The duty doctor cleared his throat.
"It's a viral infection in the upper respiratory tract. There is some minor swelling in the throat, making it a bit difficult to breathe. We aren't seeing any signs of pneumonia yet. We just need to keep him under observation for another twenty-four hours. Once the fever breaks completely, he can be discharged."
The doctor snapped the chart shut.
"If the parents had brought him in sooner, it wouldn't have gotten this severe."
Finn's lethal gaze instantly locked onto Chloe.
"Did you deliberately delay bringing him in? Just to make sure it got bad enough to get my attention? Are you even his mother, Chloe? You are absolutely sick."
Chloe's face went completely pale.
"Don't you dare accuse me of that! I would never do that to him!"
Finn's eyes grew even colder.
"Whether I'm accusing you or not, you know exactly what you did. However, I have made a mistake."
For a fleeting second, Chloe thought he was backing down.
Until Finn delivered the final blow.
"That settlement I wired you—I'm taking it back. I can't trust you with that kind of money. You'll end up getting York killed before he even gets to see a dime of it."
Chloe completely lost it. The sound that ripped out of her throat was a desperate, ugly shriek of a cornered animal.
"That's my money! I earned that!"
Finn coldly tapped the screen of his phone.
"Not anymore."
A notification pinged on Chloe's phone. The ten million dollars had already been reversed back into Finn's accounts. She hadn't even had the chance to touch it before it vanished entirely.
Her eyes burned a furious, bloodshot red.
"Finn Fletcher, you can't do this to me! You're going to rot in hell for this!"
Finn watched her meltdown without a single ounce of pity.
