Chapter 148

Elena let out a pained cry as her wound was jostled, coughing up another mouthful of blood.

Liam said, “Mom, don’t talk. I’ll take you to the hospital right now.”

Having witnessed the black–clad man strike his mother, Liam wasn’t foolish enough to vent his anger on Aría. His expression darkened as he shot the man a cold glare and ordered his secretary, “Call the police!”

“Yes.” The secretary immediately pulled out his phone.

As the CEO’s mother, Elena’s condition drew immediate concern from the surrounding crowd, who rushed forward to check on her.

The black–clad man, realizing the woman’s identity was far from ordinary, glared venomously at Aria, clearly blaming her for the situation.

Elena wanted her son to deal with Aria, but the pain left her unable to speak. All she could do was point at Aria and let out a weak, frustrated groan.

Aria smirked, her smile sharp and unapologetic. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Cole. I’ll happily testify that he was the one who hit you.”

Already dazed from the beating, Elena was so enraged by Aria’s words that she fainted on the spot.

“Mom!” Liam called.

“Mrs. Cole!”

Liam quickly scooped his mother into his arms and rushed toward the hospital. Meanwhile, his secretary and a few managers stayed behind to handle the situation, ensuring the black–clad man couldn’t escape.

It wasn’t long before the police arrived and took the man into custody.

The five individuals immediately contacted their boss.

Their mission was to keep an eye on Patrick, and in the event of an incident, they were to remain on standby, awaiting further instructions from their

boss.

As the café quieted down, Aria cast a fleeting glance at Rhett before turning and walking away.

A middle–aged man in a suit walked into the office, holding a stack of documents.

“Mr. Schmidt, there are only two young women named ‘Madelyn Colton.‘ One’s still in school, and the other’s already working. Neither of them has ever

been abroad.”

‘How could there be absolutely no information?‘ Martin frowned, puzzled.

“Could ‘Madelyn‘ be an alias?” he wondered.

“That’s very likely. Rumor has it that Professor Colton rarely shows up at KY. One of my former students works there. Back in university, she often traveled to Erenoland and even spent a year as an exchange student. After graduating, she stayed there to work.”

“She also played a major role in developing the protease inhibitors.”

Albert Clinton taught pharmacology and provided instruction to Hannah for six months.

They occasionally discussed academic topics/so he knew a bit about Hannah’s situation.

Martin’s eyes lit up. “Get in touch with her right away. Even if she’s not Professor Colton, she might know who is.”

Albert nodded. “So, are you still planning to work as a security guard at Larkridge High School?”

The professor’s office was cozy, with a lounge in the back, a comfy sofa, air conditioning, and even a TV–perfect for escaping the winter cold: M113 waved dismissively. “No.

“The most important task right now is to find Professor Colton.”

Mandino University’s pharmaceutical analysis program ranked third in the country, attracting a large number of applicants, many of whom are drawn by Martin’s reputation.

Recently, rumors about Martin’s retirement have been circulating, leaving many students regretting their decision to apply to Mandino University.

Martin hoped to find a capable successor before stepping down; otherwise, he wouldn’t feel at ease retiring.
