Chapter 739


    Since when has Leon be this caring? Lying on the bed, Zayne really wished to turn to lie on his


    side. Due to the anesthetics, he didn’t feel much pain; he just felt ufortable because he couldn’t


    stretch his body. Nevertheless, he wasn’t hoping for anyone to understand his feelings at this moment.


    He attempted to move his body as he was worried if he had actually be handicapped.


    Leon nced at Zayne in puzzlement, wondering what he was struggling about. Zayne didn’t seem to


    be in a good situation, but Leon had no idea how to help him. The two of them faced each other while


    Leon stared at Zayne with an inquiring look, but he still couldn’t understand what was on Zayne’s mind.


    It was only until Matthias came into the ward did the standstill between the twoe to an end. Leon


    stood up and stared at Matthias. At that moment, all three of them were at a loss for words as an


    awkward atmosphere arose in the ward.


    s, Leon spoke up and broke the ice. “I’m going to buy oranges for him. Please stay here and watch


    over him.”


    Leon’s expression was very unnatural––he even sounded awkward. They really needed a woman at


    this moment. When will Heather arrive so that this awkward situation can dissipate?


    Looking at Leon’s stiff posture, Matthias smirked. Then, he averted his gaze to Zayne, who looked


    pitiful lying in the bed. Matthias felt sorry for him but was amused at the same time. Anyway, I should


    let him quench his thirst first.


    So, he walked straight to Zayne with a spoon in his hand. To think about it, he had never served


    someone like this before. He was reminded of his mother, who had passed away a long time ago. Back


    then, he was still young and didn’t know how to attend to others, so he could only watch helplessly from


    the side.


    Now that he was put in a situation to serve the others, Matthias could only imitate what he could


    remember. He took the cup of hot water and walked up to Zayne. After all this while, the water had


    cooled down a little so the temperature was just nice.


    Matthias looked down at Zayne. As much as it was rather awkward for two men to be in a situation like


    this, Matthias nned to feed Zayne the water scoop by scoop. It wasn’t an easy process. Matthias


    had to be extra careful lest the water would spill on the bed sheet.


    However, before Zayne could finish drinking, Leon rushed in. Matthias and Zayne turned to look at


    Leon at the same time as they didn’t know what was the hurry about.


    “Something happened outside,” Leon said while panting. He had never seen such a scene before and


    was taken aback.


    Matthias and Zayne gazed at each other as they didn’t know what Leon was referring to. Meanwhile,


    Leon quickly closed the ward door and stared nkly at Zayne’s bed as if he was pondering a serious


    matter.


    The other two didn’t understand what Leon’s expression was about, but they knew something terrible


    must have happened. Otherwise, Leon wouldn’t be this perturbed. It seems like the matter is bing


    moreplicated. What should we do now?


    “We have to leave this ce,” Leon said after catching his breath. He couldn’t think of a better idea; for


    now, that was the most reliable solution he coulde up with.


    “Leave here? Where do you n to go?” Matthias asked in perplexity as he didn’t understand what


    Leon meant.


    With a deep frown, Leon said resignedly, “We don’t have time to discuss where to go. Right now, we


    have to quickly run for our lives.”


    There was no time to exin further. Leon was contemting how they could move Zayne away from


    here as this was not an easy task.


    On the other hand, Zayne was shocked hearing Leon’s words. “You better not be making jokes at this


    point in time. We’re in the hospital. Why should we run for our lives?”


    Both Zayne and Matthias couldn’t understand what terrible things could actually happen in the hospital,


    so they naturally found Leon’s statement suspicious.


    “You guys are so stubborn. I don’t have time to exin to you. I have to think of a way to move Zayne


    away now!” Leon had a look of exasperation on his face; he couldn’t even be bothered to be angry at


    them.


    Seeing the other two looking unflustered, Leon was worried sick, but this matter couldn’t be exined


    clearly in just a few words.


    “Calm down. You have to tell us what exactly happened out there.” Matthias furrowed his brows as he


    had no idea why Leon was in such a panic.


    “Okay, okay,” Leon grumbled impatiently.


    “There’s a medical dispute out there. A patient’s family member is attacking the others with a knife right


    now as we speak. We have to leave here immediately. I’m worried that he’ll bring us troubleter,” Leon


    exined in a serious manner.


    However, Matthias and Zayne heaved a sigh of relief as they had never thought this was what actually


    happened. They even felt like Leon was fooling around with them.


    “Just that?” Zayne asked in uncertainty.


    Leon nodded. “Yeah, but it’s not a normal medical dispute.” There was a hidden meaning in Leon’s


    remark.


    Zayne instantly got it while Matthias was still puzzled. What exactly does Leon mean?


    “Then, we should leave here immediately.” Zayne agreed with Leon’s proposal. The hospital wasn’t a


    safe ce to stay anymore and they should escape as soon as possible!


    Although Matthias was still confused, he trusted Zayne’s judgment. Since even Zayne agreed, this


    matter must be not as simple as it seemed. As such, they had to quickly think of a way to leave the


    ce. However, besides leaving via the ward door, how else could they leave the room? Since Leon


    had blocked the ward door, it was obvious that it wasn’t an option anymore. As such, they were in a


    quandary.


    Although the ward wasn’t too high as it was situated on the third floor, it wasn’t easy to get down from


    here either. Moreover, Zayne was having casts all over his body and Matthias didn’t dare to just move


    him around. Given such a situation, it seemed to be difficult for all three of them to leave together.


    “We can only leave through the ward door,” Matthias said calmly as being in a panic wouldn’t help at


    this moment.


    Zayne and Leon exchanged nces as that was exactly what they were thinking about too. A while


    “Do you guys have a n yet?” Leon did not expect that Zayne would actually agree to leave via the


    ward door.


    The attacker outside was going after Zayne. If he were to go out at this moment, he would expose


    himself.


    “Is the person out there a hitman?” Matthias finally got his head around the situation and thought the


    attacker could be merely using the medical dispute as an excuse to cause a scene but was actually a


    hitman sent toe after Zayne.


    Leon nodded solemnly. He wondered who Zayne had offended that the person had to use such dirty


    methods toe after him. If it wasn’t that he had encrypted Zayne’s ward number beforehand, the


    hitman could have found them long ago.


    “Does he have a gun?” Guns were still something Mattihas smarted.


    “He didn’t look like he was armed, but I can’t say for sure.” Leon tried to recall the scene when he saw


    the attacker just now. He was certain that the said person wasing after Zayne.


    “I can deal with him.” Matthias stood out as the other two could only rely on him now.


    Zayne gazed at Matthias in doubt. Although he knew Matthias was a good fighter, he was still worried.


    After all, their enemy was a professional killer, which was not someone who could be handled by any


    ordinary person.


    Meanwhile, Leon instantly rejected Matthias’ proposal. “Matthias, you won’t be able to beat him. Do you


    know why I could tell he was a hitman at one nce?”


    Matthias looked at Leon in confusion. This was exactly the point he couldn’tprehend. Since Leon


    had brought it up, he would dly hear Leon’s exnation.


    “Because I’ve once got my hands on a register of hitmen and have seen the same person in that


    register. He’s one of the top 100 assassins in the world.” Until today, Leon could clearly remember the


    Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    hitmen in the register. He was disgusted whenever he was reminded of it because the hitmen in the


    register must have ughtered countless lives.


    Matthias felt his scalp tingling as he had never expected to run into such an onerous situation. It was


    indeed tricky to deal with killers. After all, the skills Matthias had were meant to confront the enemy


    head-to-head. However, assassins usually had a variety of ambushing skills and it was difficult to deal


    with the enemy when they were attacking in the dark. As such, Matthias couldn’t ensure if he would be


    able to protect Zayne.


    “So are we going to sit here and await our doom?” Matthias said in a self-deprecating manner while


    Zayne was racking his brain. If Jason was around at this moment, their problems would be solved.


    Nheless, no one expected the enemy to act so rapidly––even sending a hitman after nning the


    car ident.


    As far as Zayne knew, there were only a few people who were capable of arranging so many things to


    happen in such a short time. As such, the identity of the mastermind behind these incidents was


    bing more clear.


    Zayne could almost figure out who the mastermind was because it wasn’t hard to identify him or her


    after a process of elimination. Currently, there were two people whom Zayne suspected the most, but


    he couldn’t confirm which one it was.


    “No. We can wait for Heather toe to our rescue.” Leon gave up on the idea to move Zayne away


    because it wasn’t a realistic solution given the current situation. In contrast, Zayne could be easily


    exposed if they went out.


    After saying that, Leon immediately called Heather. He was dying for her to pick up the call as soon as


    possible because he had put all his hopes on her.


    Heather was still in the cab when she received Leon’s call out of the blue. After she picked up the call,


    Leon anxiously informed her about their current situation and urged her to quickly bring Jason over.


    However, this was impossible to achieve. Looking at the GPS on her phone, Heather felt like Leon was


    joking with her. How could she possibly bring Jason over in such a short time?


    After pondering for a while, Heather asked Leon, “Do you have any way to contact Jason?”


    Leon only had one phone with him now. Was Heather expecting him to use his phone to gain private


    information on Jason? Even if that worked out, there was no guarantee that they would be able to get


    in touch with Jason.


    “Heather, I’m afraid I can’t do that right now. Before this, I spent almost 4 hours at home searching, and


    I still couldn’t find any information about Jason. So…” Before Leon could finish his sentence, he turned


    around and looked at Zayne. He had almost forgotten that Zayne had regained consciousness now, so


    he would surely have a way to get in contact with Jason.


    Without hanging up the call, Leon said to Zayne anxiously, “Zayne, quickly contact Jason. He’s the only


    person who can save you now.”


    Zayne wore a resigned expression as hey in bed. “Even if I tried, I too wouldn’t be able to contact


    him at this point in time.”


    Since Jason got really angry this time, he definitely wouldn’t bring anything with him. Therefore,


    contacting him right now was close to impossible. At this thought, Zayne felt he could only rely on fate


    for now.


    “Forget about it. I’ll go find Jason.” Heather wasn’t hopeful anymore. Now that things had escted to


    such a situation, the only way was to find Jason as soon as possible.


    “Seems like I’m doomed this time,” Zayne said in a rxed manner; it was as if he was referring to


    someone else.
