An Evidence of a Family Member's Instigation

The tension between the doctors and Chairman Jinzi was rising. But, Physician Lan maintained focused his attention on his second son.

"He seemed to be under some sleeping pills. Hmm, his heart is normal, some light bruises on his wrists..." Physician Lan mumbled as he checked his son's pulse. He then tightened his hold and continued carrying his son as they headed toward the exit door.

"Ningzhong, my brief state of in-denial was embarrassing. I'll take responsibility. But believe me, I really did not order them to abduct your second son. I'll be sure to give your Lan Family a proper explanation," Chairman Jinzi quickly blurted as he saw Physician Lan holding his son and was about to walk out of the facility.

Physician Lan slowly took a pause and look in the direction of the three doctors. He stared at them for just a few seconds and tried to observe their expressions.

However, it was useless as the doctors had their heads lowered and just gazed at the floor. "All these doctors are Alpha and I know their identities even if they avoid making eye contact with me."

Then, Physician Lan switched his attention to Chairman Jinzi and muttered, "Our conversation earlier... don't forget---"

"Alpha Ningzhong, do you think we could easily put our hands on your second child without help from your Lan Family member?" the female head doctor finally gathered her courage to speak out.

She then stood from her seat and took a flash drive from the compartment of her desk. "Here, you can check this for yourself. Chairman Jinzi has nothing to do with this. It's someone from your family who orchestrated this. I only agreed to it because of my desperation. I'm sorry for what I've done!"

Despite his anger, Physician Lan's mind was still clear. He did not hesitate to take the flash drive from the female doctor and placed it inside the pocket of his pants.

"Hah! To think that we work in the same medical field. You were my senior back in the university. Alpha Gu should be aware that giving me a reason won't appease my anger! But, I will check whatever data you have handed in later. However, my wife's uneasiness caused by this incident can't be compensated by just a word of apology."

"What do you have in mind, Ningzhong? If you ask me to punish them, I---" Chairman Jinzi started.

But, before he could finish his words, Physician Lan also cut him off...

"---For the sake of the Lan and Jinzi family's close friendship, I won't harm your doctors for now. Your doctors certainly see my Lan Family as their easy prey. Yet, I have to check the full details of this kidnapping. Whatever method you discipline your servants is up to you, Kuan."

Actually, Physician Lan had been investigating secretly and already gathered a little information about how his second son was provoked to the point of telling the condition of Chuntian. But, because of the information he had also implicated one of his family members. Thus he decided not to disclose anything and investigate more.

"Kuan, after I perceived how fierce the Devourer Scent was in this facility, I could somehow understand why your doctors are desperate. Your son's situation is really challenging. But, make sure your servants understand to never lay a finger or even get near to my family members ever again. If they caused harm, I will execute zero tolerance for their actions. No matter how small it is."

Physician Lan did not wait for Chairman Jinzi's response. He strode out of the exit door and hastily sprinted towards his car. He had been glancing at his second son from time to time to see if he regained consciousness.

By the time he put down and secured his unconscious son in the backseat, he immediately took the flash drive out of his pocket. He had not yet unloaded his bag after his drive from Chuntian's place. For some reason, the flash drive gave him an ominous feeling. He could not wait to check the data inside it.

His hands moved at full speed as he opened his bag and got his laptop. After switching on his device, he directly inserted the flash drive into the USB port and opened the file.

It actually contained one video file. But, once the video played on the screen, Physician Lan's body violently shook for a minute. He had to take a deep breath several times before his mind regained its senses.

He was watching the face of his youngest child on the screen talking with the head doctor.

To be precise, his youngest child was not just talking, he was instigating the doctor to target his brother!

Physician Lan finished the video before he drove his car. While the street light turned red, he also made a quick phone call on a loudspeaker.

"Alpha Ningzhong, I'm surprised to receive a call at this time of the day. Are you in a different time zone? A business trip maybe? You know, it's evening now in the Xerulean City," the person on the other side spoke continuously with a hint of a playful tone.

"I am not on a business trip. Are you at your house? I have something on my laptop for you to examine if it's authentic or edited. If you are bored, will you check the file for me? I need an authenticity certificate from your company too," Physician Lan replied in a formal tone.

"Oh? I am seeing an Omega and we are having a good time in the Central Alpha Club. But, since you sound so serious, I'll just have to excuse myself and check that file. Give me five minutes to do it. What is the file name of that video?" the person stated. He was quick to change his playful tone to a formal one.

"I've renamed the file under classified," Physician Lan answered while his attention was focused on the street. "Just contact me tomorrow. I felt bad interrupting your good time," he added.

"It's fine, I've already left the Club. Hah! I just saw your red car pass me on the street! Where have you been?"

"I was visiting our childhood friend. Something came up and I'm heading home. I'm going to end this call, contact me later," Physician Lan said and quickly pressed the red button on his mobile screen.

'My youngest son, I hope you are not behind this kidnapping. Why would you harm our family? I hope the video was edited,' he subconsciously thought.

But, after a while of driving, Physician Lan realized that his mind was starting to wander elsewhere. The faces of his children flashed with good memories of his thoughts. He tried to manage his composure and focused his attention back on the road.
