Chapter 876
The Specters had never seen people like Joe and Skylar. It was as though nothing they said was of any importance. A simple order from Joe and Skylar was enough to sentence them to death.
The power imbalance was like that between kings and peasants. They were suffocated by the sheer helplessness of the situation.
Joe and Skylar were nothing like their old neighbors or friends. Back then, they traded insults. Whoever lasted the longer in the argument won.
“You’ve disrupted the peace of our patients. Just now, we heard you threatening the other patients and their families. You’re posing a threat to our hospital’s safety. Please leave the hospital now. If not, we’ll call the police immediately.” After walking over, the hea
When Jimmy and Keith saw the intimidating guards, they were too scared to continue speaking. They’d shrunk into themselves slightly after Joe showed up. Now, they were too scared to even say a word. They looked at Valencia for guidance.
Valencia paled and said, “You’ve got this wrong. She’s my daughter. We would like to get her discharged.”
He said, “Please.”

However, a voice inside her head insisted that she needed to get justice. Those devils had to be punished by the law. They destroyed her. She wouldn’t let it slide. If she did, what was the point of continuing to live? She would spend her life going through the mot
Wendy took a deep breath, gathered every fiber of courage in her body, and declared, “I’m not leaving.”

The head of security ordered, “Call the police.”
“Wait! We’re leaving now!” Valencia’s expression changed.

After they left, Wendy fainted.
Simona was terrified. She exclaimed, “Skylar W–Wendy fainted!”
“I’ll get a doctor.” Skylar immediately set out to get a doctor, but Joe stopped her. He instructed, “Stay here with them. I’ll find him.”
Skylar met Joe’s eyes. She felt like the distance between them had disappeared.
“Alright.” Wendy was doing worse than Simona. Other than the bruises on her, she was also covered in burns. It was a horrible sight. Even the nurse cou
She told Skylar about Wendy’s situation, “She probably gets beaten up often. There are fresh wounds layered on top of old wounds. She even broke a rib before, not to mention her malnutrition. I suspect that she’s a victim of human trafficking. Tho
