Chapter: 1797
Out of precaution, the woman took out a mask and a baseball cap to cover Austin's face.
Raegan had booked a family suite. And to keep a low profile, she asked the woman and Austin to get in the hotel room first.
Meanwhile, Stefan went to the pharmacy to buy medicine for Austin.
Austin still had a fever, but the woman firmly refused to send him to the hospital. She had seen Austin in this state more than once.
She had once taken Austin to the hospital when she could no longer bear to see him suffering from fever. However, it only worsened his condition and almost got him killed.
Raegan stayed up with the woman until midnight to take care of Austin.
Finally, Austin's temperature dropped after taking a few more doses of the medicine.
Only then did Raegan breathe a sigh of relief. She urged the woman to get some rest first.
Then, Raegan exited the room Austin rested in. Spotting Stefan sitting at the table and working on his laptop, she felt a little embarrassed. “Stefan, thanks for your help today."
Stefan smiled and replied, “Don't mention it. I'm not sleepy, anyway.
Get some rest first. I'll drive you there tomorrow morning."
Actually, Raegan had asked Judd to find a safe place for Austin and the woman. Erick had many properties in the suburbs of Ardlens. Those places had tight and high-end security and were absolutely safer than that house in Ashfield.
Raegan understood why Nicole was so cautious about Austin's safety.
Jarrod was a madman. If he found out about Austin's existence, he might use Austin to threaten Nicole. After all, he had no sense of kinship.
Raegan felt sleepy after such an exhausting day. With more room suited for Stefan to rest, she hesitated to hit the sack despite her weariness.
Stefan seemed to read her mind. He took his coat, stood up, and said, “I've booked a room next door. Call me if you need anything."
Before he left, Stefan turned around and added, "By the way, I got some leads on the man we discussed before."
Stefan showed the photo to Raegan. “Is it him?"
The man in the photo had a gloomy expression and malicious eyes.
Raegan immediately recognized the man and confirmed, "Yes, that's him."
