CHAPTER 411 THE CLOSE RELATIVE HE MISSED THE MOST

The figure moved slowly towards Caroline.

Rebecca held the belt in the air, looking ferociously at Caroline.

When Rebecca found her pockets empty outside the room just now, she was suddenly thrown into a

panic. Then she opened the door, only to see Caroline sitting on the floor in terror and facing her

phone’s direction. She realized in an instant that her secret might have been given away.

After that, Rebecca checked her call records and found a call lasting for one second that was made a

minute ago.

Now, Rebecca was totally aware that her own daughter had talked to the mysterious man, so she lost

her reason and got a wild idea: to kill her own daughter.

"Don’t blame me, Caroline. Blame yourself for having answered that call!" Rebecca thought to herself.

The next moment, she slipped the belt around Caroline’s neck without hesitation.

She was strangling her own daughter!

To save her own skin!

Bang!

Just at this moment, the door was pushed open. A tall nurse wearing a white mask came in with a lofty

air.

Rebecca shivered with fear and took away the belt around Caroline’s neck.

Meanwhile, Caroline heard the noise and looked back as well, her eyes popping as she saw the one

standing behind her was Rebecca.

"Mom, what were you doing?"

"I… I just wanted to ask if you’re tired. You can get some rest while I look after him tonight." Rebecca

broke out into a cold sweat.

Caroline, however, caught a glimpse of what Rebecca’s hands were holding behind her back.

Suddenly, she realized something, her eyes widening. She drew back subconsciously to keep a

distance from Rebecca, standing defensively beside William.

"Don’t bother. I’m not tired. You can get some rest, mom!"

Rebecca sat back on the sofa gloomily, her eyes full of bitterness. She could nothing but vent her anger

on the nurse just coming in.

"Do you have to come when it’s so late? You’re disturbing us!"

If the nurse hadn’t broken in, Caroline would have been strangled!

The nurse threw a faint look at Rebecca and picked up a syringe. "Time for injection."

The nurse didn’t leave until she injected vitamins into William’s body.

Out of the ward, the nurse took out her phone and made a phone call, reporting in a respectful tone,

"My lord, as you expected, there’s something wrong with Rebecca! She intended to strangle Caroline

just now.

Neither Rebecca nor Caroline realized that the tall nurse was actually Nadine.

"T see," Leo said in a flat voice on the other end of the line. "Look into Rebecca’s background. Check

who has she met recently,

and her cash flow. I want to know everything about her! Besides, where is Luna now?"

“She'll arrive at the hospital in ten minutes, but she finds the job kind of boring."

Leo growled, “Tell her, my people have to obey my orders without question!"

"Yes!"

Now that Caroline had answered that call, Rebecca and Caroline ignored each other like strangers in

the ward.

However, both of them were on pins and needles.

Since her secret was revealed, Rebecca knew Caroline must be suspecting her, even if she had no

idea what the mysterious

man had told Caroline in that call.

If Caroline didn't call the police, everything would be all right, but if she did, Rebecca was doomed.

“No! I have to kill her!" Fidgeting, Rebecca fixed her eyes on the floor, looking sullen.

Meanwhile, Caroline was already aware that her own mother intended to kill her. In addition, she just

answered a call from a

stranger number. In other words, Rebecca was his accomplice.

Caroline turned pale at that thought.

Rat-a-tat...

Just at this moment, the door was opened again. A teenage girl came in with a carton of yogurt in her

hands. She cast a look

at Rebecca and Caroline and said reluctantly, "My name is Luna. My master sent me here to watch

you. Be careful, and don’t

play tricks with me. Otherwise, you wouldn’t like what my babies do to you."

Luna displayed a fat caterpillar on her palm to Rebecca and Caroline, who turned pale and held their

breath.

The two got scared not only because of the caterpillar, but more of Luna’s words. Each of them knew

something the other

wanted to keep secret, but Luna told them carelessly that both of them were on her watch list, so they

stayed quiet, afraid of

elie Ma eartolocoh Toh

Luna, nevertheless, sat down on a small stool as she finished speaking, feeling bitter about being

assigned to such a boring

afe)on

Days had passed by. Both Caroline and Rebecca had stayed in hospital, but William had showed no

signs of awakening.

During this period, the doctor had come several times. He couldn’t explain this phenomenon, but could

only treat William as a

special case.

At the same time, Lydia had rested for a few days at home due to her poor health, but in the

meanwhile, something happened

to Atlas Beauty.

Irene rushed into Leo’s office in high heels.

“Mr. Cohen, something's wrong."

Since Lydia was at home, while Leo was relatively inexperienced, Irene was taking charge of the

business for the time being.

“The Lawson Group just announced that they would also get into the luxury industry. The series of

products they have launched are almost the same with ours. They even share the same formulas and

manufacturers with us."

Cool as a cucumber, Leo narrowed his eyes. "Did you look into it?"

Irene passed a file to Leo. "This is the recent staff changes of the Lawson Group. A new senior

executive just joined them."

Leo took the file and looked through the names, but suddenly, his eyes were fixed on a name.

“Sophia Walsh actually joined the Lawson Group..."

Irene hissed through clenched teeth, "She also took part in the research and development of our

products back then, but now,

she reveals our secrets to the Lawson Group. How nasty!" Original from .

Leo hesitated for a while before he dialed a number reluctantly.

“What made you call me?" An attractive female voice came from the other end of the line. Her voice

sounded elegant and lazy,

but also registered a hint of surprise.

“I just want to ask you one question, Kate," Leo said in a low voice. "Are we going to be enemies?"

Kate remained silent for a while before she replied faintly, "We have always been, since you ditched me

on our wedding night."

Beep beep —

Kate hung up, while Leo stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a sullen face.

William’s body had recovered as days passed by, but he still showed no signs of waking up.

Plunged into anxiety, Caroline asked Leo and Lydia to come to the hospital.

"It’s been a long time, but why hasn’t my father come round"

Her eyes red, Caroline stared tearfully at the unconscious William, while Leo said nothing.

Medical saint came up, hesitated for a moment and said suddenly, "Remember the condition I told you

before? He must be woken up by the close relative he misses the most!"

Caroline stood up immediately and said, teary-eyed, "I’ve looked after him for days, and talked to him

from time to time, but he just wouldn't come round!"

“Then there’s only one possibility." Medical saint cast a deep look at Caroline. “You’re not the close

relative he misses the most".
