Chapter 1065 Big Test
After Wendy had breakfast, Colton and Nicole brought her to a medical research center. Her blood wasdrawn, and she had to do various physical checks until 4.00PM.
Wendy stayed rooted to the spot with her head hung low. When she caught sight of the austereexpression on Colton's face, she carefully tugged on Nicole's sleeve and asked quietly, "Nicole, isColton angry?"
Nicole noticed her meek demeanor. So, she ran her fingers through Wendy's hair gently and comfortedher, "It's alright. Colton is just furious at the people who kidnapped you."
Wendy looked down guiltily and grabbed the hem of her shirt. Her lips were pursed into a tight line asshe mumbled, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on going out, this wouldn't have happened."
"Colton! What's going on? I heard the doctor say that Wendy's here for a body checkup." Beryl camedashing in. It was obvious he had run all the way here as he was panting while sweat dripped off hisforehead.
However, he immediately shut up when he saw that Wendy was there and forced himself to swallowany other questions from escaping his lips.
"It's alright. We'll just wait for the results tomorrow morning. Nicole, why don't you take Wendy home fornow? I've got some things to discuss with Beryl." Colton instructed calmly. It was apparent he wassuppressing his emotions.
Nicole nodded in understanding and held Wendy's hand. "Let's go, Wendy. It's alright."
After both girls left, Beryl took a big step forward and gripped Colton's arm before asking, "What's this?You even did a blood test. Did that punk, Jerry, inject drugs into Wendy?" his voice trembled as hethought of that.
He had worked in the intelligence industry for many years and came across several drug addicts. Somehad only gotten into such a habit out of curiosity, some were purely reckless with their lives, and someaccidentally came into contact with it. It didn't matter how they started; their lives would almost alwaysundoubtedly end in ruins in the end.
Even though the Gardner Family was wealthy, and Wendy wouldn't become bankrupt if she picked upsuch a habit, it would still take a toll on her body. The drugs will slowly cause her body to becomeweaker both physically and mentally.
"Nicole found a puncture wound in Wendy's arm, but Wendy said it was just from an empty needle. I'mworried that she might have contracted something by accident. So, we decided to do a checkup just incase," Colton explained gloomily.
If Jerry did indeed inject something into Wendy… His death sentence would only arrive sooner ratherthan later.
"F*ck!" Beryl couldn't help but curse as he punched the wall with a loud thud. His brows furrowed tightlyas he growled, "That f*cker! Isn't he afraid that I will blow up his base!"
Colton raised a brow at Beryl's agitated state and asked, "Wendy's my sister. Why are you so workedup?"
Beryl noticed that he had lost his composure and hastily restrained his expression before stammering,
"N-No…Your sister is my sister."
He looked at him with an amused expression and teased, "Do you think that I'm so easily fooled?"
Beryl looked at those dark eyes and suddenly felt exposed. It was as if Colton had seen through him.
After he weighed his options, he eventually admitted with a nod, "Yes. I like Wendy. I've liked her sincewe were kids. But I haven't done a thing to her, so you can't touch me."
Beryl was the youngest among them at the age of 23. So, Wendy and Beryl always had a goodrelationship. Therefore, he would always visit the Gardner Residence to visit her.
He was different from Dominic and Julian who worked in the shadows. He had a fairly clean record withalmost no enemies.
