Chapter 1630
Odie's mouth hung open slightly, but he didn't say a word.
"I've replaced the solution with saline. You'll just have to endure it tonight. I know you've only had one injection; there might still be a chance to turn things around. If you don't want to end up dead here, lying flat on your back, then you better fight through this. Don't let Jonah's death be in vain." After dropping these words, James turned and left Odie's room.
Odie slumped onto the bed, scenes of the first time he met Jonah flashing through his mind, followed by how Jonah had stayed by his side through thick and thin, regardless of the consequences.
If it weren't for him, Jonah wouldn't have had to die.
Meanwhile, at the downtown hospital in the city overseas.
Sandy had been watching over Caelum in the ICU.
Outside the ICU, two bodyguards in black stood vigil by the door.
Even after the surgery was over, these two hadn't let her take a single look at her dad.
"When can I go in?"
Sandy clenched her fists, her eyes reddening.
The bodyguards stood like statues, ignoring Sandy.
"He's my daddy! I need to be with him! Move aside! Let me through!"
Sandy kept swinging her fists, but even with all her might, she couldn't harm the bodyguards at all.
"Sandy! Stop this at once!"
Not far away, Kiran walked up to Sandy, grabbing the fists she was using to hit the bodyguards, and said, "You are the Pollard family's young lady. How could you forget your status?"
After saying this, Kiran slapped one of the bodyguards across the face, his eyes cold as he spoke, "Seeing the young lady upset and you don't even think to act?"
The bodyguard, subdued by Kiran's slap, could only slap his own face repeatedly, "Mr. Angelo is right!"
Seeing his sister calm down, Kiran softly cooed, "There, there. I've avenged you. No more tears, okay?" "Bro! I want to see daddy. Can you let me in, please?"
She could only ever stand here, separated by a glass pane, watching her dad lying in the hospital bed hooked up to a ventilator. Several times she'd tried to go in but was always stopped.
Seeing Sandy's teary eyes, Kiran fell silent.
"Let the young lady in."
At Kiran's command, the bodyguard at the door frowned, "Mr. Angelo, without Mr. Reece and Ms. Leticia's orders, we can't let you through." "Mr. Reece? Ms. Leticia?"
Sandy quickly picked up on the critical information.
"He's my dad lying there. I want to see my dad. Why do they need to give permission?"
Sandy exploded in anger. Seeing Sandy's emotional state, Kiran immediately said, "This is overseas. Remember who your boss is! I'm telling you to open the door and let my sister through, and you will do just that!"
The bodyguard found himself in a difficult position, but when the bodyguard noticed Kiran subtlyCcontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
drawing a blade out of Sandy's sight, the guard finally stepped aside, saying, "Miss, please."
Seeing that she could now enter to see her daddy, Sandy hurried in.
Kiran followed closely, his gaze coldly sweeping over the bodyguards at the door, "If you speak of today's incident, you know the consequences." "Yes, Mr. Angelo."
