Ignoring the knife wound on his wrist, Yeager reached out to grab Liana's pant leg, raising his head and looking up at Liana standing high above him in desperation.
"Spill it, what the hell happened?!"
Right now, Liana couldn't stand Yeager. Just seeing him made her uncomfortable. Without a second thought, she kicked him away!
"Because of you, she almost lost her life tonight!"
Yeager thought Liana was lying to him, but when he saw the anger filled in her eyes towards him, he didn't think she was bluffing.
"Is she okay?"
He still has feelings for Hailey, but his lust overpowered his affection for her. So, hearing about her accident still worried him.
"Whether she's okay or not is none of your business now."
Liana's emotionless expression made Yeager frown.
"Dr. Terrill, you..." Yeager started to say.
"Stop calling me, you make me sick," Liana interrupted.
Yeager had gone to great lengths to frame Will and had bullied Hailey in the process.
"From now on, there's no place for you in this hospital," Liana declared, turning to face Bernard.
"Mr. Laurence, I'm going to check on Hailey," she informed Bernard, who nodded slightly. Once Liana left the room, Bernard slowly stood up.
The tall figure of Bernard loomed over Yeager like a mountain, making him shrink back on the floor. He felt suffocated, seeing himself in such a helpless state.
"What... what are you going to do now?!" Yeager asked nervously. Though he was concerned about Hailey, he was more afraid of Bernard coming after him at that moment.
Yeager used to believe that powerful people like Bernard wouldn't abuse their authority because their reputation mattered. But now, he saw that Bernard played by his own rules, misused his power, and didn't care about his reputation at all.
Yeager made up his mind, once he escapes, he would expose Bernard's actions today and make him the center of public criticism!
"Dr. Yeager, you can't escape charges for attempted murder and attempted rape."
After saying that, Bernard withdrew his cold gaze and walked away.
Looking at the arrogant figure, Yeager clenched his fists.
"Bernard, you probably don't know about Garett Falsey yet, do you?"
Garett...
Every time he heard this name, his heart would involuntarily tense up.
He feared nothing and no one, only Garett could make him feel scared.
It's not that he was afraid of Garett, but because whenever he heard her calling his name in her dreams during the past five years, he would feel uneasy.
Although Bernard didn't want to stop his steps, his pace still involuntarily slowed down, as if waiting for Yeager to say something unpleasant.
