- Chapter 321
- Just as Shirley gently pressed her fingertip on Kingston’s head, Leah rushed in. She moved so fast that even Jeff could not stop her. Almost at the speed of light, she grabbed Shirley’s hand, forcefully pulled her away, and blocked everyone else from approaching,
- Jeff let go of the wheelchair and supported his wife, who had been pushed several steps back. His usually gentle glabella
- turned cold.
- “What are you doing to my brother? Mr. Grant, my brother got into a car accident because of you and is now in a coma. What else do you want to do to him?” Leah said, standing before Kingston’s hospital bed, her usual refined demeanor completely gone in agitation.
- She was intensely emotional; her screams and panic were far beyond what mere concern would cause. Joycelyn immediately glanced at Leah’s ring finger, but it was too far to see clearly. Then, Joycelyn walked over to Ellison and said, “We’re here to visit Dr. Mason,”
- “If you’re merely visiting, why must you beat up all the bodyguards outside?” Leah’s voice grew sharper.
- Looking at the people before her eyes, apart from anger, there was fear, especially toward Joycelyn. The hatred and resentment in her eyes were more obvious than ever. This woman’s search for her family had forced her into a dead end.
- If anyone found out Kingston’s coma was because she was controlling him, then everything she had would be gone. Leah had even wanted to kill them all.
- “Mr. Grant, Kingston got into a car accident because of you and still hasn’t woken up. Isn’t this too much for you to do this to him?” Frank said angrily while entering the ward.
- “Dad! It’s all my fault. I thought protecting Kingston like this would help him rest well and recover. I never expected him to be disturbed still,” Leah complained to her father, wiping away her tears and the cold sweat on her forehead.
- Fiona also came in. Her swollen eyes were filled with resentment as she looked at Joycelyn, Ellison, and the others.
- “Mr. and Mrs. Mason, we didn’t mean to disturb Kingston. We’re truly concerned about him. The bodyguards outside attacked us without understanding the situation. My wife is pregnant, and I’m in a wheelchair. My sister was only trying to protect us and not cause trouble,” Ellison said, his voice clear and respectful.
- As he finished speaking, William arrived late, carrying expensive gifts in both hands. “Sorry, there’s too much stuff; I can’t bring them all at once,” William said as he walked into the ward, placing expensive supplements at the door. At a glance, they really did seem like visitors.
- “Then why was that woman getting so close to Kingston? I even suspect she’s trying to harm my brother!” Leah, seeing her parents‘ expressions soften, immediately tried to stir things up again.
- “This is my sister–in–law, Shirley. She’s an excellent doctor with experience waking up patients from husband was in a coma before, and she helped him recover.
- rative states. My
- “As she noticed Kingston’s eyelashes seemed to move and thought he might be waking up, she went over to check on him.” Seeing Shirley’s solemn expression, Joycelyn quickly spoke up to ease the tension.
- At the very least, they needed to make Kingston’s parents believe they had no ill intentions. Upon hearing this, the expression of Kingston’s parents immediately softened.
- “Really? How is my son’s condition now?” Fiona asked anxiously.
- Leah’s heart clenched, but she quickly snorted coldly and said, “Dad, Mom, we’ve been taking care of Kingston. Why should we listen to some random doctor?
- “If they really cared, why did they take so long before they came today? Where were they before?” Leah continued crying as

- Chapter 321
- she spoke.
- “My brother ended up like this because of you. You and your wife caused this mess, and in the end, an innocent bodyguard and my brother had to take the fall for you! It’s all your fault! You ruined him! Get out now!” Leah said. She was relentless, tears streaming down her face as she insisted on driving them out.
- Joycelyn and Ellison exchanged a glance before Ellison’s gaze flicked toward Sandra. “If Dr. Mason is so upset, we won’t disturb you any longer. I hope Kingston wakes up soon,” Ellison said before shifting his gaze to Leah, his dark eyes cold and piercing like shards of ice.
- Leah was still immersed in her grief and had planned to continue her accusations, but his chilling stare silenced her instantly.
- At this moment, Joycelyn stepped forward and suddenly hugged Leah. Leah was completely caught off guard, her eyes filled with surprise. She had no idea why Joycelyn was suddenly being so friendly.
- Joycelyn took Leah’s hands in hers and gently comforted her, “Dr. Mason, your brother is a wonderful person. We all admire him deeply. He will surely wake up safely; please don’t feel so sad.”
- Joycelyn was incredibly gentle. She was beautiful, especially her clear, limpid eyes, which shone like rippling autumn water, carrying a pure and soothing warmth.
- Leah clearly did not expect such a drastic change in Joycelyn’s attitude. Joycelyn lifted Leah’s hands and lightly stroked the back of her hand with her thumb, lowering her gaze to the wedding ring on Leah’s finger.
- “Grandma also misses you very much. This all happened so suddenly that she couldn’t come herself, but she asked me to pass on a message. She hopes you take care of Dr. Mason and yourself too. You are a great doctor and a great sister,” said Jocelyn, her voice warm and sincere, Leah could not detect any ulterior motives and even stopped being so hostile.
- Sandra seized the moment and discreetly retrieved a tiny surveillance camera from her pocket and attached it to the bed rail. The miniature camera was designed like a screw cap, slightly larger than a fingernail.
- “Ellison, let’s go. We shouldn’t disturb Dr. Mason from resting,” Sandra said after setting up the camera, stepping behind Ellison, and gripping the handles of his wheelchair.
- “We’ll make a move now,” Joycelyn said, let go of Leah’s hands, and left with Ellison. Jeff, holding onto Shirley, followed behind.
- At the doorway, Joycelyn and Ellison also bid farewell to Kingston’s parents. Since the earlier misunderstanding had been cleared up and the Mason couple were well–mannered, and given Ellison’s distinguished status, they changed their attitude and nodded in acknowledgment.
- The tension eased slightly. Outside, they found Edward pinned down by a tall, muscular bodyguard, his mouth tightly covered. Upon seeing them, Edward frantically mumbled in protest. It was a pitiful sight. No wonder he did not notify them of the Mason couple’s arrival.
- “Let him go,” Frank ordered the bodyguard in a deep voice. Just as he was freed, Edward immediately ran off, and at the elevator, he glared at the towering bodyguard.
- “Sandra, I’ll follow you from now on. Next time when I see him, I’ll beat him to a pulp!” Edward declared, shamelessly ‘switching loyalties. Sandra was stronger than him, and he was willing to play the sidekick.
- “You didn’t even get a chance to speak. Don’t tell me you were distracted by the pretty nurse and let your guard down?” Sandra asked skeptically.
- It was hard for Sandra not to suspect that this guy had gone to flirt with girls, so he did not notice the bodyguard attack him.
- Edward awkwardly scratched the back of his head and said, “The nurse was crying out of fear, so I went to check on her. Who knew she was with them!”
- Chapter 321
- Everyone rolled their eyes. “You’re even dumber than Leon,” Sandra scoffed.
- Leon said, “I’ve never thought I’d see the day where I’m not the dumbest in Sandra’s eyes. Thanks, Edward.”
- “Let’s head back,” Ellison said in a deep voice.
- Just as they got in the car, Sandra immediately pulled out her phone and checked the surveillance feed. “Good thing we didn’t come for nothing. The camera is working.” Sandra said seriously, looking at the phone screen.
- In the footage, the Mason couple stood by the bed, looking at Kingston with concern. They did not stay long before Leah hurriedly sent them away, with the excuse of not disturbing Kingston.
- As soon as the elderly couple left, there was movement in Kingston’s bed.
- Chapter 322
- “Ellison, is Kingston moving his eyes?” Sandra asked as she zoomed in on the screen and saw Kingston, with his eyes tightly shut, but his eyelids were visibly twitching, and even his eyelashes were trembling.
- It looked like he was about to wake up. Before Sandra could get excited, she saw Leah saying goodbye to her parents before turning around and walking to the bed. Her face immediately turned cold, her gaze chilling, so cold that it sent shivers down one’s spine.
- Perhaps the silver needle controlling Kingston had loosened a bit, and with his strong willpower, he managed to slowly open his eyes just a sliver.
- “Kingston, for your own good, you should just stay put,” Leah said, looking expressionlessly at Kingston, who was struggling to open his eyes. She reached out, her slender fingers slipping into his short hair.
- She seemed like comforting him, but in reality, she found the silver needle and pressed it in deeper. A silver needle was forcibly driven into his skull. If she applied just a little more pressure, Kingston would die.
- Leah had indeed thought about ending his life directly, but the Mason family had a prestigious medical background. If something went wrong, it would be too easy to expose.
- The momentary freedom Kingston had obtained was quickly suppressed again. His eyes shut tightly once more, making him no different from a corpse.
- “Hey! I just saw Kingston about to wake up, but after Leah touched his head, he stopped moving,” said Sandra, feeling a chill down her spine as she watched Leah’s cold and indifferent expression.
- “Let me take a look,” Ellison said.
- “I’ll send you the playback.” Sandra was so shocked that even her breathing hitched. She swallowed hard, suddenly realizing her throat was completely dry from the tension
- Sandra saved the surveillance footage and sent it to Ellison. Just as Joycelyn leaned in to watch, her phone rang. It was a call from Timothy. She immediately picked up the call and answered, “Hello, Timothy.”
- Just now, when Sandra was pushing the wheelchair, Joycelyn felt her brother walking beside her. But now, she no longer saw him. “Oh, okay,” she responded to Timothy before ending the call.
- After that, Timothy at the other end headed to the inpatient department to visit Bellina, who was hospitalized. “Sandra, my brother has something to attend to. You’ll have to drive,” Joycelyn said.
- “Alright,” Sandra responded and handed her phone to Joycelyn without hesitation.
- Joycelyn and Ellison repeatedly watched Leah’s movements. Perhaps out of nervousness, Sandra drove very fast, frequently r–in–law is pregnant. switching lanes. Ellison had no choice but to turn off his phone and shield Joycelyn. “Sandra, your > Why are you driving so fast?” he asked.
- “Ellison, my driving skills are great. Don’t worry,” Sandra said. She was indeed in control of the car, maintaining the highest speed limit in the city. But with all the lane switching, it felt like a roller coaster ride in the car.
- Joycelyn rarely saw Sandra out of control like this. She sat tightly and reassured Ellison, “It’s okay. Sandra’s driving skill is really good. Just make sure your leg doesn’t get bumped.”
- Ellison’s expression was as incredibly dark. He was silent, watching the chaotic lane switching ahead. With a cast on one leg, he now found himself in a real–life Fast & Furious scene.
- The trip that took 40 minutes to the destination only took 20 minutes to return. It was like not a single red light was encountered. When the car finally stopped, Ellison took a deep breath. He was expressionless with tension on his face. His deep brown eyes studied Sandra before asking, “Do you like that Mason guy?”

- Chapter 322
- Sandra unbuckled her seatbelt and turned around, blinking her big, innocent eyes. “Of course, but not in a romantic way. It’s admiration, just like how I admired Shirley at first. I just hope he’ll get well soon,” she said.
- If it weren’t for the absolute clarity in Sandra’s eyes, Ellison might have actually believed she had feelings for the guy.
- Joycelyn clung to Ellison’s strong arms, taking deep breaths. “We came back so fast, but it’s pointless. Shirley and the others are still on the way,” she said.
- “Did you see what else Leah did?” Sandra asked.
- “You were driving so fast. How the hell would I see anything?” Ellison said gruffly, his chiseled face still full of irritation
- Sandra playfully stuck out her tongue. She immediately got out of the car, took the wheelchair from the trunk, and then opened Ellison’s door and said, “Sorry for frightening my handsome, dashing, and charming Ellison. I’ll carry you down.”
- Sandra rolled up her sleeves and planted her feet firmly, preparing to carry Ellison.With the height of 5 feet 2 inches, she looked like she was trying to shake a giant tree, Ellison, who was nearly 6 feet tall.
- Joycelyn laughed so hard that she was almost tearing up. ‘What a clown!‘ she thought.
- Ellison’s deep brown eyes shot Sandra a freezing glare. His face was like ice as he gritted his teeth and said, “Get lost!”
- Sandra pouted and responded, “Hmph, jerk!” Then, she ruthlessly slammed the car door shut.
- Ellison was stunned. This brat is getting out of control!‘ he thought.
- Sandra then walked over to Joycelyn’s side, acting like a lady as she opened the car door for her. “Please step out.” She even held her hand elegantly, pinky up, and slightly curtsied.
- “Thank you, Sandra,” said Joycelyn placing her hand on Sandra’s and getting out gracefully.
- After the three of them got out of the car, Jeff and Shirley also arrived. As soon as Shirley got out, Sandra pulled her along heading toward the villa, and said, “Shirley, quickly take a look!”
- She showed Shirley the surveillance playback. Shirley watched it twice, her calm expression turning serious. “I noticed something when I checked his pulse today. His pulse seems normal, but at the same time, abnormal. His consciousness seems to be forcibly sealed. It’s like…” she said.
- “Like what?” Joycelyn asked curiously.
- Shirley paused briefly, sighed, and said, “Like a living corpse.” Her words sent shivers down the spines of Joycelyn and Sandra.
- “How could this happen?” Joycelyn instinctively clutched her chest and Sandra was stunned.
- “When I touched his head earlier, I felt a thick silver needle embedded in his skull,“Shirley said. If controlled, even as a doctor, Shirley found the thought terrifying.
- “She’s a skilled traditional medicine practitioner who knows acupuncture,” Joycelyn added uneasily.
- “Does it mean he’ll wake up if we remove it?” Ellison asked in a deep voice, frowning.
- as being forcibly
- “No. Removing it forcefully could cause brain damage. The best–case scenario is a coma; the worst is brain death,” Shirley said.
- Joycelyn shuddered, covered in goosebumps. Sandra felt an ache deep in her heart as if a bloody wound had just been torn open. “She’s a doctor! How could she be so cruel? That’s her biological brother!” She felt a heart–wrenching pain with every
- beat of her heart.
- Chapter 322
- “If Leah went this far, she either wants full control of the Mason family, or Kingston isn’t her brother,” Ellison said, clasping his hands together, his emotion inexplicable. The words dropped like a bomb into the stormy lake of their emotions.

- “I think what you said might be possible, darling,” Joycelyn said, furrowed her delicate brows, and nodded heavily in agreement. Although the possibility was small, it was still a suspicion.
- Sandra bit her lower lip and began to analyze. “The Mason family is renowned for traditional medicine and runs many prestigious hospitals. The chances of making a mistake are low. I think the first possibility is highly likely. In wealthy families, people might even turn against their own blood relatives for benefits.
- “So what do we do now?” Joycelyn asked. After she spoke, everyone turned their gaze to Ellison, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
- “First, we need to ensure that Kingston is out of danger. Right now, Leah has full control in the hospital. I’ll have Grandma arrange a meeting with Mrs. Mason and show her the surveillance footage. The Mason family has no shortage of skilled doctors, Ellison said calmly.
- Joycelyn agreed with the plan and said, “Alright, let’s do that.”
- “You’ve seen the ring. Is it the one you had before?” Ellison asked Joycelyn.
- “I’ve seen the ring, but it doesn’t have the fine scratch.” Joycelyn shook her head helplessly. Although she had a strong gut feeling, the ring was indeed not the one she had previously.
- Given the situation, she also did not want to alert Leah, so she did not ask Leah to remove the ring and let her check the serial number.
- “Should I sneak into the Mason family residence at night and steal it?” Sandra suddenly lowered her voice, her bright eyes flashing mischievously as she glanced at everyone.
- Joycelyn and the others instinctively looked at Sandra in unison. It was not the best idea but it certainly was the most direct. “Sandra, take me with you. I’ll cover for you,” Edward said, rubbing his hands together excitedly. He was not particularly interested in doing good deeds, but he loved thrilling activities like this.
- After he spoke, everyone gave him an exasperated look. “If you hadn’t tried to play the good samaritan earlier, your sister- in–law wouldn’t have been pushed by that woman,” Jeff said, wanting so much to kick him.
- Edward’s bright smile instantly disappeared, and he no longer dared to say another word. “No need for such trouble. Once Kingston wakes up, everything will be resolved,” Ellison said, refusing to let Sandra take the risk.
- After all, the Mason family was a prestigious household with plenty of bodyguards, and their security systems were top–tier. Even getting close to the residence, let alone Leah, would trigger countless infrared surveillance alarms.
- “I’ll give Grandma a call,” Ellison said and took out his phone to make a call. About two hours later, Fiona finally arrived.
- Initially, she had refused to come. Her son was still in critical condition, and this matter involved Ellison. However, she could not decline an invitation from Isolde.
- When Luna led Fiona into the villa, she glanced around the living room. Instead of seeing the so–called wealthy ladies, she saw the same people she had met in the hospital earlier. Her expression immediately darkened.
- “Mrs. Grant, I respect you, so I set everything aside to come here. Are you hosting a party for me? Do you expect me to personally apologize to the people who disturbed my son?” Fiona had a smile on her face, but the anger in her eyes was
- evident.
- “Mrs. Mason, I know Kingston hasn’t woken up yet, and you’re worried. We invited you here today because of him. I have something to show you, and once you see it, you’ll understand,” Isolde said.
- Isolde stood up, took Mrs. Mason’s hand, and led her to the sofa. Fiona frowned, still wary. “What is it? What does it have to do with my son?” she asked.

- Chapter #28
- Ellison handed her a phone. Fiona hesitated but took it and pressed play. At first, de frowned in displeasure However, when she saw Leah’s expression suddenly turn sinister in the video, and how Kingston, who showed sight signs of struggle, became completely motionless after Leah touched his head, her expression changed drastically
- As an experienced doctor, Fiona immediately realized something was wrong. From the way her son’s chest had been heaving and how his eyelashes had trembled, those were clear signs of waking up Watching further. Fiona’s breath hitched, and her face ashen. “When when was this recorded? Fiona asked Ellison in a trembling voice
- “Since we weren’t allowed to visit Kingston, we were worried about his condition. When we finally saw him today, my sister- in–law, who is a doctor, noticed something was wrong and secretly recorded this joycelyn said.
- Fiona did not bother to ask how they had recorded it. Her entire focus was on Leah’s actions. She went from shock to disbelief, then to unease and deep worry.
- They were her children. Every moment she had just watched was like a knife stabbing into her heart.
- “Leah has always been close to her brother, and Kingston also adores his younger sister. Why did she do this to him?
- “She’s been by his side all this time, claiming she’s worried about him. I never imagined this is how she takes care of him, Fiona said.
- “Your entire family members are doctors. How could you not notice something was wrong?” Sandra, always impatient, furrowed her brows tightly, clenching her fists in frustration, and asked.
- A whole family of medical professionals, yet none of them have noticed anything wrong? she wondered.
- “We reviewed his reports before. Everything indeed indicated a severe coma. Leah rarely let us visit him, saying she didn’t want us to worry. She and Quentin personally took care of Kingston,” said Fiona, choking back a sob and wiping her tears.
- Joycelyn handed her a tissue. “Thank you.” Fiona expressed her gratitude. She initially intended to look at Joycelyn but her gaze was drawn to Sandra beside Joycelyn, who clenched her fists and expression intense.
- “Young lady, do you know Kingston?” Fiona finally took a closer look at Sandra and asked. Sandra dressed like a doll and her lively and mischievous demeanor was endearing.
- “Yes, I do. Dr. Mason treated my grandma and sister–in–law before, so I’ve met him,” Sandra replied.
- “Mrs. Mason, we can’t alert Leah just yet. My sister–in–law suspects that a thick needle was inserted into Kingston’s brain. Perhaps we need to discuss a proper treatment plan,” Joycelyn suggested.
- “Alright. I need to return home immediately. I’ll get to the bottom of this,” Fiona declared firmly. The situation was dire; she could not afford to delay.
- In the hospital, Leah returned to the director’s office and sat in the large chair, twirling the wedding ring on her finger absentmindedly with her fingertips.
- Ever since she swapped the rings, she loved to rub the ring, fantasizing about Ellison personally putting it on her. In her mind, she was his wife and had always been immersed in this fantasy.
- Suddenly, she recalled every detail of Joycelyn’s visit to the hospital, and her gaze fell on her wedding ring. Connecting the dots, she realized Joycelyn looked perfectly healthy, and there were no signs of blood deficiency or weakness.
- Immediately, she took off the ring and replaced it with her own from a drawer.
- Previously, at the Grant family residence, she had swapped their wedding rings and even altered the serial number in it to match the one Ellison had bought.
- Chapter 323
- But now, this ring had become a major liability. It needed to be dealt with.
- She wiped off all fingerprints, wrapped it in a tissue, and slipped it into her pocket. Changing her white coat into casual clothes, Leah changed her phone and called Ruby.
- “Ms. Wilson, it’s time for your facial treatment. Let’s meet at our usual place,” she said.
- Chapter 324
- The matter of saving Kingston was urgent. Joycelyn did not keep Shirley by her and Ellison’s side the whole time Instead she sent her to the Mason family to discuss possible solutions. Only later did she learn that Kingston’s condition was even worse than they had imagined.
- At noon, Shirley returned from the hospital and reported the situation to everyone. The once warm and cozy atmosphere in the living room grew solemn, with everyone’s brows tightly furrowed.
- “Shirley, so Dr. Mason was harmed, and then under the disguise of treatment, she used that extreme method, sticking thick needles into his brain?” Joycelyn asked with a face full of disbelief as if she were listening to a horror story.
- “No, it’s even worse. Treating a healthy person as if he’s sick is like giving mental illness medication to someone perfectly normal. A normal person would suffer neurological damage and eventually develop mental illness,” said Shirley with her calm and composed expression as ever. However, after she finished speaking, she could not help but sigh.
- Her words sent chills down everyone’s spine. “So it’s confirmed that this was Leah’s doing!” said Sandra staring at Shirley, her face equally stiff, and her mouth widened in shock.
- This sounds truly vicious. That’s a living, breathing person. Such an outstanding doctor is being cruelly tormented like this: how utterly deranged must the culprit be?‘ Sandra thought.
- “What is the Mason family going to do about this?” Joycelyn asked.
- “For the past few days, Leah has been sent out of town on a business trip. It was her husband, Quentin, who found the loophole, Shirley said.
- “Oh my god, this is unbelievable,” Joycelyn exclaimed and clung tightly to Ellison. “Thank goodness Shirley is here. Otherwise, the two of us would’ve been doomed.”The lingering fear was indescribable. Their family of three could have been wiped out.
- Sandra’s delicate face was full of resentment. She gritted her teeth in anger and said, “Luckily, Shirley reacted fast and had our own doctors intervene. As soon as Ellison got better, we transferred him to our own hospital.” Otherwise, there was no way to guard against such underhanded schemes.
- “Yes, we still have to go back to the hospital this afternoon for follow–up exams. Ellison also needs to get his cast removed. You seem to be doing well now, so don’t worry,” Shirley reassured Joycelyn.
- “Mm,” Joycelyn responded calmly. “After experiencing such trauma early on, will the baby’s future development be affected?” She asked, lifting her small face from Ellison’s embrace.
- “Our little one will grow just fine. You have to believe in our child’s resilience. Others might start strong at the finish line, but our baby is winning straight from the womb, alright?” Ellison said, putting his phone away and reaching out to pinch his little wife’s worried face.
- After a few days of rest, her face finally looked fuller again. “Are you sure your leg is ready for the cast to be removed? Don’t push yourself,” Joycelyn said.
- Ellison chuckled, his chest trembling slightly against her cheek. “It’s been almost a month. I feel like it’ll heal faster once it’s off,” he said
- Joycelyn blinked several times, felt reassured, and said, “Alright.”
- “Ellison’s recovery speed is remarkable. Joycelyn, you need to eat well and take care of yourself. Once your pregnancy is stable, we can go back home to where you grew up and have some fun,” Shirley said, smiling faintly.
- “Mm…” Joycelyn looked forward to it but more to her baby’s safe and healthy delivery.
- “Oh yes, Shirley, can you tell if my baby is a boy or a girl by taking my pulse?” Joycelyn asked, eyes suddenly lit up.
- Chapter 324
- “Yes, experienced doctors can usually determine the gender through pute diagnosis as early as two weeks. I dintre inferrit all of my grandfather’s skills, but I can tell after a month, Shirley M
- Shirley sat beside Joycelyn and placed three fingers gently on her pulse. The whole living room fell into an unaual silence. They had gone from discussing a distressed situation to waiting for Shirley’s verdier.
- About three minutes later, Shirley withdrew her hand, smiled calmly, and said, “No wonder you’re recovering so fast. It’s s daughter.”
- Just as Shirley said this, Joycelyn was overjoyed. Really? It’s a girl?” she exclaimed.
- Ellison, originally composed and serious, instinctively swallowed hard. His deep, clear voice was filled with unconcealable excitement and tremors. “Really? It’s a daughter?” he asked.
- “Yes,” Shirley said.
- Hearing Shirley’s confirmation, Ellison’s eyes were slightly teary. His brown, deep eyes brimmed with joy. Then, unable to contain himself, he shouted excitedly, “I have a daughter! We have a daughter!”
- Joycelyn was so happy that she burst into tears. “We have a baby girl! The couple hugged each other tightly in joy.
- Shirley was calm as always. With a smile, she sent a message to her husband sharing the happy news. Sandra was overjoyed and exclaimed, “Wow, I have a niece!”
- Edward tossed his phone aside, abandoning his game. He had been quiet all this time, but hearing the news, he jumped up from the couch in excitement and shouted, “Wow, I have a niece!”
- Sandra and Edward began running around the house, wildly flailing their arms in excitement.
- “Let’s go for the check–up. Today, we’ll eat whatever supplements we have,” said Joycelyn, suddenly feeling all her early pregnancy discomfort vanish. She was filled with energy.
- “Honey, we need to start decorating the princess room. Let’s use the guest room,” Joycelyn said.
- “Alright, we’ll paint it all pink. Whatever our little princess likes, we’ll buy it,” Ellison said, placing a hand over his wildly beating heart.
- be
- The joy on his well–defined face could not be concealed. ‘I was right. Sleeping on a pink bed helped conceive a girl!‘ he thought.
- “Let’s go. We’ll leave early and come home early,” Ellison said while standing up happily and striding toward the door. He did not notice anything while the others stared at him in shock as he confidently walked away.
- “Ellison, your leg has healed way too fast,” Sandra said. She had intended to push the wheelchair but realized Ellison had already walked off effortlessly.
- “Oh, I should sit down,” Ellison said. “I need to be in tip–top condition to carry my daughter in the future.” He then turned to sit in the wheelchair while Joycelyn laughed uncontrollably from behind.
- Ellison’s usual security measures had been extravagant, but today’s trip to the hospital was on another level. There were a total of four escort vehicles.
- As they left, the first two cars took different routes as a diversion, preventing them from being tailed. Aside from the white G–Wagon, the rest were all black Maybachs. The security measures were flawless.
- In the car, William was driving, while Joycelyn leaned against Ellison, still immersed in the joy of expecting a baby girl.
- “What nickname should we call our daughter? Baby, Sweetheart, or Cutie?” Just saying these adorable nicknames made her feel warm and fuzzy.
- Chapter 824
- “I think they’re all great! Ellison said, lowering his head, and kissing her face repeatedly.
- Just as they discussed nicknames, the G–Wagon carrying Sandra and Shirley was suddenly struck by a white Rolls–Royce speeding directly toward them joycelyn, in the car, could even hear the loud bang. She was started.
- Ellison’s soft, affectionate gaze quickly turned cold as he glanced at the crash behind them. “Williams, drive ahead and steer clear of the scene. Have the other vehicles at the back block the Rolls–Royce, he instructed.
- William stepped on the accelerator, speeding ahead to create space while ensuring Joycelyn and Ellison’s safety.
- “White Rolls–Royce? That looks so familiar Joycelyn instinctively placed a hand over her belly, shielding her unborn child from any harm.
- Seeing the Rolls–Royce continue ramming into the G–Wagon, she bit her lower lip worriedly and prayed in her heart, “Sandra and Shirley, please be safet
- Chapter 325
- Ellison hugged Joycelyn tightly with one hand and took out his phone with the other to quickly call someone over.
- In the white Rolls–Royce, Ruby’s cheeks were hollowed out, marred by disfiguring scars festering with pus, a far cry from her earlier days of radiant beauty as a young heiress.
- Her facial features were as terrifying as a ferocious witch’s, and her eyes were bloodshot.
- Ever since she found out two days ago that Joycelyn was Ellison’s wife, she had gone completely crazy.
- The man she had admired for ten years had married the woman she hated the most.
- Along the way, she only saw a girl in the passenger seat of the white Mercedes. Ruby was certain that it was Joycelyn. She wanted Joycelyn to die!
- The voice in her mind drove her. The car hit three times in a row. The front of the car was deformed, and her forehead was covered in blood. She was like a puppet without a soul. She retreated numbly and then hit hard.
- “Die, Joycelyn, you slut!” Ruby was mad to the extreme. She stepped on the accelerator hard with the determination to perish together.
- As Ruby roared, the car charged at the Mercedes again.
- Edward and the bodyguards‘ interception was broken through.
- Sandra looked at the intersection in front of them. If the car rushed out, it would probably hit a few times!
- “Shirley, go to the front lawn and jump out of the car. I’ll take care of it.” Sandra’s face was tense and extremely calm. “Okay.” Shirley also saw the situation. If the car was suddenly knocked out, there would be a series of car accidents.
- However, the car behind them rushed up again.
- Shirley felt that her internal organs were all jumbled up because of the inertia.
- Fortunately, the two of them were strong and calm. Sandra drove forward and pulled away. As soon as the car slowed down, Shirley pushed open the door and jumped out of the car to roll into the safe greenery.
- Behind Shirley, Ruby thought she saw a figure jump out of the car.
- Ruby turned the steering wheel violently and drove the wrecked Rolls–Royce directly in Shirley’s direction. The car rushed over the fence. It was too late for Sandra to turn around. She quickly changed gears and retreated. Shirley had just rolled into the lawn when a rock hit her lower back. It was so painful that she could not stand up. Fortunately, she was a military doctor in the war zone previously. These injuries could not destroy her strong willpower. However, before she could get up, the white Rolls–Royce changed direction and ran straight toward the protective fence.
- In the nick of time, there was a loud bang.
- With brutal force, the Mercedes slammed into the Rolls–Royce, pushing it sideways. The impact shattered a forged steel guardrail, which then pierced through the passenger–side window, striking Ruby’s major artery with lethal precision.
- Ruby’s eyes widened in disbelief. Large amounts of blood gushed out of her mouth and neck. She struggled for a while before dying. She died with grievances Chapter 325
- The two–lane road was in a mess.
- Edward’s and the bodyguard’s cars were also seriously damaged and there were some injuries on their bodies.
- The traffic police rushed over and immediately sealed the scene.
- William turned the car around and looked over.
- Sandra got out of the car, climbed over the protective fence, and helped Shirley out.
- Joycelyn got out of the car and saw that both of them were injured. Her heart ached. “Sandra, Shirley, are you alright?” Her hands were trembling in panic.
- She had seen the surveillance footage of Ellison’s car accident, and it had already traumatized her.
- Now that she encountered a car accident again, she was so afraid that she did not know how to comfort them.
- In addition, she was pregnant, so her emotions were especially sensitive.
- “I’m fine. I’m not injured.” Sandra’s face was originally solemn, but she immediately grinned when she saw how worried Joycelyn was.
- “I’m fine too. This is nothing compared to when I was in the war zone with bullets and tanks.” Shirley pressed her lower back and smiled.
- “That’s good.” Joycelyn took a deep breath. She was so worried just now that even her heart hurt.
- Ellison protected Joycelyn. His cold eyes surveyed the scene.
- William walked to the front of the white Rolls–Royce and took a look. When he saw the tragic death of Ruby inside, he frowned.
- When the traffic police carried Ruby down, William noticed the wedding ring on Ruby’s left ring finger and immediately turned around to report to Ellison, “Mr. Grant, it’s Ruby. She has the same wedding ring as Mrs. Grant.”
- Ellison looked sideways at the white Rolls–Royce. His deep eyes were terrifyingly calm, but the anger emanating from him was so clear that even Joycelyn, who was beside him, could feel it.
- The smell of blood and gasoline was too pungent. Joycelyn could not help but retch.
- “Be good and go to the car.” Ellison hugged Joycelyn and glanced at Sandra. “Are you alright?”
- “I’m fine.” Sandra nodded.
- “Go to the car with Joycelyn and wait for me.” Ellison asked Edward and the other two bodyguards to escort Joycelyn and Shirley into their car.
- Ellison slowly walked to the white Rolls–Royce and watched as the traffic police carried Ruby down and placed it on a stretcher before covering her with a white cloth.
- William spoke to the traffic police for a while before taking off Ruby’s ring. He wrapped it in a handkerchief and handed it to
- Ellison.
- Ellison glanced at the code of the inner circle and the scratches on the surface of the ring. It was the one he had bought for Joycelyn.
- He had specially chosen it. The code was on the day they registered their marriage.
- “Investigate her. Dissect her and investigate properly though she’s dead.” Ellison snorted coldly. His tone was bone–chilling.
- Chapter 325
- Looking at Ruby’s body, his eyes suddenly darkened and were filled with anger.
- After handing the ring to William, he turned around and walked toward the car.
- William said, “Let’s go to the hospital first.”
- “We’ll leave after the traffic police arrive.” Ellison got into the car and told Edward not to drive. “Your ring is on Ruby’s hand. I checked it. It’s the one I bought. The scratches on it are almost imperceptible, but if you look closely, there’s a little.”
- “So it was that crazy woman who harmed Joycelyn?” Sandra was so angry that she clenched her fists.
- “That seems to be the case at the moment, but we still need to investigate if there’s any hidden story. Let’s go to the hospital first,” Ellison said in a deep voice.
- After a while, more than ten traffic police motorbikes opened the way outside. Edward started the car and drove to the hospital.
- In the airport, Leah saw the latest notification in the waiting room.
- Knowing that idiot Ruby had become her scapegoat, she could not help but be in a good mood.
- As evening approached, Ruby’s autopsy report was sent to Ellison’s phone. He showed it to Shirley.
- Shirley scanned it and said, “The report shows that she was clearly high on something she shouldn’t have. She was in an extremely excited and crazy state.”
- Sandra asked, “Ice?”
- Shirley examined all the test results carefully before drawing her conclusion. “But the purity doesn’t seem right; it resembles more of an addictive, hallucinogenic drug. It feels like something used in hypnosis–there are many types, quite a mixture.”
- “Huh?” Joycelyn was confused.
- Coincidentally, William came to report the results of the investigation. “Ruby’s trail has been very strange recently, but she went to Leah’s beauty salon every week for treatment.”
- “It’s Leah again!” Sandra said coldly.
- “The interactions between the two were consistent and normal, like those between a doctor and a patient,” explained William. “Moreover, Leah hasn’t returned to the city yet.”
- “But Ruby did transfer 600 thousand dollars to the Mercer family’s two sons some time ago!” After hearing William’s words, they felt that the matter seemed to be enlightened. However, because of Leah’s connection, it made people feel that things were not that simple.
- Ruby was so stupid that she used her own account to transfer the money. Wasn’t that clearly telling everyone that she was the one who hired the murderer to cause the car accident?
