Oops My Toyboy Is A Hidden Tycoon

Filip was frozen in place, unable to move. Cynthia walked over and asked, “How’s Lilian doing?”

The chief physician took off his mask, looking serious. The bleeding has temporarily stopped, but she’s severely injured There’s a risk of organ failure at any moment. Lilian was taken to the intensive care unit.

Cynthia stood blankly at the doorway. Jonathan came over and wrapped his arms around her from behind. “Lean on me and rest for a while,” he said.

Since Lilian

was in agony.

shot, Cynthia felt like all her nerves were stretched tight like a string. She felt dazed, yet every part of her

Now, in Jonathan’s arms, Cynthia’s tense nerves finally relaxed a bit. She leaned into him, tears slipped down her cheeks.

“How is Lilian’s baby?” Cynthia asked.

“The initial checkup shows nothing wrong, but since the baby is premature, it is weak and will need to stay in an incubator for some time,” said Jonathan.

Cynthia’s mind was filled with the image of the child’s pale, suffocated face. Even now, the memory made her shiver. She didn’t dare to look at the baby twice, and holding him felt immensely heavy.

Cynthia didn’t ask more questions about the child. After a short pause, Jonathan spoke, “I’ve asked the police- the shooter’s name is Luke. His original target was you. Do you know him?”

Hearing the name Luke made Cynthia’s body tense for a moment. She certainly knew who Luke was.

After all, when she investigated Luke’s background, she sought help from Simon. Last time, she settled a debt of 10 million dollars for Luke and even left an extra million.

She never truly intended to help Luke repay his debt. Whether it was ten million or one million made no difference to her. Later, manager Oliver specifically called her to say they had cut off one of his fingers as a warning.

“Could it be that he held a grudge against her because of this? Cynthia doubted it. The incident had happened several days ago, and she didn’t think it was enough to warrant such an extreme reaction.

Cynthia asked, “How did Luke get in Yates family’s wedding? How did Luke even know she would attend the wedding? If he wanted to kill her, why choose such a grand event with so many people? Wouldn’t that be walking right into a trap!”

Cynthia’s expression turned cold. “Where is he now?”

Jonathan replied, “He’s dead. Shot himself.” Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Cynthia’s heart gave a fierce jolt. “Dead?”

Jonathan continued, “He was exposed at the wedding but managed to take a hostage and escape, However, instead of hiding afterward, he returned to his home, set a fire, and tried to die along with the hostage. In the end, the hostage escaped, and he shot himself.”

Jonathan’s voice turned colder. “Can you guess who the hostage was?”

“Who?” asked Cynthia.

Jonathan answered, “Shirley.”

As soon as the name Shirley was mentioned, Cynthia’s temple throbbed suddenly. Almost instantly, Cynthia figured out what was going on.

She curled her lips into a cold smile. “So it was her. I really underestimated her. She actually had the nerve to kill someone.” The realization brought a hint of irony to her eyes. “Indeed, it’s got her first time killing someone.”

Jonathan also thought it was quite a coincidence that Luke took Shirley as a hostage. Especially after watching the surveillance video. He noticed that when Lake was exposed, Shirley deliberately moved closer to Luke.

Then she suddenly tripped right in front of Lake. That was just too much of a coincidence, he thought.

With a grim expression, Jonathan asked, “Are you saying that Luke is connected to Shirley? That Shirley hired someone to

kill

Jonathan hadn’t considered that possibility at all. To him, Shirley was just a ridiculous clown.

But killing someone… did she really have the courage for that? And what did Cynthia mean when she said it wasn’t her first time killing?” he wondered.

Jonathan suddenly remembered something and pulled out his phone. “Shirley has already left, and many people are vouching for her. She’s cleaning her name right now,”

He continued. Tll contact Director Theodore immediately to investigate her thoroughly. If there’s truly a connection, I’ll make sure she pays dearly for it.”“

A fierce determination flashed in Jonathan’s eyes. He had expected some surprises at the wedding today, but not a murder.

In a society governed by law, someone actually dared to shoot in broad daylight. Jonathan found it unbelievable, yet it also served as a wake–up call for him.

Initially, he suspected Whitney. After all, this was the kind of thing only Whitney seemed capable of doing. He never expected it to be that fool.

He really underestimated her, Jonathan thought.

Cynthia didn’t know how Shirley had managed to clear her name, but she could guess. Luke’s death was likely also her doing.

She had orchestrated a plan involving two people: making Luke kill himself while framing him as the culprit, creating the illusion that he had taken his own life out of guilt. After all, no one knew about their connection.

Cynthia suddenly held Jonathan’s hand. “Leave Shirley to me.”

Cynthia’s gaze flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. “If you arrest her now, it will only alert her. Don’t forget, she has your sister backing her. Ruben can find someone to take the fall for her for that poisoning incident from three years ago.”

She continued. “Even if this was truly Shirley’s doing, they could cover it up. Besides, if she dared to act this way, she must have been well–prepared, and most of the evidence is probably already destroyed.”

Cynthia’s voice had calmed down. “Let her enjoy her moment for now. I will deal with her personally; I want to push her from the clouds down into hell.”

During these days, Cynthia had been at the hospital, while Lilian remained in a coma. Jonathan had stationed numerous bodyguards nearby for protection.

He was truly scared.

Henry and Pamela also came by twice. They were both deeply moved and even felt a bit sad about the situation.

They also couldn’t understand why Lilian would take the bullet for Cynthia. ‘Weren’t they supposed to be sworn enemies? they wondered.

These days. Filip had been feeling miserable. He sat outside the CU without eating or drinking, completely lost in thought. During this time, Lilian had to be resuscitated twice due to heart failure. Each time, a critical condition notice was issued. However, even after being revived, there were no signs of awakening. The doctors candidly stated that the situation was not optimistic and advised the Yates family to prepare themselves mentally
