Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Unknown Liquid (4) Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Unknown Liquid (4) At this moment, he received Carolline Ruiz’s text message and immediately called her.

“Where are you?” Bryan Hawkins asked calmly. Whenever Carolline had an accident, he had never appeared in time. He didn’t know if it was a lack of tacit understanding between them, or if fate deemed him not to be her destined partner.

He was somewhat frustrated, thinking that Matilda Ferguson would not make any more trouble. He thought the Ferguson family would obediently take the money he generously gave them, leave G City, and start a new life in a small place. But Matilda just had to stir up more trouble.

And again, she targeted Carolline. Did she really think he, Bryan Hawkins, could be so tolerant, yielding time after time?

“I’m at work.” Carolline responded calmly, although her heart was pounding hard, but she tried her best not to show any excessive excitement.

“Is there anything else you want to tell me?” Bryan Hawkins gave her another chance to actively tell him what she had encountered. This time, he would thoroughly deal with Matilda Ferguson.

“Oh, have you already approved Raymond Ruiz’s proposal? He’s very excited today and invited me out for a big meal for the first time.” However, she cut Raymond Ruiz down to size, “Actually, I just wanted you to give him a chance to meet. You didn’t have to necessarily approve his proposal.”

That way, Carolline would feel like she owed him something. She would be uneasy, as she didn’t like to owe others. But if someone owed her, she would never take it to heart.

“His proposal is not bad, and as you said, it has nothing to do with you whether it succeeds or not. So you don’t have to feel burdened. Besides this, don’t you have anything else to say?” Bryan Hawkins sounded a little anxious and somewhat angry.

“Well, …” Carolline thought about it carefully. She really did, “I’ll go to your house to visit Grandma Hawkins in a few days. I promised her that I would.”

“Okay, what else?” Bryan Hawkins felt like he was on the verge of snapping.

“…” What else? Carolline didn’t know what else there was to tell him, “You’re flying the day after tomorrow, right? So, I wish you…”

“Carolline Ruiz-” Bryan Hawkins clenched his teeth. Very good. No one ever pushed him this far. This guileless girl was the first in his life, “I’m at the entrance of your hospital. What happened to you at noon today? You don’t plan to tell me, do you?”

“…” Yes, she didn’t plan to tell him. Even if he was still her husband, she had no intention of telling him, let alone now when they were nothing. She was even less likely to tell him, “I’m fine. Really, there’s nothing to say. Besides, I’ve informed the people at Second Hospital to come and do a mental evaluation for the patient. If she’s genuinely mentally ill, she won’t compensate me. I can only swallow this bitter pill.”

She didn’t say the name Matilda Ferguson. Carolline didn’t want to dirty her mouth with those three words. She genuinely disliked Matilda, especially since she tried to do something so disgusting to her. If that act had succeeded, she would have undoubtedly died.

“There’ll be consequences whether she’s mentally ill or not. She’ll never leave the mental institution in this lifetime,” Bryan Hawkins said and hung up the phone. He was truly angry.

“…” Carolline looked at her phone, speechless. She felt his anger but didn’t fully understand why he was so angry. Even she, the victim, wasn’t this angry.

Later, Carolline learned about Bryan Hawkins’ abilities. He was truly capable. People who hurt her never ended up well. Although Bryan Hawkins hadn’t helped her in time, he took revenge for her afterward.
