"Not necessarily." Frank remained calm and composed. "I've already instructed someone to look into it. We should be able to confirm things by tonight."
When we returned to Region Gardens, we happened to run into Dr. Travis, who was there to give Grandma acupuncture.
But before I could greet him, Julie ran out, looking flustered.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
*Madam Shaw has collapsed,"
I quickly ran to the room and threw myself beside Grandma, seeing her bluish lips. Tears instantly filled my eyes. "Grandma!"
Frank followed closely behind, knowing I wouldn't be consoled easily. He said, "Charlotte, let's have Dr. Travis check on Grandma."
I managed to calm down a little and made space for Dr. Travis.
At times like this, I hated that I wasn't a doctor and couldn't do anything.
Moreover, Grandma had collapsed on the floor. I didn't know if she had hit her head. If I moved her incorrectly, she might be in even more danger. Seeing me kneeling on the floor, Frank couldn't stand it "Julie, get me a cushion."
Julie quickly brought one over.
"Grandma is important, but you have a little life inside you too. If you have to kneel, at least kneel on the cushion."
Hearing Frank's words, my hands instinctively went to my abdomen,
Grandma had been so happy when she learned I was pregnant. I couldn't let anything happen to the baby.
Following Frank's instructions, I sat on the cushion.
Frank breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Dr. Travis. "Dr. Travis, how did this happen? Wasn't the toxin supposed to be under control?"
Dr. Travis checked and said, "Move Madam Shaw to the bed first."
Since it was possible to move her, Frank directly lifted Grandma and placed her on the bed.
"You sit by the bed and wait patiently.
Frank pressed me to sit down and became serious. "You need to take care of yourself too, even while worrying about Grandma."
I nodded repeatedly. "I know. I don't want Grandma to wake up and see me in trouble and be even more worried."
Frank."
Alan called out to Frank from the door, but didn't elaborate or come inside.
Frank patted my face. "I'll be right back."
"Okay." I reassured him, "I'll stay here, waiting for you and for Grandma to wake up."
Frank finally felt at ease and left with Alan.
"What have you found?" Alan lowered his voice. "Jack is indeed the mastermind."
Frank wasn't surprised. He had never had a good impression of Jack.
Anyone who covets his wife couldn't possibly be a good person.
However, he glanced at his watch and offered a rare compliment. "Your efficiency has improved quite a
bit.
"It seems the old saying is true."
Alan didn't think Frank was going to praise him.
"If one had all muscles, then he would have no brain."
Alan was already used to it. After all, he had been with Frank for so many years.
He got straight to the point. "It's not that I'm fast, but Jack suddenly put all this in front of us."
Frank's eyes flashed, and he tapped the watch face, suddenly sneering.
Alan quietly moved aside.
Seeing Frank wasn't as angry as before, he continued in a low voice. "I wonder if this is a trap. After all, we couldn't find him despite our thorough investigation back then. Why has he suddenly exposed himself?" 'Why else?' Frank said inwardly.
Frank's teeth began to grind.
His wife was indeed precious, but Jack had no right to be interested.
"Find out where he's been and see where he's hidden the antidote."
Alan was puzzled. "Why not just capture him and interrogate him in the basement? We could find out by tomorrow morning at the latest,"
Frank stared at him in silence.
Alan felt a chill down his spine and broke into a cold sweat.
"Did I... say something wrong...?"
Frank put his hand in his pocket, leaning lazily against the wall, and said slowly. "This is indeed quite a tough question for you." Alan felt puzzled.
-Realizing Frank probably had more criticism prepared, Alan hurriedly said, "I'll take care of it right away."
"Wait."
Alan, with a stiff expression, turned back around. "Are there any other instructions?"
"There are no further instructions."
Frank straightened up and patted his biceps.
"Less muscle might increase the capacity of your brain.
Alan felt helpless.
Frank was always so casual about things. Just guessing his thoughts was already impressive thing to do..
It would be worse with anyone else.
Once in the car, he suddenly realized something.
'Is this because Frank has a child now that his methods have become a bit gentler?' wondered Alan.
