NovelBookWho did this pebble belong to? Did it belong to the masked man? Did he drop the pebble by accident?
Doreen clutched the pebble tightly as if she was holding a precious diamond.
If she never saw him again, this stone would be the only thing he had left her. 4
The ambulance took Doreen to the hospital. After a series of diagnosis, the doctor was genuinely surprised to
find that her injuries were not serious, without knowing Charlie had attended to her wound previously. 3
Judging from the stab wound on her leg, it would either rupture her hamstring or worse, damage her muscles
and blood veins. 3
However, other than the superficial wound, the veins and tendons inside were intact as if they were reconnected
and much firmer than before. 1
The doctor said, "Your wound will heal after a few days of rest. By the way, this is very incredible. Did you do
something to the wound?"
Doreen was thinking about the mysterious masked man, but she said, "No, | didn't do anything."

The doctor exclaimed, "It's a miracle!" Then, he continued, "Oh yes, I've notified the police, they will
csoon. You can tell them about the attack."
Loreen nodded gently.
The police cpretty soon. They took the case very seriously since the fight occurred in the downtown area
that involved weapons and the injured victim was the top executive of Emgrand Group. 2 Among the police
officers who came, someone knew the Wilson family and that Loreen was their guest, so he notified the Wilson
family about it.
Meanwhile, at the Wilson family villa, the family members were discussing what they should do. 1
Harold told them about Loreen's incident, but he didn't say that the incident had happened because of him. Lady
Wilson thought that this was a great chance for her family to act. They must find a way to get to Loreen and save
her from the demise. At the stime, they should help Harold create a heroic scene into it so that he could
tackle Loreen's heart. 6
When they heard that Loreen was in the hospital, Lady Wilson was utterly disappointed. "It would be great if only
Harold was there for the damsel in distress moment!" 1
Then, she urged them, "Hurry, let's go to the hospital to check her out!"
Harold was treading on thin ice, he could only bite the bullet and go to the hospital with his family.
On the way to the hospital, Harold had drafted a series of speeches on his own, but he didn't know if Loreen
would believe him. 1
Upon arriving at the hospital and seeing Loreen, Harold put on a surprised look on his face and said earnestly as
he approached her, "Loreen, are you alright? I'm about to call my dad and bring a team to save you!" 3
"Save me?" A hint of irony flashed across Loreen's cold face. "You almost killed me!"
Harold frantically explained, "Loreen, please don't getwrong. | was trying to distract them. After all, they
were after me, not you, | thought they wouldn't harm you."
Loreen snorted in annoyance. She turned her head away from him and was reluctant to converse with him
anymore. She had already seen the man inside out, she only wanted to stay as far away from him as possible. 3
Since Loreen had stopped chiding him, Harold assumed that she bought his statement, so he eyed Loreen

pants? What did they do to you?" 3
Loreen sighed in irritation, she didn't want to talk to him at all. "It's none of your business!"
Alerted, Lady Wilson glanced at Loreen and saw the male jacket on her. She walked forward and asked, " Loreen,
you can tellanything. Did they do
something to me?" 2
Loreen said in an emotionless face, "They stabbed me. Fortunately, a young man who passed by the scene
saved me. He helpedtreat my stab wound, and because my pants were torn, he gavehis jacket to cover
myself. Why? Is there a problem?"
"A young man?" Lady Wilson was taken aback. 3
A young man saved Loreen? Oh no, it's not good! If Loreen fell for the young man, her precious grandson Harold
would lose his chance! s
Harold asked in an envious tone, "How did he treat you? Did he take off your pants and treat you?" 2
Loreen sneered sarcastically. "Again, it's none of your business!"
