Chapter 222
Janice grabbed the gurney that was about to wheel away and sat up, straining to look at Jta on the
bed.
We all followed her gaze.
Indeed, Jta''s hand was clenched into a fist, shaking continuously. At that moment, I almost broke
into tears. It meant that Jta was conscious. She must have sensed that her sister was in
danger,which lead to her agitation.
The monitor on the bedside table started beeping, sending a panic through the room.
Janice gritted her teeth, grabbed me by my arm, and said anxiously, "Aaliyah, please watch over my
sister for me. I beg you!"

I nodded fervently. "Don''t worry. I''ll make sure she''s okay! Doctor, please save her! Go..."
After saying this, I pushed the gurney. The medical staff quickly started wheeling Janice towards the
emergency room.
Gevena gave me a look. We exchanged nces, and she followed Janice.
I stood rooted to the spot and watched them disappear from sight before rushing to Jta''s bedside.
"Jta!" I called out, clutching her trembling hand. Regardless of whether she could hear me, I tried
to soothe her, "Don''t worry. Everything will be fine!"
By this time, Irving had called for the medical staff of this ward, and was instructing them about
something.
Catherine had also finished her call and returned, looking at us helplessly.
Seeing Irving reaching out to touch Jta, I barked, "Don''t touch her!"
Everyone in the room was stunned by my outburst, all eyes on me. Irving stared at me, his eyes filled
with confusion and a hint of menace. I didn''t hesitate. "Since Janice has entrusted Jta to me,
nobody can touch her in my presence! Mr. Bradlee, you’ve promised Gevena to leave, and you’d better
keep your word!"
At this point, I was truly furious. I had had enough of their father-daughter drama and didn''t want to give
them any leeway.
"Mrs. Dawson, do you know what you''re doing?" Irving questioned me coldly.
"Of course I do!" I replied righteously, "You don’t need to worry about anything here! You should leave
now! If there''s any news, Janice will inform you if she feels the need!"
"Don''t act high and mighty here. You''re an outsider. It would be wise for you to shut up!" Irving snarled
at me, his eyes filled with hostility.
"What if I don''t?" I stood my ground, unyielding, facing him head-on. "Don''t forget that you''re also an
outsider here!"
On hearing my words, Irving was clearly displeased. His gaze became even more piercing and his tone
more sinister. "Mrs. Dawson, I didn''t expect you to be such a busybody! This woman is the mother of
my child. It’s perfectly justified for me to be involved. Who the hell do you think you are? Do you think
you can handle the consequences if something happens to her?"
"If you''d get lost, nothing would happen to her!" I stood in his way, "I, Aaliyah Wilburn, will take care of
this today! But I''m curious why you’re so bothered by whether Jta wakes up!"
"You..." Irving red at me, his jaw clenched, his eyes bloodshot.
"Get out of the way!" I barked. Then, without paying him any heed, I instructed Catherine, "Call Dr.
Dailey immediately and tell him to check on Jta!"
I had to prepare for an emergency. I couldn''t let Jta out of my sight. The only person I trusted was
Dr. Dailey.
Catherine immediately took out her phone and called Dr. Dailey as told. By this time, the medical staff
had brought another gurney and moved Jta onto it, wheeling her out.
I hurriedly followed them. Although my legs felt like jelly, I gritted my teeth and kept moving.
In the back of my mind, Logan''s words echoed. Anything could happen, and I had to be ready.
Fortunately, Catherine was always by my side. When we got to the emergency room door, Dr. Dailey
and his assistant had already arrived.
Without hesitation, I approached him, grabbed his arm, and whispered, "Dr. Dailey, I beg you. Don''t let
this patient out of your sight. She’ll be in danger otherwise. Please ensure her safety!"
Dr. Dailey nodded solemnly. Without saying a word, he went straight in with his team.
