Abigail was sent to the hospital in a daze, feeling like her life was coming to an end.
She was admitted directly to the ICU.
Martin also participated in the tests with the help of Simond.
In just two days, Abigail's condition was confirmed. It was indeed the seafood that was not cooked properly, carrying parasites that invaded her body.
Abigail stayed in the ICU for a week until Martin developed a particular medicine. As he injected the medicine into Abigail's body, he reassured her, "It's okay. You'll wake up soon."
Simond stood on the side, unable to help but sigh.
Abigail would have to stay in the hospital for a while longer, which was a waste of time. In fact, there was a chance she might be caught by Sean's men, leading to a fierce battle.
With these thoughts in mind, Simond left the ICU.
Back on the ship, he went straight to the kitchen, found the head chef, and slapped him across the face. "How do you cook? The seafood was not even fully cooked, and someone ended up in the ICU. I've said it before: there's a woman on this ship, so everything must be extra careful. Did I not make myself clear?"
The head chef remained silent, just bowing his head.
After venting his anger, Simond went downstairs with a stern face and told Henri, "Get ready. Sean may have already discovered us. If anything seems off, don't hold back. Kill if you must!"
Abigail had already caused too much delay; they couldn't let Sean waste any more of their time!
"Yes!" Henri nodded.
…
In fact, Sean had been informed as soon as Simond's ship neared the shore.
Given Simond's extensive experience in naval warfare and his background as a mercenary, Sean didn't dare to show himself rashly, so he had to make arrangements first. What made him angry was that he heard Abigail was seriously ill and had been admitted to the ICU. That b*stard Simond!
After nearly ten days of preparation, Sean felt it was time to take action.
Xavien held a tablet, said with a solemn face, "Everything's ready. They've let their guard down these past few days. We can make our move tonight."
"Okay." Sean nodded, then asked, "You know which ward she's in at the hospital, right?"
"Yes. I've already had someone sneak in." Xavien nodded.
In the dead of night, gunfire erupted along the coast.
The continuous gunfire made the nearby residents and fishermen take cover.
Simond's men suffered many casualties, but he didn't panic.
Abigail woke up from the shock, screaming, "Simond!"
One of the doctors pulled down his mask. "Who are you calling for?!"
Hearing Kevin's voice, Abigail was surprised. "How did you get here?!"
"I'm here to rescue you!" Kevin whispered, "Don't yell. We'll be able to leave here soon."
Sean's efforts are all in vain... Abigail voluntarily chose to go with Simond!
