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 sreason, Nathaniel’s heart suddenly trembled.

“What's the matter?”

“I don’t know the full details. When | went to the hospital today, | 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, | want to ask you, if |

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 stime.

“Where is she?” Nathaniel asked, walking quickly toward him.

“The nurse said someone took her away. | 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, sometafter 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.

“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

The director still vividly recalled four years ago, the young lady had arrived at the hospital covered in blood.

Back then, the director hadn't yet assumed his current position.

Little did he know the life she saved was that of the eldest son of the Sinclair family.

Because of this debt, the director had risen to his current station.

It was difficult to imagine how a young girl could bear such a serious wound without shedding a single tear, her

only concern being to save someone else.

Hearing the director mention the scar, Zachary examined the photos carefully and noticed that Cecilia's delicate,

pale arm indeed bore a long, faded scar.

His heart constricted. 2
