The IVF Secret That Shook a Dynasty novel Chapter 143

The X-ray results came back. The doctor had been right. She had two transverse process fractures in her lumbar spine.

“While the fractures aren’t severe, their location is critical. If you don’t rest properly, you’ll likely suffer from chronic back pain in the future. You were lucky. If the fractures had been worse, you could have been paralyzed from the waist down,” the doctor explained, pointing to the CT scan.

Vivica sat in her wheelchair, stunned into silence. Her own father and brother had beaten her so badly!

Joseph noticed her dazed expression and his brow tightened.

“Congratulations,” he said, his tone flat. “Your father is definitely going to prison this time. This qualifies as a serious assault, a criminal offense. He’s looking at a minimum of three years.”

Vivica looked up at him and replied with equal coolness, “Thank you so much.”

Seriously? Congratulating her when she was this injured.?

Since they were already at the hospital, they went ahead with the official injury assessment for the police report. Throughout the process, Vivica remained silent, only speaking in short, clipped sentences when the doctor asked her a question.

Joseph stood by, his expression just as dark and unreadable.

Roderic leaned in and whispered, “Boss, Ms. Lynn seems really upset.”

“No kidding.”

First abused by her husband, now beaten by her own father and brother—even a person of steel would be heartbroken, questioning everything.

“So, are we really going to send her father to prison?” Roderic asked.

“What, are you getting soft?”
