A Mysterious Man

Chapter 218 Having Learned Something

Although R City is not as good as the one Sunny originally lived, it is not bad.

The cost of living is quite high here. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

So is the housing price, which is similar to the original city. If she rent an apartment alone, it may cost

her one or two thousand RMB a month even if it has but one bedroom.

Besides, she is less unlikely to work in the following days because she is pregnant now. Considering all

these, she believes it is better to share an apartment with Annie than to rent one alone.

In addition, if they live together, Annie can take care of her in situations like when she is about to give

birth to baby.

Finally, Sunny really likes this girl.

Considering all these, Sunny happily decides to share an apartment with Annie in the future.

After eating something, Sunny has several routine checks in the company of Annie. After confirming

that both Sunny and the baby are healthy, they leave the hospital.

Since they are all newcomers who haven't found a suitable apartment, they have to live in a hotel first.

"Welcome, show me your ID card please." the receptionist looks at them smilingly and asks.

Hearing this, Annie takes out wallet from her bag and asks, "Do you want to just one ID card or both

ones?"

"Do you need one room or two?" she asks gently.

Hearing this, Annie turns her head to look at Sunny. Sunny nods with a smile and says, "It up to you.

Both will be fine with me. "

It doesn't matter to Sunny whether to live in a single room or double room.

She is not the kind of person who cares about such matters, so it is acceptable for her whether they will

live in a room or not.

If Annie is unwilling to live in a room with her, Sunny can live in a room alone. If Annie can accept it,

she will absolutely share a room with Annie.

After all, she can save one or two hundred RMB in this way.

Anyway, every pence matters for Sunny at this moment.

"Then we'd like to have a double room." Annie hands an ID card to the receptionist and says, "We

should show you just one ID card, right?"

The receptionist nods and then asks, "Yes, a standard double room, right?"

Sunny is relieved without reasons at hearing that they just need to show an ID card.

Knowing that Butler has helped her to leave a note enough to end her relationship with Kevin, but she

is still afraid of being found by the Quinn family.

It seems that Annie is aware of something. She turns her head and looks at Sunny with doubts in her

eyes, but she finally asks about nothing.

Anyway, she is not familiar with Sunny now and it would be really rude to ask personal questions.

If she were Sunny, she wouldn't like someone unfamiliar to inquire about private questions.

"Your room is 0419." the receptionist passes the room card to Annie and says, "Go along this way and

then turn left. Then you will find the lift. Enjoy your stay."

Annie and Sunny go to their room with the room card.

After unpacking everything she needs, Sunny goes to open the window which is on the wall near a bed,

finding that it is getting dark already. Then she asks Annie, "Annie, are you going to find a job?"

"Of course." Annie nods, "I have contacted a company before. Now, I am here for an interview. "

Hearing this, Sunny can't help looking at Annie with envy. Considering that she still has no clue for

finding a job, Sunny is sad.

"What kind of job are you going to look for?" Annie inquires while making the bed.

"Doctor or something." Sunny thinks about it for a while and answers honestly.

She took those certificates with her when she left.

Although those certificates are heavy, Sunny still finds it better to take them with her. After all, she has

to find a job with them.

Annie is a little surprised at this answer, "Sunny, were you a medical student before?"

Sunny thinks it over and then shakes her head, "Not really, I just learned something from someone

earlier."

Knowing that Sunny is just being modest, Annie just nods with smile, "Okay, I will keep an eye on

relative information for you."

It's past seven in the evening when they all have got their matters done.

……

At the same time in the hospital Kevin is in a coma.

"Kelly, I got the antidote!"

Do as what Butler has told him, Ellison easily finds the antidote from her house. Before, he had always

failed to find it.

She specially made a secret compartment in her dressing table and hid the antidote there.

Ellison has to admire her intelligence. It never occurred to him that she could be so scrupulous.

Kelly has just fallen asleep when she gets the news, so she immediately gets up and hurries to the

hospital Kevin in.

After getting the antidote, Ellison calls Kelly immediately and then drives to hospital with Simon.

"Troy!" one hour has passed when he stands at the door of Troy's laboratory breathlessly.

There are just 22 hours left to save Kevin's life.

Seeing Ellison, Troy stops his work at once, takes off medical gloves and hurries out.

"How's it going?" Troy asks while taking off his cleanroom suit, "Did Butler give you the antidote?"

Ellison hands a packet of powder to Troy, "I found this in a secret compartment in her dressing table in

her home."

Troy takes the powder. After hearing Ellison's explanation, Troy feels overwhelmingly unhappy.

"Shit! How sly the woman is!" Troy is astonished, "Fuck, she hid the antidote in the secret compartment

in the dressing table!"

Does it mean that she specially made a secret compartment in the dressing table to hide the antidote?

Considering that Butler even poisoned Kevin, it would be unsurprising that she made a secret

compartment in the dressing table to hide the antidote.

"Okay," Troy holds the antidote carefully while talking, "You can go to ICU to take care of Kevin. I will

test the powder. I should be able to get the result two hours later, but I will try to be as quicker as

possible."

It is about Kevin's life. Troy used to be slovenly, but now becomes serious.

However, as a matter of fact, since Kevin is poisoned, Troy has been working in the hospital laboratory

basically every day, developing antidote with top experts invited by the Quinn family.

However, the poison is really too weird, with very complicated types of ingredients. Therefore, it is just

impossible to develop an antidote in a short time.

Hearing him say so, Ellison nods, "Thanks a lot. We must ask Maud to dine together when we are

free."

Hearing this, Troy can't help smiling. He pats Kevin's shoulder, "Well, don't care about this. Nothing is

better than Kevin getting better soon."

Only Kevin getting well soon is the best compensation for the great effort he made these days.

Of course, Ellison understands his meaning. He is always being serious, but smiles a little at this

moment, "You are right."

Considering that his younger brother will get well soon, Ellison is in much better mood.

"Well, I have to go to work now. You just go to take care of Kevin." Having said this, Troy is about to

leave. But it seems that he remembers something. Therefore, he turns around and says, "I think there

is something more about Sunny. Don't blame her too much."

To some extent, Sunny can be considered to be his student. As a teacher, he must put in a good word

for her.

Ellison nods, but looks unpleasant.

Troy frowns with doubts, "Did you find out something about Sunny?" Ellison looks angry. Seeing this,

he wonders if there isn't any hidden facts about Sunny as he guesses.

Hearing this, Ellison shakes his head, "It is kind of complicated. I will talk to you about it after you get

you things done."

He can't explain the matter about Sunny clearly in a few words. Explaining to Troy now can only cause

trouble and delay time.

Troy surely knows it, " OK, I'm going now."

After that, he leaves right away.

Seeing Ellison's unpleasant expression, he comes to understand that the affair of Sunny must be

troublesome. Otherwise Ellison will not have an expression like that. Anyway, Ellison was always calm

in the past.

He understands that this matter can't be explained clearly in a few words, so he wisely chooses to stop

asking. He will figure out the ingredients of the powder as soon as possible, rather than delay his work.

The longer they delay, the less hope of survival Kevin has.

He can't risk. He dares not risk either.

Ellison directly goes to ICU that Kevin lives in after leaving the laboratory.

Kevin is just poisoned, so he doesn't need to change into cleanroom suit before coming in.

The housemaid, who is dozing off by the bed, raises her head immediately and warily looks at the

visitor at hearing the noise.

She is much relieved to find that the visitor is Ellison, "Mr. Ellison, you're here."

In order to prevent the share price from dropping, the fact that Kevin is poisoned is not made public.

The housemaid has been staying by Kevin's side for the past few hours, fearing that someone might

get to know the news, release it on purpose and then let a reporter come here.

Luckily, no one has told others about it and nobody come here secretly in the past few hours.

Ellison nods, "Yeah, just sit down."

While talking, he sits on the chair beside Kevin's sickbed. Looking at Kevin who is lying on the sickbed

with an oxygen mask, he is very sad.

Seeing this, the housemaid immediately goes to fill a glass with water and offers it to Ellison. "Mr.

Ellison, I will go out and have a look. Please call me when you are about to leave. "

Seeing Ellison sitting there silently, the housemaid leaves the room after handing the glass to Ellison,

leaving the space for them.

Ellison says nothing to stop this.
