Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 646

It was nearly half an hour since Ben had followed Howard, but they haven't even received a text message from Ben.

Of course Ariah was anxious.

Calmly, Jimmy drank his tea and said, "He'll definitely send us a text when it's time. There's no use being anxious. Come here."

As Jimmy patted the seat next to him, he looked up at Ariah.

Then, Ariah walked over and sat down beside Jimmy. Happily, Jimmy handed her a cup of water and said, "Have some warm water."

In fact, Ariah had been so busy with this matter over the past few days that she forgot to take care of her own health, and Jimmy noticed that there was an obvious blister at the corner of her mouth. However, the water was too hot that Ariah grimaced in pain due to the burn.

"Sigh, can't you be more careful?" Distressed, Jimmy frowned as he took the cup from her hand and cooled it down with his slightly cold fingers.

"It's fine..."

Aggrieved, Ariah pursed her lips.

Just as Jimmy was about to speak, the phone on the coffee table buzzed.

A text message came in.

Immediately Ariah sat up straight and said, "Take a look and see if it's from Ben."

As Jimmy picked it up and read, he found it was from Ben, so he answered, "Yes, it's him."

"What did he say?"

"He said..."

Repeatedly, Jimmy read the text message, and there was a strange look on his face.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" At that moment, Ariah was in a hurry to find out the answer, so she snatched the phone from Jimmy.

In the end, when she read the text, she was stunned.

Uhm...

Why would Howard go to such a place?

Then, Ariah looked at Jimmy and returned the phone to him as she asked suspiciously, "Could it have been that Ben had sent the wrong text message?"

When Jimmy heard that, he shook his head.

All this time, Ben had always been a careful person. How could he make such a small mistake

like that?

In the text, Ben only sent one sentence, "Captain, Mr. Perkins had come to the city's psychiatric hospital."

Silence reigned in the office, and Jimmy's brows were slightly furrowed.

Suddenly, the phone buzzed again. When Jimmy lowered his head to look, he saw Ben's text that said, "I will follow up first and see what's going on. I will inform you as soon as I have any updates."

Immediately, Jimmy replied, "Be careful."

Meanwhile, when Ben's phone buzzed, he looked down and saw Jimmy's reply. Then, Ben answered, "Yes, sir."

Then, he grabbed her phone and quietly followed Howard into the hospital.

If it weren't for Howard's low vigilance that led to the suspicion of Darren, Jimmy wouldn't have been so angry.

Therefore, Howard had no choice but to come to this place to look for someone.

Only this person could make Darren listen to him.

Which was why Howard had no choice but to look for this person.

Since Howard had been here once, so the nurse on duty knew him. When she saw him, she smiled and said, "Great to see you again, Mr. Perkins."

With dark eyes filled with laughter, Howard greeted, "Good afternoon, Miss Giovani. It's been a while since I last met you, and you seem to be even more beautiful now."

In fact, Howard was a good- looking man with sharp features. Furthermore, with his charming almond-shaped eyes and his smile, he could take every woman's breath away whenever they looked at him. Immediately, Miss Giovani's heart raced, and her face flushed, "Oh, Mr. Perkins. You're such good with words."

With a smile, Howard answered, "I'm just being honest."

Then, Miss Giovani touched her burning cheek and said, "Dr. Perkins, come with me. Mr. Bradbury was just telling me that he was bored this morning. Now that you're here to see him, he will

definitely be happy."

When Howard heard that, his lips curved into a smile, but he didn't say anything.

As Miss Giovani opened the door of the ward, she said, "Dr. Perkins, please come in."

"Thank you."

After Howard expressed his gratitude, Miss Giovani turned around to leave.

In the silent corridor, there was a strange sound. There were occasionally two screams coming from the ward that were not far away. Except for that, there was no other sound.

After Howard took a deep breath, he walked in.

There was a tall and straight figure standing by the window of the ward, and even the simple hospital gown could have a special temperament on him when he wore it.

At that moment, the man who was standing by the window seemed to have heard the sound, so he turned around. Even for a man like Howard, when he saw the man's facial features, he would still be amazed by his features for a moment.

Suddenly, the man's mouth curved. "What are you doing here?"

"Ahem." Immediately, Howard came to his senses and cleared his throat. "I'm here because there's something that I need to ask of you."

Curious, the man raised his eyebrows. "What is it?"

"Darren got involved in a matter concerning my friend. He is covering Kevin up, and he refused to tell me where Kevin is."

However, the man chuckled and said, "Do you think you can find out the whereabouts of Darren by looking for me?"

"Yes." Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

"Why are you so sure about it?"

"With just how respectful Darren is toward you, I'm certain that you must know where he is." Indifferently, Howard looked at the man. "The key lies in whether you're willing to tell me about his whereabouts or not."

After that, the man pointed at the door and said, "You may leave."

Those words left Howard at a loss for words.

Never did he expect that the other party would refuse so thoroughly. There was no room for negotiation at all. For a moment, Howard was speechless, but he then said angrily, "I'm already here. Are you going to drive me away just like that? Are you even a human?"

When the man heard Howard's words, he raised his eyebrows, looked at him for a moment, and suddenly said with a smile, "I can help you, but I need you to agree to a condition."

"Go on."

"I haven't thought about it yet, so I'll tell you when I think of one."

That answer left Howard tongue-tied.

However, Howard gritted his teeth and agreed. "Okay, I'll agree with your condition!"

Slowly, the man turned around and sat down as he lifted his finger slightly. "Did you bring your laptop with you?"

"Oh, no I didn't..."

"Then go and get a laptop."

"Uh, what is it for?"

Without an expression, the man stared at Howard and remained silent. Meanwhile, Howard's scalp turned numb at the gaze from the expressionless of the man and said in a hurry, "Okay, I will go and get a computer now. I'll be back soon."

After that, Howard left the room and headed somewhere. After a few minutes, he returned quickly.

As Howard held a laptop in his hand, he said, "I borrowed it from someone. Could you use it for the time being?"

After that, the man pointed to the table, so Howard immediately took the table and placed it in front of the man. In fact, Howard almost blurted out, "Please, Your Majesty."

Without a word, the man turned on the computer and started to type on the black keyboard with his slender fingers. After a while, the computer's screen suddenly blacked out, but a few seconds later, the computer screen was lit up again, as if it had entered another universe.

However, Howard couldn't understand what was on the screen.

So, he could only stare with his mouth agape.

Two minutes later, a map suddenly appeared on the computer, with a red dot on it.

"What is this?" Confused, Howard asked.

At that moment, the man pushed the laptop away from him and said faintly, "The location that you wanted"

OMG!

Surprised, Howard's jaw almost fell to the ground. How could the man get Darren's position just like that?

Was he even a normal human?

"Note this location down and give it to that police friend of yours. Then, he will be able to know the location of the person that he is looking for."

"Oh, okay."

In a daze, Howard responded. Then, his face suddenly changed. "No, wait. How did you know that my friend is a policeman?"

Slowly, the man got up and walked to the window. Nonchalantly, the man spoke with a mellow and far- reaching voice as it gently floated into Howard's ear, "There's nothing I don't know."

When Howard heard that, he was dumbfounded.

Why did Howard feel like beating him up when he heard that?

When Howard returned, Ben was already back at the police station as he was one step ahead of Howard.

As soon as Ben appeared in the office, Ariah quickly asked, "Ben, why did Howard go to the psychiatric hospital?"

Was Howard alright?

"I don't know." Then, Ben shook his head and said, "I dare not follow too closely because I was afraid that Mr. Perkins would find out. However, I think Mr. Perkins had gone to meet a patient. I

watched him enter the ward from afar and quietly trailed after him in hopes to see who did he meet, but I was caught by the nurse."
