Chapter 721 Being Kidnapped On The Street
Chapter 721 Being Kidnapped On The Street
After carefully supporting her grandfather on the bed, Sheryl turned around and went out. She walked slowly in the yard, thinking of her grandfather's low voice and the sadness in it.
She took out her phone from her pocket and dialed Leo's number.
"Sheryl, what's up?"
Leo's gentle voice came slowly with a strange energy, instantly calming all the distractions in her heart.
Sheryl tightened her grip on the phone, and her nose twitched slightly. She leaned back against a pillar and tried to keep her head up.
"I came to see grandpa today, but he is still not getting better. I'm worried about our plan. I'm afraid that grandpa might not be able to hold on by then!"
"What happened?"
Leo frowned and nodded slightly to the patient beside him. Then he stood up and walked to the window. He was also worried about grandpa's health.
If they brought Hester to him at that time, would grandpa's blood pressure rise on the spot?
"Hardy said that grandpa hasn't been getting better recently, and I just sneaked into The Orchid House and was caught right there by grandpa!"
Lowering her head listlessly, Sheryl was not in a very high mood. She looked at her toes, lost in thought.
"To The Orchid House?"
Leo gave a loud shout and secretly sweated for Sheryl. 'This is the forbidden area of the Liu family!' It was so dangerous to be caught by grandpa.
"Did he punish you? Are you still in the house? Is there anything wrong?"
Dizzy by Leo's series of questions, Sheryl slightly raised her lips with a smile. This cousin always worried about others!
"At first, grandpa looked terrible, but later I was so angry that I said something wrong, which made him in a bad mood.
Besides, he mentioned aunt today! Besides, he told me a lot of things about aunt. I can see that he really loves her very much. Maybe we misunderstood grandpa before!"
"Sheryl, I know you love grandpa very much. I also know you don't want him to be sad. But you shouldn't say it on purpose."
Leo's eyes darkened with a faint ferocity. He still remembered that his grandfather shouted angrily and smashed everything about his aunt in the old house. He didn't understand the hatred in his heart.
"I have a patient here. Bye."
Listening to the sound on the other end of the phone, Sheryl was very depressed. Her grandfather loved his aunt very much, why didn't anyone believe it?
The newly decorated law office was simple and bright, which fully reflected the professional and dutiful performance of a lawyer. Sitting at the head of the meeting room, Hester was cheering up the employees.
Because of Mr. Lucas, her business had been going on since she established the law office. There were always a variety of people coming to her and asking her to solve cases.
"This case looks ordinary on the surface, but it's difficult to deal with it properly. Since we have taken over this case, it is equivalent to a promise to our customers. I hope that you can do your best to win the victory!"
"Yes!"
Everyone present was excited and full of energy. The most important thing was that the boss was very good, and their salary was also good.
"That's all for today's meeting. Let's get back to work!"
In order not to waste their time, Hester made a long story short. In fact, she didn't have anything important to announce. She just wanted to cheer everyone up.
Jessie put the cup in her hand beside Hester's. A hint of worry flashed through her eyes. She had lost so much weight in just a month. It could be seen how much effort she had put into it.
"Miss April, there is no major case today. You should go back to rest early! Last night, you didn't sleep for the case of the hospital. If it goes on like this, your body will collapse!
You can relax! I will keep an eye on the law office and report to you in time if anything happens."
Hester leaned wearily against the chair, her eyes ruthless. She raised her hand and pinched between her eyebrows, as if she was disabled and unable to move.
A faint chirp sounded in her ears, giving her the last warning. She also knew that she couldn't go on like this, but the law office had just been established, and she must pay more attention to it. She couldn't let anything go wrong!
"Jessie, don't worry. I can hold on. A few days later, when everything in the law office is stable, I can also save trouble."
"Miss April, you look terrible now. You'd better go back and have a rest! It's only one day. It won't take too much time. Don't worry."
Under Jessie's persuasion, Hester was slowly pushed out the door of the office.
Standing at the downstairs of the law office, Hester raised her head and snuffled silently. Her heart was very subtle. If she remembered correctly, she was their boss, wasn't she?
But why was she the one who was driven out? 'It's so strange. But they really care about me.'
After hesitating for three seconds, Hester smiled with relief. 'Forget it. It's only a day. It shouldn't be a big problem.'
It was a rare day for her to relax, so she wanted to take a walk on a whim. She put her bag on her body and walked slowly on the street. Looking at the busy street, she had never been so free. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
While she was timid, she didn't notice that a car slowly stopped behind her. Someone quietly opened the door behind her, reached out an arm, and quickly pulled her into the car.
Everything happened so fast that no one noticed the abnormality just now.
Because of the former kidnapping, Hester was much calmer this time. Her hands were tightly held, unable to move at all. She took a deep breath and looked up at the situation in the car. She felt a dull pain in her temples.
"Although I know you won't let me go even if I beg you for mercy, at least please tell me who I have offended so that I have been treated like this, okay?"
The people in the car seemed to be surprised at Hester's strange calmness. Even if they wore sunglasses, their raised eyebrows could not be hidden.
The driver raised his head and glanced at the rearview mirror. There was a flash of appreciation in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He looked straight ahead and drove carefully without any distraction.
The corners of Hester's mouth twitched violently. She lowered her head helplessly, feeling powerless.
"Are these people dumb?"
