She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor-Chapter 286: The Mole

Waylon Lewis felt a hint of bitterness in his heart.

"Rest for now," Waylon Lewis said softly, comforting her.

Hope Williams’ brow furrowed with worry, looking at Waylon Lewis, "Don’t you believe me?"

"How can we be sure it wasn’t him?" Waylon Lewis sighed deeply, looking at her and asking.

He had investigated that year’s incident; only Liam Cloud and his subordinate, Wesley Ruiz, were at the scene. He had his people search everyone, but only found the gun, the murder weapon, on Liam Cloud.

So, who else could it be but him? He was temperamental and ruthless in his actions, heartlessly killing people—everyone avoided him as a highly dangerous individual.

Moreover, he had shown up uninvited; all the evidence pointed to him. What reason could there be to believe in him?

Seeing that he didn’t believe her, Hope Williams struggled to sit up urgently.

Waylon Lewis quickly supported her shoulders, "Don’t move, be careful with your wound."

Hope Williams didn’t have much strength right now, and her voice was very weak, but there were some things she had to tell Waylon Lewis, so she continued.

"Liam Cloud may seem bad, but he’s not wicked at heart. He definitely wouldn’t kill someone for no reason. I’ve asked him, and he said he didn’t do it. He also had something to say at that time but was interrupted, so I think he might know something," Hope Williams said, her brow furrowed with concern and sincere eyes.

Waylon Lewis looked at her with deep and profound eyes.

Hope Williams pressed her lips together, "I know it’s hard to convince anyone just by what I’m saying. Without evidence, let’s not talk about this for now, but please, considering he saved me and Luke and Willow in Country Y, can you save him just this once? Even if it’s just to repay..."

"Mmm," Waylon Lewis agreed.

Seeing his agreement, Hope Williams finally exhaled in relief.

"Also, the people today weren’t from the Lewis Family. Their targets were not only Liam Cloud, but also me... They clearly wanted me dead.

But they were wearing Lewis Family uniforms, using Lewis Family weapons. How did they get them? This is a problem. I suspect there is an inside traitor in the Lewis Family, which is why those people could get ahold of the uniforms and firearms."

These were Hope Williams’ analyses.

"An inner traitor?" Waylon Lewis’s cold eyes narrowed slightly.

"Mmm, this traitor is definitely trouble for the Lewis Family, but the main thing is to find this traitor first."

Waylon Lewis’s eyes were chillingly cold, "I understand. I will handle this matter. You need to rest well and not worry about other things for now. You’re carrying a baby now; you need to take extra care of yourself."

"What did you say?" Hope Williams’ beautiful eyes brightened with surprise, looking at Waylon Lewis, "I’m pregnant?"

"Mmm, the doctor said about six weeks," Waylon Lewis said, looking at her with tender eyes.

"What about the baby? Could it be affected? How is the baby?" Hope Williams shuddered at the memory and also remembered the sharp pain in her lower abdomen at that time.

"Don’t worry, the baby is fine in your belly."

Hope Williams was both shocked and overjoyed. Her eyes blinked, and she slowly lifted her hand to her stomach, gently stroking it.

"That’s good, that’s good," Hope Williams whispered, her eyes starting to redden uncontrollably.

She was okay, and the baby was okay, but Aaron Ruiz...

The girl who had protected her had left her life behind forever.

Hope Williams closed her eyes tightly as tears slipped from the corners of her eyes.

She truly owed Liam Cloud and the others far too much.

"Mommy, why are you crying? Aren’t you happy about the baby?" Luke blinked, looking at Hope Williams sympathetically, while Willow gave her a tissue to wipe her tears.

"What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Waylon Lewis asked in panic, standing up and taking Hope Williams’ hand.

All three of them looked at her with unified concern.

Hope Williams shook her head slightly, her nose still tingling and tears falling uncontrollably, "I’m fine. I want to be alone for a bit. Luke, Willow, can you go back with daddy first, please?"

Luke and Willow looked at Hope Williams then at Waylon Lewis; they wanted to stay and accompany their mommy.

Waylon Lewis furrowed his brows too, his heart aching with guilt as he looked at her. He sighed, bent down, and kissed her on the forehead. "Alright, then you have a good sleep, and I’ll take the two of them home first."

"Okay," Hope Williams murmured softly and closed her eyes.

Waylon Lewis took a deep look at Hope Williams and, with Luke and Willow in tow, stepped out.

"Daddy, Mommy seems very sad," Luke and Willow were worried about Hope Williams.

Waylon Lewis also noticed that Hope Williams’s emotions were clearly off; she loved children and should have been happy having the baby, but Waylon didn’t see any joy in her eyes.

"She is just tired, she’ll be fine after some rest. I’ll take you home first, and come back to check on her later," Waylon reassured Luke and Willow.

"Alright then."

...

In the old man’s hospital room, Isaiah Lewis was standing before Elder Lewis, seeking recognition for his achievements.

"Dad, I’ve caught the murderer who killed Jayden all those years ago."

Listening to Isaiah’s words, the deep-set eyes of Elder Lewis narrowed, "What happened?"

Isaiah recounted how he had come to know of Liam Cloud’s whereabouts, and how he captured Liam Cloud, of course, tailoring the truth, and he certainly couldn’t mention the cooperation with the Fuller Family.

"Right now, I have him locked up, but he’s stubborn and won’t admit to what he did all those years ago, no matter what," Isaiah said, constantly gauging Elder Lewis’s facial expressions.

Elder Lewis’s face showed no emotion, his pursed lips were a clear indicator of his anger.

The death of Jayden Lewis was undoubtedly a sore point for Elder Lewis.

Having waited so many years to catch the murderer, his eyes were filled with vengeance, and naturally, Elder Lewis would not let Liam Cloud off the hook.

"Dad, what do you think we should do?"

"You decide, but we must avenge Jayden," Elder Lewis’s intentions were clear.

Isaiah immediately understood, "Understood, Dad."

Isaiah’s eyes shifted as he leaned forward and said, "Then Dad, can this be considered as my redemptive act? We’ve already been punished for the past mistakes, can we return to the Lewis Family? We truly realize our errors, and we will never repeat them. I have already taught Amelia a lesson; she knows she was wrong too, especially since she was already beaten so badly at that time..."

Elder Lewis glanced at him.

"Alright, it’s good you know you were wrong. If there’s a next time, I won’t be lenient," Elder Lewis said gravely.

The wily glint in Isaiah’s eyes flickered, and he quickly nodded, bowing repeatedly in agreement, "I understand, Dad, it definitely won’t happen again."

"Good, you may leave now."

"Yes, Dad, you take care and rest well." Isaiah Lewis walked out with a smug smile on his face.

As soon as he left the hospital room, he immediately called Old Master Fuller, "It’s done. I have to thank you for your help; without it, it wouldn’t have gone so smoothly."

Old Master Fuller laughed heartily, "Don’t mention it, I only played a minor role. The main credit goes to Mr. Lewis himself. First of all, congratulations on you rejoining the Lewis Family."

"Thanks regardless, and in the future, once I take charge of the Lewis Family, the Fuller Family will be our primary business partner."

Then Old Master Fuller laughed again, "I’ll be waiting for the day Mr. Lewis takes charge of the family, and then we’ll celebrate properly."

"Indeed, looking forward to it. Happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation."

Isaiah Lewis hung up the phone, the smugness barely hidden in his eyes. As he walked forward, he paused, spotting Thomas Hughes approaching him with two individuals, their presence exuding intimidation. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

A tremor went through Isaiah’s heart as he narrowed his eyes at them, not sure if it was guilt or something else, but he turned and walked in the opposite direction.

But then, two strong and imposing bodyguards aggressively surrounded him from behind.

Isaiah immediately recognized them as Waylon’s men, his eyes tightened as he turned back to face Thomas Hughes with a stern look, "Thomas Hughes, what is the meaning of this?"

"Isaiah Lewis, our boss wants a word with you. Please come with us," Thomas Hughes’s voice was authoritative and full of force, addressing Isaiah Lewis by his full name with no sign of respect.
