The director wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, terrified of Drake's wrath.
Over half of the hospital's funding came from the Lowe family, and with just a single word from Drake, the director's career could be in jeopardy.
Inside the hospital room, Debra stirred back to consciousness. She half-sat on the bed, her body bruised and battered.
Drake stormed in, startling the nurse inside. "The patient is resting. You can't just..."
"Get out!" Drake growled.
The director, standing in Drake's shadow, quickly waved the nurse away. "Hurry, leave."
Recognizing Drake, the nurse turned pale and hurriedly exited the room.
Debra, frustration mingling with her weak voice, said, "I'm lying here in this condition. Can't you give me a moment of peace?"
"You need to explain what happened today."
"What? I almost died. If you want answers, go ask Miss Sharp."
"You're saying Yvonne did this?"
"She had someone crash into our car and pour gasoline on it. If it weren't for a passing vehicle, I wouldn't have been so lucky to escape. I might have ended up like Harland."
Debra shuddered at the thought of Yvonne's method. She seemed well-versed in killing and making it look like an accident.
It couldn't be her first kill, and the Sharp family's facade of respectability was crumbling fast.
Suddenly, Drake surged forward and grabbed her arm. She instinctively tried to pull away, but his grip was too tight.
