Chapter 0080
The sky started to light up early the next morning.
Samantha was abruptly awakened by Alexis‘ phone call. It was followed by loud
knocking at the door and Francis‘ furious shouting downstairs.
Just as she pushed the door open, Alexis rushed into the room barefoot. She grabbed a couple of outfits and attempted to put them on Samantha.
“What’s wrong?”
Samantha wore the clothes with barely opened eyes.
Alexis‘ eyes were red.
“Do you remember Robb? He is going to jail for intentional murder. I want to see him
before he goes in! What about you?”
Samantha was stunned. Unlike her relationship with Uncle Robb, Alexis also
learned a lot from him.
“I’m coming!”
Samantha nodded and dressed herself. She even wore a mask and a pair of
sunglasses.
When they arrived at the hospital, Robb’s hands were in silver handcuffs. Evelyn
was beside with tears.
Samantha, wearing a mask, stood nearby. She watched the pale Robb stand by
Harry’s bed, bowing his head with his bloodshot eyes.
“Uncle Robb,” Alexis called out softly while taking a step forward.
“Alexis.”
Robb managed a bitter smile. He attempted to raise his hand to touch Alexis‘ head,
but a metallic sound interrupted him. Hence, he could only lower his hands.
“Uncle Robb, how did you end up like this?”
Alexis grabbed his hands
Robb’s eyes, which had dimmed, suddenly lit up.
He stared fixedly out the window and whispered, “Because of Kendrick! Mr. Hayes clearly said that as long as I harmed that woman, it would be fine. But Kendrick
found out… If I had killed that woman back then… Hehe!”
Robb laughed to himself. The police officers behind him quickly and efficiently
pulled him away. They were half dragging him, as he had lost his composure.
Alexis‘ eyes turned red as she watched Robb and the police officer leave.
Samantha tightened her fist as she watched them. Her eyes turned cold.
Mr. Hayes?
She adjusted her mask and didn’t spend too much time in the ward. However, before
leaving, she found the doctor to inquire about Harry’s condition.
“It’s hard to say, but we still recommend going abroad.”
The doctor shook his head while holding the medical report.
“After all, their medical advancements are much more advanced, and the probability
of succeeding is higher, especially for patients who have been in a coma for many
years…”
Samantha closed the door. Looking at the nurses and patients coming and going.
she lowered her eyes. She wanted her parents to go overseas, and all she had to do
was to let Alexis know.
Still, she hesitated because Kendrick may have placed a spy by her side.
The things on both sides of the balance were truly incomparable. She hoped more
than achieving revenge that her father could wake up from his slumber and
accompany the aging Evelyn.
Samantha returned to the ward and stood beside Evelyn.
“The doctor said it would be better to treat him overseas.”
“Really?”
Evelyn’s eyes lit up.
“Yeah.”
Samantha nodded.
She didn’t stay for long as she only had 20 minutes left before going to work.
She briefly explained that they could call if they needed help. She also discussed
with Alexis the search for a medical team abroad. Samantha left the hospital.
She reached the office right on time and saw Kendrick at the entrance.
“Good morning, Mr. Ford.”
Samantha pulled her mask.
Alexis woke her up early in the morning, so she didn’t even have time to do her
makeup.
“Are you sick?”
Kendrick walked into the elevator and waited for her to join him.
“No, I just didn’t do my makeup.”
Samantha admitted honestly, taking off her mask. She looked at herself in the
reflective mirror of the elevator. Then, she put the mask back on.
As they reached the floor, Samantha took the lead and left first. She encountered
Linda who came over with the excuse of delivering some documents.
“Have you caught a cold or something? Don’t pass it to Kenny!”
Linda waved her hands in disgust when she saw Samantha’s mask.
Samantha ignored her and walked straight ahead. She only wanted to complete her
tasks quicker and start looking for a group of medical experts.
Linda began to pester Kendrick, shoving her b*dy up against him. However,
Kendrick remained emotionless. He was curious as to why Samantha didn’t do her

makeup.
Samantha’s efficiency and productivity was very high at work today. She finished her assignments as soon as possible and was about to leave when Kendrick stopped her.
He said, “There are many teams of experts out there.”
“What?”
Samantha looked at him, puzzled.
“I said, there are many teams of medical experts overseas. You just need to tell me.
Kendrick knocked on the table, making some noise.
Samantha clutched the hem of her clothes.
Kendrick seemed to know everything as he had an extra pair of eyes by her side at
all times. The previous agreement meant nothing to Kendrick. His smile became
even more of an eye–sore now.
“Tell you what?”
“Leave Francis and be mine,” Kendrick said without a tone of threat, as if it was a
good deal.
“Francis is my friend.”
Samantha didn’t expect Kendrick to say that.
