Chapter 141
Jeffred hurled his phone to the ground, and the iPhone he just bought was smashed into pieces.
The man would have exploded in fury if he could. Just before he could cause any further damage,
his son came back.
Zayne didn''t even change his shoes. He ran straight to his father,ining, "Dad, you have to
help me out here! Some guy called Kingsley insulted me! I want him dead!"
Jeffred''s fury red even further, which was supposed to be impossible. "W-What did you say?
"Kingsley!" Zayne gritted his teeth. "The guy who beat Mr. Lynch up! D*mn him! I will-"
Before he could finish, Jeffred raised his hand and gave Zayne one tight p.
Zayne held his cheek, bbergasted and astounded. "W-Why did you p me, Dad? Y-You should
have gone after King—"
Jeffred sent his son flying back with a kick before he could even finish. "I''ll kill you, you Peking
moron! Do you know what you just did, you idiot? You cross him again, and I''ll skin you alive!"
While Zayne was getting abused by his father, Kingsley came to Keene''s ward.
Cecilia was sitting beside Keene''s bed, and she got up right away. "Keene''s awake, Kingsley!"
Kingsley trotted to Keene and held her hand. It felt cold. "How do you feel, Keene? Does it still
hurt?"
"N-Not really..."
Kingsley and Keene were both staring at each other as if they were the only ones in the room,
causing Cecilia to feel a little down. She had a forlorn look on her face, and she mumbled, "I''m
getting some fruits. You guys talk." She went out with her head lowered.
Kingsley was oblivious to this change of mood in her, as all he cared about was Keene. He sat on
the chair Cecilia sat in earlier. "Don''t be so rash next time, Keene."
"I... am going to do it the next time anyway." She smiled weakly. "As long as I''m here, I''ll never let
anything hurt you." She held Kingsley''s hand gently. "I''m your sister, and I''ll always keep you safe,
even if it kills me."
"Keene..." Kingsley was touched. "That''s my line, Keene. I can keep myself and my sisters safe. I''m
strong enough now."
The mention of his sisters reminded Keene of something. "We''re in Hill Crest Hospital, right? Is
Alice in? Did you guys meet?"
"Alice ran into some trouble, and she has resigned." Keene looked worried, so Kingsley reassured
her. "But don''t worry, Keene. I''ve settled this. I''ll call her once you feel better and ask if she wants to
keep working at the hospital or open her own hospital."

"I''m fine. You should see Alice." Keene looked worried. "She''s not exactly the most extroverted girl,
and she doesn''t have a lot of friends. Losing her job must be bad for her. You should see her
tonight. Don''t worry about me." "But Beene—"
Beene interrupted him before he could even start. "I need to rest. You can''t do anything just by
staying around. Just go and see Alice, alright?"
Kingsley could not go against that, so he sighed. "Fine. Best up, Beene. I''ll be back after I see
Alice." He left the ward and took out the form with Alice''s number that Jude gave him, then he called
Alice.
"Hi, Alice speaking."
Alice''s familiar voice made Kingsley smile. "Hi, Dr. Kramer. Kemember me?" He wanted to surprise
Alice after they met, so he did not tell her his identity.
"And you are?"
"Did you forget about me? I beat Jude up and got you the chance to operate on Bailey."
"Ah, it''s you." Alice was still sounding as cool as ever. "Why are you calling me?"
Kingsley chuckled. "I told you that you don''t have to thank me and just treat me to a meal. So how
does tonight sound?" He was not sure if Alice would give him the chance. She was an aloof woman,
and he knew she would probably not go to dinner with a stranger.
Much to his surprise, Alice only hesitated for a moment before she agreed. "Fine. How does five
thirty sound? There''s a home restaurant beside Hill Crest Hospital called Restaurant Lucky. I''ll treat
you to dinner." She hung up, and a smile curled her lips. We meet again, Kingsley. She had actually
recognized Kingsley a while ago.
