Shera shook her head and said, “I have a different task. Make sure her grandmother doesn’t recover.Millie has to stay in the countryside for as long as possible.”

In the small restaurant near the hospital, Millie was eating with Tobin.

“Mr. Nicolas, have you found the person who hit my grandma?”

A trace of guilt swept through his face as he said, “Millie, I’m sorry. With the Limited manpower andtechnology in the countryside, all we can do is wait for the results from the Preagend police.”

“You don’t have to apologize. I know you tried your best.”

Although Millie was disappointed, Tobin was right. The countryside wasn’t equipped and developedenough to get the information they needed.

While they ate, Travis watched them from afar in the car. Then, he got out of the car and walked intothe hospital.

Travis stood in front of Millie’s grandmother’s ward. He adjusted his face mask and pulled down his hatbefore stepping inside.

The TV was on, and the old woman was lying on the bed with her eyes closed.

Travis took out a syringe from his pocket and gently grabbed the old woman’s arm.

The pain of her skin being pierced woke her up with a start. Her eyes went wide when she saw the manin front of her.

“Who are you?”

Travis hadn’t anticipated that she would wake up. He reached out and tried to cover her mouth, but theold woman resisted and shouted, “Help! Help! There’s someone in..”

Coincidentally, a nurse was walking down the hallway at this time.

She rushed in after hearing a female cry for help.

“Who are you? Let her go immediately!”

The nurse pounced on him. Travis couldn’t complete the injection.

“Help! Someone!” the nurse shouted as well.

The situation was getting out of control. Travis couldn’t risk getting caught. He abandoned the syringeand ran away before help could come.

Millie was still eating when she received a call from the hospital.

Immediately, she and Tobin rushed back to the hospital.

It was only after Millie saw her grandma awake on the hospital bed that she breathed normally again.

“Miss Brown, someone just tried to inject your grandmother with industrial alcohol. It’s extremelydangerous, but we caught them in time,” the doctor explained, holding the dropped syringe with theliquid inside.

“And how is my grandma now? Is she in any danger?”
