When She Stops Playing Nice

Chapter 4 5 5
Late night at the Blue Vale Hospital, the door to the room housing the all-in-one medical examination machine quietly creaked open as someone snuck
In under the cover of darkness.
In the next second, all the lights in the room suddenly blazed on and the person in black was instantly exposed.
Panicking, the intruder turned around to flee, but a group of people lying in wait surrounded him, leaving him with no escape. In a flash, he felt a sharp p r k at his neck and after touching his neck, he realized someone had shot hirm with a tranquilizer. Though he quickly pulled it out, his body soon lost strength, and he collapsed to his knees, unable to move.
Ibrahim stepped forward with his footsteps soft but steady, removing the intruder's mask before remarking, "You must be one of Gina's men, right?" Ibrahim knew Gina had saved Xander and would likely trace the trail back to Blue Vale Hospital. Anticipating this, he had been prepared. Gina's operative
was skilled, but luckily Ibrahim's readiness paid off.
The man in black passed out without saying a word.
One of Ibrahim's men asked, "What should we do with him?"
"Handle him like those goods," Ibrahim replied without hesitation.
"But shouldn't we interrogate him?" the subordinate asked with confusion. Ibrahim clicked his tongue in irritation, "What's the point? We know he's Gina's man. Do you think we'll get anything useful from him? Or do you have some specific questions to ask? His purpose of sneaking here is obvious, as he's after our machine.
"Are you an idiot? Why are you doing such a time wasting thing?"
The subordinate felt wronged and explained, "That's not what I meant, I thought if we got him to admit Gina sent him, we could use it against her. We could tell the media that Gina, the head of Prover Hospital, tried to steal our technology or destroy the all-in-one medical examination machine. This could ruin her reputation and her hospital will be affected."
It was a decent idea, but Ibrahim dismissed it. "Do you think Gina is merely a business rival?"
The subordinate was puzzled and asked, "Isn't she?"
She was, but it was more than that.
Therefore, Ibrahim had no interest in such a petty tactic.
Ibrahim instructed, "Just do as I said. Right now, it's a matter of life and death between us and Gina."
"Understood," the subordinate replied:
The next day, Gina was busy at her hospital
equipment.
Her project on the artificial seed palace had reached the next stage, requiring a new batch of equi
She was now making a list and once it was done, she'd have Dylan handle the Ichases.
Her phone rang, showing that it was a call from Michael.
"What's up?" Gina asked while continued writing
Michael's voice was heavy, informing. "Giha, we've lost contact with Keith after his mission failed."
Upon hearing. Gina paused and dropped her pen. She had tasked Michael with sending someone to investigate Blue Vale Hospital's all-in-one medical examination machine. Keith was skilled and cautious but had still been captured, showing the other party was well-prepared.
Taking a deep breath, Gina said, "We must rescue him."
understand," Michael replied.
"No. I'll go myself." Gina suddenly decided.

Michael knew how much Gina valued her team as she never forced them to risk
their life in completing tasks and wouldn't sit by when they were in danger. "Okay, we'll keep looking for Keith. I'll update you immediately if we find anything," Michael said.
"Alright."
After hanging up the phone, Gina struggled to calm her nerves, not wanting Keith to be harmed.
A knock on the door brought her back to the present when she turned to see Dylan. She completed the final list of equipment before handing it to him,
instructing, "Get these as soon as possible."
"Will do," Dylan replied, glancing at the list before nodding.
At a downtown bar, Ethan sat alone at the bar, lost in thought.
Ibrahim had shown him a quick way to make money, which he had started using. Ethan had mortgaged his properties to take out loans, using the money to lend to athers at high interest rates. It didn't sit right with him, but he was desperate for cash and too proud to ask his parents for help.
With Gabriel blocking funds from Neil, Ethan felt trapped and frustrated, wanting to find a bar to have a drink
He didn't need to personally handle the loan sharking business as Ibrahim had already taken over that burden.
Ibrahim said to him, "Mr. Jackson, isn't this a special situation? Let's handle it differently for now. I know you don't want to be involved in the loan shark business, but how about we stop after a while? Just temporarily stock up on funds for any unexpected needs. Once the all-in-one medical examination machine starts mass production and we make more money, we won't need to do this illegal business anymore. Trust me, leave everything to me, and nothing will go wrong"
It was not that Ethan didn't trust ibrahim. Although Ibrahim was a doctor, Ethan felt that sometimes he was more like a businessman. It seemed like Ibrahim was usually busy with business deals and rarely treated patients.
Ethan still remembered that Ibrahim was originally brought in by Harry to treat
Neil's heart condition, but it didn't work out.
Ethan took a sip of his drink when suddenly someone patted his shoulder. Being
initially immersed in his thoughts, Ethan was startled. He was about to tum
around and curse when he saw Shane's grinning face.
"Mr. Jackson, what are you doing here? I don't think I've seen you around here
before. What a coincidence!"
Shane tried to get close to him.
Ethan didn't recognize Shane and asked, "Who are you?"
Shane was a little surprised. "Mr. Jackson, you don't know me? Alright, let me introduce myself. My dad is Edward Benderson

Mentioning Edward jogged Ethan's memory and he started to recall that Edward was a shareholder of the Jackson Group However, Ethan thought that this had nothing to do with him since he wasn't currently involved with the Jackson Group, and its shareholders were even less relevant to him.
Ethan didn't feel like talking to Shane and he put down his glass, deciding to leave when Shane chased after him. "No, Mr. Jackson, why are you so cold?
want to be friends with you.
Ethan snorted coldly. "I'm very busy and don't have time to make hiends." "Hey, M. Jackson, don't say that. The more friends you have, the more
opportunities you have."
