Semua Bab Love's Masquerade: Bab 51 - Bab 60

The scene suddenly fell silent.In the boutique, several shop assistants, including the manager, were all drawn by the noise. They rushed over, attempting to ease the atmosphere.However, when they heard Ruth speaking in a honeyed voice once she got through the phone, they went silent. They all shot sympathetic glances at the previous shop assistant.The manager even silently came up to her and said worriedly, "It is indeed Mr. Colt on the other end of the line. Don't say anything later. I'll deal with it."The shop assistant was touched. At the same time, she also gained the courage to face it head-on.She shook her head. "It's alright. I can handle it."The manager frowned. "What do you mean you can handle it? She's Mr. Colt's sister. You'll lose your job if you offend her."However, the shop assistant stood firm. "Trust me. I really can handle it."Seeing as how the manager was still skeptical and worried, the shop assistant tugged on her hand and pointed to Faye. Dres

Early next morning, Faye received a call from the police station. They were requesting her to come over for questioning.When Faye was about to leave, only then did she realize that Cedric hadn't come back last night. She frowned, but decided not to question it. She then went downstairs and headed directly to the police station.It had only been a few days since Faye last saw Clint and his family. They looked worn out and haggard. But when they saw her, they immediately became energized. They sprang toward her, as if they wanted to pounce on her. "Faye, you bitch! You really got us in deep trouble. Tell me, what do you really want?""Are you trying to drive us to our deaths? I don't care where you got those fabricated pieces of evidence—they're all fake! Fake! Did you bribe the police?"Faye smiled nonchalantly as they frenzily berated her. "It seems like the police have been kind to you guys lately, allowing you to scream and shout like this. Are you still not satisfied with your

Faye had extensive experience in wilderness survival. Over the past few years abroad, she had had numerous close calls. So she was able to swiftly use her tool to free the driver's leg."Can you move?" Faye asked. She watched the man struggle to shift his legs. However, after a couple of attempts, he was drenched in sweat from the intense pain. He could barely stand, let alone assist in the rescue.Faye immediately doused him with a bottle of mineral water, and another bottle on herself. Unfortunately, her hair got singed in a few spots by the flames, emitting the smell of burnt protein.But Faye disregarded this and retrieved a pill from her pocket. She then handed it to the man."Take this. We've got one minute. Each of us takes one person. Run as far as you can."Saying so, she turned to pick up the elderly man and took off in a sprint—not even bothering to spare a glance at the man's face.The man was puzzled by her statement, considering that his condition might not

After leaving the police station, Faye made her way to the hospital to see Flora. Her mind was only at ease after confirming Flora was recovering. Before leaving, she instructed the nurse not to trust anyone and to avoid giving Flora any medication, including prescriptions from the hospital, except for what Faye provided. She also arranged for two bodyguards to stand watch at the entrance to prevent any unwanted disturbances.After taking care of these matters, she remembered the issue involving Dr. Quinn and sought out Dr. Ziegler.From Dr. Ziegler, she learned that Dr. Quinn was already under investigation, and several unethical activities had been uncovered. However, no charges had been filed yet."Ms. Brown, you should understand that Dr. Quinn has some influential connections," Dr. Ziegler explained. "The hospital has conducted a comprehensive investigation into Flora's case, but convicting him solely on this basis might prove difficult."Faye smirked. "Don't worry abo

"I..." Faye showed a nervous and fearful expression. She clutched at her wound and glanced uneasily at Hank. As expected, Faye received a warning look from him. She lowered her head and stayed silent.Hank smiled and stepped forward. "Officer, my girlfriend is a bit timid. Your sudden intrusion scared her. Plus, she hurt her shoulder because of an accident I caused. She's too frightened to speak now."Hank tried comforting Fyae by putting his arm around her shoulder, but she swiftly avoided him.She shouted anxiously, "Don't touch me!" Her eyes were filled with fear and unease, far from what one would expect from a romantic relationship.The police officer immediately noticed something was off and continued to question Faye. "Ma'am, you don't need to be scared. Just tell me honestly, are you in a romantic relationship with this man?"She hesitated and glanced at Hank again. Seeing his threatening expression, she covered her head. "I ... I can't say. He's... he's Hank Shaw. H
