Chapter 499 Imminent Danger

Jake deliberately said those joking words in a righteous tone.

Faye was amused and said, “What an ambitious aspiration. I wish your dream come true.”

Jake teased, “I will carry you if my dream comes true.”

Faye said with a smile, “Okay. I’m waiting for it.”

It was already 6 p.m. when Faye left Jake’s clinic.

Originally, Faye prepared to treat Jake to dinner, but Jake declined it with a lame excuse.

Faye understood how Jake felt at this moment. She didn’t expose his excuse, nor did she force him.

Faye drove to the hospital after leaving the clinic.

It was rush hour and there was traffic congestion all the way.

It was almost 8 p.m. when Faye arrived at the hospital.

After parking the car, Faye went to the canteen of the hospital and packed out a bowl of vegetable

porridge. Then she directly took an elevator to Colin’s ward.

She heard Abbot’s tease when she reached the door of the ward.

“Colin, would you like some spicy seafood?”

“The spicy seafood of this restaurant tastes good.”

“It tastes more delicious with an icy beer. Tsk, tsk.”

Abbot said with a fake smile, “Now that it’s so delicious, we can order two more of it. I will pay for it and

you can enjoy it to your heart’s content.”

Abbot said with a teasing smile, “Will you be so kind-hearted? This is not your way of doing things.”

Colin replied, “I’m always tolerant of those dying people.”

Faye listened to Colin and Abbot’s joke at the door. Suppressing her laughter, she then pushed open

the door and walked in.

Colin and Abbot quieted down simultaneously when they heard the sound from the door.

Seeing Faye, Abbot cleaned up the seafood on the table, reached out to take two tissues from the

bedside table, wiped his hand, and said, “Oh, Faye, you’re back.”

Faye replied with a smile, “Yep.”

Abbot took a glance at the meal box in Faye’s hand and asked curiously, “Is this Colin’s dinner?”

Faye replied, “Yep. It’s vegetable porridge.”

Abbot chimed in, “Porridge is good. It nurtures your stomach.”

Faye asked with a smile, “Would you like some?”

Abbot scratched his hair and declined with a smile. “No, thanks. This is bought for Colin and it contains

your love for him. I’m afraid that Colin will get mad at me if I eat it.”

He then walked to the bedside, reached out to pat Colin’s shoulder, and said, “Since Faye is back, I’ll

excuse myself. Call me if you have any problem.”

Colin replied, “Fuck off.”

Abbot raised his brows when he heard Colin’s words and asked, “How can you be so impolite to your

brother?”

Colin smiled angrily and asked, “Abbot, do you want to be beaten up?”

Abbot provoked him, “Stand up to beat me if you’re capable.”

Looking at the complacent Abbot, Colin gritted his teeth and said, “Rest assured. I will satisfy your wish

one day.”

On the other side...

Sitting in his office, Jake smoked cigarettes dejectedly in his office after Faye’s leaving.

After smoking the last cigarette in the pack, he heaved a long sigh, stood up, and left his office.

After walking out of the clinic, he rolled down the shutter door and then stared at the board on which

there was the word “closed”, having a heavy heart and mixed feelings.

To be honest, Jake didn’t regret his choices.

It was just that he had put much effort into this clinic and he somehow felt a bit upset when he abruptly

had to close it.

After staring at the shutter door for a while, Jake took out his phone from his pocket and then walked to

the parking lot while dialing a number.

When the call was answered, Jake said in a deep voice, “I will go there soon. Reserve two bottles of

alcohol for me.”

The person at the other end of the line said, “Go to another place if you want to drink alcohol. Don’t

come to my place. I feel bothered whenever seeing you.”

Jake said, “Cut the crap.”

Then he directly ended the call without giving the other party any chance to retort him.

Before hanging up his phone, Jake heard some curses from the person at the other end of the line.

Forty minutes later, Jake drove to a bar.

He opened the car door and got out of the car. As soon as he entered the bar, a waiter walked forward

and greeted him, “Dr. Thomas, it’s been a long time.”

Jake replied, “Yep. I have been very busy recently.”

The waiter asked, “The same room?”

Jake took off his jacket, hung it on his arm, and asked, “Your boss told me he’s redecorating the rooms

in the bar.”

The waiter replied, “Other rooms are redecorated. But the room you always reserved is kept. Our boss

doesn’t have the heart to change it.”

Jake chuckled when he heard the waiter’s words and commented, “He’s not that ungrateful. My

frequent visit deserves it.”

The waiter had gotten familiar with Jake at usual times. He teased, “Frequent? You only come here

once half a year. If our boss has to earn his living by your consumption, he would have been starved NôvelDrama.Org content.

earlier.”

Jake asked, “is it so exaggerated?”

The waiter asked instead, “What do you think of it?”

While chitchatting with Jake, he took him into a private room.

As soon as they walked into the room, eight robust men showed up in the bar.

A waiter hurriedly walked forward to greet them when he saw them.

The leader of these men looked askance at the waiter and asked indifferently, “Where’s that man? The

one who just stepped into your bar.”
