Gritting her teeth in frustration, the woman could do nothing but prepare to break through.
“Don’t think you can beat me just because you have more people.I’m not that easy to deal with.”
Danika didn’t say anything but kept her gaze on the woman.She didn’t believe that the woman would be able to escape with so many people surrounding her.
“Is that so? Then how about my men join in too?”
Eustace’s figure emerged from the darkness.
The woman was astounded, as was Danika.
“Didn’t you say you were going to the company?”
Danika was puzzled and didn’t understand why Eustace was there.
“My men noticed someone following you these past few days, so I pretended to leave to create an opportunity for your stalker.I didn’t expect that you were also prepared.”
Indeed, he had no idea that Danika had prepared herself for such a circumstance.But even if he’d known, he would’ve still shown up because he was worried.
Eustace’s gesture warmed Danika’s heart, but she didn’t express her feelings to him then.
Instead, she looked at the woman and said, “Surrender now.You can’t escape.”
“Heh! How would you know before I’ve even tried?”
The woman sneered and charged toward Danika.
Eustace pulled Danika behind him and signaled with his eyes.
The people he brought with him rushed toward the woman in an instant.
About a dozen people besieged the woman, and she couldn’t get to Danika at all.
Of course, she wasn’t planning on killing Danika at that moment; she was finding a way to escape.She was indeed very skillful.
Under her ruthless and desperate attacks, the people Danika brought couldn’t hold their own against her.
Fortunately, Eustace brought quite a few men.
Under the combined effort of their men, they finally caught the woman.
When the dust settled, Danika walked up to her and said, “Don’t worry.I won’t kill you.”
The woman snorted in response, looking down on Danika immensely.She was simply outnumbered.
“Useless bitch!” she cursed in her heart.
Danika ignored her and looked at Eustace.
“Can you help me find a place to lock her up? I’ll need her in a few days.”
“Okay.”
Eustace nodded.
It was no problem for him.
After everything was taken care of, Eustace sent Danika back again.
This time he walked her to her door.He waited for her to enter her home and close the door before he left.
Eustace then walked back to the woman and grabbed her chin with force.
“Who sent you?”
He didn’t know of the conversation between her and Danika, so naturally, he had to ask her some questions.
Unfortunately, she was a tough nut to crack.
She only told Danika earlier because she didn’t care and thought Danika was going to die at her hands.
But now, she was annoyed and didn’t feel like saying anything.
Could She Have Failed?
The woman said nothing, but Eustace paid no attention to her.
Looking at his men, he instructed, “Take her to the dungeon and interrogate her well.Pry out everything she knows.”
He wasn’t as kind as Danika toward someone who wanted to take his life.
Naturally, he had to deal with them accordingly.
The woman was taken away, and Eustace stood in place for a long time, his heart a little heavy.
As Danika got closer to uncovering the truth, the danger around her also increased.
Eustace wasn’t sure how long he could protect her.
If she returned to the Zellwegers, would he still be of help? To be more exact, would he even qualify to help? It seemed to him now that he was still too weak.
A few days later, after Natalia returned from Bardoff City, she immediately came to look for Danika.
“Dr.Zellweger, I have contacted both Parrington Hospital and Bardoff Hospital.The two hospitals are now cooperative, and you can perform the surgery at Bardoff Hospital.”
“Good.You’re quite efficient.”
Danika couldn’t help but acknowledge that though the Cruzes were only a second-class family in Bardoff City, their influence could not be underestimated.
The Zellwegers, one of the Ten Elites, would be even more powerful.
If she really went there, she didn’t have a solid plan as to how to deal with them.
“Well, my grandfather’s life is at stake, so of course I have to get everything arranged as soon as possible,” Natalia said frankly.She had indeed asked many people for help in this matter.
Danika didn’t say anything to that.
Natalia quickly asked, “Dr.Zellweger, when will you go with me to Bardoff City to perform my grandfather’s surgery?”
“Tomorrow,” Danika replied.
“Huh?”
Natalia was surprised.
“So soon?”
Before she came over, she’d expected that Danika would agree to go sometime within a week.
As long as Danika was willing to perform the surgery within that time frame, she would be content.She didn’t expect it would be the next day.
“Is that too soon? So do you prefer for me to go at a later date?”
Danika looked at her, amused and thinking that Natalia was a little weird.
Natalia shook her head quickly.
“No, no, I just didn’t expect it to be so soon.I thought you would go in a few days.”
“Your grandfather’s condition isn’t optimistic.Since you’ve decided to have surgery, we should do it as soon as possible.The longer you wait, the worse it will be.” Natalia nodded.
“Okay, then I’ll arrange for the flight tomorrow.”
“Okay,” Danika replied and didn’t say anything else.
After Natalia left, Danika didn’t busy herself; instead, she leaned back in her chair and thought about how to get to her family’s residence in Bardoff City.
Of course, she wasn’t in a hurry to return to her family.She just wanted to take Ash to her family to confront them.
Ash was the woman from the previous night—Eustace had just told Danika her name earlier that morning.
Danika didn’t ask Eustace how he found out, nor did she care if he’d done anything to Ash.
Since Ash wanted to kill her, Danika wasn’t a saint and couldn’t possibly help her.
If she went to the Zellwegers and looked for Rowena, she would be throwing herself into the snake pit.
The person she needed to approach was her father.
“Does my father know what his wife is up to? Oh well, it’s pointless to think about that now,” Danika thought.
She started to study Natalia’s grandfather’s medical case again.
Although the chances of a successful surgery were slim, failure was not an option for Danika.She had to succeed.
In Bardoff City, at Zellweger Castle, Rowena anxiously awaited Ash’s confirmation that she’d accomplished what she was told to do.However, she heard nothing from her.
“Could she have failed? How is that possible?” Rowena pondered.
