Selena received a notification from the hospital saying that Nick was in a vegetative state after falling.


    The doctor was contacting every person in Nick''s phone.


    When Selena arrived at the hospital, Beatrice was already there, crying hysterically.


    Beatrice held Nick''s phone in her hand and saw the messages Selena had sent, looking at them with resentment. "You wretch! Is it a trap set by you? You murderer! I''m going to call the police and have you arrested!" Beatrice walked briskly towards Selena, wanting to p her.


    But Selena grabbed her wrist and swiftly let go without hesitation. "Beatrice, has the test reporte out? I just wanted to discuss somepany matters with him. You know the Fair familypany is facing difficulties recently. Is there a problem with me sending those messages to him? Besides, he pursued me himself. You should know what he was thinking, right?"


    However, Beatrice couldn''t handle the blow of her son bing a vegetable, and she charged at Selena directly.


    Selena was pushed back a step, her back forcefully hitting the wall, and she felt a jolt in her chest, causing pain almost like nausea. Beatrice started punching and kicking. "You wretch! I''ll kill you! I''ll kill you, believe me!"


    With Kenny missing and her son in a vegetative state, Beatrice finally had a breakdown.


    Selena couldn''t escape from the attack of a lunatic, and her hand was soon scratched by sharp nails, leaving behind a trail of blood. Beatrice even sinisterly attempted to gouge out her eyeballs.


    "Go to hell!" Several nurses tried to pull them apart, but they couldn''t even budge them. The nurse shouted urgently, "Security! Call security, quick!"


    Soon, two tall and sturdy security guards arrived and managed to separate Beatrice from Selena. However, Selena''s hands were now covered in bloodstains, an unsightly sight. Beatrice''s nails were also stained with blood. With resentment in her eyes, Beatrice stared at Selena and even tried to kick her. "You wretched woman! I should have strangled you back then. What curse have I brought upon myself to encounter this nuisance!" Selena lowered her head and nced at the bloodstains on the back of her hand. The scratches from Beatrice''s nails were more painful and prone to infection than any knife wound.


    While Beatrice was still about to go berserk, a nurse in the distance shouted, "Mr. Fair is awake! Quick! Come quickly, Mr. Fair is awake."


    Upon hearing this, Selena no longer cared about the pain in her hand and quickly walked towards James''s ward. On the other hand, Beatrice froze in ce at the sound of those words. Selena strode into the ward and indeed saw James opening his eyes. His condition seemed to have improved significantly this time.


    The nurse carefully removed the tubes attached to him.


    James had lost a lot of weight and looked at his daughter with confusion. "Selena..."


    His voice was very low, as if it had been choked up in his chest due to not having spoken for a long time.


    Selena''s eyes turned red, and she quickly grabbed his hand. "Dad, you''ve been unconscious for a long time. How do you feel? Why did youe to the hospital in the first ce?"


    James coughed twice but couldn''t grasp the fragments of his memory. He just felt angry, as if his chest was about to explode.


    He didn''t answer and continued coughing. The doctor exined on the side, "Mr. Fair suffered severe trauma, both physically and mentally. It is rmended not to ask this question for now and let him rest well." Selena yielded and as long as he was awake, it was enough.


    James truly didn''t remember why he hade to the hospital. "I''ve been hospitalized for so long. I''m sure the affairs of thepany must have been dyed. Did Uncle Paddy call?"


    Selena lowered her eyshes. "You should focus on resting for now."


    Company matters were what James was most worried about, so he quickly asked, "Where''s my phone?"


    Selena knew she couldn''t persuade him otherwise. "Uncle Paddy passed away."


    A hint of shock shed in James''s eyes, and his cough became unusually intense. "How...how is that possible? His health has always been good."N?velDrama.Org content.


    "The conclusion drawn by the police was excessive drinking and alcohol poisoning," Selena said softly.


    "But Uncle Paddy had already quit drinking." James widened his eyes.


    "Dad, this matter can''t be investigated anymore. The police have closed the case," Selena shook her head.


    Upon hearing that someone who had been with him for so long had passed away, James couldn''t sit still and quickly tried to get out of bed, but Selena held him down. "Dad, you should still go to the hospital," Selenaforted.


    James pped her hand away, but identally hit her wound in the process.


    She winced in pain.


    Only then did James notice the bloodstains on the back of her hand and asked, "What happened?"


    Just as he finished speaking, Beatrice walked in through the door.


    She had overheard their conversation outside the door, and how lucky she was that James had forgotten why she came to the hospital!


    Beatrice''s face immediately filled with smugness, and she began to sob.
