Chapter 527 Let Him Go (1/2)

Zed unclenched his fist, causing the dagger to drop on the floor. His body relaxed and all the tension started to fade away. He then faced Jean and gave her a reassuring smile. ”I'm fine, Jean. Really. Don't worry about it.”

Jean looked at Zed's hand and to his face. She couldn't believe how Zed could still be smiling in this condition. ”How can I not worry?” She almost cried as she saw his entire palm was dripping and covered with fresh blood. She hurriedly held him and said in haste, ”Come on, Zed. Let me take you to the hospital.”

Jean turned around as she held Zed's hand to lead him out but Zed kept his stance. Jean then turned to Zed with a questioning and worried look. Zed just looked at her and sighed helplessly. ”I'm serious, Jean. Don't worry. Let's just wait for a couple of hours or until the sun rises. We can head to the hospital by then.”

Jean frowned and crossed her arms. ”No! We can't wait. The wound will get infected!” She insisted.

Zed felt helpless at Jean's obstinacy, so he shouted, ”Laurence!”

A man quickly came running towards them with a medical box on his right hand.

Jean's eyes widened at this man's surprise appearance. Laurence Bai was a fair-skinned and handsome young man. He was as tall as Zed, but his attitude and respect for Zed made him slump lower than him. However, his professional look never faltered and politely answered to his boss's call. ”You called, Mr. Zed...”

His words were interrupted as soon as he noticed the blood dripping on Zed's hand. After that, he didn't continue his sentence anymore and rushed towards Zed, sterilizing and wrapping the wound.

Laurence almost finished cleaning up the wound, but Jean was still taken aback by the situation at hand.

She remembered how Zed talked on the phone previously to make some arrangements. She couldn't understand exactly what those were for she really didn't want to pry and let Zed know that she didn't trust him to handle the matters.

Because of that, Jean expected that at least someone would show up and help Zed in confronting Calvin.

Then again, she found out earlier that Calvin was not Zed's rival. He couldn't seem to stoop on the same level as Zed, so the thought of Zed bringing some aid got lost from her thoughts.

'Who are these people around Zed that I am not aware about?

Why did Zed bring along a doctor?'

She thought, still surprised at Laurence's appearance.
