The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1323

“What?! Wayne Larsen is seriously injured and unconscious? When did this happen?” Alex looked at Xyla in surprise. Wayne’s life and death didn’t have much to do with him initially. However, after he knew that Wayne’s wife was Grace Larsen, the relationship then changed. Grace and his father belonged to the same secret organization called the Hidden Dragon. Grace had been affectionately calling his father as “Bro William”, so Alex had reasons to believe that deep down, Grace possibly liked his father. In this regard, it was natural for him to care a little more about Wayne Larsen. Xyla replied, “It’s just this afternoon! When Mayor Larsen was inspecting the underground, he was hit violently by an unknown vehicle, and nearly died on the spot! In addition, Wayne Larsen’s daughter, Phoebe Larsen also encountered an assassin at the same time. Fortunately, Mrs. Larsen was by her side at the time. Mrs. Larsen was once a first tier warrior from a certain official secret organization, her cultivation isn’t weak either. She managed to protect Phoebe, but suffered some slight injuries.” Alex’s frown became deeper. Just then, his phone rang. At first glance, the screen displayed the call was from Phoebe. “Hello?!” Alex answered the call. On the other end, Phoebe’s crying voice came through immediately. “Jerk, my dad is injured and unconscious. Hurry and come!” Alex was speechless. ‘This woman gave me a call to ask me for help. Yet, you still call me a jerk. Did I owe her anything?’ “I know!” “Then, hurry and come over. The doctors here are all useless. Help me think of a way quickly, I can rely on you!” “Is the situation critical? Is it life threatening?” Alex asked. “It’s still fine. His situation is more or less stable, but he can’t be woken up all this time.” “Alright, I got it! I heard that Aunt Grace is also slightly injured. How is her condition?” “My mom is fine.” “Okay, I’ll head over there right away. Don’t worry.” Alex initially wanted to make things a little difficult for this woman as she didn’t even know how to say anything nice when asking for help. However, thinking about her current state, as well as the Sky Tower project that still needed Wayne’s support, he dispelled the notion immediately. He hung up the call. Xyla was slightly astonished. “You seem to be quite familiar with the Larsen family? Phoebe Larsen called you directly to ask for help?” Alex nodded. “Indeed, there is some connection there, but it’s a long story. We’ll talk about it next time, I have to rush over to take a look first.” Xyla said, “Do you want me to drive you there? You’re going to treat a patient, and it will be more tiring to drive on the road.” Alex could feel the concern that Xyla was showing. He was touched and he smiled, “It’s fine! Such a short distance is nothing at all. You’re very busy taking care of the Southern California Business Association, so you don’t have to go out of the way for me like that.” Xyla smiled and said, “What’s a small matter like that to me? It basically doesn’t take up any of my energy at all. It just so happens that I want to drop by home anyway, so just take it as getting a free ride from me on the way!” Hearing her saying so, Alex could only nod in agreement. “I’ll go and prepare some stuff.” Xyla watched as he turned around, watching his retreating back with a deep tenderness in her eyes. It was the sort of tenderness that could melt into water, but it would disappear in a flash. Alex went back to the room and found a few bottles of pills in case of emergency. Then, he spoke to the few women in the house. He didn’t give them any specifics, he just told them that he was going to Michigan to meet a patient. Brittany and the others didn’t press for details as well, and let Alex leave together with Xyla. *** Xyla drove as swift as lighting the entire way. Alex asked her, “Is there any news about Daya lately?” “After entering the secret training base, Daya once met a disciple from the Alaska’s Stoermers. That disciple has already successfully come back from the training base! According to him, Daya is adapting well to the training base, and she even rescued him once,” Xyla said. “Are there many dangers inside there?” “I heard that the conditions are very difficult, and that there are a lot of wild beasts inside. It’s certainly dangerous, but it’s also a place to temper oneself.”
