    Chapter 1097 No Progress Yet


    Upon arriving at the hospital under Beauvort Group’s management, Frederic couldn’t wait to see Jean.


    Unexpectedly, before he even left his ward, he saw Jean stride in, wearing a hospital gown.


    “Jean!”


    The moment Wrenn saw him, her eyes welled up with tears. She quickly grabbed his arm, examining


    him from head to toe.


    But Jean didn’t want to talk about his own affairs. Instead, he asked Frederic, “What are you trying to


    do? You’ve just been in a car ident and your body hasn’t recovered yet. Why did you insist on


    transferring hospitals under these circumstances?”


    He only found out that the elders had arrived after hearing about it from Isabe.


    After the elders left, Isabe couldn’t help but worry, which was why she called Jean.


    “Did something happen to you?”


    Caught off guard by the question, Jean instinctively hesitated to answer, worried that she might ry


    his response to Neera.


    “I’m fine. What’s up? Why are you asking that all of a sudden?”


    Isabe didn’t delve into the details. She simply recounted what had just happened.


    “Your dad suddenly became agitated after hearing something, insisting on being transferred to the main


    hospital under Beauvort Group. He wouldn’t tell me why, and I couldn’t dissuade him. So, I had no


    choice but to arrange his discharge. He’s already on his way.”


    Jean didn’t expect the


    news to reach the two elders so quickly. A frown creased his brow.


    After expressing his gratitude, he offered no exnation.


    Frederic was extremely anxious, and now that he finally saw Jean, he didn’t even listen to Jean’s


    questions. He hurriedly checked him.


    “Where are you hurt? Is it an internal or external injury? Is it serious?”


    Despite his advanced age, he was visibly flustered at the moment. His worry was written all over his


    face, impossible to hide.


    Jean’s heart suddenly softened. He sighed silently, his tone bing much gentler.


    “I’m fine, really, Dad, Mom. Don’t worry about me. It’s nothing serious. Especially you, Dad, you should


    take care of yourself. If you strain your injury, you’ll be the one suffering in the end.”


    Wrenn didn’t believe him. Choking back tears, she said, “How can you be fine? Yourplexion is


    terrible. Please don’t hide it from me and your father anymore. Are you trying to worry us to death?”


    As she spoke, tears began to fall from her eyes.


    Jean fell silent for a moment.

    Indeed, hisplexion wasn’t the best. After all, he had just suffered from an illness a few days ago


    and was


    attacked against night.


    If it weren’t for his poor health, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a sorry statest night, nearly falling


    into the hands of those people.


    Seeing his mother’s tear-streaked face, he felt both a headache and helplessness. He couldn’t bear to


    share the details with them and cause them to worry. All he could do was patientlyfort them.


    “I’m really okay. My face just looks a bit scary, but my body is fine. I didn’t suffer any external or internal


    injuries. I just fainted for a bit and I’m all right now. As forn, he was in the driver’s seat and got hurt.


    He suffered a concussion. But the doctor said it’s not serious, so you all can rest assured.”


    With that, he skillfully changed the subject before reassuring Frederic once again, “Dad, you shouldn’t


    worry anymore. Just focus on resting and recuperating. No more fussing around.”


    After Frederic made sure that Jean was truly all right, his heart, which had been in his throat, finally


    settled back down.


    He nodded repeatedly. “All right, all right, I understand. You should also hurry back and get some good


    rest. I won’t bother you anymore.”

    Jean nodded, then returned to his own room.


    No sooner had he stepped in than Nathaniel arrived. He didn’t even have a chance to sit down.


    “Nathaniel,” he greeted immediately.


    Nathaniel nodded slightly, giving him a careful look and expressing his concern, “Your injury isn’t too


    severe, is it?”


    Jean nodded. “No. I’m fine.”


    The two sat face to face, and Nathaniel went straight to the point.

    “Last night, I worked through the night to investigate. From the surveince footage, I identified the two


    culprits. After cross-referencing with our internal records, I confirmed that both are fugitives with


    criminal records. Currently, the police are issuing a nationwide manhunt for them, but there has been


    no progress so far.”


    He paused for a moment, his face stern and cold, his eyes dimmed.


    “If they were just ordinary fugitives, they wouldn’t be so hard to catch. But it seems they’re not mere


    fugitives since they’re bold enough to ram you with a car. It’s also unknown if they have someone


    pulling the strings behind the scenes. And if they do, who could it be? But no matter what their


    background is, they can’t escape. The police have already sealed off all the entrances and exits in the


    city. I’ve also dispatched more personnel to investigate the surrounding area, so you can rest assured.”


    Jean trusted in his abilities, expressing his gratitude by saying, “Thank you for your efforts, Nathaniel.”


    Nathaniel stood up and lightly patted his shoulder.


    “All right, we’re family. No need for formalities. You should rest up first. Leave everything else to me. My


    parents wille to see youter.”


    Jean nodded.


    After Nathaniel left, hey on the bed, deep in thought.


    Before long, Storm and Cloud hurriedly returned.


    During this/period, they had been closely following Asher. Upon hearing that their boss had met with


    misfortune, they were deeply worried and rushed over immediately.
