Then his phone rang. Martin glanced at the screen, and saw it was Louisa calling.
"Mrs. Collins," he answered, his voice laced with fatigue but nonetheless respectful.
"Martin, after all the trust the Collins family has placed in you, how could you do something like this?
Did you ever intend to deliver Erik to us alive?"
"What are you talking about?" Martin's gaze darkened with surprise and gravity. "How did Erik die?
When?"
Before he had handed Erik over, the man had been perfectly fine.
"Don't play dumb with me. Now, I want his daughter back—alive or dead, I need proof!"
"Ma'am, could there be some misunderstanding?" Martin quickly tried to clarify. "When we captured
Erik, we indeed used a sedative, but it was only meant to knock him out for a few hours. My team just
knocked him out, nothing more. How he died, I implore you to enlighten me."
He had thought that if Erik ended up in the Collinses' hands, his fate would be rough, but at least he'd
still have a breath in him.
But he hadn't expected to lose the man overnight.
If Serena ever woke up and asked about her father, how would he ever explain.
"Are you sure you didn't have a hand in this?" Louisa clearly didn't believe him.
"If I had meddled in this, then I, Martin, swear I shall never be with Serena in this life or the next!" He
believed it was the most binding oath he could make.
Louisa, hearing this, started to waver in her suspicion. "If it was not you, then who had done this?"
Who would want Erik dead?
"Mrs. Collins, I don't have all the details. Erik is Serena's biological father; I would never harm him
behind her back. I therefore request your clear judgment. I would stake my life, even the lives of my
entire family, to swear that I have no involvement in this matter."
He was innocent!
Louisa knew how much he valued his family. But if it wasn't Martin, who else could be responsible?
Louisa hung up. The sound of the call disconnecting echoed in Martin's ear.
He just couldn't fathom how Erik had died so suddenly.
At that moment, the doors to the emergency room swung open, and a group of doctors emerged.
Martin quickly pocketed his phone and marched towards them. "How is she?"
"The patient's wound has become severely infected. Bacteria have entered the bloodstream and
caused a systemic infection. Her organs are showing signs of failure. You need to be prepared, Mr.
Cooper. There's a very high possibility that she might..."
"NO!" Martin was struck as if by thunder. "Please, there must be something you can do! Aren't you
some of the best doctors in the world? Why can't you save a single person? I’ll pay whatever it takes—
just save her!"
"The patient's condition is critical—her vital functions and organs have all been seriously affected.
We’re truly sorry, we have done all we can."
The doctors lowered their heads in helpless guilt.
"No." Martin couldn't accept this reality, "She mustn’t die. There’s got to be a way, please!"
Even though he'd braced for the worst when he'd taken Serena from the Collins' clutches the previous
night.

Facing the grim outcome now, he simply couldn't bear it.
His Serena couldn't die.
If she died, what would he do?
"How can she be saved? Just tell me how." Martin said, nearly losing his control.
