Chapter 454
Lea was stimned and did not say <b>anything </b>else.
Jonah said, “Lea, I do feel emotional when I see her. It’s because I <b>hate </b>myself. I <b>actually </b>risked my life to protect her when I <b>saw </b>that she <b>was </b>in danger. If it were you, you would be able to treat her like nothing, just like how you treated Milton, right?”
Lea sighed silently. <b>“</b>Do you know why Alfred and I can be honest with each other and not leave any doubts between us? Because we’re both <b>afraid </b>that <b>a </b>misunderstanding like that could hurt us. That it might take us further and further away from each other. We also have an unwritten agreement to trust each otherpletely”
“Absolute trust in each other?” Jonah murmured, “How!”
“I believe in Alfred no matter what, unless 1 really verify it and realize that I was blind to have trusted him in the first ce
<b>Jonah </b>suddenly trembled. His gaze <b>was </b>distant as his thoughts traveled back to the past.
When Lea entered the ward to see Celia, she <b>had </b>alreadypletely calmed down. “Lea, you don’t have to <b>visit </b><b>me </b><b>if </b>you’re <b>busy</b><b>. </b><b>I’m </b><b>fine</b>. I’ll be discharged in half a month.”
Lea observed her for <b>a </b>while and found that her mental state was indeed not bad.
To be able to do such a thing, she had to be very strong mentally. <b>Such </b>an experience did <b>not </b><b>leave </b>her with any psychological trauma.
Lea said. “Celia, don’t be so rash in the future. We’re not fighting alone. Dark Union and Riverview Hospital are together. We have our own forces and resources. We don’t have to risk our lives. It’s <b>not </b>worth it.”
“Lea” Celia looked up at her with a firm gaze. “It’s worth it. It’s worth it to risk my life for those <b>things </b>
She was willing to use her life to expose the tragedies caused by those medical giants.
She added, “I know the consequences. I’ve never wavered or regretted ir”
Lea looked at her and could not help but feel respect for her. Celia was the most righteous woman she had ever met.
“Celia<b>, </b>what was your profession in the past? Lea asked curiously.
Celia paused for a moment. She lowered her eyes and pondered for <b>a </b>moment. Then, she smiled bitterly. “If nothing <b>had </b>happened, I would be an excellentwyer now,”
“Then what are <b>your </b><b>ns </b>for the future?”
“I interviewed <b>for </b><b>a </b>prime–time news anchor in Iverton. Eve already passed. I’ll go to work after I recover” Celia smiled, full of hope for her new job and life.
Tr’s quite to your liking. I’ll be <b>around </b>if <b>you </b>need me in the future.
“Then Lea<b>, </b>I will have to thank you in advance.” <b>Celia </b><b>was </b>very <b>clear </b>about Lea’s ability.
“No problem” Even if she didn’t say it, Lea would still protect her.
The two of them chatted for <b>a </b>while. Although <b>this </b><b>was </b>the first time they <b>had </b>met, they were friends with no <b>secrets </b>to each other<b>. </b>
Finally, Lea asked again, “Is there anything else you need my help with?”
Celia was silent for a while before she said sadly. “Actually, I gave birth to a child before. It seemed to be a daughter. When I gave birth, I <b>almost </b>fell into a roma. I vaguely heard someone take the child away. All these years, I’ve been trying my best to find her, but I still don’t have any clues<b>.. </b>
At <b>this </b>point, her voice <b>was </b>so hours that she could not <b>make </b>a sound. Tears filled her eyes, and her heart ached so much that her entire body was
twitching
Lea luad been a mother before. She knew the pain of being separated from her own child. Her heart would ache so much <b>that </b>she could no breathe.
<b>“</b>Yes” Lea nodded vigorously. “T1i find a way to help you bod her”
“Thank you” Celia braved a sigh of relief, and hope instantly burned in her eyes.
Lea was the most capable person she knew. It would be more effective for Lea to help find her daughter.

Chapter 454
When Lea came out of the ward, it was alreadyte at night. RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
She stood in the dim corridor for a moment before taking out her phone and sending a message to Jonah. “Celia asked me to help her find a child. She had a daughter in the past. After giving birth, she was taken <b>away</b><b>.</b>”
On the other side, <b>Jonah </b>returned to the ward. There was no smoking in the ward. He hid in the bathroom and sat on the toilet bowl. He smoked one cigarette after another as if he <b>was </b>addicted to it and swallowed the smoke.
There were already many cigarette butts by his feet, and the small space was filled with smoke. When he realized that <b>a </b>text message hade in, Jonah flipped open his phone screen to take a look.
Then, he suddenly stood up and rushed out. Just as he <b>was </b>about to open the bathroom door, he suddenly stood rooted to the ground, not daring to go out. He was trembling. Celia could only give birth to his child.
Lea stayed in the corridor for a while and was about <b>to </b><b>leave </b>when she received a call from Charles. “Miss Berry<b>, </b>the <b>results </b>of the <b>drug </b><b>analysis </b>are out. I’ve sent them to you.”
“Alright. Thank you. Mr. Wessen. After hanging up, Lea clicked on the document and trembled.
There was also that biological virus in the medicine. In other words, this drug had also been injected into Alfred’s body.
The phone in her hand was deformed by her grip, and her eyes burned with dark red anger.
She thought, ‘So it’s <b>from </b>the Rizzo family <b>as </b>well?!
She couldn’t think of anything else and returned to the dormitory with surging emotions. It was already dark.
She
e sent a message to Alfred. [Alfred, I <b>miss </b>you. I miss you very much.]
Less than a minute after the message was sent, Alfred’s video call came. She swiped her <b>phone </b>and saw him in the video.
He was wearing a white <b>business </b>shirt and had his hairbed back. He looked cold and aloof
The moment the video call connected, his gaze softened. His maic voice said dotingly. “Baby, how much do you miss me?”
