When he saw Camilla lying limply on the floor, Albert was confused. Kate's face was also pale.Seeing how devastated Camilla was, Kate explained in her stead, "The burn victim was Jeremy."After saying that, she looked down at Camilla, who was still in a daze. "In other words, he was Ms. Sloan's husband.""What?" Albert's eyes widened in disbelief. He was both shocked and bewildered.He was shocked to discover that the doctor he highly regarded at the hospital was Camilla's husband. However…Albert's face twisted awkwardly. He was sure that the surgical cut on the burn victim's body was Jeremy's doing. Yet Kate said that the burn victim lying on the operating table was Jeremy.There was no way Jeremy could've removed his own kidney. So, Albert was sure he wasn't Jeremy! After some hesitation, he decided not to tell Camilla the truth.The cut was clean, which meant Jeremy was safe. Albert also remembered how the higher-ups from Sloan Group made Jeremy's life in the hospital a liv

Camilla's icy voice reverberated in the operating theater.Even Kate jumped in fright.She hurried over to Camilla's side and said in a low voice, "Ms. Sloan, Dr. Landry instructed me to send Zachary back to the hospital for urgent care as he's just had an operation. This is in order to prevent post-operative infection or transplant rejection."Kate was annoyed with Zachary, but they still had to investigate the incident. If he were behind it, then he would face retribution. However, she could not let him die now!Camilla turned to look at her, and the expression on her face surprised Kate, who could not tell if Camilla was laughing or crying."Jeremy's still here. What right does Zachary have to leave?"Kate was startled. Before she could react, Camilla had walked over to the door. She was covered in blood, and the medical staff warily moved the hospital bed aside at once. They were terrified that she would suddenly go crazy.Luckily, Camilla ignored them and just locked the

However, only the first slap had an effect on Zachary. The rest did not trigger any reaction at all.Camilla looked even more impatient. She lunged forward and pushed everyone aside. "Get lost!"She reached out viciously for the bandages around Zachary's abdomen, and there was a tearing sound as she ripped them off. The violent action tore the wound open, and it began bleeding at once!Camilla's eyes were crimson as she picked up a scalpel from the floor. Just as she was about to strike, Kate grabbed her hand. "That's enough, Ms. Sloan!"She lowered her voice. "If you keep going, he'll die."Camilla was breathing heavily. "I've changed my mind. If he dies, he can go down to the underworld and apologize to Jeremy! If he hadn't been around for the past few years, Jeremy and I would never have gotten to this point!"If Zachary hadn't driven Jeremy to leave home, he wouldn't have been at this stupid clinic!"Ultimately, Jeremy's death is inextricably linked to Zachary, even if h

Chapter 284

Zachary was momentarily stunned.Logically, since Zachary's operation was done, Jeremy should either be undergoing emergency care or already be dead. How could Zachary meet him? Zachary's mind was processing things slowly, probably because he had only just regained consciousness. He forced a smile and said, "I should. If Jeremy hadn't found a donor kidney and saved me, I probably wouldn't be here right now."Camilla laughed. "Alright. I'll take you to see him."As she spoke, she suddenly reached out and pinched Zachary's cheek hard to force his mouth open.With her other hand, she held a gleaming scalpel in an underhand grip."Camilla…" Zachary's expression changed. He tried to struggle, but the anesthesia still hadn't worn off completely, and he could not muster up the strength."You've got a sharp tongue. We'd better get rid of it." Camilla's hand plunged down, gripping the scalpel tightly.Zachary's eyes widened, and he began shaking violently. As he was struggling, the

Harriet was about to say something when one of the medical staff shouted, "The patient is experiencing a mild rejection reaction and urgently needs an intravenous infusion!"Ralph's expression darkened. He said to Camilla, "We all need to look to the future. I'll give Jeremy a grand funeral. I understand how you feel right now, so take some time to calm down while we take Zachary to the hospital. Kate, watch Ms. Sloan properly and bandage her hand!"Camilla let Kate bandage her hand while she stared fixedly at Ralph. There was a very conflicted look in her eyes. Her relentless stare made Ralph feel guilty, but he maintained his usual expression and did not portray how he felt.Camilla suddenly opened her mouth, her voice dry and hoarse. "He'll have to pay the price. I can't let my Jeremy die for nothing."Ralph looked her in the eye. "You know that he can't die. Besides, Jeremy volunteered to donate his kidney. As for the burns on his body, I'll investigate thoroughly and give yo

Chapter 286

Jeremy could dismiss Jane's knowledge about other details on his body, but the corpse had a tattoo on the inside of his thigh. A tattoo artist had done a rushed job on it before it was sent over. It was a little crudely done due to the urgency of the situation, but the burns on the man's skin had managed to conceal that. Jeremy stared at Jane without moving.The birthmark was in such an intimate spot. Almost no one except Camilla knew about it. Unless…Jane suddenly covered her mouth and burst into giggles."What do you think? Since I'm confident enough to let you stay with me, that means that I know every single thing about you, including the number of hairs on your head."Jeremy frowned. He did not believe that at all.Jane sighed inwardly. Why on earth was Jeremy so observant?Her eyes darted from side to side. She thought of an excuse and laughed softly. "There was a surveillance camera in the room that you stayed in at the estate."Her beautiful, almond-shaped eyes narr

"Jeremy…" Camilla's lips parted slightly, and her voice sounded dry and hoarse. "He's dead."Upon hearing this, an abrupt silence fell on the other end of the phone.It was followed by a heavy thump. Camilla recovered instantly. "Charlotte, Charlotte! What happened?"However, all that was left was a busy signal. Camilla's eyelid twitched. She had lost Jeremy because she hadn't been watching over him carefully enough. She could not let anything happen to Charlotte!She looked longingly at the corpse on the operating table, then stuffed her phone away and looked at Kate."Find someone to bring my mother home and stay here to watch over Jeremy. Don't let anyone come in! I'm going out, and I'll be right back."Kate nodded heavily. "Alright."Camilla gave the corpse on the operating table a long look, then clenched her teeth and turned to leave. As she brushed past Harriet, she only had time to say, "Mom, I'm going to visit Charlotte. Kate will arrange for you to go home, so pl

The orange, crimson flames on the car's screen were also reflected in Jeremy's eyes.The towering flames looked as if they could burn away all the evil in the world, including his unhappy marriage with Camilla. Jeremy reached out and turned off the screen. He looked sideways. "I didn't expect you to install a camera in a place like that."Jane didn't even look up. "Aren't you going to address me properly anymore? That's very rude. I saved your life, didn't I?"Jeremy was rendered speechless. He admitted that he was instinctively avoiding calling her by name. However, it was true that she had saved him. Reluctantly, he said, "Jane.""Yes." Jane nodded in satisfaction. She took out a heated eye mask from her bag. "Put this on and sleep for a while. We're about to arrive. Don't ask any other questions.""Alright." Jeremy reached out to take the mask and put it on.He was not worried about Jane harming him. If someone with her status and power wanted him dead, he would be a cor

Jane's hand was on Jeremy's, but he felt her go stiff. She let go slowly and looked at the door to the shooting range. "What are you doing here, Eric?"Jeremy turned around and looked over.A young-looking man who resembled Jane slightly stood at the door. Was this her brother? Was his name Eric?Jeremy's brow furrowed. He could sense violence, hostility, and insanity in Eric's eyes as he looked at Jeremy. When Eric looked at Jane, there was a possessive urge in his eyes that only men could recognize. Jeremy was a doctor, and he immediately deduced that Eric had mental health issues.The two of them stared at each other for a moment. Jane recovered and silently stepped between them. She made the introductions. "Eric, let me introduce you to my personal doctor, Jeremy Cooper."Eric's handsome face darkened at once. "Jane, didn't I tell you that you're not allowed to have other men around you?"Upon hearing this, Jane's beautiful eyes immediately turned cold."Eric, if it

Chapter 290

Jane looked at both Eric and Jeremy, especially the latter.Once she was sure that neither of them was injured, she asked Eric coldly, "Why are you kicking up a fuss? I know what Dr. Cooper is like. If you hadn't provoked him, he wouldn't have fired a shot to scare you!"Eric was stunned. He was in complete disbelief. Jane had always obeyed his every whim, but now she was taking the side of an outsider!He pointed at the gun that Jeremy was holding. "Scare me? That bullet grazed my face, and you say that he was just trying to scare me?"Upon hearing this, Jane's gaze fell on Jeremy. There was a conflicted look in her eyes. After a long time, she said slowly, "Dr. Cooper, remember this. We don't point guns at our own people. Even if it's a blank, it can still cause injuries. I hope that there won't be a next time."Before Jeremy could speak, Jane stepped forward and dragged Eric away. "Come with me!"Eric did not resist as she pulled him over to the door of the training studio.
