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 a cruel heart. No matter how you and Bonnie had a wonderful relationship in the past, she's the mother of your child and is pregnant with your second child.
After that, he glanced at Nikki, whose face had turned pale. "Ms. Wheeler, do you think your brother, Sean, would still protect you once I have my people retrieve the surveillance footage and play the voice recording?"
The very thought of this made Nikki break out into cold sweat.
She had indeed spotted a surveillance camera when she had entered the ward and had it covered, but she did know there were more and that they could record voices.
"Alright, then," Sean sneered. "Go get the surveillance footage! Let's see how well you'll be able to defend yourself!"
