Chapter 862 The Play Has Just Started

As soon as Greg stepped out of the emergency room, Aria, who had been waiting at the gate for hours, grabbed his arm.

"Doctor Greg, how is my mother doing?" Aria kept his eyes on Greg's while she waited for him to answer. She held her breath, unmoving, hoping that the answer from Greg that would give her comfort.

Greg saw tears from Aria's eyes and his heart sank. He wanted to comfort her but he didn't know how.

When he finally spoke, he smiled and said, "Your mother is alright now. She was in bad shape when she was rescued but she's out of danger now."

Aria finally released the breath she held back. Her mind was finally at peace now that her mother was out of danger.

Worried that Aria would ask a lot of questions about what happened, Greg beat her to it, "We found out, during surgery, that your mom was allergic to some of the drugs and she did have some bad reactions to it. But we fixed it and she's safe now. So there's no more need to worry."

"Oh, thank goodness," Aria sighed, a smile appeared on her lips. She took Greg's hands in hers and shook it. "Doctor Greg, I cannot say thank you enough. I really appreciate everything you did for me and my mother."

Greg shook his head and held up his hand to stop Aria. He smiled and hoped she wouldn't see the truth. He felt guilty for not telling Aria the truth. Aria just looked so innocent and simple, like Violet. And if she knew someone wanted to hurt her mother intentionally, Greg didn't know what she would do. And this could be connected to Lawrence, so he couldn't say anything yet.

Greg exhaled to clear his mind. He reassured Aria, "I'll ask the nurse to transfer her to the ICU when she wakes up. Do you mind waiting again while we do that? We really need to observe her so we can decide on the best therapy for her." He did his best to stay calm so Aria wouldn't notice his uneasiness. Paranoia hit him and he felt someone was watching his or XS Hospital's next move. He feared something bad was going to happen soon.

"I can do that," Aria agreed and took her place again on the chairs at the waiting room.

Greg left Aria by the waiting room to rush to the hospital's security room.

There were two employees inside the room, who quickly stood up when Greg barged into the room, "Doctor Greg!"

"I want to see the security footage. I want to see what happened to Kate!" Greg ordered the staff. He was usually polite to everyone in the hospital but he wasn't in the mood right now. He needed to know what happened immediately.

One of the workers got right on it. "Just a moment, sir," he told Greg. He faced the monitors and looked for the footage.

Ten minutes had passed and they found nothing.

"Is there a problem?" Greg asked, even if he already knew.

The worker hesitated and turned to his co-worker. His voice was low and quiet when he finally spoke. "I'm really sorry, Sir," he started to explain. "But that footage is missing. We're not sure what happened with that footage."

Greg gasped, bewildered. It did look like somebody planned the attack and tampered with the monitors to cover it up.

One of the workers stood up to face Greg, "We're very sorry, Sir, but we really don't know how this h

It all starts on that fateful night.

When Ella, who is the dear sister of Samuel’s best buddy, sneaks into the hotel where the drunken Samuel resides and gets pregnant…

"I don’t want a divorce!"

"I don’t want a divorce!"

"I did no such thing!"

Ella jumped on the bed and cried out. “I don’t want a scheming woman as my wife. Just sign the paper...

ch a waste of money to let people like Kate stay there. What a pity!"

Sharon continued to grumble but Sally wasn't listening anymore.

She had other things on her mind. "Greg is sure to put in stricter measures. We need to come up with a better plan," Sally analyzed. Greg was not just a silly boy. Lawrence was the most powerful man in the city, followed by Mike. And Greg was the 3rd most powerful. Their power and wealth made sure they mattered. The time of Jackson and Mond was now over. And their successors have taken over.

"Greg is still a good man and he will not be so scheming." Sharon would always have a deep affection for Greg, who she took as her own son many years ago, although at the start she did it for her own good, using him as one of her means to get closer to Fred. She wanted to make it up to him ever since.

"I know Greg is a good man," Sally reaffirmed what Sharon said. "But I'm afraid that he already has his suspicions with the drug."

Sharon was curious and moved closer to Sally, asking, "What was that drug, Sally?" What's so special about it that it can't be found in China?"

"One can buy some only in New Zealand," Sally said. She spent almost all her money on that drug. "Greg's in the medical industry so I'm sure he knows about that drug now and what it does!"

Sally was not worried since the drugs were bought from the black market. Nobody was going to find out about it. Even if Greg knew what the drug could do, he had no way of knowing who it came from.

Sharon was confused at Sally's smug look. "Kate is not dead this time. What's your next step?"

"Easy, easy! Everything's just getting started," Sally said, a cocky smile was pasted on her lips.

"You mean?" Sharon thought for a second and speculated, "Rebecca?"

"Oh yes! In three days, a storm will sweep over the entire city. Just you wait and see," Sally raised her wine glass again at Sharon.

A smile appeared on Sharon's lips. She finished her wine and topped it up again. "I'm so bored. I want to see this splendid show start."

"Actually, the only person we need to thank right now is Mike," Sally announced.
