Chapter: 48
He recognized the worn jeans and plain white shirt at once.
Almost everyone who came to Jade Hotel would dress up as if they were big celebrities who were going to walk the red carpet.
Even the hotel staff would not wear such simple clothes.
Only she...
“Jack, inform the hotel staff to block this floor and forbid anyone from coming up here," Anthony ordered.
He had many bodyguards working specially for him. Among them, Jack and Janet were the most experienced and powerful. They were also his trusted confidants.
“Yes, Mr. Wilson," Jack said carefully.
He thought that Anthony was angry at the woman and planned to teach her a lesson.
But the next second, he was shocked to see Anthony standing up from the wheelchair! Was Anthony going to shed his disguise in front of this woman?
Ignoring the surprised look on Jack's face, Anthony walked right into Maria's open suite.
Crouching down by her side, he observed her condition carefully.
“She seems to be sleeping,” he murmured in confusion.
Judging by the open door and the way she was sleeping on the carpet instead of the bed, Anthony figured that Maria was either drugged or afflicted with some obscure disease.
Even though she was only asleep, he did not feel comfortable leaving her alone here in case she suffered from any complications.
Thinking of this, he picked up Maria in his arms.
To his surprise, she was much lighter than he had expected.
In fact, she was so light that he even suspected that she was starving herself in an attempt to lose weight.
Anthony carried Maria into his suite, lay her down on the bed, and covered her with a thin blanket.
“Jack, call Mr. Carter here," he said without taking his eyes off of Maria.
For a moment, Jack froze in astonishment.
Rich families inevitably knew the top medical experts in the country.
When even ordinary people cherished their Lives, rich people had no qualms about spending a lot of money in order to receive the best care possible.
By Mr. Carter, Anthony was referring to Christopher Carter, a leading authority in the medical field.
A year ago, he had retired from medical school, but it was said that he had been recruited by a mysterious scientific research institute in Sheffield.
The Wilson family didn't have a close relationship with Christopher, but Anthony was his friend.
