Chapter 320 At that time, the beautiful secretary was busy taking care of Robert by feeding him peeled fruit slices.
Upon noticing the ward door being flung open, Robert immediately straightened up in excitement.
“Did you guys capture that b*tch?”
A group of armed men appeared at the doorway instead of his regular men. One glance at them told Robert that these people didn‘t come in peace. His expression changed drastically at the sight of the men. “Who sent you here? Do you know who I am? If you leave right now, I might spare your lives!” The subordinates had half–hearted smirks on their faces as they reported, “Mr. Langford ordered us to come here.”

Robert was surprised to hear Samuel‘s name. An elated expression soon appeared on his face.
“Mr. Langford is here?! Where is he right now? Good heavens, why didn‘t you tell me earlier?! I would‘ve told my men to welcome him here! Hurry and come in! Let‘s sit and talk, shall we? Is Mr. Langford planning to resume the collaboration with us? I knew it! Mr. Langford isn‘t the type to break his promise...”
As soon as the subordinates entered the ward, the beautiful secretary suddenly let out a piercing shriek of fear.
“Aaaaah!”
Robert couldn‘t help but chide her. “What the hell are you doing?!” “They... They...” Alice‘s eyes were as wide as dinner plates as she pointed at the bodies that the subordinates were dragging behind them. “Those are our bodyguards!” The bodyguards that were being dragged behind Samuel’s subordinates all
looked like they were on the verge of death Robert‘s elation dissipated quickly. “What the hell is going on?” “What‘s going on, you ask?” The subordinates huffed coldly. “This is the consequence of harming Mr. Langford‘s woman!” “Mr. Langford‘s woman? You mean the woman just now?! That‘s impossible! Isn‘t she just a normal secretary?!” Alice screamed in bewilderment. Robert was also very terrified after hearing the subordinates‘ words. “Yeah! She‘s just an ordinary woman! Didn‘t Mr. Langford take her to the gathering last night? How could she be his woman?!”
The subordinates just chuckled dryly. “Well, now you know! Unfortunately, it‘s too late for you to repent!”
After that, the ward door was slammed behind the subordinates. Soon, bloodcurdling screams echoed throughout the ward. Meanwhile, Tina was also admitted into a ward. “Why hasn‘t she woken up yet?” Samuel sounded irritated as he gazed at the unconscious woman on the hospital bed.
The doctor that was sent to check on Tina was also the same doctor that had treated her earlier. He didn‘t expect to see her lying on the bed only moments after treating her, which angered him greatly.
When he heard Samuel‘s impatient question, he snapped back in a dissatisfied tone, “She‘s your wife, isn‘t she? Don‘t you know her condition?”
Wife?
For some reason, Samuel didn‘t deny the doctor‘s guess. He asked with a frown, “What‘s wrong with her?” “This lady came for a check–up just now. Her constitution is already weak to begin with, yet both of you kept going at it when it comes to your bedroom activities! Naturally, she fell ill and came down with a high fever.” As he spoke, the doctor handed Tina‘s medical report over to Samuel. “I still have to tend to another patient, so you can read this on your own. Please be nicer and more considerate to your wife! Also, she must take and apply her medicine on time.” After that, the doctor left the ward immediately,
leaving Samuel and the report there. The subordinates didn‘t dare to breathe out loud for fear that the doctor‘s words had angered their boss. If that were to happen, everyone in the ward would suffer. However, Samuel could only frown. His dark and sharp eyes scanned through the report meticulously.
Immediately afterward, his expression became thunderous.
He originally thought that Tina was putting on an act the whole time. Unexpectedly, her condition seemed a little too serious.
