90 Daughter
The rest of the blood report was normal, but the iron level had dropped drastically to a terrifyingly low level!
Holly had never seen such poor data in a living person
before.
With the report in her hand, she walked numbly back to the ward.
The atmosphere was tense.
Many police surrounded the ward, and Samuel held onto Captain Lincoln without letting go.
On their way here, Captain Lincoln had tried countless times to escape from Samuels hold, but this unreliable-looking guy didnt give him an opportunity.
Seeing Holly approaching, Captain Lincoln said, Samuel Morgan, the medical report is out. If you continue to hold me hostage, youll no longer be forgiven. Our snipers are ready. As soon as its confirmed that the suspect isnt sick, they can
immediately kill you all! I advise you to put down your gun and surrender right now!

toward them.
He was wearing a white lab coat and looked at Samuel with a grim face. She cant remember the time, but did you forget it too?
Feeling guilty when scolded, Samuel looked at Holly. Its all because of this forensic doctor. She kept insisting that Keira was fine, even after Keira fainted!
With growing anger, he said, Do you need a person to die before agreeing that there is something wrong?
Being reproved, Holly clenched her fists, so
embarrassed that she wished she could crawl into a
hole.
She looked into the ward.
Keira was getting the drip. Her face was pale, and she
looked lifeless.
Holly felt like crying.
Why didnt she trust Keira?
She slapped herself out of anger, with tears welling up in her stubborn eyes. It was my fault.
Samuel didnt know what to say.

He hadnt expected his words to bring the young woman to tears, which also stopped him from saying any more hurtful words. He then turned to Captain Lincoln. Isnt it because you have a stereotype against rich kids? Just because some rich kids got away in past cases, does that mean all rich kids are bad people? Let me tell you this: because we are rich, we havent encountered any trouble since we were little, so we have even more principles when doing things!
Captain Lincolns mouth twitched.
Samuel felt it was not enough. Along the way, he had been sacred of Captain Lincoln snatching the gun. If that happened, he would fail to save his boss, and they would also be in danger of being thrown in jail.
Therefore, he raised his voice even more. If you hadnt refused to let her go, would we have done this? We are
all lawful citizens!
You still want to use snipers on us now? Here! Aim at
me!
He handed the gun back to Captain Lincoln, pointing at his own chest, saying, Kill me with one shot! Go ahead! Shoot! If my boss dies because of you, I dont

want to live either!
Captain Lincoln didnt know what to say.
The officers around them were all dumbfounded.
Looking at the gun in his hand, Captain Lincoln glanced at the situation in the ward, still somewhat puzzled. But how could someone be so severely anemic?
The police officer following him was also confused. Yes, her blood report was normal just yesterday, and today she suddenly got worse. In games, health bars drop gradually. Why did her health suddenly plummet, just like a character with a tiny health bar?
Samuel couldnt believe what he heard.
He twitched his mouth and was about to reprimand the two when Holly spoke. What disease does she
have?
Her voice was full of worry, and Samuel felt bad about scolding them.
Upon hearing that, Matthew, the doctor, frowned, Didnt I tell you already? She has genetic
iron-deficiency anemia. Its a rare condition. Her body

doesnt absorb any iron. She has to solely rely on drips.
Holly anxiously asked, How could she have such a condition? I havent heard about it before!
Matthew adjusted his glasses, and his nice-looking eyes were piercing behind the lenses. He calmly said, Have you heard of all the diseases in the world? Even if you dont believe it, when she became ill, didnt she have all sorts of symptoms? You didnt notice?
Holly lowered her head. Im sorry.
Matthew said, What use is your apology to me? You should apologize to the person inside.
Holly tightened her jaw and looked into the ward, but she didnt dare to go in.
She hesitated for a long time and finally just stood

outside.
Matthew had already entered the ward.
As soon as he entered, he saw Lewis standing next to
the bed.
Lewis slowly turned his head. Their eyes met, and none of them spoke for a while.

Lewiss deep gaze scanned Matthew, and he soon noticed the latters special feeling toward Keira.
He asked with a displeased tone, And you are?
Her attending doctor.
After Matthew said this, he added, And also her godbrother.
Lewiss pupils abruptly contracted.
After a while, he stood up, and extended his hand to Matthew with a smirk on his face. Hello, Godbrother.
Matthew frowned, Im her godbrother.
And mine as well, Lewis said in a light tone, but his presence was overwhelming. Were husband and wife, after all.
Husband and wife?!
Matthew stiffened suddenly.
She didnt tell you? Then I apologize to you on her behalf, Lewis said in a deep voice.
Matthew was shocked.

Keira felt that she had slept for a very long time. In her dream, she became younger, returning to the way she was when she was three years old.
She was looking out of a basement window, watching Isla running around outside in a beautiful dress, while Mrs. Olsen gently wiped off Islas sweat.
Suddenly, the door creaked open.
Poppy walked in.
Keira shivered.
Poppys vicious eyes landed on her. Following Keiras gaze, she saw the scene outside and walked over, grabbed Keiras hair, and brutally pushed her head into
a basin of water next to her.
Keira heard Poppys voice in and out of the water as if it was coming from a far-off distance.
What are you looking at?
My daughter should live like a princess, and youre only fit for a sewer! You belong in the drainage!
