Chapter 322: Three-Day Deadline
Lucy Clayton was in a good mood today for two reasons: first, she had been transferred to a different hospital, and second, her condition had stabilized. Her eyes and legs didn’t ache as much anymore. After drinking a glass of milk and eating an egg in the morning, she even specifically called her three children and three kept women to the hospital.
She was that kind of domineering man, the type whose lovers, when gathered together, didn’t dare say a word out of line, but instead had to appear very harmonious.
It was during this moment of familial bliss with her three girlfriends and children that Yusuf Zuck, accompanied by Fleur Carson, pushed open the door of the hospital room and entered.
Upon seeing Yusuf Zuck, Lucy Clayton was startled. Why had this plague come again? Hadn’t she been told to get lost?
"All of you, go outside. Don’t shout in the hallway, okay? Daddy will show you a magic trick later." Clayton patted the heads of the three children before the three lovers took the kids out of the room.
They didn’t dare ask anything, only obeying Clayton’s orders.
"Mr. Zuck, what can I do for you?" Clayton knew Zuck wasn’t one to visit without good reason. If he came, he definitely had something on his mind. Clayton even felt that if Zuck wanted to kill someone, he probably wouldn’t care about the venue—he could just as well do it in a hospital.
Yusuf Zuck didn’t answer him; he just stared straight at him.
Clayton began to feel uneasy, confused.
After staring at him for over three minutes, with Clayton’s forehead already sweating, Yusuf Zuck finally said, "Did you have anything to do with what happened to Ember Vance?"
