Chapter 1696

"Do you really think a few guards can keep me here?"

"There’s been a misunderstanding. Your people asked us to arrange some food for you for your

welcome. Please join the VIP suite to have some rest."

Off to the side, Derrick couldn't believe his eyes. The world-renowned Dr. Bell was in fact a strikingly

beautiful and poised young lady. His heart surged into a rapid beat.

So young, yet already earned the esteemed title of Dr. Bell.

She was completely captivating.

Arabella made her way into the VIP room, only to replace Horace, legs crossed, lounging on the bed

munching on potato chips.

"Ah, Boss, you’ve arrived?"

At the sight of Arabella, Horace, his cheeks still puffed out tooting chips, urged with excitement: "These

chips are divine. You should have some."

The bodyguards in the room gazed at Arabella with deep respect. After all, she was the savior who had

saved their boss Sean's life.

"Boss, is the surgery done? Sean's still alive, isn’t he?" Horace queried.

"What do you think?"

"With Boss up to the task, of course he is! Hey!" Horace laughed, pressing a chip into Arabella's lips.

"They said we can't leave until Sean comes around, right? Come sit by me. I've saved some special

snacks just for you."

Arabella was speechless.

Horace tore open another bag of chips and tossed it to the side. The bodyguards darted forward with

bowls at the ready. Arabella could tell Horace had his amusements; he had them working up a sweat

even in the chilly winter.

One of the guards took a call and, after a whispered exchange, guns were suddenly drawn on Arabella

and Horace.

Horace, lording over the guards just a second ago, was now utterly dumbfounded as he found seven or

eight men surrounded him and Arabella. "What's the meaning of this? You dare point guns at your boss

Sean's life-saver?"

The lead bodyguard responded with deference, "Boss Sean's awake. He’s requested to see you."

Horace hadn’t expected such a turn of events from Sean. With only two pieces of snacks left, he

quickly popped one into Arabella's mouth and took the other for himself before moving to the VIP room

next door.

On the hospital bed.

Sean lay half-reclined, his commanding allure and rogue charm as strong as ever, his intimidating

presence unwavering.

He seemed not like a man fresh out of surgery, but rather like someone awakened from a restful sleep,

his demeanor calm and collected.

He smiled, looking at the pair before him, while all the bodyguards aimed their guns at them.

"Shall we talk now?" Sean asked Arabella with a playful edge. "Why were you digging into Sam? And

why are you so interested in that island?"

"You backstabber." Horace was astounded. Sean was reneging on their deal. After all, Boss Bella had

performed the surgery, and now Sean was double-crossing them.

"All’s fair in love and war," Sean quipped with a more sinister smile, as if schooling a naive subordinate.

However, Arabella too, formed her lips into a knowing smile. "I seem to have forgotten to mention, the

prescription I gave your men earlier should have seventeen ingredients. But I listed only sixteen."

Sean's smile stiffened abruptly.

Steward and the rest of the bodyguards were taken aback, not expecting the girl to have an ace up her

sleeve.

"As for the seventeenth ingredient, I'll let you know once we're safely out of here," Arabella continued

smoothly.

Sean scoffed, "How do I know you're telling the truth?"

"Right now, you don't have much of a choice but to trust me, do you?" Arabella shot back.

The operation was her doing, and without her insight for the follow-up treatment, how swiftly and how

fully Sean would heal were all in her hands.
