Chapter 1288 Ambition
- Ryan hung up without saying a word, and his face was as dark as a thundercloud. Even pedestrians passing by could sense his rage, and they scurried off, leaving him alone. Clutching his phone tightly, his bloodshot eyes gave him a wild, almost demented appearance. "Evelyn…" he seethed, infuriated that someone like Evelyn could dare to threaten him.
- Suddenly, Nicole's name echoed in his mind, a bitter reminder. He recalled when "that person" intervened to save her from impending death. She's lucky. I can't believe "that person" wants to protect her. Still, it doesn't matter. Once I take over the Gardners, "that person" would show up, and I will also take him down. Soon, everything will be mine. It's not a big deal when Nicole's fate was only temporarily postponed. At this thought, Ryan's foul mood dissipated, replaced by a confident spring in his step as he hastily left the hospital. A promising future lay ahead, and no one could stand in his way.
- Meanwhile, the upcoming event at the research center was a festive occasion, with employees adorning the venue splendidly. Even Nicole was made to buy some lovely dresses in the nearest mall. Since she was the head of this center, she couldn't afford to appear in cheap attire at the event.
