CHAPTER 209: CHAPTER 209: ISN’T THAT TOO FIERCE?

Selene Wilson was far more impatient than Lucas Hughes and directly instructed him to act tonight.

"What? Act tonight? This... is way too rushed. There’s no time to prepare anything."

Lucas was stunned; he hadn’t expected Selene to be this anxious.

Selene frowned. "Then when do you plan to act? I don’t have the patience to wait too long."

She was still waiting to wrap things up here quickly so she could return overseas.

She didn’t want to waste so much time here.

Moreover, she couldn’t wait!

She especially didn’t want him to make her wait too long!

"I... Miss Wilson, could you give me some time to prepare? I’ll be ready and give you an answer tomorrow, alright?"

Of course, Lucas wanted to get the money as soon as possible.

But he also knew Alexander Johnson wasn’t someone to be trifled with.

If he tried to gain at Alexander’s expense but ended up losing even more, it would be disastrous.

"Here’s the deal, I’ll give you one week. You can use this week to make thorough preparations, but you must act after that."

Selene paused before speaking.

She didn’t necessarily have to act immediately. If Chloe Simpson were to meet with trouble right after arriving at the hospital, and Alexander started to suspect her, things would become messy.

After all, he was the Duke Harington of the Capital Circle; it was best avoided if possible.

"Alright, Miss Wilson, rest assured. Within this week, I will certainly be ready."

Lucas nodded earnestly, vowing with conviction.

He considered himself to know Chloe best.

A week was enough. He was certain he could prepare successfully.

"Alright, then a week it is. Make sure you prepare thoroughly. If I don’t get the result I want after a week, I’ll come straight to you."

"Also, in the next couple of days, I’ll be accompanying Alexander Johnson to the hospital. Make sure to keep your distance from me. Don’t let Alexander notice any anomalies."

After saying this, Selene reminded him again, still worried.

"Yes, Miss Wilson. Rest assured, you can count on me for this. Ever since my wedding night, Chloe and Alexander have been entangled without pause. I’ve had enough dealings with him to have a solid grasp of the situation."

Lucas responded respectfully and hung up the phone after speaking.

Meanwhile, neither Chloe Simpson nor Alexander Johnson were aware of the plan concocted by Selene Wilson and Lucas Hughes.

The next day, Alexander went straight back to the hospital according to the prearranged plan.

Upon arriving at the hospital, the first person he sought out was Tyler Howard.

"Director Howard, first of all, I’d like to apologize for being away from the hospital and absent from the psychological intervention clinic during this time. Secondly, I need to request once more that Director Howard gather the same people we had previously in the psychological intervention clinic."

"I had to attend to urgent company matters before, which left me with no choice but to go to the company. Recently, it’s been incredibly busy, an absolute whirlwind. But now, things are stable. I’ve taken care of everything over there. Director Howard, rest assured, this time I’ll make sure the psychological intervention clinic is up and running properly."

Alexander knew that no matter what he said, Tyler wouldn’t refuse. So he spoke politely just to touch bases.

"Alright, Young Mister Johnson, rest assured. Give me one day, and I promise to bring those people back."

Tyler Howard responded decisively.

"Alright, Director Howard, thank you for your hard work."

Alexander replied courteously and then turned to leave.

However, as soon as Alexander left, Tyler immediately called Gabriella Dyer.

"Mrs. Johnson, the Eldest Young Master just came by. Everything’s as you anticipated. I casually mentioned it, and also, the matter involving Chloe has already started, but this isn’t something that can be prolonged indefinitely."

"Otherwise, if Chloe finds out, all our progress will be for nothing. No matter what, she is medically trained. If it’s not feasible, perhaps it’s better to pause for a few days."

Tyler reported to Gabriella cautiously.

"Pause? Heh, once the wheels are in motion, how can they stop? Didn’t I provide you with two kinds of medication? If this one is too slow, then use the stronger one instead!"

Gabriella chuckled coldly and issued the command without hesitation.

"What? That one’s way too strong. If something goes wrong..."
