My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 422

The doctor gently lifted Orion's shirt. When Theodore saw the body covered in cigarette burns and scars, he nearly fainted from the shock.

"Master! Master!"

"How did this happen? How could this happen?"

Theodore's expression was one of profound sorrow.

He was the famed chairman of the Lockwood Group, controlling the largest corporation in Crestwood, yet he couldn't protect his daughter-in-law, his son, and now his grandson was nearly destroyed!

"Find out who did this! I want names! I swear they'll pay dearly for this!"

It didn’t take long for the servants, bribed with money, to reveal everything.

"Sir, it's not our fault, it was all Mrs. Lockwood. She constantly insulted and abused the young master, and she used the influence of the Miller family to intimidate us. We were too scared to speak out!"

"After she heard about her husband's death, she went mad and took the young master out. We thought she just wanted to punish him, but we never expected..."

Theodore was filled with regret and rage, grinding his teeth in fury.

He had thought the marriage alliance between Lockwood and Miller was perfect, but it had led to his son’s death and his grandson’s suffering.

This was all his fault!

"Katherine, that wicked woman!"

"Sir, after taking the young master to the fire in the suburbs, Katherine booked a flight to Harborview. Should we bring her back?"

"No, no need!" He shook his head, his eyes flashing with deadly intent. "I want more than her life; I want the Miller family to pay for my son's death, for Orion's suffering!"

The faint scent of disinfectant filled the air, mingling with the soft, unfamiliar whispers surrounding Orion as he slowly opened his eyes.

He moved his fingers, seeing a white ceiling and hearing the excited calls of the doctors and nurses by his bedside, and his grandfather’s sobs outside.
