After a moment of silence, with a grim expression on his face, Lucas said, "I want you to make arrangements. Make sure that you find Jaden, and you take care of him as soon as possible. In fact, I want you to find him alive. I will do the rest of the job personally."


    "Yes, young master." The group of bodyguards responded. Immediately after that, they turned around and left. As they left, only a single person was left behind together with Lucas.


    Until today, Lucas had never seen this man smiling before. His expression was always indifferent, as if he never cared about anything that was happening around him.


    Still, Lucas did not say anything to this person. The one that had assigned this man to him was none other than his father. Since that was the case, there had to be a reason why this person was assigned to him as a bodyguard.


    So, when the rest of the group left, only Lucas and this man remained behind. They observed the area for a while, before they finally left. Lucas was heading towards a club, even though it was currently daytime.


    He was currently stressed. If they could not deal with Jaden, that implied that it was going to be impossible for him to go back home with success. If that happened, things were going to get bad for him. So, no matter what, he had to complete this task as soon as possible.


    But of course, right now, since his subordinates had already gone to handle the matter together, he decided to go and relax by enjoying his time within the club. Currently, since there was not a large number of people within the club, nobody was going to disturb him.


    The man with a cold expression on his face followed behind Lucas without saying anything, before they got into their own vehicle and left.


    ….


    It took them slightly less than an hour to be able to arrive at the hospital. Of course, the hospital that they went to had to be top notch.


    The top notch hospital present within the city right now was none other than The Restoration. Coincidentally, this was the same hospital that the old man that Jaden was taking care of currently, had been transferred to.


    So, after Vincent and the others were taken to the emergency side, where they were being taken care of, Jaden decided to go and visit the old man. He was not sure if the surgery had already taken place, but still, he wanted to see the old man.


    Scarlet was quite curious about where Jaden was going to, and so, she decided to follow him after he had asked her to wait for him as he went out a little. Jaden did not refuse when Scarlet decided to follow him. In any case, this was going to make things easier for him, considering that he would be able to protect her only if he was together with her.


    Lucas wanted to follow, but he decided against it. He was already in the know of who it was that Jaden was going to see. Still, he was surprised when he realized that that old man had been taken to this hospital.


    But even then, he was definitely not happy about the fact that Scarlet seemed to be kind of attached to Jaden just after a few days of interaction. This immediately made him to understand that he would have to speed up the progress of the plans that he was having.


    Otherwise, if he delayed, who could tell if Scarlet would end up falling in love with Jaden? If that happened, then things were going to get bad for him. After all, how was it going to be possible for him to be able to convince Scarlet not to love Jaden anymore?


    So, not long after the two of them had left, Lucas also excused himself and left the emergency department of the hospital. He decided to go and make a call of his own, to speed up the plans.


    Jaden and Scarlet did not know about Lucas'' plans. The two of them simply headed towards another department that was in charge of surgery. He had already been informed in advance where the old man was going to be taken to before the old man was transferred.


    Not long after, they finally arrived. When they got to that area, Jaden asked the one that was in charge of the reception area for this department, and he was immediately directed to where he was going to get the old man.


    According to the information that he had been given, Jaden understood that the old man had yet to undergo operation. But still, the operation had been arranged to be carried out the following day, on Tuesday.


    That was quite a relief. As long as the surgery was successful, Jaden believed that the life of the old man would definitely not be in danger anymore, as long as he was able to recover after a while.


    Of course, he was not that much surprised by the fact that the surgery had not yet taken place. Before a surgery took place, the doctors would have to carry out a lot of testing. Otherwise, if they did a faulty surgery, it might end up with the death of the patient.


    It was good enough that the old man''s life was supported by the life supporting machine, and it was not impossible for him to be able to survive until the day of the surgery. So, Jaden did not hurry them up, hoping that they would take their time, and carry out the operation successfully.


    Standing outside the ICU, Jaden looked at the old man on the bed. The old man''s complexion was currently pale. Still, there was blood that was being transfused into the old man. This was due to the fact that the old man had lost a lot of blood previously.


    And although he had already received blood transfusion in the hospital that Jaden had taken him to before, it seemed that the experts of this hospital thought that it was not enough.


    Scarlet on the other hand looked at the old man inside the ICU. Then, she looked at Jaden, before looking back at the old man. She was trying to find any kind of resemblance between the two of them, but no matter how much she looked, she could not find any kind of resemblance between the two of them.


    "Is he your grandfather?" Scarlet asked.


    Jaden was not expecting that question from Scarlet. But even then, he was able to respond. "Kind of. He is the one that has been taking care of me for quite a long time during my struggles."


    "Oh." Scarlet responded simply. She did not know much information about Jaden, and so, she did not think much about the implication of Jaden''s words. But still, she believed that the relationship between the two of them was quite close.


    Otherwise, it was going to be impossible for Jaden to possess that expression on his face as he stood, looking at the old man through the glass. Even though she was quite curious about how deep the relationship between the two of them was, she did not ask.


    She remained silent, and stood beside Jaden for quite a while. And after about 20 minutes, Jaden finally decided to leave the area for now. He would come back if there was a chance tomorrow, so that he could see this old man again during the surgery and after.

    As he left in the area, Scarlet left together with him. They went back to the area where Vincent and the others were being attended to. When they got there, the majority of them had already been attended to, and the only one that was remaining was Vincent.


    He was still within the room where he was having the injuries that he had suffered being dressed. It would take another 5 minutes or so before he came out. So, Scarlet and Jaden joined the rest of the group, with Lucas having already returned, while waiting.


    Finally, about 5 minutes later, Lucas came out. But the moment that he appeared, the group could not help but begin snickering, while Lucas and Scarlet laughed out loud. Even though Jaden was trying to hold back, he could not help but smile from time to time.


    Well, it was quite comical to look at Vincent. The guy was currently wearing the helmet of bandages on his head. In fact, even his mouth had been wrapped in bandages, leaving only the uninjured eye and the nose. The rest of the facial features had all been wrapped in bandages.


    Other than that, Vincent''s arm was also wrapped in a bandage as if it had been broken. It was being supported. This was another thing that made the group a little speechless. After all, this guy had been driving not long ago, and he was driving using both of his hands. So, how was it that his hand was broken?


    When Vincent realized that the group was laughing at him, he could not help but glare at them. Still, there was nothing that he could say, as his mouth was currently sealed.


    "Hahaha! I can guess that it is your cousin that wrapped you like that, isn''t she?" Scarlet asked as she tried to control her laughter.


    Vincent nodded his head. The moment that he did that, Scarlet laughed out even louder. She understood Vincent''s cousin quite well. She was quite overprotective of Vincent. And coincidentally, during the time that Vincent and the others had come over to be treated of the injuries that they had suffered, that cousin was just passing by.


    Immediately, she decided to handle Vincent personally. As for why she had decided to wrap Vincent like that with bandages, Scarlet was not sure about it. Still, it was quite funny.


    At this moment, the door behind Vincent opened up. Then, a lady wearing the doctor''s white coat and a stethoscope hanging around her neck walked out.
