As Sophia finished speaking, she saw a sharp change in Robert's gaze, becoming fi erce in an instant.

" Zabel Group…" Robert uttered those two words through clenched teeth.

" Zabel Group?" Sophia was stunned for a moment." You mean that all of this was done by Zabel Group?" Robert didn't continue the topic further, and instead asked," How is your brother doing?"

"I don't know." Sophia shook her head." They said that he needs to undergo surgery, and there are no available flights to our hometown tonight. I' ll have to catch a flight back tomorrow."

" Let's get prepared, we' re going to see him now." Robert t hrew away his cigarette and walked towards the hospital entrance." Hurry up and follow me, we' re going to the airport." Robert drove Sophia straight to the airport. An hour later, the private plane took off and headed straight to Sophia's hometown.

" Simon is fine. He just has a broken arm, and he just needs to rest for a while to recover." Sitting on the plane, Robert said this sentence, reassuring himself and comforting Sophia at the same time. Sophia, who was in a panic, did feel somewhat relieved. After a busy day, despite being exhausted, Sophia couldn't find any trace of sleepiness. At 11 PM, they arrived at their destination and rushed to the hospital. It was Johnny's college housemate who called Sophia. Being a young freshman, he was quite shy and would often blush. He felt a bit embarrassed to talk when he saw Sophia. At this moment, Johnny was already lying on the hospital bed, both legs in casts and suspended in the air. Sophia looked at the medical report with tears streaming down her face. The patient suffered comminuted fractures of both legs! One could imagine the tremendous impact that caused such injuries.

" Soph..." Johnny, who was lying on the hospital bed, burst into tears when seeing Sophia's appearance.

" Does it hurt?" Sophia squatted beside the hospital bed, touching Johnny's face.

" It doesn't hurt," Johnny said, and the next second he groaned due to the pain. His legs had been fitted with steel plates, and the effects of the anesthetic had passed. The pain was so intense that even speaking became difficult for him. Sophia could also see that her brother was trying to endure it, and her tears constantly streamed down her face. Robert pushed open the door of the ward and called Sophia out."I' ve transferred him to the intensive care unit, let him rest and recover. Although he has a comminuted fracture, fortunately, there aren't too many bone fragments. With proper care, he can fully recover."

" Mr. Zabinski, thank you." Sophia's eyes were red. Robert patted Sophia's shoulder."I' ll return tomorrow morning. You stay here with your brother these days. Once the situation stabilizes, you can go back."

" No," Sophia shook her head and said." If this matter has anything to do with Zabel Group, we can't let them get away with it so comfortably. Zabel Group once again proposed selling shares for financing yesterday. I will have another discussion with them again as a representative of Zupiter Finance. It's a critical period now." Robert glanced at Sophia and didn't say anything more. Early the next morning, the wear y Sophia prepared breakfast for Johnny. Robert also had dark circles under his eyes. Neither of them had rested throughout the night. The hospital was very quiet early in the morning, but suddenly there was a burst of common.

" Hurry up, Damn it! Sign the document and keep your eyes wide open next time you walk!" There was a burst of grumbling and cursing voices outside the ward.

" College students nowadays have abnormal minds. Otherwise, they wouldn't have just damaged my Mercedes- Benz. If not for the broken legs in the accident, once you' re out of the hospital, I' ll break your legs myself!" A voice rang out as the door to the ward was forcefully pushed open. A middle- aged man wearing a large gold chain strode in. Upon entering the ward, his gaze immediately fell on Sophia, who was squatting by the bed, and greed filled his eyes.
