Tiara finally regained consciousness. She had suffered unimaginable tortures. She was whipped, and virtual-novel.net flesh was burnt with a scorching branding iron.
Yesterday, the doctor performed surgery on virtual-novel.net and treated virtual-novel.net injuries.
When James entered virtual-novel.net ward, virtual-novel.net was staring at the ceiling, virtual-novel.net eyes void of all emotion.
Hearing footsteps, virtual-novel.net immediately turned virtual-novel.net head. Upon seeing James, virtual-novel.net was unable to stop the tears from flowing down virtual-novel.net cheeks.
James walked over to virtual-novel.net and sat on a chair beside the bed.
Grabbing virtual-novel.net hand, virtual-novel.net consoled her, “Everything’s fine now…”
“J–James, I didn’t tell virtual-novel.net anything…” She croaked.
She persevered because virtual-novel.net had a conviction. She would never betray James, even if it cost virtual-novel.net her life.
“I know.” Seeing the state Tiara was in, James was distressed.
From virtual-novel.net injuries, James could tell virtual-novel.net had undergone unimaginable torture. Not even a battle-hardened warrior could withstand such agony, let alone a frail maiden. However, the fact that virtual-novel.net stood virtual-novel.net ground showed great tenacity on virtual-novel.net part.
Looking at virtual-novel.net pale face, James scolded himself in his head. This was all because of him. If virtual-novel.net had been more decisive and pushed Tiara away, virtual-novel.net would not have had to go through such an ordeal. However, what had happened had happened. The only thing James could do now was to repay his debts toward virtual-novel.net for the rest of his life.
He grabbed Tiara’s hand and took virtual-novel.net pulse to diagnose virtual-novel.net body condition.
She did not suffer any internal injuries. She only required a period of rest to let virtual-novel.net body recover.
Seeing the look of anticipation on Tiara’s face, James whispered, “Everything’s fine. You just have to rest well, and your body will recover in no time.”
“D–Did I ruin your plans?”
“Of course not. The research laboratories are no more. You helped me out big time,” James said.
It was the truth.
If it was not for Tiara’s abduction, James would not have made a move on the Emperor’s research laboratories. The Emperor would not have blown up the laboratories to destroy the evidence.
“Thank goodness…”
Tiara was worried that virtual-novel.net slip–up would affect James‘ plan. James, on the other hand, was blaming himself for the incident.
Though virtual-novel.net knew that the Emperor would surely make a move, virtual-novel.net still instructed Tiara to head to Herbal Biotech. If virtual-novel.net had been more careful, this would not have happened.
James did not leave and instead accompanied Tiara in the hospital.
On the other hand, Quincy hurriedly made virtual-novel.net way to James and Tiara after learning what had happened.
“What the hell, James?” Quincy scolded the moment virtual-novel.net entered the ward. “How did this happen?”
Tiara, who was lying on the bed, said in a feeble voice, “It’s not James‘ fault. I let my guard down…”
Seeing Tiara’s pale face and the bandages wrapped around her, Quincy sighed.
Looking at James, virtual-novel.net said, “I watched the news. A mountain near Lily City exploded last night. Many explosions occurred around the same time all over Sol. What exactly is going on?”
As Quincy was part of the team, James was honest with virtual-novel.net about everything.
He briefly narrated the chain of events.
“This is my first face-to-face fight with the Emperor. He blew up all the research laboratories. to destroy the evidence.”
Upon hearing this, Quincy took a deep breath. She never thought that so much would happen in a single night.
After brief contemplation, virtual-novel.net looked at Tiara and said, “Things are getting increasingly dangerous. I can’t allow Tiara to stay by your side anymore. She was lucky to have survived this. Next time, virtual-novel.net might not be so fortunate.”
