Sean didn't come home. Instead, it was Avery who rushed home.
He set everything aside and rushed home when he found out that his family was harmed.
Shana, who was about to fall asleep, quickly got up when she heard that Avery had returned.
"Avery is back!"
"Slow down, Madam Fordham. Be careful not to fall over." Olivia quickly held Shana steady.
As she said that, they heard Avery knocking on the door. "It's me, Mom."
"Come on in."
Avery pushed open the door and exchanged glances with Olivia. She greeted him, "Mr. Avery."
"You're here too, Dr. Fordham."
"That's right. Dr. Fordham is a very nice person. She's a friend that Sean brought home. I'm getting along very well with her.
Shana slowly caressed Avery's face. "You've lost weight, Avery."
Avery noticed something off. Shana was acting like she was blind. He took a look at her eyes and noticed that they looked empty. They didn't look like normal eyes at all.
"Mom, what's wrong with your eyes?"
"It's nothing. It's just that my eyesight is bad now. How have you been? Has your health improved?"
Avery felt a stab of pain in his heart. He didn't expect Shana's condition to get worse when she was resting here.
"I'm fine. I haven't come home in a long time, so I came to visit you. It's getting late. Get some rest, Mom."
"Alright. I feel more at ease with you at home."
"Madam Fordham, I won't disturb the two of you any further."
"Avery, Dr. Fordham is an important guest of ours. See to it that she gets the best hospitality we can give."
Avery was dejected. He spent so much effort investigating, but he still failed to stop the enemy's ploy.
He sat on the stairs with a defeated expression.
It was like the Fordham family was entangled in a web in the darkness. Avery blamed himself for realizing it too late. He thought everything was just an accident, so he let his guard down.
He lost a sibling, and his mother even lost her eyesight.
"Who is it? Who could it be?" Avery muttered dejectedly.
"Avery, can you get me samples of the drugs that Madam Fordham takes on a daily basis? Oh, and samples of her skincare products as well. I want to find out how she was poisoned.
"I examined her today. Her eyes still react to light, so she's not completely blind yet. There's still time to cure her.
"But first, we have to ensure she doesn't get poisoned anymore. I suspect that the culprit has control over the entire hospital. That's why you've been getting forged results.
"You need to get someone you trust to manage the hospital. Lastly, I can go to the hospital and check on Troy's injury. I might be able to help him."
