The Suspicion

Jacob felt something very strange about this whole situation, his instinct told him that this was not just a coincidence that Ron had become like that. Afterward, he called his assistant to find where the hire-men that sent Ron were. The assistant then told Jacob that they were placed in the same hospital ward if they needed to be asked later.

Jacob and his assistant then headed to the ward where they were. When they got there, most of them were still unconscious and only two people were still conscious, but their condition was much better than Ron's.

When they saw Jacob and his assistant enter their room, they subconsciously straightened their backs nervously.

"You were the one who sent my stupid little brother to the hospital?" Without wasting any more time, Jacob asked one of the men directly.

"Yes, Sir!" his voice sounded stiff and polite.

"Are you from an underground Guild?" Jacob asked.

"No, we are just freelancers" he answered.
