Chapter 76: Investigation
Athena grunted in pain as Aiden helped her lay on the bed.
Although she had lamented that the previous hospital where Ewan had admitted her was okay, despite its locality, Aiden had insisted on moving her to one of the Whitman’s hospitals—but not the headquarters.
She knew though that the plans had been made together with Gianna, and probably Zane.
"I told you I didn’t want this transfer, now look at how I was handled on the stretcher..." She murmured, arranging the bed sheets over her, in such a way it covered from her breasts down.
She was wearing a flimsy hospital wear, with no underwear.
Aiden laughed, helping her to spread the tail of the bed sheets to the end of the bed. "Stop complaining. You are a doctor, and you know that’s how it is done. You weren’t hoping for a different treatment, were you? And besides, this ward is better. Don’t you think so?"
Athena huffed, refusing to admit the obvious truth. She couldn’t say that the bed was softer, or that the room was neater with better ventilation. She just didn’t want to be moved from one place to another.
So, she changed the topic. "Any more news about the gang? Were you able to find any clues concerning their whereabouts or hideouts?"
Aiden knew what Athena was doing, but the present topic was a very serious one, so he didn’t call her to it.
"Not exactly. The only thing I found out while checking out the hideout was that they haven’t been around in the town for long. They had just moved in. So, there weren’t many clues, but there were pictures... I guess pictures of people they want to kill, or they have killed. Most of them have been burnt. I saw the picture of the chief waiter though, the one whose dead body you had seen on the sidewalk."
Athena nodded leisurely. "What about him? Did you check him out too?"
