Chapter 167 A Conspiracy (1)

• In the hospital, Ian was similarly uncontactable via cell phone and after I'd asked most of the people around, finally, I was told that he was still in the operating theater so there was no way of reaching him. Resigned, I had no choice but to go back to the Heigl Residence. However, as soon as I walked out of the hospital, I received a phone call from Jessie and she sounded quite frantic. She asked me to pop over to Everwood District as soon as possible.
• I wasn't sure what was going on at the moment but she kept telling me to hurry up, so I had no choice but to hail a cab to get there.
• However, as soon as I arrived at the entrance of the condominium in Everwood District, I had just lifted my hand to knock on the door when the door suddenly opened from the inside. Before I could even react, I was then forcefully dragged into the house. Right after that, my neck was held in a vise-like grip and I was forcefully held against the entrance.
