Chapter 294 Hidden Connections
Sharon’s words made Jensen’s brows furrow once more.
“They hit you?”
“No, no, they didn’t hit me, I fell by myself.”

Sharon seemed to realize she had said the wrong thing. Her whole body trembled with fear as she frantically denied what she had just let slip.
Jensen’s eyes instantly darkened.
“Housekeeper! Get in here!”
At his low growl, the butler rushed inside.
“Mr. Jensen.”
“I told you to take care of Ms. Summers, and you dare lead the servants to beat her? You really are quite the loyal housekeeper.”
Jensen’s gaze was ice-cold.
The butler was so frightened he fell straight to the ground.
“Mr. Jensen, it was only that one time. Ms. Summers was trying to run away, we had no choice but to stop her.”
“So
you
admit you
laid hands on her?”
Jensen let out a cold laugh. “Good. Very good. I pay you, and this is how you treat her? From now on, you’re all fired.”
With that, he immediately called Hansel.
“Find new servants and a housekeeper to replace the staff at Sharon’s villa.”
The butler let out a wail the moment he heard that.
“Mr. Jensen, I won’t dare again. Please, let me stay.”
Working for the Luke family was easy and paid well. If he were dismissed, there would be a record of it, and future employers might not offer him such generous pay.

But Jensen didn’t care in the slightest.
“Pack your things and leave.”
Though the butler wanted to beg again, the bodyguards dragged him out.
Seeing Jensen act this way, Sharon grew wary.

In the past, she might have believed he did this out of affection, to vent his anger for her. But after all she had been through lately, she understood clearly that Jensen had once decided to completely abandon her.
She had even been at risk of assassination.
Yet now Jensen was acting differently. That could only mean he needed something from her.
Her mind worked quickly.
In some things, Sharon’s intuition was sharp.
She knew this was just his setup. The real point was still to come.
Wrapped in a blanket, Sharon curled up at the corner of the bed. She only shed silent tears, looking every bit like a helpless child.
Seeing her like this, Jensen’s tone softened.
“If they ever bully you again, call me. I’ll have the villa’s phone lines connected. From now on, you’ll be able to call me directly.”
Sharon felt a flicker of joy inside, though she didn’t let it show.
She only nodded timidly.
Watching her, Jensen couldn’t help but ask, “Sharon, I have something I want to ask you. You must answer me truthfully.”
Her heart skipped a beat.
What did he want to ask?
She clutched the sheets tightly and spoke in a soft, weak voice. “Jensen, what do you want to know? As long as I know it, I’ll tell you everything.”
“You’d better.”

Jensen’s gaze fixed on her as he enunciated each word. “That year, Witch Doctor’s diagnosis report and your donation agreement where did you see them?”
agreement-where
At once, Sharon’s face changed.
Why was he suddenly asking about that?
Did he know something?
“Jensen, why are you suddenly asking me this?” Her voice trembled faintly.
From her expression, Jensen could tell she was hiding something.
“Nothing. I just want to know Witch Doctor’s whereabouts. Logically, for you to have seen his diagnosis report, you should have been close to him. But when your hand was smashed, why didn’t you go to him for treatment? I remember you begged me to find him back then.”
His sharp gaze searched her face.
Sharon grew even more uneasy.
In a low voice, she said, “I only knew about Witch Doctor’s diagnosis and donation records because Dr. Johnson told me. I don’t know him personally. If I did, I would have gone to him myself.”
“Dr. Johnson? You mean Dr. Johnson knows where Witch Doctor is?”
Jensen’s brows knitted tightly together.
His investigation over this time had shown that Dr. Johnson wasn’t as simple as he appeared.
There were countless hidden ties behind him, yet none with a clear direction, which made things maddening.
Jensen knew Sharon’s limits.
She might be scheming in small ways, but she had no qualification or ability to approach Witch Doctor directly.
So the key figure was Dr. Johnson.
“Do you know any of Dr. Johnson’s other hideouts?”
“No. My connection with him was only that much. Jensen, why are you suddenly asking me all this?”
