Abroad, in a hospital
Lucas Bell had an IV in his hand, and his other hand, crushed, had been x-rayed, showing an undeniable fracture. The surgery was scheduled for tomorrow.
"Grandpa, that group went off to a party. Most of them are underage and not very tight-lipped. I asked around and found out some things," Zac Cruz whispered.
William Hale's face darkened.
He continued, "Someone found them and gave them a million US dollars to break Lucas Bell's hand."
"They didn't know the person who hired them."
"The payment account was foreign, under an old woman's name—probably a fake account."
William nodded.
"It's unlikely to be a creditor of the Bell Family. Lucas hasn't made enemies abroad..." Zac analyzed.
No smoking was allowed in the hospital. The cigarette pack in his hand was already crumpled by William, who remained silent, his gaze dark and dangerous like a wolf lurking in the darkness.
