When Richard arrived, he saw Frederick grabbing the vice president’s work clothes with an angry look.
“General Hawthorne, I’m sorry.”
“General Hawthorne. When the vice president heard that Ms. Prescott was shot, he rushed over to rescue her. He was so old, but he persisted on the operating table for six hours before he save Ms. Prescott.”
“He has done his best. Besides, just because there is this possibility doesn’t necessarily mean that Ms. Prescott will not wake up.”
‘Don’t worry. We will definitely send someone to look after Ms. Prescott and do our best to treat her.”
The other doctors started to speak up.
Frederick understood, so he just stood there listening. In the end, he said nothing and slowly loosened his grip.
He lay back on the bed, thinking about the moment when the bullet flew towards him and the scene of Claire being shot.
He clenched his fists.
Upon seeing this, the doctors shook their heads and left.

Richard walked in slowly, looking at Frederick lying on the bed with a painful look. He said nothing and accompanied Frederick silently.
After a long while, Frederick opened his eyes.
Richard was covered in blood, looking exhausted and injured. Frederick could imagine the process of chasing Alan.
Frederick asked, “What happened?”
Richard said, “I’m sorry. Alan was very cunning. He kept using the hostages captured from Bright Night Hotel as human shields. In the end, Alan still escaped. Two of the hostages died, and we were not able to bring them all back.”
Richard lowered his head, looking guilty.
“I know you tried your best. Go bandage your wound and rest.”
Frederick knew very well how difficult it was to fight against terrorist organizations under such circumstances.
Back then, in the war between him and Mark, there were no hostages, no human shields, and he still narrowly escaped death. This time, Alan even took a lot of hostages.
“Yes, General Hawthorne.”
Richard nodded and prepared to treat the wound. But when he reached the door, he thought of Claire and said, “General

Hawthorne, Ms. Prescott will be blessed. She will be fine.”
Frederick responded lightly and closed his eyes.
That night, Claire was lying in the intensive care unit, and Frederick was lying in the ward next to her. Richard guarded
their wards.
He looked at Claire for a while, then at Frederick.
Although Frederick was lying with his eyes closed, he was not asleep at all.
He couldn’t stop thinking about Claire taking a bullet for him.
He thought this was ridiculous.

Claire actually saved Frederick at all costs and took a bullet for him.
He sent her to prison himself.
After she was released from prison, he continued to torture her and asked her to protect Caroline from the knife.
But at that critical moment, Claire saved Frederick at the risk of her own life.

But in his dreams, Claire was everywhere.

She said, “Frederick, I love you. It doesn’t matter if you don’t love me now, but I believe that one day you will fall in love with
- me.
“Frederick, you are mine, and only mine.
“Frederick, I’m so outstanding. How could you not like me?”
But the Claire in his dream was still the girl who was loved and pampered by the Prescott family.
She was so arrogant and domineering, but at the same time, she was also dazzling and confident.
But at the end of the dream, Claire was shot and covered in
blood. She looked at Frederick, smiling and crying.
She said, “Frederick, you will love me, right?”
Then, Claire closed her eyes.
“Claire!”
Frederick shouted and woke up.
Then, he realized it was just a dream.
Frederick secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking of the arrogant look of Claire in his dream. For a moment, all he could

think of was Claire.
In fact, he didn’t hate Claire at all. He just felt uncomfortable every time he saw Claire’s happy and confident look.
Claire was such a proud girl. But Frederick was the unknown illegitimate son of the Hawthorne family.
As far as he could remember, his mother had been locked up. As an illegitimate child, he had suffered loneliness, pain, and injustice in the Hawthorne family since he was a child.
Even after all his desperate efforts over the years, he still couldn’t get Nathan to care about him.

Moreover, Claire had been spoiled by the Prescott family since she was a child.
In Frederick’s opinion, her love for him was only temporary and
not even true.
It was because Claire, as the beloved girl, had never failed to get anything.
She just couldn’t get Frederick. He thought she’d give up.
Therefore, he never felt that Claire loved him, nor would he love- Claire.
But what had happened yesterday…
What happened yesterday was like a thorn in Frederick’s heart.

Everything about Claire kept spreading in his heart and could not be stopped.
He recalled their childhood chase, their companionship when they grew up, their engagement, and how she had been in and out of prison…
Thinking of prison, Frederick suddenly remembered what Claire said yesterday.
He ordered, “Richard, find out everything that happened to Claire in prison over the past four years.”
