Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 99 Chapter 99 Watch Out Just then, Nina Watson, who was the nurse sally in charge of givinginjections, walked in "Lucy, why are you ghing an injection here? Have you submitted a notice?" "N-NI, T-L. II's just -' Lucy stumbled over her words an Zack was still gripping her wrist tightly "I saw you taking a drug from your pocket and injecting it into the bottle. Give it to me! There was a cold undertone to his voice. Hedidn't care if Lory was struggling as he reached into her pocket Unexpectedly, there really was a bottle of medicine in her pocket. When Nina took the bottle and looked at it, her expression shifted.

"Lucy, this patient in allergic to this medicine Dea't you know that?- Everyone looked at Lucy, who collapsed onto the floor and began to cry 'I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I-L..

When I saw her reaction, I could guess that someone I tried to sound gentle as 1 asked, "Lacy, right? We don't know each other, so you ha have no reason to harm me. But someone paid you to do this, right?" She nodded, but then, she shook her head with all height.

"Ms. Green, I swear I don't know anything." Tcontinued to assure her in a gentle voice, "You haven't given the oction yet, and I'm fine, so this counts as an attempt not tocontinue with the crime. If you tell us who asked you to commit the crime, you'll definitely be along "Ican also testify that you were threatened, and you didn't mean to do it at all." 1 knew that nurses without ntags were intern, so Lucy must be an intern too. If she was Intering in a small town like this, she probably didn't have high academ qualifications If this incident was exposed, no hospital would want to hire her.

She lowered her head and thought about it for a moment. Then, she took out her phone and handed it to me.

"This number addedon Whatand transferred smoney to me. First, they toldto add svitamin C your medication. The second taround, they toldto add glucose. They paidfor all that" "And for the third round, they told you to add medicine that would causeharm?" I looked at the profile picture depicting a rabbit on WhatsApp. I could tigerwho it was by now IT remembered correctly, Lily had the exact profile picture on her personal account.

She probably thought that I would be dead for sure, so she didn't even hother switching accounts.

"really just wanted to eam more money. I didn't kur that you were allergic, either.." "Nonsense. Didn't you check her medical history?" Nina seemed to be herines, and she wanted to report Lacy in the police.

I decided to stop Nina. After all, I was in one piece, and I knew that the Hammons would protect Lily, so they would definitely keep the incident under wraps. It would be better 10. prepare all the evidence and file all thecharges against Lily at once. I asked for the transaction records and screenshots of their conversation also asked Lacy to write the whole process on paper before signing and adding her fingerprint to it After that, Nina exprimanded Lucy for a while, and closed the case. Throughout the process, Zack stood silently at my bed. He only spoke up after the nurses left I nodded "You're not going to file a report? 1 nodded again.

"Why?" He sounded puzzled.

1 looked up and sighed quietly. "She's pregnant. The baby is Leonard's." Zack had nothing to say to that.

He was aware that children were extremely important for huge families like the Harmons and the Boyds He sat next to my bed, reaching out to take my hand.

I pretended to tidy my hale, hence dodging his hand.

""Eva, I'll protect you. You have nothing to beard of." "I'moot" Howered my head couldn't quite bring myself to meet his gate Twasamare of mycorrent station, so decided not to be emotionally indebted to others if I could help it.

The next day, I booked a flight hright away I finally returned to the company with Jean Lily gleed virusly atwhen she swine.

"You'respite carefree, Ms. Green, You were away on a business trip for more than two weeks, and youdon't seem to rate about other people at all." Chapter 09 Watch Out "Did my absence increase your workload somehow? I'm really sorry for that. There's quite a lot of dust on my desk, huh?" I looked at her with a fake smile.

When Leonard hurried over, he immediately stood in front ofto protect me. "Lily, what are you doing here? You should be in your office!" "Leol" Lily looked at him pitifully and then glared at me.

"She was away with another man for so long. Who knows what they'ven done out there? Also, why are you speaking up for her? You should know that T-" Her words cto an abrupt halt, but her hand was already on her belly, I was secretly amused Throughout her pregnancy, she could use it as an excuse to get off scor-free.

Sure enough, when Leonard noticed her movements, he moved his lips a little, but he didn't say anything foul after that.

Lily smiled at me. "You must be super happy to be out with Mr. Boyd, and you didn't even want to cback, right?" Leonard never liked the thought ofbeing with Zack, so now, he had a dark expression.

I glanced at Lily and then at Leonard's furious face before smiling

"oh, yes. If I return, how would you have fun at my house, right? But be careful, I heard that the first threen months are the most unstable stage of pregnancy. Watch out. It would be terrible if you accidentally killed your own child." I snapped my fingers at her belly. Then, I went upstairs straight away. "Lval" Behind me, Leonard shouted my nin fury, but my steps never faltered.

I kept telling myself that I just had to endure it for a little longer. I would be free to leave once the child was born.
