Stephen's expression changed into a restless one when he heard Jane's voice. He looked at Nathan and Aiden. He could tell that the two also heard Jane's voice.

"Who is behind that door?" Nathan's firm voice echoed. He was glaring at Stephen sharply.

He was annoyed because Stephen stopped them from entering the room.

"Probably the nurse and doctor. They were checking her so they asked me to wait outside. Go back to your room, Nate. Let them finish their tasks first. They can't concentrate if you watch them. They will feel pressured in your presence." Stephen came up with an excuse, trying to convince Nathan to go back.

"Eh? Why do I feel like they are arguing inside Abigail's ward? Haven't you heard of it? The woman is shouting at someone. They are not supposed to fight inside the patient's ward!" Aiden butted in, unable to notice Stephen's sharp gaze.

Stephen had the urge to cut Aiden's tongue right now. He was giving him trouble. Because of Aiden's last remarks, Nathan had more reason to enter and check what was happening inside Abigail's ward.

"Stephen, move away. Let me pass through," Nathan said in his authoritative voice. The more Stephen refused the more Nathan became suspicious of him.

Nathan could no longer wait. He tried to stand with one leg, pushing Stephen using his left hand. Nathan had been grumpy and sensitive since yesterday.

Aiden immediately held Nathan's left shoulder, supporting him. Stephen wanted to stop him but it was too late. Nathan already twisted the doorknob, opening the door.

Nathan was shocked beyond belief upon recognizing the woman sitting next to Abigail's sick bed.

'What is she doing here? She is already awake? She regained consciousness...'

It did not take long before his shocked expression changed into anger and hatred. Nathan gnashed his teeth and shifted his gaze to Stephen. He felt betrayed at that certain moment. Stephen could only give him an apologetic look.

"Wait... Is that Phantomflake?" Aiden's voice broke the deafening silence. He was still clueless about the heavy tension surrounding them.

Meanwhile, Nathan's rage surged inside his heart upon seeing Phantomflake. She was the last person he wanted to see in this room.

Without saying a word, Nathan stepped forward, dragging his injured leg. He endured the pain of forcing his injured leg to make a step toward Phantomflake.

Jane just watched him inching closer and closer to her. She felt relieved seeing Nathan was safe. But the moment Nathan reached her spot, he immediately strangled her using his left hand. He grabbed her by her neck.

Stephen had just arrived at his place when Spider and his group surrounded them. Stephen stepped out of the car and he instructed Jane to stay inside and locked the car door.

"Doc Stephen, hand her over to us," Spider spoke up. "This is our Leader's order. You have to cooperate with us if you don't want to get hurt."

"No. I won't allow you to take my patient," Stephen firmly said.

Spider glanced at his men, motioning for them to attack Stephen. Three men charged forward, attacking Stephen while the other men tried to open the car door to capture Phantomflake.

Stephen showed them his fighting skills. He wouldn't give up easily. He would protect Jane even if it means opposing Nathan's order. Stephen was fighting a group of men. One vs Five.

Hearing the chaos outside, Cherry also showed up along with Stephen's guards. Cherry and the two guards helped Stephen fight Spider and his men. Cherry didn't know why those men were targeting Stephen and Jane. She wasn't aware that Spider and his group were from Syphiruz.

When Spider could no longer match Stephen, he resorted to using a weapon. He picked up his gun and pointed his gun to the easy targets— the bodyguards.

"Stop resisting, or I'll shoot them!" Spider threatened them, making Stephen and Cherry stop fighting.

Before Cherry and Stephen could make a move to rescue the guard, the car door was pushed open and Phantomflake alighted from the car.

"Put your gun down. I'm coming with you. Just don't hurt them."

"Sis, No!" Cherry objected. She couldn't let these men take Phantomflake away.

Stephen also shook his head. He didn't know what Nathan would do to Jane. They might torture her. She was still recuperating.

But Jane just gave them a reassuring smile. "Don't worry. Nothing bad will happen to me. I have to fix things." Jane decided to go with Spider willingly. She didn't want to ruin the friendship of Nathan and Stephen.

"I will come with you! If you will take her away, then take me with you!" Cherry yelled at Spider.

But Jane's expression changed. "Don't be stubborn, Cherry. Listen to me. This is my order." Then she glanced at Stephen. "Let me do this, Stephen. Don't interfere."

Cherry and Stephen exchanged glances with one another. They were reluctant to obey her. But they could see in Jane's face her determination. She wasn't afraid.

Spider ordered his men to hold Phantomflake, bringing her to their car. Stephen and Cherry stood there while clenching their fists.

"Who are these people, Doc Stephen?" Cherry asked him, watching Spider with her bloodshot eyes.

Stephen exhaled sharply. "They are Nathan's men."

Cherry was taken aback when she heard that. "Why are they taking my sis?"

Stephen fell silent for a moment. He couldn't let Cherry know that Nathan was the Supreme Leader of the Syphiruz Mafia. "I don't know. I'll talk to Nathan."
