Tapping on his cigarette lightly, Donald said, “In a city with millions of people, how dare the powerful families show such impudence?”
Bradley didn’t dare say a thing.
“Hear my edict, transfer one hundred thousand men here!” Donald instructed.
“If the Winston family dares to cause any trouble, I will wipe out the Winston family! If the Denzel family dares to help them, I will wipe out the Denzel family! If Neil doesn’t want to care about it, I will!”
Bradley immediately bowed respectfully. “Yes, Lord Campbell!”
“You can all go back now. Speed up the progress of Lord Campbell Mountain Villa!” Donald ordered.
The soldiers wearing ancient armor in the alleyway left silently like ghosts.
Donald tidied his shirt before entering the hospital.
Outside the operating theater, Beatrice, Jennifer, and their family members were all waiting quietly.
Beatrice leaned against the wall helplessly as she stared dully at the red light outside the operating theater.
The Stern family members were scattered across the rows of seats.
The atmosphere was rather depressing.
As they saw Donald come, everyone raised their heads.
A cold glint flickered across Beatrice’s eyes. How dare you still come!
Linda stood up abruptly, pointing at Donald’s nose, and scolded angrily, “You useless trash! Have you not harmed Ysabel enough?”
Jennifer sighed, stood up, and said, “You should go back. Aunt Beatrice is not in a good mood…”
In everyone’s eyes, all this happened because of Donald!
If Ysabel hadn’t chased Donald down the stairs, this wouldn’t have happened.
“I suspect that the killer was going after you. Ysabel has always been indifferent to the world, and we have no enemies!” Beatrice gritted her teeth and said with her eyes reddened.
Donald remained expressionless while saying, “I will give you an explanation later. Right now, the most important thing is that Ysabel has to be safe and sound!”
Donald was also mad at himself.
If it weren’t for him being hit by the Jadar Stone and weakened, he would have been able to protect Ysabel.
He was in a weakened state now, and his strengths had declined.
“Explanation?” Beatrice’s tears began to flow again. “If anything happens to Ysabel, what’s the point of explaining?”
“You should just leave!” Kevin shouted.
“Go back!” Jennifer said with her eyes full of blame.
Donald lowered his head and looked at Jennifer. The two pairs of eyes met.
He could see complicated emotions in her eyes.
The gap between them had grown bigger.
As they were talking, the light outside the operating theater suddenly lit up. Hannah was the first to walk out of the operating theater, removing her mask and gloves.
Beatrice gave up arguing with Donald and quickly rushed toward Hannah. “Doctor, Doctor, how’s my daughter? Had she waken up?”
Hannah was even more cold and unfriendly than Donald. “The operation was quite a success. We have stopped the heavy bleeding, and the bullet has been removed. However, she still cannot wake up in this short period either because the bullet was coated with an ancient traditional drug or because she hit the back of her head on the ground.”
“What do you mean?” Beatrice was dumbfounded, and her eyes suddenly lost their luster.
“In other words, there is a large possibility that she may fall into a coma forever,” replied Hannah.
As Hannah finished her words, Beatrice instantly fell to the floor.
She had put all her hope onto Ysabel. If Ysabel were to fall into a coma, it would be a devastating blow to Beatrice.
“We still need to analyze the composition of this ancient traditional drug, but we won’t make it in time. If we don’t find out the ingredients in three days, it will enter the brain and destroy her cranial nerves, and we will lose our best timing to save her. By that time, she will forever be in a coma!” Hannah explained.
Beatrice knelt on the floor like she had become insane. “Doctor, I beg you, please. You have to think of a way to cure her. I can promise you anything as long as you can cure Ysabel!”
