Roy’s voice made Shirley's heart tighten. instantly, and she couldn't help but ask again, “Has something
happened to him? Is he seriously injured?”
“I have no comment.” With that, Roy hung up the phone. Shirley's head buzzed for a few seconds. Could it be
that Zacharias is really in trouble? No! | have to find out what happened.
Shirley changed into a different outfit and hurried out. If Zacharias were being taken to the hospital, there was
only one hospital suited for him. It had a top-tier medical system and the most secure security system.
Shirley’s car drove toward the hospital. After a series of strict checks and with her proper identification, she
successfully entered.
Her father had been brought here once with a serious injury, and she and her mother had accompanied him for a
month. Shirley quickly went into the lobby. She didn’t ask any nurses because they might not even know if
Zacharias was here.
She headed toward the farthest building, and sure enough, she was stopped as soon as she arrived.

“You can’t enter.”
“I'm Mr. Flintstone’s personal bodyguard. | have special permission to be here,” Shirley said calmly, without a
hint of panic.
“You're not allowed in here. Please leave.” Security was unexpectedly strict, and the guard’s face was stern as
he ushered her away.
Just when Shirley was at a loss, several cars suddenly pulled up behind her. The bodyguards who got out
immediately cleared Shirley out.
“You need to leave. You can’t be here.”
Shirley quickly stepped back, but at that moment, she saw a tall and composed figure stepping out of one of the
cars. She raised her hand in surprise. “Great-uncle!”
Ren had just taken a few steps when he suddenly heard this familiar shout. He looked up, and the bodyguards
also immediately focused on this young girl.
Who is she? Could she be a dangerous individual?
“Shirley? What are you doing here?” Ren looked at his grandniece in astonishment. He couldn't believe he was
running into her here. Isn't she living with her parents at the base?
“Yes, | cto visit a friend,” Shirley quickly explained.
At this moment, the security was certain of Shirley’s identity and immediately withdrew their threat. Upon seeing
the guards step aside, Shirley quickly approached Ren.
“Is your friend here?” Ren was even more surprised. There was only one patient in this whole building.
“My friend is the vice president, Mr. Zacharias Flintstone.” Shirley cleared her throat and spoke.
“You're friends with Zacharias?” Ren didn’t expect his grandniece’s circle of acquaintances to be so wide.
“Great-uncle, can you taketo see him? I'll just take a look and leave.” Ren nodded. “Alright, then. I'm about
to go visit him too. Let's go together. He just woke up.”
Shirley’s heart tightened. What kind of injury does Zacharias have that he only just woke up?

Shirley followed Ren into the elevator and they went all the way up to the eighth floor. Outside the elevator were
various strict security personnel, and they quickly reached the empty corridor outside the ward.
Roy still had bandages on his forehead and, with his men, was standing guard. Suddenly seeing Imogen appear,
he was taken aback. “Imo-"
“Captain Barlowe, I'll explain to you later,” Shirley quickly interrupted him. Fortunately, Ren was concerned
about Zacharias and didn’t pay much attention. Shirley followed him inside. Roy was inwardly shocked as he
exchanged a glance with his men. Imogen cover with the president?
At the entrance of the ward, Ren had just arrived, and a man in his fifties waiting outside the door immediately
stepped forward to greet him. Ren shook hands with him and asked with concern, “How's Zach?”
“He just woke up. The doctors are still conducting a comprehensive examination.” This somewhat weary-looking
man was Zacharias’ father, Josef Flintstone.
Shirley didn’t dare to speak as she stood off to one side, but her heart was already in a state of extranxiety.
She silently prayed that Zacharias would be alright.
“He has over twenty stitches on his back and over ten on his arm. These are all external injuries, and there
needs to be further examination for internal injuries. Fortunately, he’s awake.”
