Sebastian clenched his fists at the thought of that.
Yancy sure doesn’t disappoint… She really took viciousness to a whole new level!
“How is he now?”
“He’s already been sent to the hospital. I’m guessing she used a new type of chemical weapon, so ordinary hospitals probably can’t save him!” Karl replied worriedly.
A substance capable of oxidizing instantly when the parcel is opened and poisoning the recipient upon inhalation? It’s definitely some kind of specially engineered chemical! Given the stuff those b*stards usually do, I wouldn’t be surprised if they really used a chemical weapon!
Sebastian’s face turned gloomy upon hearing that. He then sprung to his feet, about to rush over to the hospital. However, he paused in his tracks when he suddenly recalled something.
“Mr. Hayes?”
“Go check on the situation, and contact the drug lords that we know,” he said while sitting back down on the couch and returned to his usual calm demeanor.
Wait… Isn’t he going to at least check on his father-in-law? This is a matter of life and death! Mrs. Hayes would be devastated if he didn’t show up!
Karl froze briefly at the thought and tried to persuade him by saying, “Mr. Hayes, I think you should make a trip to the hospital… We can take care of everything else later.”
By “everything else”, he was referring to Sebastian’s relationship with Sasha.
Even though they were talking on the phone, Karl could feel Sebastian’s icy glare through the screen. “What are you talking about? Everything is simply going according to plan, isn’t it? You’d better not tell her anything about me and ruin my plan!”
That last sentence sent a shiver down Karl’s spine. He quickly hung up the phone without another word.
It was already afternoon by the time Karl arrived at the hospital. He rushed over to the emergency ward and saw Sasha sitting outside with panic written all over her face.
“Mrs. Hayes?”
“Hmm?” Sasha looked up at him in confusion and stared blankly at him for a moment before realizing who he was.
Like a drowning person who had found a lifebuoy, she then leapt to her feet and looked behind him as she asked, “Mr. Frost? Is Sebastian here? Where is he?”
Unfortunately, she saw no one but Hayes Corporation’s bodyguards in the corridor.
