Chapter 66
In the hospital room, Courtney could now sit and recline comfortably. Her recovery was going well.
It had been three days within ond from Lyden.
She kept her phone in hand at all times, even when sleeping, afraid she’d miss any news from Hayden
But there was still no word from Haplen
His silence indicated he was too busy to get in touch
From Country’s understanding of Hayden, if he were free, he would be talkative, going on and on.
But for three days, he remained unusually silent.
Courtney passed that he absolutely couldn’t reveal his identity, especially in front of the people from the Lewis family
Austin had become a part of the Lewis family too and he couldn’t be trosedl
Hayden was taken by the police for questioning. Even with support from him. Otherwise, if the Lewis family started suspecting, the news might mi

Lorraine looked around cautiously and quickly shut the room door. It’s really that Hayden from South Weidan? He’s a terror…”
Courtney opened her mouth, wanting to defend Hayden, but the less known about Hayden’s identity, the better.
Lucas ran
way, so Hayden’s mission wasn’t over yet. They still needed to catch Lucas.
Courtney, why are you still involved with him? Did he come to threaten you‘ It’s better to have him arrested, Lorraine whispered, a bit scared.
Carl sighed. It was their secret, something that couldn’t be explained,
When Lorraine married Carl, Hayden had already been sent for military training, so Lorraine never met Hayden
It was because Hayden joined the military so carly that he became the best choice for an undercover role.
This was because his social connections were clean and untarnished.
Besides, no one would ever suspect that the sole heir of the richest family in Henisburg would risk his life to work undercover,
“He didn’t. He was protecting me. If it wasn’t for him. I’d be dead,” Courney explained in sign language
Lorraine sighed, feeling that Courtney and Hayden were tied by a cursed fate.
No matter what, a terrorist wasn’t a match for Courtney. They had no future together, and there wouldn’t be a happy ending
It was in the Dean’s Office building.
James sat in a wheelchair

“He’s agreed to meet with you in private. If you can provide a suitable solution, he won’t escalate the situation, his subordinates answered.
James face looked bad. “Hmph, I should blame Lucas for not finishing the job. If he’d dealt

James looked at his subordinate. Tell Lucas that he is responsible for the mess he left me. He’d better lie low and not move things settle down, Ill support him in rebuilding his influence in South Weidan”
Before James could finish speaking the door swung open.
Robert stood at the door, his frail figure showing shock and disbelief.

Robert pointed at Jarnes accusingly. “You betrayed us. You’re terrifying. You.
Robert spoke angrily, clutching his chest, overwhelmed by the stress, his heart aching hally.
James snapped back to his senses and looked at his subordinate..
His subordinate nodded.
Robert clenched his fists. You’ll pay for this. I’m going to call the police. Tell the media, and tell everyone you’re a demon, and this was all your plan
Robert shouted angrily before turning and heading toward the elevator.
James gripped the wheelchair handles and spoke through clenched teeth. “Clean it up.”
In the hospital room. Lorraine was feeding Courtney:
Courtney ate very little, just a few bites of the egg.
If Hayden were here, he would have found a way to make her eat all the food.
“Robert got some media reporters, and Mark’s family is among them. This time, they’re going to make a big fuss, Lorraine whispered.
Courtney shook her head.
The Lewis family was very powerful, and Marilyn was engaged to the Reed family. Now, the media in Henisburg didn’t dare release the news without the Reed family’s permission.
The Lewis family had the ability to suppress this news.
no, someone jumped off the building!”
“Someone jumped off the building!”
Suddenly, there were cries and screams in the corridor, saying someone had jumped off a building.
Courtney felt a sudden pain in her heart, and she propped herself up with her hands.
She thought. What happened?
