The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor -
Chapter 336
Both Fiona and Andrew heaved an internal sigh of relief when they heard their daughter was not kidnapped.
Still, they were furious, knowing that they could not escape the inevitable.
It was all Fane's fault. Never mind that he did not like Sharon; he actually used crotons to swindle her and told her it was some slimming medicine. The poor girl was suffering from diarrhea, still. "I'll take my leave now, Sir."
Luca gave a fist-and-palm salute before he swiftly left the scene. He knew Fane was a bodyguard and surmised he was a skilled fighter, so he went around replaceing other good fighters to recruit. Only then did he leave for the Drake family's place of residence.
Joan internally sighed.
She had pretty much anticipated everything Fiona and the others had done.
However, she did not stand up for the sake of her son. She knew it was useless, even if she explained everything on his behalf.
Besides, she had the utmost faith that her son would not be so stupid as to feed Sharon crotons. Her son was not someone like that; he would not prank
someone even if he did not like them.
"Oh, much better!"
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Sharon finally emerged from the toilet, cold sweat rolling down her forehead.
"Dear, how are you? Are you okay?"
Her parents immediately asked when they saw her come out, worry etched onto their expressions.
"I'm fine. I'm in good spirits, actually. I just sh*t a lot!"
Sharon flashed an awkward smile. She then noticed the bodyguards before her, as well as Fiona and the others. "Mom, Dad, who are they?"
"Oh, they're the parents-in-law of that punk, Fane Woods. I just took them here since they're his family. Luca is now looking for him. Unfortunately, that punk is working as a bodyguard for the Drake family, so
it's wise for us to not apprehend him right away. I told Luca and his other comrades to wait at the entrance. They'll catch him once he gets off from work!"
"That Fane actually dared to feed you crotons, giving you a stomachache," the head of the George family spoke. "Hmph. I'll definitely teach him a lesson once we get him!"
Sharon immediately saw red. "Mom, Dad, what are you two going on about?" she barked immediately. "Fane only gave me slimming pills. I believe him. He told me that I'll be able to lose 15 kilos within a day!"
After she said that, she turned toward the bodyguards. "Just release them already and see them off," she ordered. "Also, tell Luca to come back. Fane is a doctor. He's probably a lot better than those western doctors in hospitals."
The bodyguards looked at their masters, not moving a single inch.
When Fiona and the others heard this, confusion crossed their expressions.
Fane? A doctor? They would never believe that in a million years.
Sure, Fane had some knowledge on how to treat bones after being on the battlefield for so many years as a military man, and he managed to heal Andrew's leg. Nonetheless, that did not mean he was qualified to help Sharon lose weight.
Furthermore, healing a leg and losing weight were two completely different issues.
"That's right! Fane definitely gave slimming pills. Mr. George, there's a misunderstanding. Please let us go!" Xena reacted first as she cried out immediately.
All she wanted was to leave this place, and she would leave Middle Province at once. She would flourish wherever she went. Even if the head of the George family realized something was amiss afterward, it would be too late by then.
"I can't let them go. I can't verify if your body will have
complications later! You were in the toilet for a long time just now. You must have eaten crotons. Look at you! You look so gaunt. I think you've gotten a little thinner!"
The head of the George family observed his daughter and noticed she had looked a bit thinner. His heart clenched at the sight.
