CHAPTER 425

Dexter shook his head in utter confusion. Seeing that, Lara guffawed in the driver’s seat.To her, Dexter

looked like a curious kitten. Even though he was ignorant, he still wanted to stick his nose in

everything.Lara stole a glance at the rear-view mirror and wanted to make a comment. However, her

attention was drawn to a black sedan that had appeared out of an intersection, which was now

cautiously tailing them.Based on her many years of driving experience, she could tell that the situation

was odd. Therefore, she narrowed her brown eyes and growled, “Janet, something’s wrong!”Janet

merely grunted softly without much surprise because she had sensed the unfamiliar but powerful air of

threat closing in. Squinting her eyes and lifting her brows, she replied in her usual calm tone, “Just

drive around and shake them off.”Since these mysterious men were powerful enough to track her down

at Sandfort City—even snooping in the right neighborhoods—she guessed that it was a matter of time

before they found out about Star High School, which she and Dexter attended.Lara stared coldly at the

black sedan and scoffed. “Told them that we couldn’t treat the patient! Why are they still following us

around? I’m impressed.”Dexter had picked up pieces of information from the conversation between

Lara and Janet. Putting everything together, he understood that those men came from Yobril to invite

Janet to save a patient.Feeling amused, he chirped, “Boss, if you can’t cure the patient, I bet there are

none out there who could save him either.”Asking ‘Sandra’ for her help at this moment was almost

impossible!In the car, Janet was on her phone and did not reply to Dexter. Lara stepped on the

accelerator and suggested, “To be honest, I think you can agree to help them. Even if the patient

couldn’t be cured in the end, you will still be paid. They can’t do anything about it, and at least you

wouldn’t create enemies by refusing help.”Dexter nodded in agreement. “Right! Otherwise, they might

keep stalking you!”The payment in question was a considerable amount. In fact, the patient’s family did

not name their price because they wanted Janet to propose an amount herself. However, to their

surprise, Janet refused to accept the case. “I won’t accept any money against my conscience!” Janet

crossed her leg and explained calmly, “If I can’t cure the patient, I won’t give them hope. If I take the

money against my conscience, I’m scared that the patient would haunt me in my dreams!”Listening to

Janet’s words, Lara felt goosebumps all over her skin. She’s indeed the boss, for she is always far-

sighted and comprehensive when making decisions.Dexter thought Janet’s words made sense and

nodded. “Boss, that’s a good one!”During their conversation, the black sedan inched closer to them and

even honked continuously to provoke Lara. However, as a seasoned driver, Lara would not back down.

Instead, she sped up and took alternative routes to shake off the sedan.Drawing from her expert

knowledge of the map of Sandfort City, she soon shook off the black sedan and vanished from their

sight.In the black sedan, a passenger at the back looked disappointed. With a defeated and worried Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

tone, he asked, “Where are they now?”“F*ck! They’re very familiar with the roads in Sandfort. We’re no

match at all!” The driver slapped the steering wheel in anger and sounded apologetic.At the back, the

man frowned and suggested, “We should speak to Young Master Fuller and wait for his decision.”In the

Fuller Residence in Yobril, Reiner Fredrick, the Fullers’ loyal servant, hung up his phone beside the

patient’s bed. He then walked up to Sheldon Fuller to update him. “Young Master Fuller, they lost

Doctor Sandra’s car!”“They lost her?” Sheldon sat on the sofa with a frown. The Fuller Family’s men

were all highly trained, and this operation was supposed to be carried out in secret. How could they

possibly lose track of the lady?Also frowning, Reiner appeared concerned. “If it was easy to meet her,

she wouldn’t have been called the divine doctor for no reason.”Hearing his servant’s explanation,

Sheldon raised his brows with curiosity and worry. On one hand, he was surprised at the doctor’s

alertness, who managed to shake off his most-prided subordinates. On the other hand, as his father’s

health deteriorated, every passing second became more critical. Hence, he could not afford to waste

any more time. “Sheldon, what kind of nonsense is that? Divine doctor? She sounds unreliable. Isn’t it

better to get a doctor in Yobril to treat Dad?” At his side, Hazel stomped in frustration.
