Richard, seeing this, said furiously, “He just woke up! Why did you have to ask him about that right now?”
“Because it’s important to our family! I have to know if our daughter was the one who did this to him! He adored his little sister!”
Meanwhile, Marie was standing secretly outside the door, and she had heard her mother ask her brother if she was the one who had harmed him.
Her heart was in her throat.
Natalie was inserting a needle into Marcus, and he managed to gasp for a breath.
“Not… not my sister!” he choked out, straining his neck as he yelled the words.
“Son, what are you saying? Are you saying your sister didn’t do it?”
But Marcus could no longer respond. His eyes closed, and the heart monitor beside the bed flatlined.
Marcus Ward… was dead.
Elaine immediately broke down, screaming, “Son! Son, what happened? You just woke up! Son! Son!”
Seeing that Marcus had stopped breathing, Marie let out a sigh of relief.
She never thought Natalie actually had the skill to wake him up.
Fortunately, she had a backup plan, and it had worked just in time.
She quickly hid herself. She still had to dispose of the evidence.
“Get him to the emergency room, now!”
Not giving up, Natalie and the staff pushed Marcus’s bed toward the ER.
Elaine and Richard collapsed in the hallway outside, completely devastated. Their son had woken up, only to be gone moments later.
Elaine was sobbing uncontrollably, and Richard wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
“He made it through once, he can make it through this, too.”
