The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 1818

"Where is Zion? Wisdom, you know that Zion is the person we want."

Maren realised Wisdom was looking at her with a sharp gaze as soon as she finished speaking.

He stated coldly, "If you don't want me to operate on that person, you can continue to ask about Zion. I don't mind, but I don't think that person will be able to wait."

Maren was stunned.

Wisdom was unconcerned about what she thought. He walked to the changing room by himself. Then, he changed his clothes and burnt his old clothing in front of Maren.

"What are you doing?"

"I have Zion's breath and fingerprints on me."

Hearing Wisdom's words, Maren couldn't help looking at him a few more times.

Wisdom seemed to be a cautious individual the more she got to know him. She would be a happy woman for the rest of her life if she could be cared for by such a man.

Maren was enticed and tried to move near to him, but Wisdom stopped her with a chilly stare.

Wisdom didn't have a happy expression on his face as she grinned awkwardly.

"Get lost if there's nothing else. Don't come back here. I don't want to see you again, even if you came here to visit as an ordinary person. Otherwise, the operation might not go as planned."

"How dare you!"

Maren bit her lower lip, and her face was a little upset.

Wisdom was so hateful!

However, she was in no position to continue making a fuss considering Wisdom’s background, his ability, and his influence in the medical field.

Hence, Maren snorted and left angrily.

After she left, Wisdom took out his phone and gave an order to his assistant.

"Find someone to disinfect my office. All places must be sterilized. Also, open the window for 12 hours before closing it."

The assistant was taken aback and couldn't help but comment, "If you open the window for 12 hours, it means that the window will be open at night. Doctor Ye, it isn't a good idea to allow cold air inside."

"Do as I say."

Wisdom rarely spoke in such a cold voice.

The assistant jumped in fright and hurriedly agreed.

After Wisdom hung up the phone, he was a little annoyed. He pulled his collar but still didn't feel comfortable. He couldn't help but leave the office.

As soon as he got in the car, he received a call from Mango.

Wisdom looked at the caller ID and frowned slightly, but he didn’t rush to answer the call.

He hesitated for a while before picking up the call.

"Mom."

Wisdom opened his mouth in a low voice, and his eyes were a little teary.

Mango didn't realize that there was something wrong with Wisdom's voice. She just asked with concern, "Are you at Santell Capital?"

"Yes, I'll go back after performing an operation."

Wisdom didn't say much.

Mango didn't have any doubts about him. She whispered, "I recently learned that you are suffering from a stomach ailment. You're also a doctor, Wisdom. Don't forget to eat when you're outside. I understand that as a doctor, you won't have much time to do so when you're performing an operation. I believe that having a weak stomach at such a young age is not a good sign. You should go home after the operation, and I'll take good care of you."

Wisdom started tearing up even more when he heard Mango's nagging.

"Mom, who told you that? My stomach is doing perfectly fine."

"Really? If you're really fine, will you pass out from the stomachache in the middle of the night? How long do you want to hide it from me and your father? If you don't listen to your father's advice, he says he'll get Zion to tie you up after the operation. In any case, the choice is yours. So, I'm not going to stop you. Make sure you look after yourself.”

After that, Mango hung up the phone.

Wisdom looked at the phone in his hand, and his throat tightened.

There was only one person who knew that he had fainted because of a stomachache at midnight. It was Kate.

But why did Kate tell his mother about this?

Were they together?

Wisdom was at a loss.

He found Kate's phone number, but he did not call her.

It didn't seem appropriate to look for her at this time.

Wisdom sighed and hung up the phone before driving away.

When Zion woke up, he found himself tied up in a strange room.

The layout of the room was great, and this was the style that Wisdom liked.

He frowned upon thinking of what had happened before he passed out. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

It was hard for him to imagine that he would be drugged by Wisdom one day.

He was always on the lookout after serving in the army for so long. He wouldn't drink anything provided to him when he went out, but he didn't realise he had to guard against his family one day.

How could this be?

Zion felt a little depressed and upset.

He wondered how Evangeline was doing these days and if she was concerned about him.

Zion struggled terribly, only to discover that the rope that bound him was unusual.

He was slightly stunned, and then he quickly flipped his fingers behind him.

Sure enough, the rope was untied in an instant.

Zion was confused.

When he and Wisdom were younger, they devised this strategy. This knot could only be done by the two of them. Wisdom joked at the time that if the two of them ever turned against each other over something, such a solution would give them an extra way out and calm them down.

Zion had dismissed this as a joke in the past, but now he felt a little sad now that he had learnt the truth.

Was this the way escape that Wisdom was providing him with?

In fact, Wisdom didn't intend to tie him up in the first place, did he?

Zion kept finding excuses for Wisdom, but it didn't make sense.

Suddenly, he heard footsteps outside.

He quickly returned the rope to its original state. Then, he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Soon, two people walked into the room.

He looked over at Zion and stated quietly, "I told you that he wouldn't be able to wake up. Wisdom has drugged him enough that an elephant wouldn't wake up, let alone a human like him. Let's get going and check the news. Also, Wisdom doesn't want us to harm him, right?"

The other person was a little worried when he saw Zion in a coma. He quickly stretched out his hand and poked under Zion's nose.

Zion quickly adjusted his breathing and pretended to be asleep.

The other person noticed his breathing pattern and exhaled a sigh of relief.

"Well, you're right to be a little more careful After all, we were asked to keep a watchful eye on Zion. We must not allow the him to flee. As you know, he's really skilful, and we don't want to get into trouble if he escapes."

The two of them checked Zion again before turning to leave.

When the room became completely quiet, Zion opened his eyes.

It was really Wisdom!

Over the years, they had all assumed Wisdom was only interested in medical knowledge. Hence, they had no idea he possessed his own power, and these people all feared him.

So, what else was Wisdom hiding from him? How many other identities did Wisdom have that he didn't know about?

For a moment, Zion was a little confused. He even felt that he had never known Wisdom.
