Chapter 440
When Evelyn couldn't find Brad, she called Cameron instead. Brad hadn't gone to the company, and Cameron didn't know where he was either.noveldrama
Anxious, she hurriedly called Daniel. "Daniel, where's Brad? I need to talk to him!"
Daniel, who was busy with work at Hamilton Group, answered her call and frowned. "Brad has some business to attend to and will be away from town for a while. Don't worry, he'll be back soon."
Brad wasn't in Janctera City? Evelyn couldn't believe her ears. "Where did he go? Why would he leave Janctera City? When is he coming back? Is he just going to leave everything behind at home?"
Daniel had no intention of answering her questions. "That's none of your concern. You should focus on Gigi. That child has been spoiled rotten by you, and she hasn't learned a single good thing. If she keeps this up, I'll send her to a reform school for girls!"
Gigi had gone too far this time. This time, no one would be able to plead her case.
Evelyn felt wronged by her husband's accusations, but she couldn't say anything to defend herself. She could only hang up on him. Then, she texted Jean, letting her know that Brad wasn't in Janctera City.
After reading the message and learning that Brad wasn't in town, Jean panicked. Where else could he have gone? Without his protection, she, a weak woman, was no match for that old geezer, Adam.
Just as she was staring at the message, feeling the weight of her sorrow, the doctor walked in and stopped right in front of her. He handed her a test requisition form.
"Jean Sawyer, right? You have a test scheduled. The lab tech will be here to draw your blood soon." After placing the form down, he turned and left.
Jean stared at the list of tests on the form and felt overwhelmed. A blood test? Of all the tests, that was the one she feared the most!
Back when Brad was around, he would always cover her eyes when she had a blood test and gently coax her, making the whole thing far less scary But now that he wasn't by her side, the thought of going through it alone filled her with dread
Subconsciously, her body resisted the idea. But before she could even mentally prepare herself, a group of nurses rushed in, held her down, and forcibly drew her blood. Jean's face went white with fear, and she wailed, threatening to expose the hospital's brutality.
Just then, Adam walked in. He was leaning on his walking stick, a smile playing
on his lips as he watched the nurse draw blood from Jean's arm. There was a strange glint in his eyes.
Once the nurses had finished drawing her blood, he turned to the hospital director beside him and said, "These nurses are quite skilled. I'd like them to be involved in the new research project I've been working on.
"Oh, and speaking of that, we still need patients to test our new drugs. I think this young woman would be a perfect fit. Her kidneys are failing, and she has uremia, so she'd be a great match for our project."
The hospital director nodded repeatedly. "You're absolutely right, Mr. Hamilton Senior. I think so too. I'll have someone draft up her application right away so she can be part of the project."
Jean stared at the two of them in horror, completely paralyzed by fear. "No! I don't want to be part of that project! Brad, where are you? Hurry up and save me!"
