David's words struck Margaret like a bolt of lightning. She froze on the edge of the bed.
After a long moment, reality sank in, and she began to cry.
"Oh, come on. Stop crying. If you pass out again, not even a miracle could save you."
David looked at her, his brows knitted so tightly they were practically merged.
What kind of cursed life was this?
His son was a total deadbeat, and his daughter had basically run away from home.
And then there was the daughter they had swapped for... Suzie.
She had hidden away for years, and now that she was back, she hadn't visited the Sterlings once. It was obvious she wanted nothing to do with their impoverished family.
As for his company, without Jamie Baylor's backing, it was already crumbling. Now, it was on the verge of bankruptcy.
As the saying goes, who isn't afraid of death?
Terrified by David's warning, Margaret quickly swallowed her tears, shifted her body, and leaned back against the pillows.
After a heavy round of sighing, the two began to fret over how they were going to pay the medical bills...
...
The next day.
The weekend.
Suzie had planned to accompany the kids to their video shoot.
But first thing in the morning, she received an email from Oliver Cross.
It contained a background check on the Lockwood family.
Suzie had no choice but to drop the kids off at the set, making sure Mia and the two nannies were keeping a close eye on them. Then, she drove off toward the address listed in the email.
