Chapter 681
Larry squatted on the ground for a long time before he got up and went out to make a phone call. “Mm… check the surveillance video. Find out when Miss Ethen went out, what she went out for, and who she met. By the way, inform Harold.”
After hanging up the phone, he stood in the corridor for a long time. He wiped his face and pushed the door of the ward open, only to find that Larina had already woken up.
Her face was pale and her eyes were clear. Her gaze fell on Larry.
Larry stepped forward to feel her body temperature, but Larina grabbed his wrist and said in a hoarse voice, “Don’t ask anyone to check. If you want to know anything, just ask me and I will tell you.”
“…” Larry looked up and asked, “Did you hear that?”

He first poured a cup of warm water for Larina and let her drink it to moisten her throat. Then, he took at thermometer to test her body temperature. Seeing that the temperature had dropped, he let out a sigh of relief and said, “Larina, I hope you understand that no matter what Harold and I do, we just want you to live safe and sound.”
Larina smiled. “Do you want me to live, or do you not want to disappoint Valeri?”
Larry asked, “What’s the difference?”
“The difference…” Larina muttered. “If it’s the latter, then it doesn’t matter who it is. What you care about isn’t me, but Valeri’s younger sister.”
Larry frowned. “Don’t be paranoid. You’re Valeri’s younger sister, Larina. That’s enough.”
Larina had always been very obedient to her brother’s friends. Seeing that Larry was angry, she skipped this topic and asked, “Has the rain outside stop?”
“No,” Larry said, “but it’s much smaller.”
“It’s rare to see such rainy weather in City W. Larina looked out of the dark window. “It seems like in a rush to wash something clean.”
Larry was silent for a while, then looked at Larina with a gloomy look. “…Did those people come to you again?” The corners of Larina’s lips instantly pursed into a straight line.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Larry’s face was very ugly. “I told you that if those people come to you again, you must tell me or Harold immediately.”
Larina said, “But you know it’s useless, Larry.”

She closed her eyes and said. “They are sure that I have something left by my brother… Even if I don’t know. what they are looking for, they still pester me like ghosts.”
“We can…”
“Forget it, Larry.” Larina said, “I’ve lived these years because they think that I have what they want in my hands. If things get ugly, it will be troublesome for you and Harold… You promised Valeri to never get involved in this matter again.”
Larry opened his mouth and wanted to say that Harold had been trapped in it for a long time. But looking at Larina’s pale face, he couldn’t say it in the end.
He was well aware of Larina’s feelings for Harold. If Larina knew that Harold had gone all out for another woman, she would probably be very sad.
“Why did you go to see them today?” Larry asked.
