"As long as he doesn't die." Nina took a deep breath. She was worried about Jean but said such mean words.
Johann, who was on the other end of the phone, froze.
Percy was the only one that understood what she was thinking about.
He stretched out his hand, touched the back of Nina's hand, and said, "Please help me to keep an eye on him. I'll rush over now."
"No problem." Johann said, "By the way, the police are already investigating. They say they found some surveillance footage. I trust that they’ll find who did this to Jean soon."
"It's whoever lent him money," Nina said dully, but her tone was affirmative.
Johann was stunned and asked subconsciously, "How do you know?"
Nina did not say anything, so Percy just said, "Okay, I’ll hang up now. We’re about 10 minutes away. See you at the hospital."
"Okay." Johann hung up the phone without asking further questions.
Nina grabbed some bread, took a bite, and drank a sip of milk before she said slowly, "The people who beat up Jean must be the ones who lent him money.”
Money was what Jean lacked the most at that moment, and he owed a lot of debt. Whoever lent him money would never let Jean off easily as they knew it would likely turn into unpaid debt.
"The police will launch an investigation," Percy said. Although he had a rough idea of what had happened, he did not want to decide on a conclusion since they had yet to see Jean.
Nina adjusted her breathing and remained silent. She ate half a piece of bread and put it down.
Percy noticed that and said helplessly, "Nina, eat more. I don’t want you to be hungry."
"I'm not hungry. Jean has made me completely lose my appetite," Nina said. When she heard what Johann said, she was not sure if she should thank those people who beat up Jean to the point where he did not have the strength to stand up, or if she should feel bad that he was badly injured.
"Don't punish yourself because of him. You did nothing wrong," Percy said. He had been taking good care of Nina, so he was pissed as she was back in a bad mood because of Jean, especially when he had put in so much effort to get her to put on more weight.
He would protect her. He would not allow anyone to piss her off.
She knew that he cared about her, so Nina looked at him with a smile that looked uglier than her crying face.
Percy frowned and said, "You look ugly. Eat some more. You’re too thin. You won’t look good like this.”
"I'll eat more." Nina knew that he did not like it when she was too thin. The previous check-up also showed that she was underweight, so she needed to gain some weight.
Percy had been putting in a lot of effort to make it happen.
"Good." Percy said nothing more when he saw her obediently eating breakfast.
After they arrived at the hospital, Percy and Nina rushed straight to the emergency room.
Two police officers stood at the door of the emergency room. Without asking, Nina walked over and said calmly to the police, "I’m Jean Langdon's family."
"You’re Jean's family member, huh? Please come with us." The officers looked at Nina from top to bottom and said.
