Before approaching the ward, Holden noticed several doctors and nurses bustling in and out, their urgent movements suggesting a rescue in progress.

His mind briefly went blank.

Acting on instinct, Holden released the children’s hands and hastened towards the ward entrance.

“What’s wrong with daddy?” Melon looked at Adele, perplexed.

Adele shook her head.

“I don’t know.

The next second, the two kids hurried to catch up with Holden, but Holden had already vanished from their view, entering the ward.

A pungent odor permeated the room.

Ariana lay on the bed, eyes closed in agonized struggle.

Her entire body flushed red, seeming on the brink of bursting.

The floor was strewn with sticky, murky vomit.

Inside the ward, Mitchel’s voice rose in urgent concern.

“The patient’s in shock! Defibrillator! Arrange for the emergency treatment in No.

3 operating room!”

Ariana’s sudden symptoms threw Holden into a panic.

He stopped a nurse, demanding, “What’s happening?”

“Mr.

Fredrick?” The nurse trembled in Holden’s grasp.

“Miss Edwards’ organs are failing, and she’s coughing up blood.

Holden felt as though an invisible hand had gripped his throat, choking him.

“How is this possible? You said her life wasn’t at risk!” Holden’s voice thundered, rattling those bustling around the ward.

The nurse beside Holden was on the verge of screaming in fear.

Her legs trembled weakly as she answered, her voice quivering, “M-Maybe it’s due to a medication rejection reaction.

Holden’s mouth twitched slightly.

He gazed at the frail figure of Ariana in bed, speechless for a long moment.

Witnessing his distress, the nurse quickly squatted, retrieving a blood-soaked cloth from the floor.

Trembling, she hurriedly left the ward, unwilling to Linger.

The monitors beeped loudly, echoing like drums.

As Holden moved towards Ariana, Mitchel intervened.

“Get out of my way,” Holden demanded, his voice cold.

Mitchel didn’t respond directly.

He frowned, speaking icily.

“The patient is hemorrhaging.

Your emotional state makes it unsafe for you to be near her.

Before Holden could protest further, Mitchel directed other staff to escort him away.

The staff hesitated, exchanging uneasy glances, reluctant to restrain Holden.

“What are you waiting for? Move! Can you risk losing the chance to save the patient?” Even the typically composed Mitchel grew agitated.

Doctors and nurses trembled, attempting to persuade Holden to leave.

One nurse attempted to pull Holden away, but he shoved her to the floor.

Holden, struggling to control his emotions, fought to stay with Ariana.

Wearing a pair of blood-stained gloves, Mitchel attempted to pull Holden away.

The scent of Ariana’s blood filled the air, causing Holden sharp pain.

“Please, just let me have a look at her, just one look,” Holden pleaded in a trembling voice.
