Divorced the Cheat Married the Fleet (Camilla and Lance) novel Chapter 394

Darwin had clearly made up his mind to get to the bottom of this, which meant Oscar could no longer play peacekeeper. He finally adopted the ruthless, authoritative stance expected of him, causing Sarah’s eyes to dart around nervously. Her uninjured fingers subtly curled into Tessa’s sleeve.

Seeing Sarah’s pitiful state, Tessa’s heart ached all over again. "Don't be afraid, Sarah. I'm right here. I won't let anyone frame you for this."

Sarah sniffled softly. "Mom, my hand is hurting so much. I..."

"It’s hurt, not amputated. You sit right there and wait. Don't even think about making an excuse to leave," Lance cut in, his voice laced with cold finality.

Whenever Sarah felt backed into a corner, she would suddenly develop an ache or a pain to escape the situation. This time, Lance had his eyes locked on her. He wasn't giving her an inch.

Sarah lowered her head, looking utterly victimized, while Tessa shot Lance a vicious glare.

Meanwhile, Calvin’s eyes were darting back and forth, his mind racing to find an angle.

The situation was muddy, but no matter how this played out, it looked terrible for the Carters. He had to seize any opportunity to pull his family out of the fire.

It was glaringly obvious that Darwin despised the Charles family's adopted daughter. If Calvin could just push the majority of the blame onto her, the Carters might actually survive this intact.

Following Oscar’s orders, the caretakers and medical staff assigned to Sarah’s floor were quickly rounded up, forming a neat line in the hospital corridor.

The hospital’s Chief Administrator had also rushed over. He stood nervously at the front of the line, sweating under the tension. "Mr. Charles, how can we assist you?"

"You are well aware that Sarah is the daughter of the Charles family," Oscar said, his tone dangerously even. "We trusted this hospital, which is why we allowed her to be treated here.

"Yet somehow, she was kidnapped right under your noses and ended up in a severe car wreck. Don't you think you owe me an explanation for this?"

The nurses and staff exchanged deeply uncomfortable glances upon hearing the accusation. The head nurse finally stepped forward, looking entirely bewildered. "We would never let that happen, Mr. Charles! We all know who Sarah is, and Madam Charles gave us strict instructions. We wouldn't dare neglect her for a second.

"I did see Sarah get into the elevator with a man today, but... she went with him completely willingly."

"Yes, exactly!" Sarah’s personal caretaker chimed in hastily. "I saw it too. A man came looking for her, and she just left with him. I even tried to stop her, but she told me she was just stepping out for some fresh air with a friend and told me to mind my own business."
