieces, flushed it down the toilet,

and walked out as if nothing had happened. Then, he followed the Lenoir

family’s guards and came to Claudette’s room.

At their first encounter, Emmanuel felt his heart sink. Claudette looked pallid

and lifeless, and guarding her were still the four women Magnus brought.

“Go away!” Emmanuel pushed the four women away rudely. He knew very

well that they were not here to save Claudette but to harm her.

He checked Claudette’s breathing, dreading the fact that she might already

be dead. Fortunatelyshe was still breathing, but just barely.

The machinery was also still running.

He wondered, though, if Magnus was hesitant to kill Claudette openly or if he

was unwilling to harm the woman he loved.

“Dr. Lowe, from our observations, Ms. Lenoir’s condition is worsening. If she

doesn’t wake up by tomorrow morning, it’s unlikely she’ll ever wake up again,”

said one of the nurses with a hint of concern.

Her words alerted Emmanuel, and he confirmed these four nurses had

impressive medical skills.

She was right. If he didn’t come and remove the two silver needles from the

back of Claudette’s head, she wouldn’t be able to hold on for another 24

hours in her current condition.

“I’m going to wake her up now. You all can leave,” Emmanuel commanded

icily. However, the four women remained indifferent. They knew very well

whose orders they should follow.

“You scoundrels! I am the appointed chief physician by General Lenoir

himself. If you don’t cooperate with me and something happens to Ms. Lenoir,

can you bear the responsibility?”

Emmanuel deliberately tested the four women, and sure enough, no matter

how angry he was, the four women wouldn’t leave. Their task was evidently to

monitor Claudette.

Rumble!

Just then, a loud rumble came from outside the building, causing the entire

room to shake slightly.
