Chapter 237 Heartless

On the heels of that, Mr. Lautner was seen rushing into the ward.

“Mr. Goldstein!” Robert walked in and greeted Jonathan with a respectful stance.

“Why are you here?” Jonathan frowned. He was unhappy because he didn’t want unrelated people to cause any disturbance to Alice to her family.

“I heard one of Ms. Renner’s parents has woken up. So I came to see if I can help with anything!” Robert noticed Jonathan’s agitated expression, so he nervously turned toward Alice and offered her his name card. “Here’s my name card, Ms. Renner. Don’t hesitate to call if you need my help with anything!”

“Jon, should I?” Alice was hesitant to accept the name card.

“Take it. You can look for him if I’m not in Cranur!” Upon hearing that, Alice took the name card from Robert. “Thank you, Mr. Lautner!”

“Don’t mention it. Any of Mr. Goldstein’s problems is my problem as well!” At that instance, Robert’s stance turned even more respectful.

“All right, you may go now.” Jonathan gestured Robert to leave with a wave of his hand.

“Okay. I’ll leave now!” Robert nodded vigorously and left.

After he had gotten out of the ward, he took out his phone and called someone. “Hello, is this Chief Simmons? Dispatch a team from the Police Tactical Unit to Heart’s Hospital to protect Mr. Goldstein. Make sure they’re here within ten minutes! I’ll skin you alive if anything bad happens to Mr. Goldstein!”

Alice and the rest of them didn’t hear Robert’s phone call.

After Robert left the ward, the middle-aged woman took a doubtful glance at the door before shifting her gaze toward Jonathan and Alice. “Was that man really the mayor of our county?”

“Why would I lie to you?” Alice was frustrated. She knew it was the truth because she had personally witnessed Robert lecturing the police officers. Besides, he had even detained the director of the hospital. Who else could he be if not the mayor?

“Did the two of you pull a prank on me?” The middle-aged woman was still in disbelief. The mayor himself? For real? A mayor is one of the highest-ranked government officers! I bet he’s the most influential man in the whole county! Why would he come personally to greet Jonathan? Besides, his attitude didn’t seem like he was the mayor. He must be one of Jonathan’s subordinates instead!

“Mom, why won’t you believe me?” Alice stomped her foot in frustration.

Meanwhile, Jonathan smiled and said, “That man was really the mayor in your county. Would you at least believe me? Since when have I ever lied to you, Mrs. Renner?”

“Well, that’s true!” The middle-aged woman nodded. “You’ve never lied ever since you were a child! Unlike Alice.”

“Mom!” Alice tugged on the middle-aged woman’s arm.
