Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 666

"The surgery was a success. Mr. Thompson is out of danger, but he'll still need a period of rest," the doctor said, giving the family a few more instructions before leaving with the nurses.

Emma sat by the bed, holding Bennett's hand and starting to nag.

Bennett was surprisingly patient, nodding along as he listened.

"That's enough. Bennett just woke up. Spare him the useless chatter," Mr. Thompson Sr. interrupted, annoyed.

Frank noticed his father's impatience and gently tugged on Emma's arm.

Emma let Frank lead her out of the room.

Suddenly, only Mr. Thompson Sr., Tobias, and Bennett were left in the room.

Tobias helped Mr. Thompson Sr. to a seat by the bed.

"I'm sorry to have worried you," Bennett said to his grandfather.

"As long as you're awake. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger," Mr. Thompson Sr. said, patting Bennett's shoulder.

Bennett's pale face grew serious.

"I don't think what happened to me was an accident. I suspect it was an inside job."

"What do you mean?" Tobias asked sternly.

Mr. Thompson Sr. remained silent, but his eyes darkened.

Bennett wouldn't have risen to his current position in just a few years without being exceptionally capable.

During the final phase of the mission, he knew the exact number of hostiles and their positions. The bullet that hit him came from the direction of his own men.
