Chapter 139
Matilda set out from Berry Manor and headed to the detention center. When she arrived and sawNixon, the sky was still dark. Meanwhile, Lea received a call from Jason.
“Miss Berry, Matil is currently at the detention center meeting Nixon. Should I replace out what they’rediscussing“”
Lea walked over to the window, lifted the curtain slightly, and glanced outside.
The horizon was brightening, painted with a vibrant red hue,
It was going to be a beautiful day.
“No need, just keep tracking her movements.”
Matilda had received a message from Quicksilver and went straight to see Nixon. Len could guessthe purpose of Matilda’s visit
“Understood!” Jason replied.
Lea hung up the phone and stood by the window for a while. Less than twenty minutes later, Jasoncalled again. “Matilda has left. Her car is heading toward Berry Manor”
Currently, the Berry family, except for Lea, believed that Matilda’s connection to Fraley Hospital wasmerely due to her being the only heir of the Fraley family with inheritance rights
Lea intended to avoid suspicion and use this fact to lessen the impact on her while replaceing a way tosave the hospital.
“I understand.” Lea ended the call and then dialed shannon.
“Lea, you’re up early!”
“Are you ready? When are you leaving?
Shannon was thrilled and excited. Her luggage was packed, and she was just waiting for dawn todepart.
After receiving the interview notice from Conrad University, Shannon had been working evenharder.
Last night, Shannon worked on the hospital’s security system until past four in the morning
With the sky soon to brighten, she decided to stay awake and pack her bags, figuring she couldsleep on the plane.
Lea heard her excited voice and paused for a moment but quickly understood. Tm leaving on time.Change your flight and go ahead of me. Take Yannis with you, Tell him I instructed him toaccompany you to Iverton
Shannon was taken aback by Lea’s instructions and almost asked if something had happened.
However, knowing Lea’s mind and current arrangements, Shannon decided to follow herinstructions completely.
“Okay, I’ll head our now and wait for you at the hotel with Yannis”
Last night, they had booked a hotel near Conrad University in Iverton.

“Okay” After hanging up, Lea held her phone and looked up. She saw her reflection in the glasswindow.
Lea had barely slept the whole night.
On one hand, she was waiting for news, trying to figure out Matilda’s intentions,
On the other hand, she was dealing with the research problems that Charles and his teamencountered.
Since her rebirth, Lea’s daily sleep had been less than five hours. Her young body and strongwillpower could sustain her, but the dark circles under her eyes were heavy, making her looksomewhat fatigued and even slightly older.
Lea thought about traveling with Alfred, but she didn’t want to appear unwell, so she decided tocatch up on some sleep.
Their flight was a little after ten o’clock, giving her enough time to rest,
At Riverview Hospital, Shannon, with a backpack and a small suitcase, came out of the staff roomand took the elevator to the basement.
Shannon had previously shared a room with Donna to take care of her and to save money.

However, Donna often berated and bossed Shannon around, instructing her to do everything. Eventhough Shannon had mentally prepared herself, Donna severely disrupted her life.
Chris couldn’t stand it and arranged for Shannon to stay
ay in the s staff dormitory under the guise of employment.
Yannis, since saving Lea had been living and eating at the hospital. The basement had severalsmall rooms for the security staff, and he stayed in one of them
As Shannon reached the elevator, she saw Chris approaching
Chris was dressed in a black suit with a matching silk camisole underneath. Her hair was parted inthe middle and tied back in a ponytail, giving her a stylish and energetic look.
ly too?” Shannon asked in surprise,
“Chris, you’re up this early
Shannon knew Chris was very busy and had a lot on her plate, but she hadn’t expected Chris to beout working so early
Moreover, Chris looked so energetic and beautiful, making Shannon admire her even more.
“Yes, I have some matters to attend to.” Chris replied.
Lea had purchased Frank’s medical technology patents, and Chris was going to handle the detailsof the handover.
The hospital was gearing up for significant changes, and there were many tasks awaiting Chris.
“Why are you heading out so early? Isn’t your flight at around ten?” Chris asked, scrutinizing her.
After the SAT exam, Shannon had been staying up too late, and her eyes were swollen.
She was practically risking her health for her future.
chris felt a pang of sympathy, reminded of her younger self.
“I just couldn’t sleep. Lea told me to go ahead, so I changed my flight. It’s a good time to leavenow,” she replied.
“Changed your flight?” Chris asked cautiously.
“Yes,” she nodded.
“What else did she say? Chris continued.
“She told me to bring Yannis along
“That idiot?”
Shannon was taken aback, but she had to admit that Yannis did seem a bit clueless sometimes.
She nodded in agreement.
Chris pondered for a moment, then took a thick envelope from her brickcase and handed it toShannon.
“This is a bonus from the project. I wish you success in your interview.” Chins smiled.
paid yesterday?”
Shannon stared in disbelief. “Didn’t we just get p
10 thousand dollars was a huge amount for her. It would be more than enough for her trip.
“That was your salary for the month, paid in advance. Take it Chris insisted, pushing the money intoher hands. The value of this recent project is much higher than you think. This is just a small part
of it”
Chris knew Shannon was struggling financially but never pitied her or offered private assistance.Shannon was too talented for that
Instead, Chris gave her more opportunities at work.
Shannon nodded, holding the envelope, feeling the weight of the thousand dollars. It was heavierthan its actual weight, warm, and deeply touching-
“Thank you!” Her voice was choked with emotion.
Chris nodded. “Good luck
The elevator doors opened, and they both stepped in.

Chris exited the clevator on the first floor. Meanwhile, Shannon reached the basement, dragging hersuitcase down the corridor toward Yannis? small room
Bang! Bang! Bang!
She hadn’t even reached the door when she heard a series of intense noises.
“Yannis!” Shannon dropped her backpack and suitcase, rushing forward and slamming her bodyagainst the door
Bang!
She and the door crashed to the ground, and she felt like she was shattered into pieces. A wave ofdizziness and darkness engulfed her vision
Shannon heard a voice and forced herself to stay conscious. She blinked her eyes open, and hervision slowly cleared.
In front of her stood a burly figure, wearing only tight boxers. From her angle, he looked enormous,like a towering mountain.
“What are you doing!”
The young man’s muscles were prominent and well–defined, though marked by numerous scars.Particularly noticeable was a long, jagged, and fresh scar on his chest, which was quite shocking.
His entire body was drenched in sweat, glistening under the light and exuding raw po
power.
The scars didn’t detract from his appearance. Instead, they added an air of rugged strength andfierceness.
This was the first time Shannon had seen a man dressed so scantily, especially one with such aphysique. She was momentarily stunned.
A drop of liquid hit her face, snapping her out of her daze. She wiped it off with her hand. It wassweat, dripping from Yannis hair like raindrops,
Shannon struggled to get up, but the fall had been hard. Despite being young, her physicalcondition was poor, not built to withstand such impacts
She barely managed to lift herself halfway before collapsing back down.
Suddenly, she felt her body carried.
Yannis had grabbed her arm and lifted her up as if she were a small pet.
Shannon felt a surge of humiliation
Once she was on her feet, this feeling intensified even more,
