Chapter 469 Agreeing to disagree
“I don’t agree.” Angela frowned.
Once the man knew that she was alive, she would be James’ Achilles’ heel.
Besides, she’d already been to James twice about money laundering and the man must have been alerted.
If she had just exposed herself this time and asked James to check out the money laundering trail, the man might have jumped the gun and gotten James and her killed!
On hearing this, Mr. Lawson said angrily, “You have to agree or disagree!”
With the Smith Group on track and the man ready to take on the Harvey Group, Mr. Lawson couldn’t care less and ordered some bodyguards to take Angela to James.
Angela struggled against the pain, “Don’t you dare! If Roland finds out what happened to me, he’ll expose that video I gave him, and then everyone will know about you being alive!”
“I’m already a dying man, it makes no difference if I die a day sooner or later!” The Harvey Group is the heart and soul of the Harvey family for 100 years, and he will never tolerate its destruction in his own hands!
Mr. Lawson ordered his bodyguards in a cold voice, “Gag her and take her away!”
The bodyguard agreed and immediately gagged her with a towel, then put on her hat and gag and sunglasses and pushed her out the door. The others followed behind with Mr. Lawson.
There was nothing gentle about these men’s movements, and many of the cuts on Angela’s body were open and she was cringing in pain.
She thought Mr. Lawson didn’t care about anyone but himself, but he actually risked his own life to save the Harvey Group.
Now that video, not even half as threatening to him, is her being too smug ……
“Be careful all, don’t hurt her!” Mr. Lawson glared at the bodyguards when he saw the wound on Angela’s body split open.
James cared so much about this woman that if he saw these wounds on her, he might turn against him!
The bodyguards hurriedly responded, their hands moving a few notches lighter.
The corridor is full of people, doctors and nurses, patients and their families.
Angela was in a hurry, but the bodyguards had gagged her with a towel and gagged her, so she couldn’t call for help and the most she could do was make a few whimpering noises.
When someone got suspicious and looked over, a bouncer explained, “My sister, who has a manic disorder, had to do this for fear she would shout or hurt someone.”
This was supposed to be a hospital, and those people didn’t get suspicious, and some even reassured the bodyguard a few times.
Angela was desperate but had no way to explain, so she let the bodyguards push her towards the lift.
If we did get out of the hospital and into the car, there would be no room for redemption in this matter!
Angela’s throat tightened, her eyes fixed on the passing crowd, and if she could meet Roland or her primary care doctor on the way, there was still a chance of a turnaround.
And as they both have several patients on hand, it’s not unusual to run into them in the corridor.
Fortunately, she was not too unlucky. The bodyguards were pushing her almost to the lift when Roland came out of a hospital room.
“Wooooo …… wooooooooooooo!” Help me, Roland!
Angela brightens up and struggles to make a sound to get Roland’s attention.
He did hear a noise from this side as well and looked up this way.
But almost at the same time, the patient’s family in the ward rushed out, just in front of him, and said anxiously, “Roland, my son suddenly said his leg was hurting too much, so hurry in and take a look!”
Roland thought Angela’s side looked familiar, and before he could take a closer look, he was hurriedly dragged inside by some of the patient’s family members who had followed him out.
In the meantime, the bodyguard and Mr. Lawson’s group had already taken Angela downstairs and into the stretch Lincoln and SUV outside, heading straight for the Bamboo Estate.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Inside the ward.
“Roland, how is my son? He’s only eighteen, if anything happens to his leg, his life will be ruined!”
“He’s so young, so by all means, please Roland, do what you can to save him! We are willing to pay any amount of money!”
“Roland, why is he suddenly shouting that his leg hurts? Has the wound gotten worse?”
Roland gave the man in the hospital bed a check-up, “It’s fine, normal reaction after surgery. His injury is not very serious, take some time to recuperate, it will heal, a few of you don’t need to be so nervous.”
“Good, that’s good, it’s a real pain in Roland’s ass.”
“Thank you thank you thank you, it’s good that it’s okay, it’s good that it’s okay!”
Several patients’ families thanked them profusely.
After a few more notes, Roland hurried out of the ward. The man in the wheelchair who resembled Angela had disappeared.
There was a little nurse right next to him and he went over and asked, “The female patient who was just here, did you see her?”
“See, it’s that friend of yours, Miss. Randi.”
“There’s an old man who seems to be a friend of hers and often goes to her ward and takes her out with him.”
“The day before yesterday, this old man took Miss. Randi out, and this morning he went out too. Now I reckon he’s out again.”
“Roland, you’d better advise that friend of yours, she’s not fit to go out in this condition, it’s too dangerous.”
He was handsome usually treated people with gifts and the little nurses liked him and told them all about the situation without him asking any detailed questions.
God ……
Roland said a silent prayer in his mind and then thought about Angela’s reluctance to tell him who the man was who took her out …… his brow furrowed, Angela could fake her death, how could Mr. Lawson not?
“Okay, thanks guys, I’ll treat you to a milk tea later.” Roland smiled and thanked a few people before walking away.
Although Angela hadn’t gone out for the past few days either, he always felt that something was different today. He thought about it a bit uneasily and called Angela.
–
In the Lincoln.
The phone vibrates suddenly.
Mr. Lawson picked up the phone and looked at it, “Roland? It’s from that Roland family kid?”
To make it easier to prove Angela’s identity, he brought out all of Angela’s personal belongings from the ward.
“Hmm.” The towel had been removed from Angela’s mouth.
Seeing that Mr. Lawson was about to hang up the phone, she went ahead and said, “Roland had already seen me before I came out just now, you will only arouse his suspicion if you hang up now.”
Mr. Lawson sneered, “If I don’t hang up, should I let you get on the phone and ask him for help? You think I’m stupid?”
“You’re not stupid, you’re too shrewd to have friends.” Angela sneered.
Mr. Lawson’s face instantly sank, “You-”
Angela said, “We’re on our way now, and even if Roland called the police immediately, the police won’t be able to stop them in time. By the time they get here, you’ll have taken me to James for sure.”
“It’s come to this, and there’s no need for me to drag Roland into it. Give me the phone.”
Whatever we do now, there is no turning back of things.
