Chapter 348

But she was not.

As he was thinking about this, his phone suddenly rang.He lowered his head to take a look and was
suddenly stunned when he saw the number.

It was a number he had memorized by heart all these years.

He frowned and picked up the call.

As soon as the call went through, Tanya's voice came from the other end.

"Mr.Joel, I called you to ask what happened to Nora.I was in class just now.After seeing her message, I
couldn't get through to her."

Joel's eyes darkened slightly as he briefly explained the situation.

Tanya was silent for a long time before saying, "Nora's medical skills are indeed very impressive.It's
impossible for such a medical accident to happen.This is definitely an accident.No matter what
happens to her, Mr.Smith, you have to ensure her safety!"

After saying that, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "If you can save Nora, I can teach Mia
how to dance!"

The words Joel was about to say were stuck in his throat.

In Tanya's eyes, was he such a man who did not even care about his cousin's life? A bitter smile
appeared on his lips.

"Don't worry.I won't let anything happen to her”

After hanging up, Joel looked at the butler.



"Contact the lawyer and bail Nora out first!"

The butler lowered his eyes in disappointment and obediently said, "Yes" Yvonne bit her lips.

She was already like this, yet he still wanted to bail her out ...It seemed like blood relations were indeed
different.

However, no one expected that the butler would return half an hour later with unexpected news.

With a complicated expression, he stared at Joel and said, "The lawyer went to the police station, but
he didn't expect them to say that Miss Nora can't be bailed out’' Joel's pupils shrank at these words.

"Why?"

The butler shook his head.

"I don't know.It seems like some power is involved.When the lawyer gets the medical test results, Miss
Nora's matter must go according to the normal procedures.Unless Old Maddy survives, it will be difficult
for Miss Nora to be released this time."

There were other forces? In New York, other than the Hunts, was there anyone more powerful than the
Smiths? Joel was certain that there was not.

At least not openly.

Unless the other party was...

As he was thinking, the butler said, "Sir, do you think we should go through other channels or find
someone?"

The Smiths had a lot of connections.



However, Joel seemed to have thought of something.

His pupils constricted.

"There's no need.We'll go to the hospital to see Old Maddy!"

If that person had made a move, they would have to follow the proper procedures.

When they arrived at the hospital, they realized that Old Maddy was still undergoing surgery.

The lights were still on and he had not come out yet.

The attending doctor waiting outside was very anxious.

"Old Maddy's nerves have been damaged.We can't find the reason for his nose and mouth bleeding,
but all his physical signs are going downhill.There's nothing we can do!"

Joel frowned.

"Haven't you seen such a situation before?"

The attending doctor shook his head.

"No...but I've heard of it!" Joel looked at the attending doctor.

"Where have you heard of it?"

The attending doctor said, "Many years ago, there was a woman overseas who was also bleeding from
her mouth and nose for no reason.She was on her last breath.In the hospital, they had also checked all
parts of her body, but they could not find any problems.In the end, it was Anti who saved her.Later on,
Anti could not explain the reason either.It seemed to be caused by some imbalance in medicine..."



Anti? It was this Anti again! Joel looked at the butler.

"Contact Anti immediately and tell her to come and save Old Maddy!"

"...Yes!"

said the butler.

When the butler went to contact Anti, Joel frowned and stared at the operation theater.

He made another call and invited all the specialists he could get from New York.

During the specialist's consultation, Joel stood at the side and did not interfere.

This was not within his ability.

His greatest strength was that he did not dabble in things he did not understand.

After handing Old Maddy's life to a trustworthy doctor, he picked up his phone and contacted the
police.He wanted to find out what was going on with Nora and why she could not be bailed out.

"Alright, help me find out.Thanks."

After hanging up another call, Joel took out his phone and prepared to call Justin.

Since the Hunts could invite Anti, even if Joel did not want to admit that he was inferior to Justin, he
had no choice but to ask the Hunts for help at this moment.

But at this moment, Yvonne walked over.

She looked at Joel and asked, "Joel, what can I help you with?"

Joel looked at her and frowned.



He was about to say that he did not need her for the time being when his phone suddenly rang.

It was a friend he had asked for help.

He had found out the reason why Nora could not be bailed out.

Both sides were anxious, so he looked at Yvonne and said, "Contact Mr.Hunt immediately and tell him
that Old Maddy is being treated and needs Anti's help"

He subconsciously felt that if Nora could inform Tanya before she was taken away by the police, then
she must have also informed Justin.

Yvonne's pupils shrank at the mention of Justin.She nodded immediately.

"Okay, answer the call first."

When Joel walked to the side to answer the call, she took out her phone and dialed Justin's private
number.

Back then, the Hunts and the Smiths had both wanted to matchmake them, so it was very normal for
her to have Justin's number.

The call was quickly picked up and she rejoiced secretly.

She felt that Justin still had his eyes on her.

Otherwise, why would he pick up her call? Justin's deep voice resounded, "Yvonne, is something the
matter?"

When Justin saw the phone number, he did not want to pick it up.

After all, he did not want to have anything to do with her.



However, after thinking about it, he still picked up the call.

He was afraid that Nora's phone had run out of battery, and she was just borrowing Yvonne's phone to
call him.

Yvonne's heart sank at his distant words.

She lowered her eyes and said slowly, "Yes, something happened.Nora treated the Smiths' servant,
Old Maddy, but he had an accident.Now, she has been taken away by the police."

Justin sensitively caught the main point.

"How's Old Maddy?"

Yvonne replied ambiguously, "All the medical teams of the Smiths are here, they're treating him as we
speak."

When Justin heard this, he said bluntly, "I'll go to the police station”

With that, he hung up.

Yvonne stared at her phone.

Actually, the most important thing now was not to bail Nora out.

It was just like when he first heard that Nora had been taken away, Joel's first reaction was not to bail
her out.

As the police station was the safest place, nothing would happen to her if she stayed there.

Old Maddy was the most important thing.



After Joel found out about the entire matter, he quickly sent a doctor to the hospital.

Otherwise, Old Maddy would have died long ago.

Only if Old Maddy was alive, would Nora be released.

Even if Justin went to the police station to deal with them, it might not be of much use! Instead, it would
waste time! Yvonne clenched her hands into fists and lowered her gaze, hiding the viciousness and
hatred in her eyes.

Elsewhere.

Joel was picking up the call.

"Who did you say won't bail her out?"

His contact was on the other end of the line, and his voice was very low.

"It's Captain Ford'’ Captain Ford...

Morris? It was as he had expected.Only Morris had the ability to do so! But why would Morris target
Nora? Joel narrowed his eyes.

"What's going on?" The other party sighed secretly.

"This is confidential.Forget it, I'll tell you.Captain Ford has given an order to the police station.He will
personally investigate all the cases involving Miss Nora! Especially when it involves…”

The person on the other end paused before continuing, "...When a life is on the line, bail cannot be
granted.He's worried that Miss Nora will escape after being bailed out' Escape...

Joel frowned.



This order should not have been given for an ordinary girl.

It was more suitable to be given to fugitives and murderers! They were afraid that she would find an
opportunity to escape.

Once she was arrested, she would be detained for 24 hours and would not be let go of.
