Chapter 1464 & 1465The officer suppressed the nausea and nodded his head. Charlie was in a meeting at the office when he got the police call. Immediately after receiving the call, he dismissed the meeting and rushed to the parking lot. He drove fast. When he arrived at the police station, Grace was leaning against the wall, resting. She felt much better than before. When he saw Grace was okay, Charlie's rapid heartbeat slowed down. His heart almost jumped out of his throat when he received the call from the police a moment ago. Fortunately, Grace was OK! When they saw Charlie coming, the officers' attitudes turned mild. There was a touch of pleasing in their tone. "How is the injured woman?" Charlie asked. "She is still in the hospital." The policeman answered, "But, Mrs. Morgan seems a little off this evening." "It is strange. Since there was no alcohol in my wife's breath, she must not have been drinking. As for drugs, we never touch those things. It's a rule
Chapter 1466 & 1467"Wait!" Mckenzie raised her hand and grabbed Hailee's wrist. "Was it talking about Grace?"Hailee was listening to the news. She was so attentive that her heart was thumping and she was trembling.Grabbed by Mckenzie, Hailee almost screamed with fear. She hurriedly calmed down. "I vaguely heard that it mentioned Grace."Hearing this, Mckenzie hastily called Grace, only to find that Grace's phone was turned off.Then Mckenzie called Charlie.Charlie briefly told her what had happened.Mckenzie was shocked and hurriedly asked the driver to turn the wheel.When Hailee and Mckenzie arrived at the hospital, the victim's mother was crying and still beating Charlie.She grabbed Charlie's clothes, slamming her fist on him.Charlie was brought up by Mckenzie alone. She had never laid a finger on her son. How could she bear to see this?She asked Hailee to wheel her forward. Mckenzie pushed the middle-aged woman with a sullen face. The woman was grieving. Being p
Chapter 1468Mckenzie thought, 'Now Grace caused trouble. Charlie has to deal with it for her. She doesn't care about her man at all!'Hailee stood beside her and quietly listened.Yet her hands gripping the wheelchair were trembling slightly. She looked down at the ground.After another half hour, the door of the operating room finally opened.The doctor in the white gown took off his mask and came out."Mr. Morgan, the operation was successful, but the patient's heart rate is low and her vital signs are not stable. She's not awake yet."So she will be sent to the intensive care unit. If the patient can wake up within forty-eight hours, she will be safe. Otherwise, she will be in danger."Charlie wasn't relieved. Such a result was far from satisfactory.The patient's family was also unsatisfied, but all they could do was wait.Charlie's assistant had arranged a VIP room for the patient and another suite for her family.This surgery took a long time. When everything was done
Chapter 1469In the hospital.The effect of the sedative began to wear off slowly. Grace gradually regained consciousness, opening her eyes.Charlie rested his head on the bed, sleeping and wrinkling his handsome brow deeply.Grace also frowned. She raised her hand and subconsciously touched his forehead, trying to smooth out the wrinkles on his brow.Charlie was woken up from light sleep. He opened his eyes and asked, "You're awake? How are you feeling?""Quite well." Grace moved. "By the way, how's the person I hit last night?"She was in a daze at that time. She only remembered that she was very dizzy.All she could see was a white flash.When she bumped into the car in front of her, she was not completely unconscious. She remembered clearly that she had hit someone!"The man was slightly bruised, but the woman was seriously injured. She had an operation last night. It was successful, but she's still in a coma. If she can wake up in forty-eight hours, she'll be safe.""Wh
Chapter 1470As they went back to the ward, the police officer came over. Grace put down her glass. "Are you taking me back? Let's go."Charlie pulled her. The police officer shook his head. "I'm here to deliver the test report. We found Roofie in your vomit."Roofie?Charlie raised his eyebrows and frowned.Grace was stunned. She had never taken it."It's a kind of drug. So we suspect that the car accident may be related to this drug."Hearing this, Grace felt it was possible.Because when she was driving, she felt dizzy and dazed. She couldn't see anything."Mrs. Morgan, please try to recall any special things you ate or drank yesterday."Grace carefully thought back. She ate a lot yesterday. She couldn't remember anything special."Then we need to continue the investigation. I hope you can cooperate with us, Mrs. Morgan.""Sure!"The police officer left. Charlie asked her to think of what exactly she had eaten. Grace cocked her head, thinking carefully.She ate bread i
Chapter 1471In the hospital.Charlie and Grace were both waiting for news.Forty-eight hours were neither short nor long.Yet the forty-eight hours were particularly important because they were related to an unmarried woman's life.Grace had seldom been so silent.Gazing at her, Charlie was affected by her, stretching out his arms to hug her. "Listen to me!"Even if the worst happened, he would do everything to protect her, so she just needed to listen to him instead of thinking so much."You're domineering." Grace hid her true feelings."Yes, I'm domineering in this matter. I give you the freedom to do everything else, but forgive me. I can't bear to see you go to jail. I just can't!" Charlie said firmly.Raising her hand, Grace stroked his face. "Let's talk about it later. It hasn't come to that yet."Hailee came to the hospital and asked about the patient's ward.The receptionist asked curiously, "What's your relationship with her?""Oh, I'm her friend. I came to see h
Chapter 1472Then the girl moved her fingers slightly.Hailee felt terrified involuntarily.She knew that she should be merciless and shouldn't hesitate anymore.She bit her lip tightly and felt the pain. She made up her mind again.When she was about to pull the oxygen mask away from the girl's face, she heard footsteps.She was shocked and felt that her heart almost popped out of her chest. Her forehead was covered with sweat. She breathed heavily.She almost totally moved the oxygen mask away from the girl's face.She knew that she needed to leave here as soon as possible. She turned around anxiously.She was too anxious. When she left the ward, the key fell on the ground from her pocket.She was too panicked to notice that.As soon as she left, Charlie, Grace and the girl's mother and boyfriend walked in.When Grace got close to the bed, she felt that something was under her foot.She bent over and picked the key up. When she looked at it involuntarily, she trembled in
Chapter 1473Grace was relieved and became energetic immediately. She said, "It sounds like you can't wait to see me go to prison."Charlie said, "Finally, you're as unreasonable as before. It's great." He arched his eyebrows, walked over and hugged her.She said, "How dare you say that I'm unreasonable? If you say it again, I won't let you off easily!"He shook his head resignedly. 'When she is anxious, she keeps calm on the surface. When she is relieved, she is so happy.'Grace had been worried these days, so she had little appetite.Charlie asked his assistant to buy some food for Grace. When they returned to the ward, the assistant had bought a lot of food back.Grace was frank. She sat on the couch directly. She ate hamburgers, chips as she beckoned to Charlie, "Let's eat together."Charlie sat down and ate with her. Finally, the atmosphere became relaxing and warm.After they ate food, Grace thought of something. She put her hand in her pocket and took out the key. She s
