Chapter 511 Order Him Around


    Noah was immediately sent to the operating room. After a few hours, he was able to get out of


    surgery alive and expected to make a full recovery. He was then transferred to the hospital where


    Nina stayed and his ward was adjacent to hers.


    After taking the unconscious Cali to the hospital, Leon went to see Nina and told her everything.


    "Van and Don are with our parents. They''re safe. You don''t need to worry about them. Only after


    Cali wakes up can we figure out what really transpired. The soldiers on the forest ind were able


    to catch Tasha. She was sent to prison and used of hunting the elks, but she kept her mouth


    shut about who hired her."


    "It''s most probably Jett. He''s been trying to bring Vicente down for so many years and has nted


    many spies in Vicente''s household. Vicente couldn''t purge all of them," said Nina, leaning against


    the headboard. "We don''t have enough evidence to incriminate him. Without evidence, we can''t do


    anything."


    "During this period of time, we should let Van and Don stay with our parents. They''ll be safer there.


    You can go see them anytime you want anyway. You can also visit our parents. They miss you very


    much." Leon walked to the side of the bed, tucked Nina in, and touched her head. He smiled at her.


    "What are you smiling at?" Nina looked up at him.


    Leon answered, "I''m happy for you. I''m d that you finally remember the man you love and that


    the man you love also loves you. He''s willing to leave everything behind in Lexingport City for you


    including his pride. He can finally be with you.


    You better divorce Vicente when the right timees. Don''t let John wait any longer. Maybe you


    should go back to Lexingport City with him and continue your life there. I''ll stay here with our


    parents. You can do anything you want."


    "Thank you, Leon." As the back of her eyes stung, Nina threw herself into her brother''s arms and


    hugged him around the waist. Tears started streaming down her face. "You''re my favorite person in


    the world, and I love you so much. You know that, right?"


    Leon smiled gently and patted her head. "You''re also my favorite person in the world, so you have


    to promise me that you''ll take good care of yourself and always watch your back. Otherwise, I''ll


    me myself for not being there to protect you."


    "Okay," Nina replied nasally.


    "Why are you crying? Stop crying. Let me wipe your tears." Leon took out a tissue and wiped Nina''s


    face, but the more he wiped, the more she cried.


    His heart ached. "Don''t cry. If you keep crying, others will think that I''m bullying you. Dad and Mom


    will exile me, and John will beat me to a pulp. There are also Vicente and Noah. If those two work


    together to avenge you, I''ll end up as chopped body parts scattered all over the ind. Is that what


    you want?"


    "Ha-ha..." Nina smiled through her tears. She swiped the tissue from Leon''s hand and wiped her


    face. "Stop exaggerating as if everyone can bully you."


    Leon scoffed, "Of course not everyone can bully me. I''m just saying there are people out there


    who''ll hurt me if I hurt you. I really appreciate that they have changed you. When I wasn''t by your


    side, they took care of you for me. So I allow them to bully me for your sake."


    "Really?" Nina''s eyes lit up. Leon had a bad feeling about this, but he still nodded.


    Then, Nina turned her head and looked at the man standing at the door of the ward. Suddenly, she


    pouted and whined, "John, Leon bullied me just now and made me cry."


    Leon whipped his head to his sister, eyes bulging. Then, the hair on the back of his neck stood on


    end.


    He swallowed as he heard John rub his hands and pop his knuckles.


    "Are you kidding me? You used to be so kind-hearted, Nina.


    Anyway, I have to go and attend to something. Get some rest and eat on time, okay?"


    Leon looked fiercely at John and snapped, "Take good care of Nina. Otherwise, I won''t let you go."


    Then he turned around and started heading to the door.


    When he passed by John''s side, his arm was grabbed.


    "We need to talk," John said in a cold, emotionless voice.


    Before Leon was dragged away, he nced at Nina who was sitting on the bed and smiling


    innocently. He thought that since John could make her happy, he better follow him.


    Seeing this scene, Wynn, who was standing guard outside, clicked his tongue. He thought that it


    was so sad that a noble prince had been reduced to an easily-bullied position.


    "Wynn!" Leon called through gritted teeth. "Have you forgotten your duty?"


    Wynn''s smile slowly faded away. He walked over to stand in front of Leon. With Wynn''s help, Leon


    became smug again.


    "Please show mercy," Wynn said to John.


    "How about you fight John, Wynn?" Leon encouraged.


    Wynn''s eyes widened in shock. If it were in the past, he would definitely say yes. But now, he did


    not dare. He had heard from one of Vicente''s men how powerful and unstoppable John was. Wynn


    did not want to suffer.


    "Leon, you used to be a gentleman. Now you''re like the princess who''s always itching for a fight."


    "What did you just say?" Leon pped Wynn in the head.


    Ignoring the two of them, John said calmly, "Let''s not tell Nina about Noah''s injury. I don''t want her


    to worry."


    "Rx. I didn''t tell her anything." Leon smiled meaningfully. "You''re not afraid that she''ll worry about


    Noah, are you? You''re afraid that she''ll insist on taking care of him. Noah purposely caught a knife


    in the stomach for you. How could you still think that he''s out to steal Nina?"


    John''s face betrayed emotion as he answered, "I''ll thank him but not by letting Nina fuss over him."


    "I guess that''s fair." Leon just smiled and did not say anything more.


    They went to Noah''s ward together. Noah had just woken up. His face was still pale, and his lips


    were dry.


    Noah swallowed and winced at the dryness of his mouth. He wanted to drink some water. He


    nced around the ward, and the first person he saw was Wynn.


    "Wynn, can you get me a ss of water?" His throat felt as dry as a desert.


    Wynn nodded and said, "Okay."


    But Leon stopped him. "No. Let him get it."


    Before Leon could finish his words, John already went to get a ss of warm water and handed it to


    Noah. "If you need anything else, just tell me."


    Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    Looking at John''s hand in front of him, Noah considered forgetting about the water and just letting


    his mouth stay dry like a carcass in the sun. John must be here to return the favor because he had


    saved his life, but Noah was not about to ask for anything in return.


    Seeing Noah hesitate, Leon said, "This is the perfect time to order him around, Noah. He wants to


    thank you for saving his life."


    John cast a cold nce at Leon, imagining what he would look like without a nose that he could


    stick into other people''s business.


    Leon pursed his lips and sensed that he would definitely get a fist in the face the next time he


    talked. So after a few moments of awkward silence, he excused himself and took Wynn back to


    guard Nina''s ward. His talk with John would have to wait.


    "Thank you." Noah finally took the ss from John''s hand and downed its contents. The warm


    water wet his mouth and throat like rainwater on a withered field. When he spoke again, his throat


    felt much better. "I want another ss, please."


    "Okay." John poured him another ss. "She remembers everything now."


    Noah caught his breath and stared at John, his eyes darkening.
