Chapter 2805

    After Wanda finished her meal, Luca did not stay in the ward any longer.


    Luca grabbed her bag and left. Feeling a bit hungry herself, she was eager to return home for a quick


    meal.


    On the other hand, Percy, Luke, Jim, Marcos, and Kastov gathered together.


    It was supposed to be a drinking session, but food was served. It was okay for them to skip dinner.


    After they clinked their sses together, Marcos was the first to ask, "How is Mr. Pierre doing?"


    "The doctor performed surgery on him. He''s awake now and under medical care in the hospital ward,"


    replied Percy.


    Pierre did not want to see him.


    Therefore, Percy left the hospital as soon as the nurse pushed Pierre back to the ward.


    Pierre did not speak to him either. Old Master Mallory sat there watching over Pierre all night.


    However, before Percy left, he arranged for two caretakers to take care of Pierre. There were still


    people taking care of him after Old Master Mallory left.


    Kastov took a sip of his drink. He did not know the specifics, but he had a rough idea of it.


    "The crime scene mentioned in today''s news, was that where Pierre was held captive?" asked Kastov.


    "Yes," Luke replied this time.


    Gordan initially did not n to alert the nearby residents. However, he did not expect the man to be


    such a light sleeper. He woke up as soon as Gordan approached him.


    It was followed by a few impulsive gunshots without considering the fact that they were in a residential


    building.


    The gunshots were not silenced, and there were a few shots in session. They were not injured, but


    the residents living nearby were terrified.


    As Gordan put it, the man was sleeping outside the room where Pierre was held, which was the living


    room.


    The living room was muchrger than the room. His knockout gas could make the people inside the


    room lose their consciousness within a minute, but not the living room.


    Moreover, there was not much knockout gas left.


    Gordan did not expect them to have the guts to fire the gunshots without a silencer.


    "The Ind of Despair has suffered a great loss," said Kastov as he wore a faint smile.


    Kastov had been holding a grudge against the Ind of Despair. Not only did they not benefit from it,


    but they also suffered losses. There would be major actions taken to recover these losses.


    He would be able to gather more information about the Ind of Despair when they made a big move.


    The Ind of Despair had suffered a loss, which could also be considered a loss for Luke.


    He had instructed Gordan and Leroy to capture the faces of the two men who kidnapped Pierre. He


    intended to track them in the future and learn more about the Ind of Despair.


    Their bases and the mastermind...


    However, the discharge of their firearms sent ripples of unease and stirred a sense of rm among the


    public. Gordan incapacitated them with the knockout gas to avoid casualties. When the police arrived,


    the two men were still unconscious, and they had no chance to escape!


    Hence, the two men had fallen into the hands of the police. In ordance with the customary style of


    the Ind of Despair''s past operations, they would be abandoned for sure.


    Therefore, the photos taken had be useless.


    Luke felt somewhat frustrated and helpless.


    "How is Mr. Pierre''s condition now?" Marcos did not know either. That was why he asked.


    "Johann said there''s a 99% chance he''ll be crippled, but he can recover a little through physical


    therapy. It won''t be noticeable," replied Percy as he turned to look at Luke.


    Johann talked to Percy in private and mentioned that Pierre would have a better chance at recovery if


    Luca could give him a needling treatment.


    Why did Johann tell him about this in private?


    It was because Johann knew there was a grudge between Luca and Pierre.


    Previously, Bianca hated Pierre so much because of what happened to Nina, and now Luca hated him


    more.


    Pierre had even targeted Luca before and tried to hurt her.


    No matter how kind Luca was, there was no way she would treat Pierre.


    That was why Johann talked to Percy in private to tell him about this. He was afraid that if Old Master


    Mallory found out about this, he would force Luca to treat Pierre.


    If Luca agreed to help despite the resentment in her heart, it could still be deemed a mutually


    satisfactory oue.


    If Luca refused to help, she might disable Pierre with just a single needle.


    Those who understood dry needling treatment knew that this technique could save lives if it was used


    well, but it could also transform into a deadly weapon in the wrong hands!


    Even though ordinary doctors could not do this, Johann believed Luca could.


    Besides, there was also Luke in the picture.


    He despised Pierre so much that if Old Master Mallory found out about it and tried to force Luca to treat


    Pierre, Luke would definitely do something to protect Luca.


    It would bring no good to the rtionship between the Crawford family and the Mallory family.


    Percy also understood what Johann meant and had no intention of asking Luca for help.


    If Pierre was crippled, then so be it. Perhaps there would be less trouble if he was crippled.


    The Mallory family had been busy looking for Pierre. They had yet to deal with the consequences of the


    absurd things Pierre had done back then.


    Moreover, Pierre had brought this upon himself. If he had not caused so much trouble, his leg would


    have been fine, and he could have continued to live a glorious life as the second young master of the


    Mallory family.


    Now, he had to cover his face when he showed up in the hospital corridor and remain hidden from


    view.


    Furthermore, it was a stroke of luck that Luke did not personally disable Pierre.


    Pierre had done so many despicable things behind his back. He even hurt the woman he loved the


    most...


    Things were different for Percy. No matter how much he despised Pierre, he had to think about their


    kinship.


    However, Luke had no blood rtion with Pierre!


    If Luke really wanted to do something, Pierre might already be in prison, facing a sentence of several


    decades or more.


    Luke knew too much about Pierre. If he exposed everything he did, not only Pierre but the entire


    Mallory family would be put in a difficult situation.


    Luke was merely giving them face for Percy.


    Who was he to even mention the idea of having Luca treat Pierre?


    No way!


    Pierre did not deserve it!


    Percy shifted his gaze and raised his wine ss again. "The Mallory family was only able to enjoy a


    moment of tranquillity with everyone''s help. Thank you all."


    The group raised their sses again, and Percy''s phone lit up the moment they clinked their sses.


    He took a sip of wine and checked his phone.


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    It was a message from the nurse at the hospital.


    He had left his contact information with the two nurses who were responsible for taking care of Pierre to


    keep track of his condition.


    [Mr. Mallory, the patient is aware of his condition of having ame leg. He''s throwing a fit in his hospital


    ward.]


    Percy furrowed his brows.


    Old Master Crawford requested that Pierre be kept in the dark about his leg being crippled at the


    moment.


    He was afraid that it would cause him emotional instability and worsen the injury.


    After all, arranging today''s surgery was already quite a challenging task. Another surgery would be


    troublesome, indeed.


    Moreover, having another surgery would also poseplications.


    Percy questioned the nurse: [How did he find out?]


    The nurse replied to him immediately: [He overheard the conversation when the caretakers were


    changing shifts. The door wasn''t closed tightly, and they were unaware of it. That''s how the patient


    found out about it.]


    Caretakers were like nurses. They worked in shifts.


    When Percy hired the caretakers, he only briefed the person starting the shift, who would then ry the


    information in detail to the other caretaker.


    In that instant, the words escaped their lips, and they were unaware of the lurking ears.
