Arielle and the rest arrived at the surveillance control room. On the other hand, Matthias and Cindy who
were left behind at the B-scan ultrasonography room, regained consciousness.
Cindy felt coldness on her stomach as she opened her eyes.
Startled, she immediately sat up and scanned her surroundings.
Although it was dim, she could tell it was a B-scan ultrasonography room.
Why am I here?
Anxious, Cindy flinched in a cold sweat. She touched her stomach cautiously, only to perceive the gel
required for B-scan ultrasonography.
Matthias too was awake. Bemused, he sat up and asked Cindy, “Cin, where are we?”
“We’re in a B-scan ultrasonography room!” Cindy started crying in distress.
She realized that she had undergone B-scan ultrasonography. Therefore, her lie would have been
exposed.
Devastated, she whimpered, “That cunning Arielle must have told Henrick about the result. I’m done
for! Henrick will never let me off!”
Matthias massaged his stiff neck as he approached Cindy and consoled, “Cin, don’t cry. Henrick will
believe your words rather than hers. Isn’t this hospital under Carter? You can say that Carter and
Arielle cooperated to fake the report.”
“Do you think Henrick is dumb? He’s very suspicious. He’ll bring me to another hospital to perform a
test again!”
Matthias gritted his teeth and suggested, “Then we should run away. Seize this chance to get away
from Jadeborough. Now, Southall Group is nothing but an empty shell. You won’t benefit from it.
Besides, we have acquired a lot from Southall Group discreetly. Our assets abroad are definitely not
less than Henrick’s. Cin, leave with me!”
Cindy slowly shut her eyes as her lashes trembled in frustration.
She was exasperated, for she had sacrificed her youth and given birth to Shandie for Henrick.
Sadly, all her efforts were futile. Now, she met a miserable end and needed to run away. Of course, she
would feel incredulous.
“Cin!” Matthias called, “Stop hesitating. We have no time left! We should hurry and get out of here!”
Cindy bit her lips in bitterness and gave in. “All right. Let’s go!”
Shandie’s gone. There’s nothing precious left in Jadeborough anymore. Unfortunately, I haven’t taken
revenge for her. Hmph! I’ll regain power first before I return to avenge her! Just you wait and see,
Arielle.
She clenched her fists as she stood up from the bed.
Suddenly, the door was flung open.
Startled, she promptly turned her head, only to see a man in a white coat. Relieved, she heaved a sigh
in her mind.
The doctor asked, “You’re awake? Great. A family member of yours is here to get you.”
“Family member?” Agitated, Cindy stared widely at the doctor. “Who is it?”
“You’ll know when you see him,” the doctor replied as he opened the door wide.
Only then did they see a man with a hunch staring menacingly at them.
It was Henrick.
Instantly, Cindy’s legs gave away, and she slumped and knelt on the ground.
Oh no! Henrick has arrived! It’s too late to run away now!
Matthias too, was shocked when he saw Henrick.
However, he recovered his calmness soon. To avoid Henrick from discovering their relationship, he did
not help Cindy get up but smiled at Henrick instead. “Mr. Southall, you’re here.”
“Shut your d*mn mouth! I’ll tend to you later!”
Henrick glared maliciously at Matthias as the bodyguards behind him stormed up and detained the
latter.
