Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 40

Chapter 40: Hospital Visit
That sounds quite reasonable.

Mrs. Jones seemed to convince herself this way and then focused her attention on other things, no longer caring about what Samuel and Amelia.

…

<Hospital>

This is a private hospital belonged to Carson Family.

When the ambulances came, there were ambulances from several hospital. Riya purposely made her way to this ambulance because she didn’t know if Taylor Family will play trick in the hospital.

To be in the safe side, she picked the hospital that belonged to her friend.

At the very least, she knew that it wouldn’t be so easy to play tricks in this hospital.

Bang!

“Riya! Are you alright?” Amelia rushed inside after she came.

Riya was speechless when she saw Amelia’s action. “I’m perfectly fine. Don’t keep on smashing door when entering.”

“It’s fine, my brother will pay for the damage fee if there’s any.”

Riya: “…” I forgot how rich you are.

“More importantly, are you alright?”

“Yeah, I avoided the truck, so I only twist my ankle,” Riya replied.

“It’s good.” Amelia heaved a sigh of relief. “I didn’t mean that it’s good for you to be injured, but it’s good that your injury is not heavy.”

Riya looked at Amelia helplessly.

Well, compared to her, many people were heavily injured. The two people who wanted to kidnap her both have broken bones. At first, Riya wanted to report them, but there was no evidences that they wanted to kidnap her.

They can easily say that they passed by and got involved in the accident.

After all, their injuries were all because of her magic and not because she beat them up. With her thin arms, Riya was highly doubtful that she could even beat them up.

In the end, Riya didn’t report them.

Anyway, if the cause of the accident was investigated, it might also lead to the Taylor Family. Because she had just clashed agains them in the morning and they made a move very quickly, so they were the most suspicious.

But at the same time, Riya had the feelings that those people would definitely figure out a method to erase their tracks.

The Taylor Family was not that easy to deal with.

This made Riya a bit annoyed.

“How’s the driver?” Riya asked.

“The driver had passed away.” Amelia frowned. “And from the blood test and the smell, they said it’s an accident caused by drinking.”

Accident caused by drinking…

If not because Riya found those two people who wanted to kidnap her, she might believe it. After all, there were indeed these types of cases.

But at the same time, Riya also knew that it was wrong.

This case was not an ordinary case.

“Do you suspect something?” Amelia noticed RIya’s face was not good.

“I just have a clash with Mr. Taylor and the others this morning. Do you think that this will be an ordinary case?” RIya asked. “That truck is clearly heading towards me.”

When Amelia heard this, she felt her blood turned cold.

What rich and influential people could do in order to fulfill their goal was very clear for Amelia. Even though she herself disdained those things, but it didn’t mean that others wouldn’t do it.

“Do you need a bodyguard?” Amelie asked.

Riya passed a look at Amelia. “Do you really think it’s reasonable for me to hire a bodyguard? Also, I don’t think I would like to have someone following me all the time.”

For Amelia, a bodyguard might be a necessity. After all, the eldest miss of the Jones Family was basically a big target for others.

But for Riya who was used to live on her own, it was a different matter.

She didn’t want to have anyone followed her when she did something and possibly watch over her every action. It would only make her feel uncomfortable.

“But it’s going to be dangerous for you to live by yourself.” Amelia frowned.

Riya shook her head. “Don’t worry, I’m sure they’ll tone down a bit after this incident.”

And if Riya had to be honest, she was actually not afraid of the Taylor Family in the slightest bit. Their action of blocking the surveillance camera actually worked in her favor.

After all her magic was not exactly something that could be used in front of many people.

So with them blocking the surveillance, Riya simply used her methods to deal with them at the fastest speed possible with her magic.

Honestly, if not because she was afraid of people’s prying eyes, she would not even be hospitalized either.

“I’ll try to ask my family to investigate it.” Amelia frowned.

Riya looked at Amelia helplessly and nodded. “Alright, but please be careful.”

“I will.”

Outside the ward’s room, Samuel stood there and his eyes gleamed slightly. He heard the conversation of the two girls inside but he didn’t come inside to interrupt them.
