At the sight of Old Mr. Bailey’s threat, one of the nurses called for security, while Isabelle wiped her tears and stepped outside. Then, she was greeted by rows of seats that were full of people sitting on them. At the same time, she also noticed their worried faces, even though they tried hard to cling to their rational mind and waited for the doctor.
It was only Old Mr. Bailey who kept making a scene and got in the way of the doctors. Nonetheless, Isabelle couldn’t care less about that. She walked to a corner and hugged herself while leaning against the wall. At that moment, she could hear buzzing in her head, feeling her temple twitching wildly.
Not long after that, the security guards arrived and subdued Old Mr. Bailey, manhandling him as they passed by Isabelle, but she didn’t even bother to look at her father. At the same time, there were rescued patients who were escorted out of the emergency department. Some of them were transferred to the Intensive Care Unit, while the others were taken to the general ward.
All of them made it. At the sight of that, Isabelle pursed her lips and clung to a glimmer of hope deep down. After a while, the doctors came out, and one of them, who was involved in rescuing Dexter, turned out to be someone Isabelle knew. Therefore, she quickly approached the doctor, who stared at her and apologized with a faint voice. Upon hearing that, Isabelle blinked in response. “Oh, is he going to the ICU? No worries, I’ll make the payment right away.”
The doctor let out a sigh and said, “I’m sorry. We couldn’t save him. Nonetheless, he didn’t die from the injury he sustained from the traffic accident. Instead, it was something he consumed earlier that killed him—we believe it was pesticide. Anyway, we’ll need to wait for the test result for further confirmation about that.”
Isabelle was taken aback by the doctor’s answer. “Pesticide?!”
The doctor then asked her a question, “Did the victim suffer from any kind of mental illness, such as depression?” Upon pausing for a moment, the doctor added, “He came around halfway through our rescue and told us that he didn’t want to live anymore.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
