    Chapter 168


    Celeste pursed her lips, “Stop talking nonsense, let him answer the phone”


    “Would I lie to you? If you don’t believe me, call him. He’s unconscious right now, how can he answer?


    Those two guysst night were crazy, holding knives and being unstoppable! If the police hadn’t arrived


    in time, he’d be dead! I’ve never seen such a bloody scene”


    Celeste started to panic, because she had passed outst night and had no idea what happened. But


    when she woke up in the morning, she had indeed noticed a few brownish-red spots on her sleeve,


    which she had thought were coffee stains. Could it be blood?


    “You’d better get over here, I’m really worried that he can’t make it.”


    The call ended at that point


    When Celeste tried calling back, the line was busy And Liam’s phone was still off


    She felt her heart tighten.


    Trisha called her from inside the store. Celeste snapped out of it, went in to pay, and turned to Trisha,


    “Something happened at home, I need to go back. You take your time, we’ll talkter”


    Seeing how pale Celeste looked, Trisha quickly asked, “What happened? Is it serious? Do you need


    me to go with you?”


    Celeste waved her off, I’ll tell youter”


    After that, she hailed a cab and rushed to the hospital.


    Her phone rang again on the way. Thinking it was Nics, she checked, but it was Shawn, which


    immediately made her frown.


    Her patience was already running thin, so she put her phone on silent and ignored the constant


    vibrating.


    When she arrived at the hospital, she ran into Skyler and Kaylee Reed, as well as Shawn from the


    Campbell family.


    Before Celeste could figure out why these three were at the hospital together, Kaylee rushed up,


    demanding. “Where’s my brother? How’s my brother?” Celeste pursed her lips, “I don’t know, I just got


    here”


    At this, Kaylee got angry. “What? Was my brother alone in the hospitalst night? Where did you go?


    How did he get hurt? He didn’te home all night, and you didn’t even bother to call and ask? When


    the Campbell family needs his help, you remember him, but now that he’s in trouble, where are you?”


    Upon hearing this, Shawn felt ufortable, “What do you mean? Liam is my son-inw. How could I


    not care about him when I gave my daughter to him?”


    “Care?” Kaylee sneered, “You must be hoping something bad happens to him, right? So your daughter


    could inherit his property. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. If anything happens to him, you


    can forget about getting a dime from the Reed family!”


    Shawn was furious, but seeing Skyler not saying anything, he had to grit his teeth and say, “Madam,


    now is not the time for me. The most important thing is Liam’s condition.”


    Skyler shot him a cold re, then turned to Kaylee, “Enough. Let’s go see your brother first.”


    So they all took the elevator to the seventh floor and went to room 709.


    Just as they were about to push open the door, the nurse on duty stopped them.


    “What are you trying to do?”


    Celeste said. “We’re the family of the patient in room 709. Is he getting better?”


    “You’re the family? The nurse looked them over and said indifferently. “You’rete. He’s gone.”

    Celeste’s heart tightened, ‘Gone what do you mean?”


    “He’s dead, probably about 10 minutes ago. If you’d been a littleter, he’d have been sent straight to


    the morgue.”
