Felicia who was sitting beside her asked anxiously, “Lynnie, will he expose you? Why don’t you take some money and lay low for the time being? If Fabian finds out it was you, he will never stop until he gets you.”
Lyna was equally nervous as she massaged her temple. “Mom, don’t worry. Although the plan has failed, no one will know it was me.”
Looking up at the ceiling, Lyna scowled, “Hannah, consider yourself lucky this time because you will not escape next.”
Inside the VIP ward, Hannah was lying in bed with her lips looking pale while Fabian was sitting beside the bed watching over her.
On the other side of the ward, Winson was also lying in bed. Beside him, Leo couldn’t hide his delight as he remarked, “It’s all thanks to Hannah. If not for her, Winson might not even be alive.”
Standing next to him, Lyna commented with an awkward expression, “That’s right. It’s all thanks to Hannah’s kindness.”
At that moment, her heart was filled with hatred for Hannah. Now that Winson was saved by Hannah’s bone marrow donation, Lyna would no longer inherit Winson’s share of the family wealth. Furthermore, her own portion might have to be shared with Hannah, causing her animosity to intensify.
Fabian snorted in his heart. Do you think everyone is as heartless as you are? Everyone knows about the scandal of how you left your wife and abandoned your daughter. But, no one expected Hannah to be that daughter of yours. However, all you care about is your son while you show no concern for your daughter who was the one who saved him.
I really don’t understand how someone like you can still be so successful.
When Fabian thought about the anesthesiologist who was bribed, he was certain that a member of the Blackwood family was behind it.
Standing up and leaving the ward, Fabian called the mysterious man. “Hello, how is it going? Did you manage to get anything out of him?”
The man agonized as he replied, “I have tried everything, including dripping blood on the floor for three hours. His face had lost all color from being terrified but he still kept mum. I stopped when I was worried he would die of shock. After that, I tried many other ways but he just refused to talk.”
Furrowing his eyebrows, Fabian didn’t expect the man to be so stubborn. He knew how cruel the mysterious man’s methods could be as he had done years of work for the Norton family. He could always make anyone within his grasp talk no matter how stubborn they were in the beginning. But this time…
“Mr. Norton, I believe he must be a fanatic of one of the prominent families. Therefore…” the mysterious man explained.
“Enough, since we can’t get anything out of him, let’s just hand him over to the police.” Fabian rubbed his temples as he ended the call.
A trained fanatic of one of the prominent families? Is the Blackwood family that powerful?
Fabian struggled with the idea. As he returned to the ward and was about to open the door, he heard Leo exclaim emotionally, “Hannah! You’re finally awake. I was so worried about you that I have been staying by both you and Winson’s side.”
That damn old fox is really good at acting. Are you trying to make Hannah feel grateful so that she thanks you?
Hannah asked in a weak voice, “How was it? Is the operation a success?”
Entering the ward, Fabian cleared his throat and replied, “It was a resounding success.”
He pointed at Winson’s bed as he spoke.
Leo laughed wryly and added, “That’s right. The operation went well and the doctor said that Winson would recover very quickly.” With that, Leo stepped aside so that he didn’t block Hannah’s view of Winson.
Hannah smiled in relief when she saw Winson lying on the bed. The only reason she acknowledged Leo was simply for Winson’s sake. If not for him, she would never involve herself in that filthy family of theirs. Now that she knew her brother would be fine, a great burden was finally lifted off her chest.
