Upon arriving at the hospital under Beauvort Group’s management, Frederic couldn’t wait to see Jean.
Unexpectedly, before he even left his ward, he saw Jean stride in, wearing a hospital gown.
“Jean!”

The moment Wrenn saw him, her eyes welled up with tears. She quickly grabbed his arm, examining him from head to toe.
But Jean didn’t want to talk about his own affairs. Instead, he asked Frederic, “What are you trying to do? You’ve just been in a car accident and your body hasn’t recovered yet. Why did you insist on transferring hospitals under these circumstances?”
He only found out that the elders had arrived after hearing about it from Isabella.
After the elders left, Isabella couldn’t help but worry, which was why she called Jean.
“Did something happen to you?”
Caught off guard by the question, Jean instinctively hesitated to answer, worried that she might relay his response to Neera.
“I’m fine. What’s up? Why are you asking that all of a sudden?”
Isabella didn’t delve into the details. She simply recounted what had just happened.
“Your dad suddenly became agitated after hearing something, insisting on being transferred to the main hospital under Beauvort Group. He wouldn’t tell me why, and I couldn’t dissuade him. So, I had no choice but to arrange his discharge. He’s already on his way.”
Jean didn’t expect the
news to reach the two elders so quickly. A frown creased his brow.
After expressing his gratitude, he offered no explanation.
Frederic was extremely anxious, and now that he finally saw Jean, he didn’t even listen to Jean’s questions. He hurriedly checked him.
“Where are you hurt? Is it an internal or external injury? Is it serious?”
Despite his advanced age, he was visibly flustered at the moment. His worry was written all over his face, impossible to hide.
Jean’s heart suddenly softened. He sighed silently, his tone becoming much gentler.
“I’m fine, really, Dad, Mom. Don’t worry about me. It’s nothing serious. Especially you, Dad, you should take care of yourself. If you strain your injury, you’ll be the one suffering in the end.”
Wrenn didn’t believe him. Choking back tears, she said, “How can you be fine? Your complexion is terrible. Please don’t hide it from me and your father anymore. Are you trying to worry us to death?”
As she spoke, tears began to fall from her eyes.
Jean fell silent for a moment.

Indeed, his complexion wasn’t the best. After all, he had just suffered from an illness a few days ago and was
attacked again last night.
If it weren’t for his poor health, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a sorry state last night, nearly falling into the hands of those people.
Seeing his mother’s tear-streaked face, he felt both a headache and helplessness. He couldn’t bear to share the details with them and cause them to worry. All he could do was patiently comfort them.
“I’m really okay. My face just looks a bit scary, but my body is fine. I didn’t suffer any external or internal injuries. I just fainted for a bit and I’m all right now. As for lan, he was in the driver’s seat and got hurt. He suffered a concussion. But the doctor said it’s not serious, so you all can rest assured.”
With that, he skillfully changed the subject before reassuring Frederic once again, “Dad, you shouldn’t worry anymore. Just focus on resting and recuperating. No more fussing around.”
After Frederic made sure that Jean was truly all right, his heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled back down.
He nodded repeatedly. “All right, all right, I understand. You should also hurry back and get some good rest. I won’t bother you anymore.”

Jean nodded, then returned to his own room.
No sooner had he stepped in than Nathaniel arrived. He didn’t even have a chance to sit down.
“Nathaniel,” he greeted immediately.
Nathaniel nodded slightly, giving him a careful look and expressing his concern, “Your injury isn’t too severe, is it?”
Jean nodded. “No. I’m fine.”
The two sat face to face, and Nathaniel went straight to the point.
“Last night, I worked through the night to investigate. From the surveillance footage, I identified the two culprits. After cross-referencing with our internal records, I confirmed that both are fugitives with criminal records. Currently, the police are issuing a nationwide manhunt for them, but there has been no progress so far.”
He paused for a moment, his face stern and cold, his eyes dimmed.
“If they were just ordinary fugitives, they wouldn’t be so hard to catch. But it seems they’re not mere fugitives since they’re bold enough to ram you with a car. It’s also unknown if they have someone pulling the strings behind the scenes. And if they do, who could it be? But no matter what their background is, they can’t escape. The police have already sealed off all the entrances and exits in the city. I’ve also dispatched more personnel to investigate the surrounding area, so you can rest assured.”
Jean trusted in his abilities, expressing his gratitude by saying, “Thank you for your efforts, Nathaniel.”
Nathaniel stood up and lightly patted his shoulder.
“All right, we’re family. No need for formalities. You should rest up first. Leave everything else to me. My parents will come to see you later.”
Jean nodded.
After Nathaniel left, he lay on the bed, deep in thought.
Before long, Storm and Cloud hurriedly returned.
During this/period, they had been closely following Asher. Upon hearing that their boss had met with misfortune, they were deeply worried and rushed over immediately.
