“It’s in the car. I’ll go grab it,” Lethan said, heading toward the elevator..
Just then, Heath moved his eyes to look at Carlisle.
Carlisle noticed the subtle movement.
Regardless of whether Heath could hear him, he said gently, “Focus on getting better.”
Heath seemed to hear Carlisle’s voice and slowly closed his eyes.
The surgeon turned to the nurse.
“Take him to the ICU and get him on oxygen.”
Carlisle’s phone rang. He pulled it out and saw an unknown number.
After a moment of hesitation, he answered.
“Carl…”
Benjamin’s voice came through the line.
“Where are you?” Carlisle whispered.
Benjamin’s ability to make the call indicated he was okay.
“I’m at your game studio. My brother and his crew got into trouble,” Benjamin choked out.
“Stay at the studio. I’ll come find you soon.”
Carlisle hung up and found Lethan. He paid the hospital a million dollars in medical expenses and got a
receipt.
As they walked out of the hospital, Carlisle remained uneasy.
“Mr. Warbane, do you know any specialists in neurology?
Lethan thought for a moment, then shook his head,
“I don’t, but Shania might. I’ll give her a call.”
A horn sounded from the parking lot. It was a police car.
Carlisle took a deep breath and walked over.
Lethan watched Carlisle’s figure and tightened his grip on the phone.
“Lethan…”
Shania’s voice came through the phone.
Lethan snapped out of his daze and asked, “I remember you have a friend who’s a neurology specialist. Am I right?”
Chapter 325
Carlisle approached the police car, where Gabriel opened the door and gestured for him to enter.
Once seated, Gabriel got straight to the point.
“You gave Heath 15 million to develop underground forces.”
Carlisle chuckled lightly.
“I think I should consult with a lawyer before discussing this further with you. This sounds like defamation.
Gabriel glanced at Carlisle in surprise. Was this the thought process of an 18–year–old? He only intended to bluff him, but Carlisle was already discussing getting a lawyer.
Gabriel smiled faintly.
“There’s no need to be nervous. Let’s just chat.”
He then said, “Let’s start with introductions. I’m Gabriel Yost, the deputy chief of police.”
“I’m Carlisle Zahn, a freshman at Riverland University,” Carlisle calmly introduced himself. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
He knew Gabriel likely had access to his information. However, since Gabriel introduced himself, he felt reciprocating was only fair.
Gabriel continued, “What’s your relationship with Heath?”
“We’re friends,” Carlisle replied.
“How did you meet?” Gabriel inquired further.
Carlisle answered truthfully, “Through a mutual friend.”
Gabriel pressed on, “And who is this mutual friend?”
“Owen…”
Gabriel asked again, “Could you elaborate on how you two met and why you gave him ten million?”
“Sure… Heath and Owen are my friends from The Legendary Tale‘ game. I met Owen through mutual friends in our neighborhood. After I got into Riverland University, I invited Owen to join me, and through Owen, I met Heath…”
“Owen is only 17. Shouldn’t he be in school? Why did you take him with you?” the law enforcement officer sitting in the passenger seat asked while jotting down notes.
