Ste felt that Jasper was taking advantage of her weakness, she was just trying to be courteous.


    ” Wasn’t my life endangered, because I was helping your team? ” she said softly.


    ” Huh. ” Jasper chuckled, he softened his voice, “I won’t force you, rest well. ”


    Ste felt strange. He was warm and bubbly on the phone, but in person, he became cool and distant.


    ” You too. Goodbye. ” Ste hung up the phone.


    Lieutenant Johnson peeked at Ste without saying a word.


    After sending Ste to the hospital, Lieutenant Johnson received a phone call from Jasper on his way back.


    ” Is Ste home? ” Jasper asked.


    ” No, she requested to go to the hospital. ” Lieutenant Johnson reported honestly.


    ” Okay, noted.” Jasper ended the call.


    It was better that she stays at the hospital than at home anyway.


    The morning at 8 am, Eli dashed into Ste’s office anxiously.


    ” Ste, that woman is suing you, the management is going to punish you, I heard that they are going to fire you. ” Eli said worriedly.


    ” Do you mean the pregnantdy from the other day? ” Ste asked.


    ” Yes, why did you leave a scar on her? ” Eli replied.


    ” The umbilical cord was tangled around the child, if I didn’t do so, the child would have suffocated, I’ve done nothing wrong, why does the hospital want to punish me? ” Ste exined rationally.


    ” I heard that it was an order from the top management, I’ll go get more information, on who is behind this. Could it be Federick? But then again, there is no reason for him to do so. ” Eli was worried.


    A thought came into Ste’s mind, she said, ” It must be him.” She then gave Federick a call.


    “You think of me now? Isn’t it already toote? ” Federick spoke wickedly.N?velDrama.Org content.


    ” What do you want from me? ” Ste demanded.


    ” I’ve told you to not mess with me. Come home within an hour, else you know what will happen to you. ” Federick hung up the phone without giving her a chance to reply.


    ” What did he say? ” Eli asked, she was concerned.


    ” Federick wants me home, I need to go on leave. ” Ste said reluctantly.


    ” Why do you still bother with him at this moment, just let him be. ” Eli went berserk.


    ” Federick is from the Health Bureau, the hospital is probably facing pressure from him. I need to settle this once and for all. I wille back to you when things are done.” Ste quickly packed her bag and headed home.


    As soon as Ste arrived home, she saw Federickzing on the couch.


    Federick smiled maliciously, he looked at Ste and looked at his watch, ” 48 minutes, pretty on time, how obedient.”


    Federick picked up a bag that closes to him, and threw it on the table, ” This is to reward you, see if you like it?”


    “Federick, what do you want? You have been set free, why do you still bother me? If you want to continue this, I will never divorce you and then you will be in real trouble.” Ste exined.


    ” I’ll divorce you when I’m done with you, but I’ll be the one who files for divorce, you have no right to do so.” Federick eximed. He then took out a jewelry box and passed it to her, said, ” Put it on.”


    Ste did not move, she looked at Federick and the jewelry, feeling annoyed by his behavior.


    Federick was a hunter, he loved seeing his prey struggle to survive, and he enjoyed tormenting his prey. A hunter is heartless, they will never be satisfied with just one single prey.


    Ste opened up the jewelry box, therey a pair of diamond earrings. She then closed the jewelry box and threw it back on the table.


    ” You don’t like it?” Federick looked at her and asked.


    ” You know that I don’t wear jewelry, especially as a doctor, I am not allowed to wear these. But I appreciate it, thanks.” Ste replied coldly.


    Federick picked up the earrings and put them on her ears forcefully.


    She had not worn earrings since bing a doctor, and she could feel pain as the earrings pierced her skin. She was bleeding.


    She stared at him with annoyance, and even if she still had a shred of love for him, it had now been reduced to nothing.


    He curved his lips, not smiling, and continued with the other earring, ignoring her bleeding ear.


    She clenched her fists, controlling her anger.


    “Even when you wear such beautiful jewelry, you still don’t look nice with them on,” Federickmented, he sounded disappointed.


    “I’ll disappear now, if you quickly sign the divorce papers.” She said calmly.


    He grew furious, he pointed to the bag on the sofa and demanded, “There are a dress and a pair of shoes in there, go and get changed. Don’t embarrass me. I’ll be waiting for you downstairs. See you in 10 minutes.


    Federick got up and walked out of the apartment. She was livid, and she took a piece of tissue to wipe the blood off her ears. She opened the paper bag and saw there a skimpy pink dress, and a pair of red heels.


    Ste took off the earrings and threw the earrings into the paper bags, she carried the paper bag out without getting changed.


    Federick parked his car at the gate of the apartment, typing on his phone with his usual malicious smile.


    Ste was so familiar with that smile of his, that she knew he had just sessfully hunted down another prey.


    Ste opened the door, and threw the bag in, she said, “Federick, since you think that I embarrass you, you don’t have to bring me out.” Ste mmed the door.


    Federick said, ” Are you testing my patience?”


    ” Let’s not see each other again, if you don’t have patience.” Ste said frankly.


    Federick was full of malice, he got down the car and shoved her into the car.


    He sat next to her, looked forward, and ordered the driver, ” Go to the airport.”


    ” I don’t want to go to the airport, what do you want to do there?” Ste demanded.


    Federick whipped her chin up to face him.


    ” You’d better behave yourself, before you regret.” Federick warned Ste.


    Ste looked into Federick’s eyes, knowing his evil ways, she had no choice but to obey.


    Federick let go of her when he saw that she no longer struggled.


    Ste looked out the window, she did not understand, why does Federick not set her free since he did not love her?


    Federick was a cunning man, what is he actually up to?


    Federick’s phone rang.


    ” Mr. Federick, Wilson Chuck did note to the airport, but his wife, Mrs. Chuck came instead.” Federick’s subordinate reported.


    ” Alright, is everything ready?” Federick asked with his mouth curving upwards.


    Federick was brimming with confidence
