Thanatos' apartment.

Thanatos squeezed the paper in his hands and threw it across the living room, I grabbed the phone laying on the table and smashed it.

"Bloody bast*rd!" He growled. "Sure enough, he's involved in this!"

Peter too a few steps away from him, he knew Thanatos wouldn't mind landing a punch on his face right now.

"How can he use such a cheap trick?"

Peter remained silent, Thanatos averted his gaze to him (Peter).

"What about McMahon? How did Jade ended up being his assistant?"

"Oh.. McMahon sold his company to an anonymous buyer.."

His (Thanatos) brows drew together in a tight frown, his fist balled and punched the table.

".... we are still yet to know how the new boss is related to Jade"

Thanatos glared at the paper he just threw across the living, then his eyes moved back to the smashed phone on the table.

"I have a hint of who this new boss might be..." Thanatos said.

Peter stared at him curiously, wondering how he would know without investigating it properly.

"Since this is Henry's plan, then he must also be related to the new boss..."

Thanatos trailed off, he frowned slightly and looked as though he's thinking about something.

"... but who the hell is this new boss? Could it be he's the mastermind behind everything?"

He paused, the frown still on his forehead.

"I know Henry just wanted the company... but what does this person wants?"

He raised his head and stared at Peter.

"Peter, look deep into this.. find out who bought McMahon's company.. he might be the one behind everything!"

"Yes, Mr O'Briens" Peter replied with a bow.

Thanatos leaned back on the sofa, he threw his head back and the breath of relief left his mouth.

"Mr O'Briens, are you going to the hospital?" Peter asked.

"Hospital?"

"Yes, sir"

He rubbed his forehead, he groaned softly.

"Why should I go to a hospital?" Thanatos questioned.

"Mrs O'Briens..."

Peter bite his tongue when Thanatos threw him a harsh glare, he quickly averted his eyes from Thanatos.

"Forget about her, you should get on with the task I assigned you"

"Yes, sir" Peter replied, he quickly left...

Few minutes after Peter's gone, Thanatos got up, he picked his car keys and headed for the door.. deciding to go to the hospital.

But he stopped halfway when his mind flashed back to Jasmine's condition, how she had almost fainted earlier.

"No, Jasmine doesn't alright, I can't just leave her by herself and go to the hospital..."

Frown lines appeared on his forehead, he seemed a little bit confused.

"... I'll just send Clark over"

He reached for his phone in his pocket, he walked towards the sofa.. perceiving himself as he walked.
