Chapter 245

Ch. 245 / 324 Jul 29, 2025

Sara was a little embarrassed, but she was really hungry. After going out to the police station today, she only ate one cotton candy and her stomach was empty.

She didn't know if it was because she had stayed by Hank's side for too long that her face became thicker. Sara whispered, "Then I'm really hungry... Aunt Dovlin, Aunt Dovlin, let me serve you a meal!"

Aunt Dovlin laughed and said, "Oh, that's amazing. You can still act like a spoiled child."

The dinner was very sumptuous. Sara ate her fill and lay on the sofa and flipped through her medical book. Hank held her waist and looked at the documents in his hand. Suddenly, he said, "Sara."

"What's that?"

"William was released." Hank showed her the message on the phone and said, "Yen took all the responsibilities. William is not criminal alarm and came out at six o'clock in the afternoon."

Sara was not surprised, but said, "The trial should be held the day after tomorrow in Yen's case, right?"

"Well," Hank said lightly, "I've ordered that we should handle it impartially, and no private matters should be allowed..." Before he could finish his words, his cell phone rang. It was a string of numbers without names.

Hank picked it up directly and said in a soft voice that was rarely seen, "Why are you calling me now?"

The person on the other end of the line laughed and said, "Of course I have something good to tell you."

It was the voice of a woman, delicate and soft. It was very beautiful.

Hank thought of something. "You're back in America?"

The woman said, "... I can't hide anything from you. Master Hank, I just got off the plane. I'm at the airport. Do you have time to pick me up?"

Hank grunted in agreement. "Wait for me for a while."

Sara was stunned.

No one had ever said to Hank, "Do you have time to pick me up?"

The relationship between this woman and Hank was obviously unusual.

After hanging up the phone, Hank stood up and casually put on a windbreaker. He said to Sara, "You go to sleep first, and I'll pick up someone."

Sara should have nodded obediently at this time, but she felt very uncomfortable in her heart, as if she was angry. She bit her lip and asked Hank, "Who... who is it?"

Hank replied, "A friend." He bent down and planted a kiss on Sara's forehead. "Be good.

Sara pursed her lips and watched him leave.

She sat on the sofa alone. Hank had clearly said that he wanted to pick up a friend, but Sara didn't know why, but she couldn't care less. It was as if she was an animal meeting its natural enemy.

Aunt Lyons just came out to change the fish tank. When she saw Hank's back, she was stunned. "It's so late. Why does Master Hank go out?"

He had a friend at the airport. Let's go pick him up."

"Oh." Aunt Lyons was a little confused. "But I haven't seen any friends of Master Hank."

Sara lowered his head and did not speak.

She looked at the page in her hand which was the best for her to care about in the past, but now she couldn't read a word anymore, and her mind was full of the voice of the woman just now.

She spoke in a very intimate tone and seemed to be very familiar with Hank. It could be seen from the fact that Hank went to the airport to pick her up without saying a word, and Hank guessed that she returned to the country at once, which meant that both of them had been in contact all along...

Sara really wanted to convince herself that the two of them might just be normal friends, just like her, Alex, and George. However, she still could not control the thought of three words

It was Hank's ivory cinnabar mole in Yasmine's words. As the substitute, she was also the very excellent sister in Sara words.

Sara took a deep breath, trying not to let her imagination run wild. But in the next second, her phone lit up. It was a strange number. She was flustered and did not want to answer it. However, the phone was very haunted and rang four or five times. Sara finally couldn't bear it and answered the phone.

"Sara, why don't you answer the phone?" The voice on the other side of the phone was Yasmine. There was a hint of laughter in her voice. "I have nothing to talk to you about. I just came to tell you something..."

Sara pursed her lips and said, "Zara has returned."

Yasmine paused for a moment. "How did you know?!"

She was not familiar with Zara, and she only knew it when she saw Zara's friend circle. After seeing the dynamics, Yasmine was disgusted. Compared with hating Sara, she hated Zara more because Master Hank only doted on Sara for a while, but Zara was the only woman who could squeeze into Master Hank's world.

If it weren't for Zara's poor health, she would not have arranged a marriage with Hank after going abroad for several years. Because almost everyone in the circle knew that Hank treated Zara differently from others.

However, even if she did not like Zara, it was good that she could disgust Sara.

She did not expect Sara to know that Zara had returned to the country a long time ago..

She squinted her eyes and said coldly, "If I were you, I would leave Master Hank immediately. Zara is not a good person. Even if Master Hank favors you now, if you are in the way of Zara, he will kill you without hesitation... Miss Martin, you were not in our circle before, so you must not know that there was a son of an aristocratic family who wanted to molest Zara. But Master Hank shot him, didn't you?"

"They have not been married for so many years. Everyone is guessing that Master Hank is not in good health and he doesn't want to be a burden to Zara... But now, Zara returns home. Do you still have a chance?"

For Zara's sake, he had killed someone with a fire shot...

Sara closed her eyes and felt a dull pain in her heart. But she had already learned how to hide her weakness, so she just smiled and said, "If I don't have a chance, Miss, you must be even less. I don't know what kind of existence Miss is to Master Hank, but you see, it's me who is standing next to Master Hank now."

After that, she hung up the phone and gasped for breath, covering her heart. She had never thought that she would say something like this in front of others. She was like an imperial concubine in the ancient times, who was strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

She could be tough in front of others, but if Hank really decided to be with Zara, what should she do?

...No, isn't this what she dreamed of?! The moment she entered the Bishop family, she was thinking about how to escape. These illusions at the moment did not belong to her at all. What she wanted was to be a doctor who could save the dead and help the wounded to support her grandfather.

If Hank and Zara were together, it would be a good thing for her.

What was she sad about?
