Not A Small-Town Girl

Chapter 96

"Ding, ding, ding." At Mithland Hospital, Danielle saw that the caller was Denny and quickly answered it.

Denny’s tone was filled with unconcealable disbelief as he said, "Miss Darling, the people we sent to tail after Hugh have been spotted. If Aiden and I hadn’t shown up in time, they would have been dealt with by Hugh.

"I always thought Hugh was a mild-mannered scholar. Unexpectedly, he’s so skilled. He didn’t give himself away at the border at all, hiding his skills quite well."

Danielle softened her tone and asked softly, "How are they?"

"They’ve been sent to the hospital. The injuries aren’t too serious, just some knife wounds. They’ll recover after resting for a while. Aiden and I have been exposed. Hugh now knows it’s you who sent people to tail after him. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for us to find the lab."

Denny felt a bit of self-reproach. A few days ago, he had assured Danielle that he wouldn’t be spotted, yet they had been caught red-handed in no time.

Within a day, the two groups of people Danielle sent out were injured. After pondering for a while, she slowly said, "Stop tailing after him. Come back once you all have recovered from your injuries. But you guys have to be careful.

"He’s already on his guard, so he won’t be going to the lab in the near future. Take good care of your injuries for now."

"Got it, Miss Darling," Denny said.

"Mm."

After hanging up, Danielle took out her phone and sent a message.

[Check Hugh’s information and send it to me.]

The recipient replied: [Okay.] Taylor was a little worried when he heard that someone was injured, so he asked, "Miss Darling, what happened?"

"The people I sent to find Hugh were spotted and got injured," Danielle said slowly as she sent a message on her phone.

"Miss Darling, everything’s fine here. You don’t have to stay here with me. Go back and rest."

"Okay, I’ve arranged for a caregiver to look after you."

Then, Danielle and David turned around and walked out of the ward.

Inside the Maybach, Danielle noticed that the car was not heading toward the manor, so she asked, "Where are we going?"

"I’ll take you somewhere nice," David said dotingly.

"You’ve learned to keep people in suspense."
