Samuel was stunned.
When he regained his senses, he hurried to Lewiss side. Mr. Horton, are you planning on breaking in?
Without saying a word, Lewis walked straight from the lobby to the detention center at the back, answering
with his actions.
Samuel said, You are quite bold! Surely, this isnt acceptable?
Without pausing, Lewis asked coldly, What else can I do? Can your boss wait until tomorrow?
Definitely not!
Samuel followed him. She cant last until tomorrow. There was this time when iron wasnt administered in time, and she fell into shock. We barely managed to
resuscitate her
Having said that, he got anxious and added angrily, Her illness is indeed strange. Anyone else would think were lying to them. We cant wait any longer! For her,
lets risk it!

As he spoke to himself, Lewis had already rushed toward the detention center
The prison guards blocked the entrance. This is a prison. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed in! Please leave immediately.
Lewis ignored them and made his way inside.
Having sensed something was wrong from the
entrance, Captain Lincoln followed them and drew his gun at Lewis. Mr. Horton, stop immediately, or Ill
shoot!
Lewis turned around and glanced at him, his expression calm.
Samuel was trembling with fear. Looking at the dark entrance, he felt his legs shaking.
It was so terrifying!
Seeing the two of them halt, Captain Lincoln breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew Lewiss position. The person in charge of the Horton family couldnt be arrested so lightly. He asked, Mr. Horton, what brings you here?
Just as Samuel was about to say that he was here for

Keira, Lewis stopped him. I was looking for the bathroom, but I ended up here by mistake.
Samuel was dumbfounded.
He looked at Lewis in shock, his heart sinking.
Indeed, the marriage of Keira and Lewis was like a
joke. Faced with a gun, it made sense that Lewis didnt want to risk his life.
But Samuel couldnt abandon his boss.
As Lewis turned and began to walk away, Samuel stayed where he was.
Captain Lincoln frowned at him. Mr. Morgan, arent you leaving with him?
Samuel was terrified, but he took a deep breath. Im
not
Before he could finish saying going, disaster struck!
Lewis, who was standing next to Captain Lincoln, suddenly took action. He quickly moved to the captain, grasping the latters trigger hand. The captains hand went limp involuntarily, and the gun ended up in
Lewiss hand.

Captain Lincoln tried to strike back and reclaim his gun, but the next moment, he suddenly felt an icy sensation on his forehead.
Lewis was pointing the gun at him.
Captain Lincoln was shocked.
He was completely dumbfounded!
When dealing with vicious criminals, he would never make such a mistake, but Lewis and Samuel were notable businessmen from Oceanion. They were the type who were always accompanied by bodyguards when they were out.
He never expected that Lewis would attack a police officer!
Samuel was also stunned, watching Lewis in a daze.
He was thinking that at worst, he could lie on the ground and refuse to move, forcing these people to draw blood from Keira!
But he didnt expect Lewis to resort to this!
This was against the law!
Mr. Horton, if you put down the gun now, I wont hold
yousible. Captain Lincoln held up both hands.
He was experienced and remained calm.
Lewiss voice said, Sorry, but Im desperate to save
someone.
Without waiting for Captain Lincoln to respond, he commanded those in front of him. Get out of the
way!
The few individuals at the entrance of the detention center didnt dare to stop him and hastily moved out of the way.
Holding Captain Lincoln hostage, Lewis walked straight inside.
Samuel, agape, followed behind him.
He didnt know whether to laugh or cry; he felt like had been forced to participate in a criminal act!
Now, if he said he wasnt an accomplice, these police officers certainly wouldnt believe him!
Meanwhile, Keira was still lying on her threadbare bed. She looked at the two officers entering her cell. They
were there to take her and Poppy to solitary. confinement. She turned to Holly to explain once

again. I really am anemic.
Indeed, she looked pale.
Holly hesitated once more.
At that point, Poppy collapsed onto the floor. Im the same. Oh my, Im so dizzy Im about to die Help
me!
Holly really couldnt tell who was faking it anymore.
Poppys performance was very convincing.
Keira didnt seem to be pretending either
As she hesitated, footsteps and startled exclamation from the other officers rang out outside the door!
Holly promptly turned her head, only to see Lewis holding Captain Lincoln hostage as he walked in.
His gaze quickly locked onto the jail cell where Keira was held. His eyes pierced through the iron bars and fixated on Keira herself.
Her face was as pale as a sheet, and she lay weakly on the bed, seemingly without the strength to even lift a
finger

Lewiss pupils constricted.
She always bravely stood tall, regardless of the
circumstances.
She never bowed her head.
Yet now, she couldnt even sit up due to her frailty!
Concerned, he said furiously, Youre abusing a suspect! Ill hold you responsible for this!
Holly retorted, We didnt! They fought with each other. Everything weve done is according to regulations!
Samuel, following Lewis, saw how frail Keira was, and his eyes welled up with tears. Boss, were here to h
you!
He glared at Holly. My boss is on her deathbed, and you still want to punish her? Do you even have humanity left?
Captain Lincoln scoffed. Ive never heard of a woman dying from her period. If youre pretending to be ill, at
least choose another disease to fake!
Holly took a deep breath, agonizing for them. She

committed the murder! If you didnt kill the person, well restore your innocence! Even if you dont
trust us, you should trust these officers! Why make such a fuss?
She continued earnestly. Mr. Horton, please back down. Ill plead on your behalf, and Captain Lincoln wont pursue your responsibilities, but if you really break out of prison, the consequences will be unimaginable! Keira, stop pretending to be ill!
Keira gave a bitter smile. Holly, you keep saying I dont trust you. But what about you? Do you trust me?
Holly was taken aback.
Keira says, You dont.
But Hollys eyes went red. Why dont I trust you? Its because you continuously deceived me! It happened years ago, and its happening again now! Havent you tricked me enough?
Keira didnt speak anymore.
Lewis, still holding Captain Lincoln hostage, entered the infirmary. Can you walk? Lets leave.

I can.
Keira, trembling, tried to get up from the bed but found that she just couldnt muster the strength.
Lewis immediately looked at Samuel. Come over here.
Samuel walked to his side.
Do you know how to use a gun?
.. Yes.
Lewis kept the gun pointing at Captain Lincoln while handing it to Samuel, who took over as Captain Lincolns captor.
Samuel was dumbfounded.
As he marveled, he saw Lewis walk to the bed, bend
over, and picked up Keira.
Immediately after, he turned around without hesitation and left.
Samuel, dragging Captain Lincoln with him, followed closely behind.
Holly and the rest of the officers immediately trailed
after them.

The large group created a commotion as they arrived at the hospital.
At this point, Keira was unconscious, and the doctor took her blood for an urgent test.
Holly immediately followed the doctor and instructed the other officers, Ill watch the whole process to prevent them from bribing the doctor to tamper with the blood test report!
With so many officers surrounding the hospital, all doctors were very nervous.
So, the urgent blood test results came out in ten
minutes.
Holly immediately snatched it and looked at the
numbers.
