In the gloomy Greyport Hospital loomed, Jennie remained trapped in a coma, her fragile existence
confined to the sterile walls of the ICU ward.
“Doctor,” her family members anxiously implored, their voices laced with worry and desperation. “Two
days have passed, and yet Jennie shows no signs of awakening. What could be the reason?”
“That’s right! When will she open her eyes and return to us?” they pleaded, their voices. trembling with
a mix of faith and fear. “We beg Jesus to bless her with recovery.”
These past two sleepless nights had tested Grayson and his wife, Mrs. Garcia, as a relentless worry
engulfed their weary souls.
Mrs. Garcia pondered, her mind lost in the labyrinth of unanswered questions. “How could fate be so
cruel as to have our daughter stumble down the stairs? Witnessing her in this condition… it feels like
an inexplicable tragedy,” she silently lamented.
The doctor paused, inhaling a deep breath before delivering his words with sympathetic eyes. “Mr.
Garcia, Mrs. Garcia, the blood clot at the back of your daughter’s head persists, defying our hopes for a
swift resolution. We must patiently wait for its complete dissipation, as it holds the key to her
awakening,” he reported.
“Furthermore…” the doctor said as his voice trailed off, and a weighty silence filled the room.
Grayson furrowed his brow, his voice laden with anticipation and anxiety. “What’s wrong? Please tell us
the truth,” Grayson anxiously asked.
The doctor’s brow furrowed even deeper as he delivered the unsettling news, shattering their fragile
hopes. “The injuries Miss Garcia sustained are inconsistent with injuries from a mere fall. There are
indications of a deliberate strike, possibly by a blunt object.
“Upon closer examination, we found traces of ceramic shards that caused the lacerations. I urge you,
Mr. Garcia, to report this to the police immediately,” he said, emphasizing the urgency of this issue.
“What?” Grayson and his wife gasped, their voices trembling with disbelief. They exchanged worried
glances before shifting to look at their son.
Mrs. Garcia’s voice trembled with confusion and distress as she questioned, “Zachary, what really
happened to Jennie? You said she fell down the stairs, didn’t you?”
Zachary stumbled over his words, the weight of guilt bearing down on him, his forehead beaded with
sweat. “Well… um… you see,” he stammered.
Stepping forward, Roxanne assumed control of the conversation, her voice composed and steady.
“Allow me to explain. When Jennie lost her footing and fell down the stairs, she collided with a vase
near the entrance, which resulted in a minor scratch,” she interjected, her words aiming to quell the
growing storm.
Mrs. Garcia’s eyes widened at Roxanne’s revelation. “Why did you hide this information until now?” she
asked, disappointment seeping into her tone.
Roxanne calmly responded, her voice unwavering. “Amidst the chaos of that day, we were
overwhelmed with the urgency of rushing Jennie to the hospital. Hence, it slipped our minds to mention
the incident involving the vase.”
Chapter 485
After all, she had already taken a life once before. Margaret met her untimely end ather hands.
It was often said that criminals would experience their greatest fear when they committed. their
inaugural act of murder. However, with the passing of a second victim, their apprehension began to
wane.
The absence of consequences following Margaret’s demise only emboldened Roxanne, further fueling
her growing courage.
Hearing this, Zachary hurriedly interjected, his voice tinged with nervousness. “Yes. When Jennie fell
down the stairs, she accidentally brushed against the vase, which fell on her head when she landed on
the ground. At that moment, I was so focused on attending to Jennie’s injuries, and this caused me to
overlook the slashes caused by the shattered vase.”
Ultimately, Jennie’s injury was situated at the back of her head, presenting an enigma. Was it the
consequence of a mere fall, or had someone struck her intentionally? Only the authorities could shed
light on this lingering question.
Mrs. Garcia’s expression turned stern as she warned her son, “Regardless of her circumstances,
Jennie suffered her injuries at your office. If anything occurs to her, I won’t let you off.”
Zachary nodded earnestly, determination resonating in his voice. “I understand. I will remain by
Jennie’s side until she makes a full recovery. Dad, Mom, you have endured so much these past two
days. Please, go home and rest. I will handle everything here.”
“Honey, you haven’t slept for two consecutive days. Let’s head home and have a good rest. We should
not tire ourselves out,” Grayson urged as he tenderly consoled his wife.
Despite being a top–tier tycoon, Grayson greatly respected and admired his wife. After being married
for so long, there was no single scandalous news article about them.
“That’s right! Jennie won’t wake up for a while. Mom, it will be even more difficult if you fall ill too!”
Zachary insisted as he tried to send his parents away as soon as possible.
Mrs. Garcia, already weakened by her fragile health, had endured two sleepless nights, pushing her
body to its limits. Letting out a weary sigh, she sighed in agreement. “Fine! Your father and I will return
and rest. If there’s any news about Jennie, call and inform us!”
Zachary nodded repeatedly as he replied, “Yes, I will do that!”
Grayson and Mrs. Garcia exchanged a few words, finding solace in each other’s support as they
reluctantly departed from the hospital.
Once his parents were out of sight, Zachary could no longer keep up the facade.
Agonizing, he clutched his head and desperately exclaimed, “Sigh, what am I supposed to do? If
Jennie awakens and reveals the truth to our parents, how will I handle it?”
Witnessing his distress, Roxanne let out a cold snort, her skepticism evident. She rebuked, “She hasn’t
even regained consciousness yet! How can you be so certain she’ll wake up?”
Those words ignited a fire within Zachary, causing his anger to erupt instantly. “Roxanne, that’s
enough! What are you insinuating? Are you secretly hoping my sister won’t wake up?” he exclaimed in
fury.
“I never said that!” Roxanne retorted defensively.
Chapter 485
“She’s my sister! How dare you curse her like that?” Zachary questioned in a fury.
Roxanne responded sarcastically, and her tone dripped with malice, “Aren’t you the one worried about
her awakening and revealing the truth to your parents? I’m simply playing along with your words!
“Besides, with just the two of you in the family, won’t all the family assets fall into your hands if she
doesn’t wake up? Your parents dote on her so much. She’s bound to claim at significant share of your
inheritance!”
Unable to bear her words any longer, Zachary’s hand rose abruptly, delivering a resounding slap
across Roxanne’s cheek.
Realization struck Zachary, his eyes wide with the realization of Roxanne’s true malevolence. He
angrily exclaimed, pointing his finger at Roxanne, “How could I have been so blind to your true nature?
Can money ever compare to my sister’s life? Get out of sight! This marks the end between us!”
my
Clutching her stinging cheek, Roxanne’s eyes flashed with a dangerous gleam. “You think it ends here?
Hmph, nothing comes so easily.”
Zachary’s rage ignited, his bloodshot eyes filled with fury. “What do you want, then? Money? How
much? You are such an opportunist! I haven’t settled the score with you for what you did to my sister!
Don’t push your luck.”
Those words drove Roxanne into a maddened frenzy. Seizing a nearby cup of scalding hot. water, she
slammed it onto Zachary’s head with a resounding bang.
Zachary screamed in agony as the searing water scalded his skin. Blood trickled from the wound on his
head. “Ah–ow, have you lost your mind?” he cried out, his voice a mix of pain and disbelief.
Never had he expected Roxanne to dare such extreme measures.
With a chilling expression, Roxanne locked her gaze on him, her malevolence shining through.
“Zachary, if you dare to abandon me, I’ll expose the incident where you stabbed me in the back! I know
all of your secrets! We will go down together! If I can’t live happily, I won’t let you live happily, either. If
you provoke me, I will fight tooth and nail to make you face the consequences.”
Zachary’s mind went blank as he listened, shocked and fixated on Roxanne’s words.
He had never fathomed that beneath her innocent appearance, like a fragile white rabbit, she harbored
such sinister thoughts and schemes!
No wonder Bruce had been determined to break up with her.
He had previously believed Bruce had fallen out of love, but now, reflecting on it, the situation was far
from that simple.
