Jordan looked at Theo. "Did you catch the person?"
Theo pursed my lips, and his meaning was clear.
Shannon was a little confused. "Didn't you see the person's face from the surveillance footage? Even if he wore a
face mask, it's impossible to take so long to find him."
"They swapped guys midway. It was another person when they left the elevator. The person who brought Wanda
into the morgue and the person who injected her with anesthesia aren't the speople."
Theo frowned. "Moreover, that person is familiar with the elevator and turned his back to the camera the whole
time. He only revealed his side profile for a bit when he
left the elevator.
Jordan said, "Do we have other leads?”
Theo shook his head. "We can only confirm that he’s an outsider because the hospital personnel did not

first. There are still a bunch of things at the resort waiting for the two of you to handle.”
| froze. "Has the project started?"
Jordan nodded. "It has."
Although I was curious, | did not continue to ask further.
Shannon had brought food with her. She and Jordan left after eating because they still had things to do.
Shannon had cooked a very good meal, but | did not have much of an appetite.
Theo chuckled. "Should | feed you?”
"No." | leaned on him. "When can | get discharged?"
"Maybe in a few more days."
| wished to go back to the resort to handle project matters, but Theo would surely not letgo when | was in
this condition.
"Aren't you going to the resort to do swork?" | asked.
Theo raised his eyebrows. "Do you think | can rest easy leaving you here alone?"
He was right. Even if he wanted to go, | surely would not want him to go.
| felt intensely insecure after experiencing such a horrible ordeal.
| hugged his waist. "Theo, don’t you plan to pull out of this project anymore?"
He previously said he had been considering withdrawing.
Theo sneered. "I've been obstructed twice. If | pull out now, I'll be doing what the other party wants, won't I?"
I was a little confused at first, but I soon understood what he meant.
"You're saying..." | widened my eyes." Someone tried to killbecause of the project?"
First, it was the robbery that took place in the institute. Then, it was Shannon being pushed off the base. Now,
someone tried to claim my life. Were these three incidents related?

The robbery in the institute would cause the project to cto a halt, and Shannon getting hurt would force the
project to stop. If | died, then judging from Theo's love for me, he would takeaway, never to return —let
alone finish the project.
| frowned and asked Theo, "Are these incidents directed at the Fredericks or Grants?"
Theo was in no hurry to reply. He picked up the oatmeal on the table and asked with a smile, "Should | feed
you?"
Seeing the tenderness in his eyes, | could not bring myself to refuse. "Sure."
After taking a few bites, | could not eat anymore.
| pushed away his hand that was holding the spoon and said to him, "Okay, tto answer my question."
Theo pursed his lips and stood up from the bed.
At this moment, the doctor cin to givea check.
After the check, the doctor looked at Theo and said, "Mrs. Grant has recovered quite well. She just needs to
recuperate for a few more days.”
Theo nodded. "What else do we need to take note of?" 2
