When mentioning the three words “Willson Pavilion,” Miles Cook’s eyes stayed on Julius Reed.
She wanted to know what his reaction would be.
After all, based on the previous events, it was clear that Julius Reed was aware of the existence of Willson Pavilion.
But to know about Willson Pavilion and still dare to strike with a lethal hand, what was the reason?
This was enough to pique her curiosity.
However, to Miles Cook’s disappointment, from beginning to end, Julius Reed’s expression didn’t change once.
It was like the calm surface of a lake, without a single ripple.
“Have you come all this way just to tell me this?”
Julius Reed looked into the distance and asked softly, “What’s the reason? I did injure your people, and I can assure you, they’re ruined for life.”
The bodyguards struck without holding back, yet Julius Reed could assess the physical condition of Quantez Springs.
Under those circumstances, if they had beaten him for another minute, it’s very likely Quantez Springs would be dead by now.
And when he called off those bodyguards, it was right at a critical point. After all, being alive can be more agonizing than being dead.
“Consider it gratitude for sparing their lives,” said Miles Cook with a bitter smile.
She was a beloved daughter of heaven, with considerable abilities.
But now, to actually thank someone for sparing life…
This huge psychological gap brought her completely down to earth, changing her previously haughty attitude.
“Well, thank you for that, but what I want to tell you is that Maurice Springs might not be able to make it, and even if he does, he’ll be alone.”
Julius Reed turned around, looked Miles Cook in the eyes, and spoke deliberately.
“Impossible!”
Miles Cook said emphatically: “I know Master’s personality very well. With Quantez Springs injured like this, he could arrive as early as tomorrow morning! And we at Willson Pavilion have always been united; we will surely send a large number of elites.”
As a Disciple, how could she not understand her own Master’s personality?
Maurice Springs had only one son, Quantez Springs, whom he cherished greatly. Now that his only son had been beaten to such a state, with Maurice Springs’s unforgiving nature, he would certainly rush here overnight.
She felt Julius Reed was being somewhat naive.
“That’s all I have to say. Perhaps he will tell you he won’t come, but he will definitely come back.”
Julius Reed shook his head, talking to himself.
These words completely confused Miles Cook. How could they contradict each other?
“You…”
But just as she was about to speak, her phone suddenly rang
Seeing the caller ID, Miles Cook paled in shock!
“Master.”
She answered the phone with furrowed brows.
Could it be that her Master was already on his way?
“I have something to do, so I won’t be coming over. You must, you must take good care of Quantez! Did you hear me!”
From the other end of the phone, Maurice Springs’s angry voice came through. Clearly, his tone was tinged with indignation, anger, and murderous intent.
“Master, are you not coming?”
Miles Cook doubted what she’d heard.
How could this be possible? With Quantez Springs nearly beaten to death, could this father, who cherished his son, really endure this?
“I’m not coming, just take good care of Quantez!”
After saying these words, Maurice Springs abruptly hung up the phone, leaving Miles Cook dumbfounded.
“Master… he’s not coming…”
Miles Cook looked at Julius Reed, her expression dull.
Unexpectedly, he had guessed right.
But what was the reason?
“He will come, by tonight at the latest.”
Julius Reed raised his head to glance at the sky and said with a smile.
“This…”
Now, Miles Cook was thoroughly confused.
But Julius Reed’s manner suggested he wasn’t making things up; he appeared to know some insider information.
“I should go.”
Miles Cook lowered her head, intending to leave.
Now that Maurice Springs wasn’t coming, her warning was meaningless.
“No need to thank me!”
Whoosh!
Julius Reed slapped his palm on the back of Miles Cook.
This female disciple from Willson Pavilion had no defenses up and was abruptly sent flying five meters away, collapsing on the ground and coughing up blood profusely.
In an instant, Miles Cook felt as though she was about to die, her internal state becoming utterly chaotic, and blood spurted out one mouthful after another. From a distance, Miguel Abbott and that group of bodyguards were completely dumbfounded.
What exactly was happening?
Just a moment ago, the two were chatting and laughing, so why did Julius Reed suddenly make a move? And such a heavy one at that?
“Thank you…”
Miles Cook got up from the ground, her pale face devoid of color.
“Tonight, he will come!”
Julius Reed still looked as calm as ever.
“Okay!”
Miles Cook took a deep breath, feeling like her whole body would fall apart with each step she took.
But she was very clear in her mind that Julius Reed was helping her.
And the fact that the other party was so confident that Maurice Springs would come did not seem like a lie.
Miles Cook did not believe it when Julius Reed prophesized that Maurice Springs wouldn’t come before.
This time, she chose to believe.
If Maurice Springs saw Quantez Springs in such a terrible state while other disciples were unharmed, he would surely take his anger out on these people! Now, Julius Reed had injured her, providing her with a perfect excuse.
That was why she said thank you.
As for Miguel Abbott and the others, they were completely confused.
Being beaten up and still saying thank you, just what kind of people were these two?
But none of them dared to ask.
Julius Reed did so for a good reason, certainly.
Soon, Miles Cook disappeared into the Shining Pearl over the water, and Julius Reed returned to the top floor VIP room to rest quietly.
Tonight, there would be a fierce battle!
By the time Miles Cook returned to the hospital, Quantez Springs’s surgery had just finished.
The top surgeon in the province had nearly exhausted all his efforts to barely save his limbs.
But even with them saved, they weren’t of much actual use.
For the rest of his life, Quantez Springs would have to spend it in a wheelchair.
Even walking had become a luxury.
As the night grew deeper, the group guarded in the sickroom with heavy hearts.
“Senior sister, what did Master say?”
What everyone cared about was the issue of Maurice Springs.
Quantez Springs was seriously injured, and it was already a miracle he had survived.
If Maurice Springs saw this scene, it would be unavoidable to get involved.
“Master said he won’t come.”
Miles Cook raised her head and saw the various thoughts in everyone’s eyes.
Usually, it’s fine when nothing happens, but in times of crisis, these people all rush to shirk responsibility.
“Not coming?”
Upon hearing this news, the youths first felt surprised, then became excited.
If Maurice Springs did not come, he wouldn’t witness such a tragic scene, and their guilt would be greatly reduced.
But just then, the door to the sickroom was pushed open.
Everyone turned their gaze towards the entrance to the sickroom.
This was the highest level VIP sickroom, costing tens of thousands of yuan for just one night’s stay.
To have someone daring to barge in now?
But when they saw clearly who the visitor was, they couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat!
Because the person who came was Maurice Springs, the very person Miles Cook said would not come!
Differing from before, Maurice Springs came alone this time, without bringing any disciples from Willson Pavilion.
“Master!”
Everyone stood up and gave Maurice Springs a deep bow.
But Maurice Springs did not pay attention to them, instead walking to Quantez
Springs’s bedside..
