Having seen through Katie, the firm trust that Mitchel previously had in her was now shattered. Now, every word that came out of her mouth sounded like lies to him.
If Katie’s claim turned out to be true, then the whole situation could easily be diffused. After all, Katie’s father was a long-time supporter of his faction. Mitchel would give the Glyn family ample time to take care of the crises at hand.
But, if Katie had lied to him, he wouldn’t be merciful in the slightest. He would unleash his full wrath upon her.
Before long, Matteo was able to obtain Katie’s father’s test report.
According to the report, Katie’s father had developed complications that led to him experiencing a shock which could lead him to become critically ill.
“I have also combed through every other document in the hospital that has anything to do with Mr. Glyn, and from the look of things, he is quite in a serious condition. And all the time he has been at the ICU, Miss Glyn has been by his side,” Matteo reported.
Mitchel nodded and glanced at the report. It was an authentic one, which meant there was no foul play anywhere.
Mitchel then looked at Matteo and instructed, “Contact the best cardiovascular specialist in the country and see to it that they have a consultant with Mr. Glyn.”
“Will do,” Matteo replied.
Just as Matteo was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something else needed to report to Mitchel. Turning around, he said, “By the way, Mr. Dixon, a fire occurred down at Velvet Alley, killing a woman. The police have released an identification notice based on her physical characteristics. And from the way the victim was described, I think she might be Miss Murray. However, I have not yet confirmed if it’s her.”
Mitchel had dumped Lauren into the Velvet Alley to teach the latter a lesson.

In line with Mitchel’s orders, Matteo didn’t seize Lauren’s phone.
That gave Lauren the freedom to contact the police if she didn’t want to be harmed. But then, if she contacted the police, she would be bought to book for drugging others. She’d end up in jail.
Mitchel had given Lauren two options. Lauren preferred being tortured in Velvet Alley to being in jail.
Matteo felt no pity for Lauren whatsoever. She had brought a painful ending down upon herself.
Mitchel lowered his gaze slightly and simply said, “Go to her residence, gather her personal belongings, and see to it that you identify her.”

At that moment, the image of Lauren’s last look, which had been resentful, popped into Mitchel’s mind. He mustn’t let his guard down until the victim’s DNA had been confirmed to be Lauren’s.
Not that Mitchel was afraid for his safety. If he knew anything about Lauren, it was that instead of targeting him, she might go after Raegan instead.
Meanwhile, at the door of the ICU.
Katie stared at the phone in her hand as she squeezed it out of frustration. How could Mitchel be so cold and ruthless? Didn’t he have an iota of humanity in him?
Katie closed her eyes for a moment and placed a hand on her forehead.
There wasn’t much time left for her.
At that moment, Abel, Katie’s bodyguard, appeared.
Seeing him, Katie asked, “Has the medicine been taken care of?”
