Chapter 73 Chapter 73 BringLily looked really upset. Her face looked tired, and she seemed weak. Her arm was still bleeding I didn't know how she got hit, but it was clear that Leonard wouldn't be able to say no to her Istepped back to give them one privacy. Leonard glanced atand then said to Lily, "have the driver take you to the hospital" *No. Lee, I need you to cwith me. I'm scared," she said, her voice shaking.
She cling to Leonard like she was used to it, as if this wasn't the first tHer tears were flowing freely, and people around us were watching. Finally, Leonard gave in. "Take her to the hospital," he said.
I nodded, not feeling like saying anything more.
As Lead and Lily left, the female officer from earlier cover again.

I smiled and shook my head. Being upset wouldn't help. I'd learned to stay calm over the years.
Seeing someone 1 km, I quickly stopped her "Officer, I don't think Tom acted alone. There's something strange about all this." Texplained my concerns and evidence to her. The afficer looked uneasy.
"Ms. Green, the case is almost finished. The evidence we have fits together, and there are several witness statements. Unless Tom changes his story, there's not much more wee can do." She added, "Given how serious the cris, it's unlikely he'd take all the blby himself. But if you find any new invidence, you should give it to us." Ishook my head, feeling frustrated.
"There's no such thing as real coincidences, I thought. Most so-called coincidences are just things people make happen on purpose." Since Teuldn't see Tom I couldn't get any answers.
So, instead of going home, I went straight to Zack. I couldn't afford to let the Brighteve Group project get delayed or fall through because it would cause him a lot of problems. When I got to Brightwave Group, Zack was still in acting, so I waited in his office. His office was very plain, with just the basics, much like Zackhunself.
I thought about college. Ten though Zack was interested in me, be never gavefancy gifts Instead of flowers, he'd bring large bags of snacks, which he'd give to my roommates, where they'd help to carry them to my dorm Back then, Priscila was his biggest fan... Even during final, Zack always helped out. He'd put together all the study materials and send them t Even though he was abroad when we graduated, he still made sure everyone in the dorm got a graduation gift.
As I was thinking about these things, Zack walked into the office.
"Sorry for malding you wait," he said. "I've been really busy. How long have you been here?" I shook my head and andowardly explained what happened.
thed out Tom hadn't copied any data, so we'd need to redo the design plans and simportant detail "Zack, I can recreate part of it from memory, but we'll need the whole team to work on the detailed designs" As the lead designer, 1 could handle sof it, but the Brightwave Group team put in a lot of work, and I won't familiar with all the details.

Fremembered getting hit and felt abi diccy, but I knew I had to focus on work Zack didn't wait for myresponse. He took my arm and said, "We're going to the hospital first we'll talk about work later." At the hospital, they found only minor cuts and no serious brain damage. It was clear that the attacker didn't mean to killOnce Zack knew I was okay, he said, "Maybe someone else from your team should handle things for now. I'm worried about your health." quickly shook my head As the team leader, if we switched to someone else, it would take them longer to understand what had already been done so far, which would delay the project even more. Zack looked atand asked, "If you work extra hours, how long will it take to finish?" I replied, "With the team's helpor Emma's, we could finish in a week, including the final checks. But Emma's really busy right now with other projects, like the Pope family restaurant design" Zack looked atand said, "If that's the case, handle it myself." "Really? You?" 1 asked, surprised I read then that Zack and were from the smajor
"Yeah, after all, I am your senior, Zack said with a playful smile Though might be a bit out of practice, Ms.
Green, could you helpout?" 1 He winked at me, and I couldn't help but smile back. Zack had always been impressive, he was a big deal back in school.
To speed spourck, Twent straight to the Brightwave Group designo M department to work extra hours, so Zack could helpeasily. We worked all night long. After the unal bedtime, I actually felt more awake and focused Chapter 73 BringZack looked at the clock and said. "Eva, it's late. You should go hand rest" "Just a bit more." I said. "I'm almost done with this last part Just then, someone grabbed my hand
Leonard's annoyed voice broke the silence. "What's going on here?m Someone's working hard. Are you thinking of switching to Brightwave Group?"
