Chapter 24 Update On Her Condition
Ever since Zachary found out that Cecilia was pregnant, he had the hospital staff keep him updated on her condition.
For some reason, Nathaniel’s heart suddenly trembled.
“What’s the matter?”
“I don’t know the full details. When I went to the hospital today, I heard the doctors say that Cecilia had died.”
Those words hit Nathaniel like a bolt of lightning.
Died? How could that be possible? She had been perfectly fine just last night!
He jumped to his feet, dizziness following closely behind. “What exactly happened?”
“The doctors said Cecilia was brought in last night and died this moming despite their efforts to save her.”
Without another word, Nathaniel grabbed the suit jacket he had tossed aside and rushed out the door.
He drove straight to the hospital.
Along the way, Cecilia’s parting words from last night echoed in his ears, “Mr. Rainsworth, I want to ask you, if I died, would you be sad?”
For reasons unknown, Nathaniel suddenly found it difficult to breathe.
He yanked open the top two buttons of his shirt, but it still felt like he couldn’t get enough air.
Finally, he arrived at the hospital.
Zachary had been waiting outside for some time.
“Where is she?” Nathaniel asked, walking quickly toward him.
“The nurse said someone took her away. I checked the surveillance footage, and it was Calvin.”
It was already one in the morning by this point.
Looking somewhat weary, Zachary handed over the surveillance footage to Nathaniel.
“Last night, sometime after midnight, Cecilia was brought in. She died from excessive blood loss…”
A little after midnight.
Nathaniel remembered that it was shortly after he had left her.

What had happened during that time?
Death by excessive blood loss? He didn’t believe it.

He immediately made a call, ordering an investigation into Calvin’s whereabouts, as well as Cecilia’s.
This was destined to be a sleepless night.
Zachary paced in front of Nathaniel.
“How could someone so alive just suddenly die? What’s that deaf girl playing at now?”
Nathaniel had no patience for idle chatter. He instructed Zachary to look into the hospital’s situation and then left.
After he was gone, the hospital’s reports on Cecilia’s recent tests were compiled and handed over to Zachary,
Sitting in the chair, Zachary flipped through the documents impatiently.
Previously, all he knew was that Cecilia had attempted suicide by overdosing on medication and was hospitalized, where they discovered she was pregnant.
But now, he saw all the records pulled from other hospitals.
Progressive hearing impairment leading to deafness, frequent ear bleeding, severe depression, memory decline, infertility….
Her cause of death was long–term depression, overconsumption of sleeping pills leading to mental disarray, and self–inflicted wrist slashing, resulting in death from excessive blood loss.
The more Zachary read, the more disturbing it became.
The hospital director, who was standing beside him, couldn’t help but sigh.
“Such a wonderful girl. She’s so young. How did she endure so much suffering?, she saved Mr. Zachary your life four years ago. You have to help her now.”
“What did you say?” Zachary was startled, looking up at the director. “It wasn’t her who saved me. It was someone else.”
“Someone else?” The director was puzzled. “I remember it very clearly. It was this young lady who saved you. She got a long cut on her arm from glass while trying to help. Look at these photos.”
