Chapter 14: Successful Deal
After a moment of silence allowing Kaylin to process the information, Eric continued to call for the girl's attention with an emphatic tone:
"You understand what I'm saying, doc? And believe me, you can't pretend to be naive about this."
Eric's smirk looked obnoxious. Kaylin wanted to do something like get rid of the man in front of her from the room. Eric is pressuring Kaylin with his annoying smile.
Of course. Kaylin was smart enough to understand everything Eric had just stuffed into her brain. But my god how could she so easily accept such a false request? Even if there was a reluctant reason, the truth was that she would be involved in a troublesome case. Kaylin just wants to live peacefully, she loves her job as a doctor, the girl wants to dedicate her life to the cause of patient care. Kaylin didn't want her inherent peace to be affected by anyone else. Yet, all of a sudden, something unbelievable fell from the sky. One fine day, she and her colleagues successfully saved a man named Egan Robert. And on another fine day, someone claiming to be Egan's guardian, Eric Michael, came along and made a very wild request, to announce that Egan Robert was dead. Kaylin really couldn't believe there was such nonsense, she had a hard time accepting sudden things like this.
After a minute of analyzing and thinking about the situation, Kaylin felt it was better for her to stay away from things that smelled dangerous. With unwavering determination, she looked straight at Eric who declared:
"Listen, I think you've found the wrong person. I'm sorry, I can't..." Kaylin was about to refuse when Eric interrupted. Eric easily guessed Kaylin's intentions and he was aware that he had to dissuade her. Eric did not accept his request was denied.
"Kaylin Bush, twenty-seven years old, graduated from the city medical university...."
What is this? Eric was mumbling something that sounded familiar. But hold on, how did Eric know about that private information?
Oh my gosh, I can't believe it. Kaylin panicked when she realized what Eric was trying to do to her, she shouted to interrupt what Eric was saying.
"Stop."
"Family consists of parents, younger brother..." Eric did not listen to Kaylin, still calmly continued. He soon figured out that Kaylin would be against the idea of fooling everyone that Egan was dead, so Eric was prepared for a response. Eric investigated Kaylin's personal information to intimidate her. Eric knew Although his actions were seen as despicable, he didn't care much about the consequences, he just knew, at least the plan worked, Eric was sure of it.
"I told you to stop. Are you deaf? Or are you trying to irritate me?" Kaylin shouted louder, she got up from her armchair and looked at Eric with a mixture of horror and anger.
God, it was her private information and Eric used it to coerce her. This discovery was beyond Kaylin's imagination. It made her mind dizzy. Kaylin couldn't stand being intimidated like this, so she made a fuss and asked Eric to stop. At least Kaylin's backlash satisfied Eric and stopped as requested.
"Is this the only thing we know?" Eric ignored Kaylin's unsightly scowl, instead, he brazenly reminded.
"Don't think you can threaten me," Kaylin exclaimed, she didn't care about the consequences. She is crazy and she just wants to relieve her frustration: "Who do you think you are to have the right to treat me like that? I don't offend, what animosity towards you?"
"She's smart, she knows which choice is the best."
Eric once again casually reminded, when he saw that Kaylin was gradually stabilizing her breathing.
"Are you threatening me?" Kaylin hissed, gritting her teeth and squealing, she was very displeased to be treated in such a bad way: "Damn, who do you think you are, how dare you?"
Kaylin glared at Eric, but he didn't care about the girl's hostile attitude.
"You know what to do right?" Eric repeated those words in a very calm voice. Eric wanted to tease Kaylin's stamina.
"You scoundrel" Kaylin finally gave in, she couldn't help but curse: "Hell will welcome you."
Eric burst out laughing, making Kaylin want to explore even more. She looked at Eric with sharp eyes as if she wanted to chop Eric into a hundred pieces.
It's frustrating, too inhibited but unable to relieve it. Kaylin silently cursed her bad luck.
"Thanks for the compliment." Then Eric returned with a serious expression, he suddenly stood up. This time it was no longer a threat or a joke. With all sincerity, he told Kaylin. "Egan's life depends on you."
The furious Kaylin suddenly calmed down when she saw Eric's bowling action. Eric indeed loves to tease others. Kaylin was forced to surrender in front of the barrage of attacks. Kaylin thinks that this man only does everything to protect the people he cares for and loves. So what's wrong with her agreeing to help him? Lying isn't a bad thing from every aspect of the situation. Here the lie is to protect someone, namely Egan. And importantly, she is just helping people, not doing anything illegal or wrong. With all those good conclusions, Kaylin let out a sigh because she had just decided to step into trouble.
"That is enough." Kaylin spoke up, looking directly at Eric, who raised his head to look at her: "Just make sure I and my family don't get in trouble with this." Kaylin set the terms of the exchange.
"It'll all be over soon, once we catch the man lurking in the shadows." Eric insists: "And rest assured, from now on your safety will be my responsibility."
"What?" Kaylin was stunned by Eric's statement. She looked confused, embarrassed, and didn't know how to react. Meanwhile, Eric gave Kaylin a bright smile.
At this moment something inside both of them was activated.
Kaylin didn't know where things were going, she didn't know that her nod would take her life in a different direction, something like meeting the love of her life.
After agreeing to handle the problem at the hospital, Eric immediately proceeded to the next thing to do. Find the guy at the bar, more important than finding out about Vera.
...
Egan was quickly brought to a safe place and Kaylin continued to take care of Egan until Egan recovered. She also had reports of the sudden death of a patient named Egan Robert. Kaylin did everything very carefully and restrained suspicion from all sides. The fact that the patient has an adverse reaction to the treatment drug is a very understandable and acceptable thing if it causes the death of the patient, especially the actual surgery to replace the internal state has many potential dangers. . It can be based on the patient's body not being able to accept other people's kidneys, leading to an unsatisfactory recovery. Or the body is allergic to the ingredients of the Medicine... In short, there are many reasons to fabricate the death of a patient. But whether anyone believes or wants to clarify more is another matter. And Eric assured Kaylin that it wouldn't be revealed anytime soon. And the police won't interfere, get involved. Somehow Kaylin believed Eric, but the truth is that she completely did Eric's will, A strange thing that Kaylin herself could not explain.
At the same time the assassin decided to act early, that night he sneaked into the hospital, headed to Egan's room, his purpose was to kill people. However, he was disappointed to find the room empty. He went down to the front desk to ask about Egan and was told that Egan Robert had not survived after struggling with injuries from the accident.
The news that it was indeed welcome, but made him a little unbelieving. He immediately called the informant to investigate the truth about the rumor. As expected of Eric, the fish took a bite. Even the messenger correctly confirmed that Egan died suddenly due to a reaction to the treatment. The doctor's conclusion that the replacement kidney for Egan was not compatible led to Egan's condition becoming serious and he did not survive after hours of doctors trying to intervene to fix the problem.
That's it, a perfect play, brilliantly written by Eric and Kaylin, making the enemies believe.
Not stopping there, very quickly Eric announced that the news of the mysterious disappearance of Egan Robert was officially announced, making Egan Robert's uncle very pleased, while Egan Robert's grandfather was heartbroken. to the point of falling ill.
...
Back with Vera, she was treated in the best room of the hospital on Eric's orders. Of course, he just did what Egan wanted. In parallel with paying the full cost of Vera's treatment, Eric gave the person to collect information about Vere. While Eric himself was directly stalking Vera for a day. He discovers that Vera does nothing but read, eat, take medicine, and sleep. Vera didn't contact him, nor did anyone visit her. When Kaylin told him about Vera. The female doctor expressed her grief when she revealed that Vera was a victim of abuse. Vera was kidnapped, nearly raped. Yes, maybe Kaylin added a bit of detail behind it, but it's all true, Vera is a pitiful girl.
Currently, Eric is still standing calmly outside, leaning against the wall, patiently watching Vera's activities. Vera was sitting on the bed, busy with the knitting kit she had asked the nurse to buy for her. Vera seemed to be trying to kill her boredom. She had nothing to do but lie down, sit up. All of her activities are in bed, except when she needs to go to the bathroom. The doctor said that she needs to rest a lot and avoid activities for the incision to heal quickly. So Vera very obediently obeyed.
Eric was fed up when two hours passed Vera still hadn't stopped her actions. It was a mistake to suspect a girl who was not at all evil and shady like Vera. She is a completely pure, honest girl in the truest sense of the word.
The yawn showed the fatigue Eric was feeling. The moment he took his eyes off Vera, his phone suddenly rang.
Eric quickly picked up the phone:
"I'm listening." He told the other person.
"I found that guy." The other end of the line said.
"Send me the address." Eric immediately left his back to the wall, quickly walking towards the elevator. He needed to go there to ask the man why he wanted to kill Egan? But before that he didn't forget to send a message to Kaylin, helping him keep an eye on Vera.
...
"Who are you? Why did you bring me here?" The man complained when locked in a closed room before his eyes was a group of strangers, all of whom looked fierce.
"Let me go, what do you want, money?" He was babbling again, although no one answered him.
"Please tell me, beg you, what have I done to offend you?" He did not stop mumbling words.
The silence that still reigned made him even more afraid, his body shaking violently at the killing intent that the people in front of him were revealing. He knew that he should keep his mouth shut, people don't like it when he talks a lot, and if he takes the time to anger these aggressive people, he will get enough, incurring unnecessary pain.
Quietly, the door to the room was open. The sound of the iron door creaking made the man who was sitting on the floor startled, his heart jumped.
"Where's the person?" The voice was cold, the person who entered asked questions.
"Yes, sir over there." One of the men in charge of leading the way extended his hand towards the gathered men. While the others stood, a large rat was sitting huddled on the floor.
Eric haughtily walked over, one of his men prepared a chair for Eric to sit on. The space suddenly became silent and looked very dignified.
