Second Chances

CHAPTER 217



Gina glanced at him playfully under her mask and said, “What do you think?” 

“Since you said so, it must have been settled.” Owen replied. 

Gina smirked and said. “Don’t you know what your mother is capable of? How dare she break my son’s hand? She’s either lying in the emergency room or the morgue now.” 

“That’s great” Owen broke into a big smile when he heard that As long as they don’t cause any trouble, Alyssa can’t do anything to us this time. Mom, make sure she doesn’t find out about this 

Gina replied. “I know, I know. Now hurry up and go. By the way, your hand hasn’t recovered yet. Don’t drink or move around too much. Do you hear me?” 

Owen responded perfunctonly and left the room immediately. 

In the courtyard. Owen got into the passenger seat of a fluorescent–colored Lamborghini, Without looking at the driver, he said. “Let’s go to Eldor Bar.” 

The driver remained silent. 

Owen ignored him and took out his phone to scroll through his Instagram. Then, he made loud phone calls filled with profanities, discussing something with people at the bar. 

He didn’t forget to urge the driver, “Hey, speed up! Did you hear me? Drive faster!” 

The driver was unmoved and continued to drive at a steady speed. 

However, he changed to a route with fewer cameras, one that was almost deserted at night. 

Owen couldn’t react in time. He put the phone aside and scratched his chin, saying, “Is this a shortcut? Wait, this road doesn’t seem familiar” 

Owen opened the navigation on his phone to check the route to the bar. To his surprise, he was further away 

He was instantly enraged, raising his hand to slap and scold the driver, questioning him about what was going on, “What the hell are you… 

Before he could finish the sentence, a strong arm grabbed his wrist. His phone was thrown out of the window, and his neck was locked in the passenger seat 

Owen was scared out of his wits. “Who…. Who are you? What do you want?” 

The driver then removed his disguise as the Allen family chauffeur. He was wearing a black mask and had a long scar–next to his left eye. It was obvious that he wasn’t the Allen family’s servant. 

Owen had been cowardly since childhood, always hiding behind Gina and putting on a false front 

Now that he was trapped in the car with his phone thrown out, he was so scared that he almost wet his pants. 

“What do you want? How much money do you want? I’ll give it all to you. I have money, and my dad has money too! Don’t do anything rash, please,” 

The man in the black mask said, “We don’t want money” 

“You don’t want money? Then what do you want? Owen swallowed hard.

However, that man did not say anything. He only stared at Ower and suddenly laughed sinisterly. 

His eyes were filled with describable chill and cruelty. 

In the next second, Owen’s vision turned black. He didn’t even have time to scream before he lost consciousness.

“Mr. Hall, we’ve figured it out,” said Levi. 

Liam had mobilized Team Thunder. He did not need a night at 11. In just ten minutes, he had found the culprit. 

“It’s the Allen family. The youngest son of the Allen family had conflict with Mrs. Hall and Ms. Kemp at the entrance of a bar. Gina worried that her son might get into trouble. So, she hid a fugitive to silence the two ladies. Owen is now in our hands, and the entire Allen family is under our surveillance, Lai reported. 

After listening to the assistant’s words, Liam thought of Emma’s juries and tears. His gloomy aura intensified, and he coldly commanded. “I want the Allen family to disappear from us city before dawn!” 

Meanwhile, Lawson’s three–hour surgery was finally over. 

After stepping down from the operating table, Lawson reorganized himself, left the emergency room, and went to talk to Liam in the corridor. His mouth was dry, and he did not even have time to drink water. “The patient is alright now, but there might be complications. It depends on the subsequent rehabilitation. Damn you, I am worn out. You owe me big time for 

this. 

Idam only glanced at him without saying anything. 

He didn’t bother with formalities since he and Lawson were childhood friends, having known each other since they were a few years old. After growing up, Liam studied finance and went into business, while Lawson stayed in the medical field. 

There were only three Grail Hero Emblems in the world, one of which originally belonged to Lawson. 

However, Lawson didn’t like to be restrained and never participated in the selection, so he didn’t receive the emblem. making him a hidden big shot. 

Despite being extremely tired, Lawson didn’t forget to gossip and glanced into the ward. “Who is this woman? Why are you so upset? Is she your girlfriend?” 

Liam gave him a cold look, “She’s my wife’s best friend.” 

Lawson’s eyes widened instantly, looking at Liam in disbelief as if he had seen something indescribable. 

Then, he exploded with profanity, saying a curse word. 

“When the hell did you get married? Why do I know nothing? Wait, you went through so much trouble to get me here for just a bestie of your wife?… Wait, does her bestie have a boyfriend?” asked Lawson. 

Liam looked at him in disdain. “Stop drooling. I’m going to keep my wife company. You rest early. The man’s expression was still as cold as usual. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Seeing Liam leaving, Lawson immediately raised his voice and juljusted his gold–rimmed glasses, “You haven’t paid me for the surgery!” 

Liam stated flatly. “Go to the hospital director and put it on the insurance.” 

“Fuck!” Lawson cursed. 

Someone had advised him that a doctor should speak less profanities. He hadn’t cursed for three to five years. But after

“I, a top expert, specially flew over here to help you. You’re so rich, but you won’t spare a million or tw 

for me?” 

Liam retorted, “If my wife weren’t sick right now, I wouldn’t need you. She can handle it herself” 

Lawson’s face turned red. “Who’s your wife?” 

He was proud of his medical skills, so he scoffed, “Her best friend is only in her twenties at most. Your wife is probably a young girl too. How can she compare to me?” 

Liam turned around and saw Lawson’s smug expression. He could not help but want to strike him down a peg. “Indeed, she’s only 20 years old. She never charges for treatment. Unlike your exorbitant fees of millions, she really can’t be compared to you. Oh, by the way, she’s also known as Grail. 

“Thump.” It was the sound of Lawson’s jaw dropping to the ground. 

The previously smug man suddenly fell silent, thinking he had misheard. He thought, ‘Grail? The Grail I know? Liam’s wife is Grail? The world–famous Grail is a 20–year–old girl?” 

Lawson felt like he was about to explode. He chased after Liam, but Liam had already entered Emma’s ward, preparing to shut him out! 

“Don’t close the door!” Lawson said. 

One of his arms was wedged in the crack of the door, firmly blocking it and preventing Liam from shutting him out. 

Lawson barged in forcefully. In the next second, he locked eyes with the girl on the bed.
