Chapter 208 Jonathan’s Worry
Chapter 208 Jonathan’s Worry
Angela woke up in the hospital.
She opened her eyes to a dimly lit room with the familiar smell of disinfectant in the air.
When she stiffly lifted her head, she saw Jonathan sitting on a chair beside her. The warm yellow light cast his profile like a gentle and quiet painting.
There seemed to be a hint of fatigue on his face.
Upon hearing a noise, Jonathan looked up.
He then reached out to press the bell and slowly helped Angela sit up. “How do you feel?”
Angela frowned, her voice a bit hoarse as she muttered, “I feel like my whole body hurts. especially… Argh.”
She moved her right shoulder, feeling a sharp pain.
“My shoulder.” Angela’s face twisted in pain. “It hurts the most.”
Jonathan comforted her, “The doctor said there’s nothing serious, so don’t worry.”
Thinking of the kidnapping, Angela quickly asked, “Is Jessica okay? What about Samuel? Did they catch him? And the people who escaped… Have they been caught, too?”
Looking at Angela with bandages on her forehead and hands, Jonathan felt a bit helpless.
She was in such a state herself, yet she was still worrying about others.
But in order to not let her worry too much, Jonathan patiently replied, “Don’t worry. Jessica is fine. She’s been placed in another ward. She insisted on crying and shouting by your bedside until late at night yesterday but eventually couldn’t hold on and had to take some sedatives prescribed by the doctor to fall asleep.”
Angela breathed a sigh of relief.
Jessica was fine, which was a huge relief for Angela. Angela would never forgive herself if anything happened to Jessica because of her.
“As for Samuel…” Jonathan’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness as he spoke, “They have all been caught, and not one escaped. Samuel was shot in the leg while trying to escape, and Oliver broke his leg. He is now in the hospital receiving treatment.”

Chapter 208 Jonathan’s Worry
Angela bit her lip and timidly asked, “I–Is that allowed?”
After all, there were police present at the time.
It didn’t seem right to beat up Samuel without questioning or convicting him, as he was just a
suspect.
Jonathan’s expression was cold and indifferent as he replied, “Of course, it’s not allowed. But the friends and family of the victim were angry, and they couldn’t help but take action. Besides, Samuel didn’t say anything, so they won’t interfere.”
Samuel was already in a precarious situation, and causing more trouble would only make his
situation worse.
During their conversation, the doctor came in, followed by Daniel.
Upon seeing Angela, Daniel couldn’t stop talking. “Oh, Angela, where have you been? How did you end up like this? Is your hand okay? You’re going to be a doctor in the future. especially with your skillful needle techniques. What if-”
Daniel stopped abruptly as he saw the icy and ruthless look in Jonathan’s eyes.
After the doctor finished the examination and advised some rest for the shoulder injury, he left the ward.
Only Daniel was left, sitting at the end of Angela’s bed. “You’re looking much better,” he said. “When Jonathan carried you in yesterday, his expression was so cold… I thought he was about to go on a rampage.”
Daniel had never seen that expression on Jonathan in all these years.
The capitalist was always a smiling predator, never showing his emotions and unwilling to reveal his true self to others.
But yesterday, it was truly frightening.
Daniel even wondered what would happen if Angela were to get into any accidents.
Presently, he turned his head and locked eyes with Jonathan. The other man’s gaze was sharp, almost smiling as he looked at him.
Angela glanced at Jonathan, then corrected him, “Dr. Lockwood, as a doctor, can you please be more precise with your words? There’s no need for talk of rampages, Jonathan is not that kind of person.”

em a bit what most of the time, he is quite gentle
Angela glanced up at Jonathan, her sweet smile lighting up her face.
Jonathan returned her smile, his expression softening
“Take some rest. Unnecessary chatter won’t do you any good. It might affect your intellect,” he
and gently,
“Hey Daniel fel a twinge of annoyance at the sudden affection. “Can you two tone down the lovey–dovey act? This is a hospital. There are other people around.”
Angela looked puzzled.
I simply stating the truth, so how is that being overly affectionate? Has Daniel been alone for toot Jong, and can he not stand a man and woman interacting normally?
Ignoring him, Jonathan checked his watch and murmured, “I have some matters to attend to. May will be here to look after you.” soon
Angela wanted to ask how the household would be managed once May moved in to care for her, but she felt it was unnecessary,
Jonathan always had everything planned out.
So, Angela nodded meekly once more.
As Jonathan left, he ushered Daniel out, who protested loudly, “No, you can go if you have things to do, but I’m fine. Besides, I still have much to discuss with Angela. Hey! Don’t tug at my collar… Jonathan Lawson, I have my reputation to uphold!”
The ward had excellent soundproofing, and Daniel’s protests gradually faded away.
Angela surveyed the VIP ward. It was a suite with two rooms, fully equipped and comfortable, just like a house,
No wonder the soundproofing was so effective here.
It was money well spent.
After exiting the ward, Jonathan headed straight to the car, followed closely by Simon.
