Chapter 159 Keaton didn’t even glance back as he climbed into his car, scratching his head while he dialed Benjamin. “Did Tarquin swing by to see you?” “Yeah, Lowell just called me, asked me to hustle over to the hospital. Said Ms. Thorne fainted from shock. I’m off duty today, so I’m not at the hospital, but I’m heading there now.” Keaton let out a sigh. “Alright, you get there fast. I’m on my way too. And hey, make sure she’s taken care of, alright? Keep Ms. Thorne safe, and I swear I’ll bankroll a new top–notch hospital for you.” “What? What happened?” “It’s a long story, damn it, got screwed over by a woman! Gotta go, just get to the hospital and round up your best docs. Make sure she’s okay!” After hanging up, Keaton couldn’t help but scratch his head again. Damn, done in by a dame, capsized in the gutter! This was the first time an ex had caused him such trouble, and boy, did it blow up in his face! Driving towards the hospital, Keaton made another call. “Dig up everything on Nola messing with Oriana to get at Elysia. I want the full scoop in thirty minutes!” Once Elysia was taken to the hospital, she lay in bed, eyes closed, yet screaming, “Get away from me! Don’t touch me! Go! Go! Go away- Tarquin stood by the bed, his face stormy. “Is she awake or not?” Benjamin said, “She’s not awake. This is a reaction to the trauma. She must be terrified.” Tarquin just stood there, brooding. “Please step out. I’ll do a full exam to see if she’s hurt anywhere.” Tarquin glanced at Elysia, and then, as if possessed, he said, “Get a female doctor.” Benjamin was puzzled. Tarquin, looking like he knew exactly what he was talking about, said, “She was nearly humiliated today. Seeing a man might upset her more. Have a woman check her.” With that, he turned and left. Benjamin was frozen for a few seconds but decided to follow his advice and called in two female doctors to examine Elysia. Stepping out into the hallway, Benjamin saw Tarquin at the end of the corridor, lighting up a cigarette, and asked Lowell, “What the hell happened? Keaton also called me, said to take care of Ms. Thorne no matter what.” Lowell shrugged in resignation, “Mr. Huber was played by a woman.” No matter who was behind it, or whether they had broken up or not, the fact that Oriana was his ex couldn’t be changed. It was because of him that Oriana had picked a fight with Elysia. So, one way or another, Keaton was responsible. Benjamin was still curious about what exactly had gone down when Keaton rushed in, anxious. “How is she? How’s Ms. Thorne?” “Nothing serious from the initial check, no obvious injuries. We’re still running a full exam.” Keaton breathed a sigh of relief, “No serious harm, that’s good. Where’s Tarquin?” “Over there, having a smoke.” Keaton glanced toward the smoking area and once again scratched his head, “Wish me luck.” With that, he braced himself and walked toward the smoking area. Upon reaching Tarquin, Keaton immediately pulled out his phone, presenting all the gathered info. “I can’t duck responsibility for what happened today. Rest assured, I’ve got people on it. I promise you by today the Sutton family will be history in Jindale City. They won’t be bothering you again. And look here, I’ve pieced together the whole mess. The mastermind is 11.02 Chapter 1DU Nola Turns out, when Gage was in trouble, someone really did threaten him to stay away from Elysia! They said if he dared to hassle Elysia again, next time they’d go straight for his life!
