300 Hospital

- Hospital -

"Where's she?" As soon as Number 1 stepped out of his car, he was greeted by the doctor who took Number 2 to the hospital.

"She is fine now. The operation was a success. She needs more rest and should not be running around for a few weeks. Consider her lucky for getting to the hospital in time. With this type of injury, she is risking her life.' The doctor pushed his glasses up his nose bridge as he spoke to Number 1. His tone lacked friendliness, more on a warning tone.

"Understood. I'll go take a look at her first. You guys can head to the same room Selina was admitted to. Jason should be there with her. I already sent him a message and updated him about everything." With that said, Number 1 quickly made his way into the hospital leaving the trio outside.

"What are we waiting for?! Let's go!" Rosanna dragged her husband and son's arm as she paced forward into the hospital.

- Selina's private room -

"Selina!" Rosanna scanned the room and found her target. She walked past Jason and held Selina tightly in her arms.

"Mom. Don't worry. I'm fine." Selina had just woken up not too long ago. She just finished listening to Jason's explanation of what happened and why she was in the hospital again.

"Let mom take a look at you. You don't know how scared I was when I saw Master Liam strike the girl's abdomen! Thank god the young lady is alright too. She's resting after her operation according to what I heard just now by the entrance. How are you feeling, Selina? Are you feeling unwell anywhere? Any dizziness?" Rosanna continued checking Selina's condition while Eric and Michael stood by Jason with relieved expressions on their faces.

"Anyway, what happened? How did Selina end up in the hospital with you?" Eric looked at Jason for an explanation.

"It's like this. Before Lia left, she left the contact information to reach Number 1 and Number 2 in case of any emergencies. I know this is a risk that I was taking, but I can't let Selina go in her condition. So, I reached out to them for help. Then we came up with a last second plan to have Number 2 disguise as Selina since their figures were quite similar."

Jason took a seat on the space by Selina's bed as he continued telling them what happened. "Since I knew the route you guys were going to take, Number 1 told his underlings to surround a specific block and fake a gangster scene. This way, once all of you are away from the vehicle, we could easily swap Selina and Number 2."

"This makes more sense now." Rosanna clapped her hands. "No wonder something felt weird after we got back into the car. Selina seemed paler than before and lacked energy. I thought she was tired so I didn't ask much. Now that I think about it, it was because Number 2 was injured. Her pain tolerance is impressive. She lost so much blood, yet she could still hold Master Liam in place."

"Yes, and I was worried at first as well about Number 2. Because Number 1 and Number 2 were both involved in protecting Lia, Number 2 ended up injured during the process. When I contacted them, Number 2 just had her stitches done in the same hospital. It was another risky move to have her go in Selina's place with her injuries, but she insisted to help. Number 1 didn't want her to go, but she persuaded him in the end. Sh- Actually, never mind. This part isn't important."

Jason stretched his left arm out, gently rubbing Selina's legs through the blanket. "Thank goodness you're all safe."

"How is Number 2 now? Which room is she in? I want to visit her." Selina lifted the blanket off her body.

"Careful." Everyone in the room followed after Selina as if she was a fragile piece of artwork that could shatter from a pinch.

"From what I heard, Number 2 is resting after her surgery. Number 1 already went to see her first. He will come to us after he sees her. So, don't worry about her. Her operation was a success, so she needs rest to recover." Rosanna held onto Selina's arm as Selina got off the bed.

"Yeah, your mom is right. Number 2 needs rest after the operation. You should visit her later when she is better. If you go now, you might disrupt her rest." Eric quickly backed his wife's words to reassure Selina.

While Michael remained quiet this time, Jason responded differently. "I know which room she is located in. If you want to see how she is, then we'll accompany you. This way, you can rest better knowing how her condition is."

"There's no need for that." Number 1 stood at the entrance with his hands on the back of a wheelchair. On the wheelchair sat a young lady whose face appeared pale, looking sickly. With a faint smile on her face, the young lady touched her face.

"I guess without all the makeup nobody remembers who I am. Hi everyone. I'm Number 2 and this is my quiet cold-faced partner Number 1. I'm alright, so no need to come to visit me." Number 2's throat went dry after speaking a few sentences. Her throat itched for water. As she lightly coughed, she felt Number 1's hand stroke her back.

"I told you to come when you feel better. Stubborn chatterbox." Number 1 mumbled as he took out a thermos from his bag and brought the opened lid to Number 2's lips. While sipping water from the thermos, Number 1 continued speaking.

"It seems like Jason already explained what happened. Do you have any questions for us before we leave? Even though this is a hospital, it is not safe for Number 2 to continue staying here. So before we leave, I wanted to make sure everything is fine." Number 1 explained while Number 2 busily nodded to every word he spoke.

"Thank you so much for your help. If it wasn't for the two of you, Master Liam wouldn't have been caught so easily." Selina took steps toward Number 2 and thanked her.

"No problem. Lia told us to assist in any way we can if anything happens to you guys. We're only doing what she asked us to do. Besides, capturing Master Liam had always been our long term goal anyway. Since we found this perfect opportunity, we obviously needed to take it." Number 2 replied.

"If there is nothing else, we'll take our leave. We still have things to take care of." Number 1 took the thermo out of Number 2's hand after she finished drinking from it. Once the lid was closed tightly, he put it away and held the wheelchair handle again.

"Alright. Bye everyone." Number 2 waved her palm as Number 1 nodded in response before pushing her down the hallway.

As the two entered the elevator, Selina continued observing them from afar. A faint smile rose on her lips.

"Is something wrong?" Jason looked in the same direction Selina was smiling towards.

Selina shook her head in response. "No. Let's go back into the room." She suggested. As she walked, her palms gently stroked her abdomen.
