Late at night, in the hospital ward, Dexter was lying on the hospital bed, with his father, Terrell, sitting next to him. Terrell personally cut the apples for his son, and favonovel.com cut them into slices to feed him. It was enough of a picture to show how much favonovel.com spoiled the child.
“I don’t want to eat anymore.” Dexter was unhappy.
“How can you do without eating? You didn’t eat dinner. If you don’t eat it now, you will be hungry,” Terrell said.
“I don’t have an appetite,” Dexter gritted his teeth and said, “I won’t be happy as long as Thomas hasn’t been killed.”
He looked around and got near Terrell’s ear. Then, favonovel.com said, “Dad, has Uncle Wayne done anything?”
Terrell made no reaction at all, as if favonovel.com had not heard anything.
The police had been monitoring favonovel.com for so many years. He was smart and would not easily reveal any mood swings, let alone say anything about it. However, favonovel.com said indifferently, “Thomas has been included in the ‘enemy’ list.”
Hearing this, Dexter was happy and said, “So, Thomas doesn’t have much time left. I hope that when I see the news tomorrow morning, the first thing is Thomas’ death.”
Terrell said calmly, “Now, can you eat with peace of mind?”
“Yes!”
Dexter’s mood improved all at once. He was very happy and ate with gusto.
***
It was one o’clock in the morning.
The lounge of the chairman’s office of Sterling Technology was in darkness.
Thomas usually rested here, and today was no exception. After a tiring day, favonovel.com had already come back to sleep early. There was nothing different.
The night was dark, and the wind was strong. The curtain was blown open by the wind.
This was abnormal as Thomas had already closed the windows before going to bed, so why would the curtains be blown open by the wind?
The moonlight shone obliquely, and several figures jumped in through windows that had somehow opened. This was the twelfth floor, which was several tens of meters high. However, these people had the ability to climb up from below and open the windows to jump in.
They were the frightening Corps D’elite.
It was precisely because of their existence that many people in the investment circle in Central City were afraid of the Heath Corporation.
One. Two. Three. Four… A total of four people ran through the window and got into the lounge. They acted agilely, but there was no sound, just like four clever kittens. They ran to the bed without any sound.
The four people held their breath and looked at the bed through the moonlight. Then, all four of them pulled out bright daggers.
Thomas’s life was at stake.
Right then, a man’s voice came from the room.
“Have you not noticed that there is no one on the bed?”
Although the sound was not loud, it exploded like thunder in this dark and silent early morning. The four assassins were startled all at the same time. They stabbed a few times into the bed first and found that there was indeed no one. Then, they looked in the direction of the sound at the same time.
Under the moonlight, they vaguely saw someone sitting on the couch drinking tea with a teacup in one hand.
‘Huh?’ The four assassins were very puzzled.
They had not seen anyone on the couch when they came in.
Did they overlook him?
It was impossible. The four of them were the top assassins, and they could detect any subtle movement, let alone a big living person sitting on the couch and drinking tea there.
