“I can handle him, I can handle him.”

Seeing that her sister was no longer angry, Lois Hsueh nodded with a grin, “I’ll take our brother down tonight.”

Smack!

Lois Abbott smacked her on the head and said angrily, “Take down my foot! I’m warning you, a girl should have self-respect when she’s out.

Even if the two of you really get together, don’t go blabbing about everything, got it?”

Lois Hsueh, clutching the spot where she was hit, grimacing in pain, nodded repeatedly, “Got it, got it.”

“Also, keep this matter a secret from everyone for now, understand?”

“I got it, hehe, don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.”

Lois Abbott watched her sister’s jubilant expression and felt a faint feeling of melancholy rise within her, but it quickly subsided.

The longer she spent with Greg Jensen, the more she felt she couldn’t see through him.

For that very reason, she knew she couldn’t keep Greg Jensen to herself. Rather than letting someone else snatch him away, it would be better to give her sister a chance.

As for the future, they would just have to let nature take its course.

Thinking of Greg Jensen about to enter a life of being surrounded by attentions from others, Lois Abbott felt so annoyed she itched at the roots of her teeth, grinding them and saying, “That jerk is getting off way too easy!”

Achoo… Achoo…

Meanwhile, Greg Jensen was taking Norman Holmes’s pulse in the monitoring room, when he suddenly felt an itch in his nose, followed by several sneezes in succession.

Greg Jensen was now at the third level of Qi Refinement, with physical qualities far beyond ordinary people, and almost never fell ill. Common ailments like colds and rhinitis simply couldn’t affect him.

Why would he suddenly sneeze several times?

“Weird, is someone cursing me?”

Greg Jensen didn’t take it to heart and continued to take Norman Holmes’s pulse.

After a while, he slowly retracted his hand, smiling, “Apart from the sternum, there doesn’t seem to be any other major issues.

It’s just that you’ve just had surgery and your qi and blood are somewhat deficient. You need proper rest and recuperation for a while, and you must regularly take the Pill I gave your sister-in-law.”

Next to him, Jaylene River heard that her husband was out of danger and couldn’t help but be overjoyed, “Mr. Jensen, thank you so much.”

“Sister-in-law, please don’t be so formal with me. Now that I’m in a life-and- death friendship with your husband, it would be inappropriate to be so distant,” Greg Jensen replied.

Jaylene River smiled, “Alright, it’s my bad, hehe.”

Norman Holmes thought about how Greg Jensen had risked his life for him in a clash with Hugh Simmons, yet he himself had done nothing for Greg Jensen, and couldn’t help but feel a twinge of guilt.

He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and silently resolved to repay Greg Jensen in the future.

“All right, there shouldn’t be any issues during the day, so I’m going to check on the supermarket. I’ll come back tonight.”

“Okay, take care.”

Norman Holmes quickly said, “Jaylene, you and Bobby should walk Mr. Jensen out.”

“No need for that, we’re all family here. What’s there to walk out for? Just rest inside, I’ll meet up with Lois and the others and leave on my own.”

“Then take it slow.”

After saying goodbye to Norman Holmes, Greg Jensen went back to his own resting ward and saw the two sisters whispering together.

The two of them didn’t know what intimate things they were discussing, their faces all flushed like ripened apples, a feast for the eyes.

“Ahem…”

Thinking back to the awkward moment just now, Greg Jensen still felt a bit embarrassed, so he deliberately coughed lightly to alert them to his presence.

Lois Abbott’s face immediately stiffened, and she looked at him expressionlessly.

The grinning Lois Hsueh, on the other hand, even sneakily made a face.

Greg Jensen said with a smile, “We’re not needed here during the day, let’s head back to the supermarket first. I’ll come back tonight.”

“Mhm, okay.”

Lois Abbott nodded and walked out without a word.

As she passed by Greg Jensen, she didn’t even glance his way, completely devoid of the warmth she used to show.

Greg Jensen scratched his head, puzzled, and turned to ask, “Lois Hsueh, what’s with your sister?”

“What happened?”

Lois Abbott had a sly smile as she said, “My sister must have been angered by some kind of Casanova.”

“Casanova? Who? Hey, make it clear before you leave.”

Inside the villa, Kenny Walker paced around the living room like an ant on a hot pan, occasionally glancing outside the window, but Hugh Simmons’s figure was still nowhere to be seen.

” Logically speaking, Master Simmons should have returned by now. Even if he was in a hurry to get home, he should have called me.”

Wayne Cooper knew what he was worried about and hurried to reassure him, “Mr. Walker, don’t worry, with Master Simmons’s skills, even if he did fail, he would definitely be able to escape.

He hasn’t sent any news, probably because he’s too tired and went straight home to sleep.”

But Kenny Walker was not grateful at all, and instead cursed angrily, “Fail my ass, with Master Simmons’s abilities, how could he possibly fail?”

“Yes, Mr. Walker is right, Master Simmons wouldn’t fail, he must’ve just gone home to sleep.”

Wayne Cooper quickly changed his tune to flatter him, but he was somewhat skeptical in his heart.

Even if Master Simmons was great, he was still human, and humans can fail. Moreover, that young man named Greg Jensen was not weak either.

However, he merely thought that Master Simmons, ashamed of his failure, did not show up to see Kenny Walker, which is why there had been no news.

He never considered that Hugh Simmons might have actually been caught by Greg Jensen.

He had previously warned Norman Holmes that it was normal for Master Simmons to fail and flee.

Feeling a bit more at ease in his heart, Wayne Cooper was about to speak when a subordinate rushed in in a hurry.

“Mr. Walker, it’s not good. Master Simmons seems to have been caught.” “What did you say?”

Kenny Walker and Wayne Cooper were both stunned.

The subordinate quickly said, “Someone just saw Master Simmons getting into Bobby Prince’s car heading to the outskirts.”

Hiss!

Hearing his words, Kenny Walker and Wayne Cooper both took a sharp intake of breath.

Master Simmons was caught?

How is that possible?

Even if he couldn’t kill Greg Jensen and Norman Holmes, escaping shouldn’t be a problem, right?

How could he be caught by someone?

Wayne Cooper was dumbfounded and somewhat in disbelief, suspecting he had heard wrong.

Kenny Walker wasn’t faring any better.

He had always used Hugh Simmons as a secret weapon, and in all these years, he had never failed.

Yet today, this secret weapon had malfunctioned!

Wayne Cooper stole a glance at Kenny Walker and saw that his face was as stern as water, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, and the veins on his forehead bulging with obvious fury.

Seeing this, a thought suddenly sprang to life in his mind.

Falling out with Norman Holmes was like cutting off one of Kenny Walker’s arms.

Now with Hugh Simmons gone, his other arm was also broken.

The Kenny Walker before him now was like a toothless tiger, no longer to be feared.

It seems the day for him to regain his freedom isn’t far away.

With this thought, a slight smile crept onto Wayne Cooper’s lips.

Kenny Walker frowned and asked with a stern face, “Wayne Cooper, what are you laughing at?”

“Laughing? No, I wasn’t laughing. You must’ve seen wrong, right?”

Wayne Cooper had an innocent face but was inwardly nervous and quickly changed the subject, “Mr. Walker, since they took Master Simmons to the outskirts, surely it means they played their hand. You must plan ahead.” “Hmm.”

Kenny Walker nodded, his expression darkening again as he fell into deep thought.
