Chapter 2228

Author: Inked Snow
Even after injecting one tube of medicine into Bonnie's vein, Nikki felt that it was not enough. Haunted with greed, she wanted to administer another injection.

The medicine was, in fact, a poisonous substance Lucy had gotten when she was suffering the most during her illness. At that time, she wanted to end her life and requested the poison from a doctor that she was close to.

Nikki overheard the conversation between Lucy and the doctor. The doctor had said that the poison would slowly take effect once it was injected into one's body, and the person would pass away after one week. Lucy could use the one week to handle all the aftermath before she passed away.

Although Nikki did not know why Lucy did not use the two bottles of poison to take her life, she had secretly put away these substances when Lucy died, not wanting Sean to know Lucy had thought of committing suicide.

Nikki finally understood she did that just to use the poison for a day like today. She had to kill Bonnie to e

    "You got it all wrong!"Alas, Nikki's attempts of convincing Jim could not sway him whatsoever, what more in the way she stuttered in her words.Jim squinted. "Not going to fess up, are we?"The force on his grip intensified, powerful enough that he lifted her off of the floor and strong enough to potentially snap Nikki's neck if he continued!Nikki could only struggle. "I'm telling you the truth. I—I didn't lie to you! I…"Nikki, at this point, could barely force out a sentence or two compared to seconds ago. In such a helpless state, she could only put up a pitiful fight.A noisy clatter was heard when she accidentally knocked over the things on the table when she struggled. Jim's eyebrows furrowed at the noise, but despite the intensity of his grip lessening, he did not let go of Nikki.Both of them ended up in a stalemate.At that moment, Jim's assistant, Coleman, knocked on the door and entered, reporting his findings as he did."I'm here with the information you wanted t

    Nikki's taunt made Jim's eyes turn cold, and he exerted more power into his grip on her neck. "You poisoned Bonnie?"The gleam from Jim's eyes was about to devour Nikki entirely. She had never seen anyone with such a strong aura and deterrent as Jim!Despite her trembling self, however, Nikki mustered her courage to look Jim dead in the eye. "Otherwise? Do you think that I'm kind enough to really nurse her to health?"Nikki looked at Jim's face and cackled. "So you're Young Master Landry, are you? You share my brother's features, alright, but you're nothing more than a fool! With your intelligence, you're not worthy to be my brother's biological brother and not worthy to be Ms. Hamilton's biological son!"Those words had finally broken the last string that was holding Jim's sense. He glared at Nikki angrily with a killing ray from his eyes."What bullshit are you even talking about now?"The last thing he wanted to hear now was Sean and Lucy's names. However, Nikki did not care a

    This made Sean anxious beyond relief. 'What's going on? Is Bonnie even inside this ward? Is she fine? Is her baby still with her? She… Even after what happened, will she still choose to be with Jim?'Suddenly, the emergency alarm started ringing fiercely. The doctor had installed an emergency button in the ward so people could press it to alert hospital staff when an emergency occurred.The loud ringing blared across the hallway, scaring the napping guards outside the door awake. Before they could react, however, a man wearing a janitor's uniform dashed right into the ward."What happened?" Sean was the first to rush into the ward.What he did not expect to see, however, was Jim choking Nikki's neck beside Bonnie's bed instead of Bonnie, who was lying on the bed."Nikki!" Sean instantly rushed over and instinctively pushed Jim away before pulling Nikki into his arms, the woman's face already turning purple at this point. "What have you done to my sister, Jim?!"Jim stumbled backw

    The ward fell silent after everyone heard Nikki's words. It was not just Jim and his assistant who were shocked; it was hard for Sean to digest, too.'Why would Jim want to poison Bonnie?' Sean thought."Sean, you need to trust me." Sensing the disbelief in Sean's eyes, malice flashed past Nikki's eyes for a brief moment before she flung herself into Sean's chest, faking being the victim of circumstances. "Sean, I'm telling you the truth! Jim Landry poisoned Bonnie and said that if she's dead, no one will ever know that he had been together with Bonnie before."If she's dead, then you, Sean, will fall into deep misery. He's using this to take revenge on you…because Ms. Hamilton chose you and Mr. Wheeler instead of him!"Nikki's every word felt like daggers that stabbed into Sean's heart. He stared at the man before him, the man that he should call his brother.How much hatred did Jim have toward Lucy and Sean that he could bring himself to try and kill Bonnie, the woman he used to

    Sean had to remain so he could take care of Bonnie.Even if…Even if Bonnie would not get better, Sean wanted to stay by her side and accompany her to live the last few days of her life."None of you can leave!" Jim sneered as he glanced at Nikki's face maliciously. "What a good lie. You know it better than anyone else who had injected the poison into Bonnie."Nikki pursed her lips. "B—But I don't know how to give an injection!" She bit her lip and looked at Sean with a pitiful look. "Sean, you know me. When I was admitted to the hospital, I was so scared when the nurse tried to give me an injection. How can I even stomach using a needle to inject someone?"She sniffed. "But Mr. Landry is different. His adoptive mother is a renowned researcher specializing in poison, and his best friend is also a doctor. It's only normal that he knows how to."Jim squinted once Nikki finished."That's right." Sean quickly pulled Nikki behind him to shield her. "Jim, I never knew you'd have such

    Nikki was slightly startled by what Sean said. She bit her lip and grabbed Sean's arm, "Let's just drop it, Sean. Let's just go!"We don't have to see the surveillance footage or hear the voice recording. There's already solid evidence to prove Mr. Landry murdered Ms. Craig. It's useless for him to deny it! We…"She bit her lip. "Let's just leave now. We don't want to let him have the opportunity to say that Ms. Craig and he used to date, that both of us strangers conspired together to frame him."However, Sean was not convinced. "Then we should stay so when the cops come, they could prove our innocence!"He looked at Jim, proud with righteousness. "I want to see this man arrested!"Jim scoffed at what Sean said. With his arms crossed at his chest, he snidely commented, "We'll soon know if it's me or that girl in your arms who'll be arrested."Not a second later, the best medical team from the hospital rushed into the ward. Both Joshua and Jim had expressed to the higher manageme

    "Let's go, Sean."Sean furrowed his brows. "Nikki, why do you keep urging me to leave?"'Aren't they supposed to stay and watch Jim get arrested by the cops so Nikki could be proven innocent? Why does Nikki keep on wanting to leave?' Sean thought."She's afraid of being arrested, that's why," Assistant Coleman chimed in. "Mr. Wheeler, how can you not tell this when this woman is acting so obviously? She's the one who injected the poison into Ms. Craig's body. Why else would she be so afraid of the cops? Why does she keep on insisting on leaving?"Sean squinted and unconsciously let go of the hand that held Nikki's. He did not think that the people who worked for Jim could be good people, but…Assistant Coleman was making sense.If Nikki was truly innocent, why did she insist on them leaving? Why could she not wait for the cops to arrive?"I…" Nikki bit her lip and was silent for a while. Finally, unable to refrain herself, she burst into tears once more. "That's right, I'm afraid

    Jim chuckled. "Did I push the blame to your sister, or is it the other way around?"Jim glanced at Nikki's tear-stained face. "Ah, that's right. What did you say? You don't want to go to the police station to remember the memory of when you were raped, do you?"Nikki Wheeler, have you truly been taken advantage of by a man?"The words from Jim slammed Sean's heart like a sledgehammer. He lifted his head and glared at Jim angrily. "What did you say?"Filled with unadulterated rage, Sean let go of Nikki and rushed over to grab Jim by his collar, his eyes burning with fury. "You locked Bonnie in the car, and I had to go rescue her. That's how my sister got raped! You were the perpetrator in this! How dare you speak like this? Jim Landry, are you a human being at all?!"Jim narrowed his eyes and sneered, "I'm not a human being?"He looked at Nikki. "I'm sure you know very well if I was telling the truth."Jim's intense domineering gaze was too much for Nikki to handle, so she uncons

    At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure.

    The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

    It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

    Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

    When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

    Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

    This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

    Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

    Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
