Chapter 89 - 89
Chapter 89: Chapter 89
Samuel Morgan was stunned.
By the time he came back to his senses, he hurriedly walked up to Lewis Horton: “Mr. Horton, are you planning to… break in?”
Lewis Horton did not speak, but he walked straight from the front hall to the guardroom behind, answering with his actions.
Samuel Morgan: “You’re too bold! Isn’t this against the rules?”
Lewis Horton kept walking without stopping and asked coldly, “What else? Can your boss wait until tomorrow?”
“Of course not!”
...
Samuel Morgan followed closely: “The boss’s health can’t make it through the night. There was once when iron wasn’t administered in time, and the boss went into shock and was nearly beyond rescue…”
As he said this, he became frantic and blurted out in anger: “The boss’s disease is indeed strange. No one would believe it; they must think we’re deceiving them. We can’t wait any longer! For the boss, I’m all in!”
While he was muttering to himself, Lewis Horton had already rushed toward the direction of the guardroom.
The police officer at the guardroom blocked the entrance: “This is a prison; no unauthorized persons allowed! Leave immediately.”
Lewis Horton simply ignored him and barged inside.
Captain Lincoln, who had felt that something was amiss at the door, followed them in and immediately aimed his gun at Lewis Horton when he saw the situation: “Mr. Horton, stop right there, or I’ll shoot!”
Lewis Horton turned back to look at him, his expression calm.

Samuel Morgan trembled with fear, looking at the dark maw of the gun barrel, his legs shaking.
This is terrifying!
Seeing the two men halt, Captain Lincoln breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew of Lewis Horton’s identity, the man in charge of the Horton Family, not someone who could be easily detained. He said directly, “Mr. Horton, why have you come here?”
Samuel Morgan was about to say it was for Keira Olsen when Lewis Horton stopped him: “I wanted to use the restroom and somehow ended up here.”
Samuel Morgan: ?
He stared hard at Lewis Horton, feeling a sudden chill at the bottom of his heart.
Indeed, his boss’s marriage was utterly out of the blue; at gunpoint, it would be natural for Lewis Horton not to want to take risks.
But he couldn’t leave his boss unattended.
Thus, as Lewis Horton turned to walk back, he stood still in his place.
Captain Lincoln frowned at him: “Mr. Morgan? You’re not following along?”
Samuel Morgan was terrified, taking a deep breath, “I don’t…”
Before he could finish the word ‘go’, sudden chaos erupted!
Lewis Horton, who had walked up to Captain Lincoln’s side, suddenly made his move. He rapidly approached Captain Lincoln, deftly grasping his trigger point, and Captain Lincoln’s controlled hand went limp, the gun slipping into Lewis Horton’s hand.
Captain Lincoln wanted to counter and retrieve it, but in the next moment, he suddenly felt a cold presence on his forehead.
Lewis Horton aimed the gun at him.
Captain Lincoln: !!
He was completely dumbfounded!
He certainly wouldn’t make such a mistake when facing violent criminals, but Lewis Horton and Samuel Morgan were well-known business leaders from Oceanion, the kind always accompanied by bodyguards.
He could never have imagined that Lewis Horton would attack a police officer!
Samuel Morgan was also stunned, dumbfounded looking at Lewis Horton.
He had just decided to go all out, ready to lie on the ground and refuse to leave if necessary, at least to make these people give his boss a blood test!
But he never expected that Mr. Horton would resort to such measures!
This is illegal!
“Mr. Horton, if you put down the handgun now, I won’t hold you accountable,” Captain Lincoln said, raising his hands, the seasoned veteran not showing any panic at this moment.
Lewis Horton’s voice was low: “I apologize, but I’m desperate to save someone.”
Without waiting for Captain Lincoln to speak, he looked straight ahead: “Step aside!”
The few people at the entrance of the guardroom dared not block his way any longer, hastily making room.
Lewis Horton then entered, holding Captain Lincoln hostage.
Samuel Morgan dumbly followed behind him.
He was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, forced aboard the thief’s ship!
If he said now that he wasn’t an accomplice, these cops would definitely not believe him!
At that moment, Keira Olsen still lay on her simple, thin bed. As two officers came in, wanting to take her and Poppy Hill to the solitary confinement room, she looked at Holly Sims and explained again, “I really have anemia.”
She indeed looked pale.
Holly Sims’s heart gave rise to hesitation again…
At this moment, Poppy Hill simply lay down on the ground: “Me too, oh my, I’m feeling dizzy, I’m about to die, save me!”
“…”
Holly Sims truly didn’t know what was real and what was fake anymore!
Poppy Hill’s acting was very convincing.
And Kiera Olsen didn’t seem to be acting…
Just as she hesitated, footsteps and exclamations from other officers came from outside the door!
Holly Sims immediately turned around with caution and saw Lewis Horton coming in, holding Captain Lincoln hostage.
He quickly spotted Kiera Olsen’s cell, his gaze passing through the iron bars and directly landing on Kiera Olsen!
The woman was as pale as paper, lying weakly on the bed, seemingly without the strength to even move her fingers…
Lewis Horton’s pupils contracted.
In his mind were all the images of her in the past, always standing tall no matter the situation…
Such a woman would never bow down.
Yet now, she was so weak she couldn’t even sit up!
A slight pang in his heart, he angrily said, “This is torture of a suspect! I will definitely pursue this matter!”
Holly Sims said, “We didn’t do anything, it was them fighting each other, everything we have done is according to the regulations!”
Samuel Morgan, following behind Lewis Horton, saw Kiera Olsen’s frail appearance, his eyes reddening: “Boss, we’re here to rescue you!”
He glared at Holly Sims: “My boss is about to die, and you still want to punish her? Are you even human?”
Captain Lincoln scoffed: “I really haven’t heard of a woman dying because of her period! Even if you’re faking illness, at least choose a different disease!”
Holly Sims took a deep breath and felt worried for them; she looked directly at Kiera Olsen: “Kiera Olsen, if you really didn’t kill the person, escaping is useless! If you are innocent, we will clear your name! Even if you don’t trust yourself, you should at least trust these police officers! Why cause so much trouble?”
She spoke earnestly, “I advise Mr. Horton to let go, I will plea for leniency on your behalf, Captain Lincoln won’t hold you accountable, but if you really jailbreak, the consequences are unimaginable! Kiera Olsen, stop faking illness!”
Kiera Olsen gave a bitter smile: “Holly Sims, you keep saying I don’t trust you, but do you trust me?”
Holly Sims was stunned.
Kiera Olsen said: “You don’t.”
But Holly Sims’s eyes reddened: “Why wouldn’t I trust you? It’s because you’ve deceived me time and time again! You did years ago, and you did this time too! Haven’t I been tricked by you enough?”
Kiera Olsen didn’t say anything more.
Lewis Horton, still holding Captain Lincoln hostage, entered the medical room, “Can you walk? We need to leave.”
“Yes.”
Kiera Olsen tried to stand up from the bed, trembling, but found that she simply didn’t have the strength to do so.
Lewis Horton immediately looked at Samuel Morgan: “Come here.”
Samuel Morgan approached him.
“Can you shoot?”
“…Yes.”
The gun still pointed, Lewis Horton handed it to Samuel Morgan, who then took over holding Captain Lincoln hostage.
Samuel Morgan: ???
While he was puzzled, he saw Lewis Horton stride over to the bed, suddenly bend down, and directly pick up Kiera Olsen!!
Then, he turned and left without hesitation.
Samuel Morgan, dragging Captain Lincoln, followed closely behind.
Holly Sims and the rest of the officers immediately followed them.
A procession of people made their way to the hospital, causing a sensation.
Kiera Olsen by now had fainted, and the doctor took her blood for an urgent test.
Holly Sims followed the doctor closely, and told the rest, “I’ll keep a close watch the whole time, to prevent them from bribing the doctor to tamper with the blood report!”
With so many police surrounding the hospital, the doctors were all nervous.
As a result, the urgent blood report was out in ten minutes.
Holly Sims snatched it immediately and looked at the numbers on it.
What do you think?
