Chapter 241
The entire 12th floor of the hospital was in an uproar. The noise was unbearable, and the doctor couldn’t help but come out to warn them. “Please be quiet, this is a hospital. If you continue to cause commotion here, I’ll have security to escort you out! However, the culprit remained arrogant and asked mockingly, “Escort me out?
“Do you people know who I am! Do you think the children are gone just because some doctors said so? They were the heirs of the Wellington family and the heirs of my Reed family: None of you can bear the responsibility for this. Did you take photos? Did you record anything! Get your hospital director here to see me immediately.” The people from the Reed family were overbearing and full of anger.
The ones who came today were Samantha from the Reed family and Stephanie’s stepmother, Courtney, Gary was on a business trip and didn’t come in person, but the enraged Samantha alone was already enough to trouble the hospital staff.
By the time Molly hurried over, she found the entire 12th floor was already in chaos, thanks to Samantha. Relatives and patients in other rooms were whispering and peeking out to see what was happening.
The doctor’s office was crowded. Samantha and Diana were invited inside, while Molly stood outside, observing several doctors in white coats discussing the situation. One of them was Matthew, the lead doctor for Stephanie’s emergency surgery.
“We are deeply sorry and saddened by what happened. I was the one in charge of the surgery. When the patient was brought to our hospital, she was already in a deep coma, and her injuries were severe. As for the babies, their situation was already very dire. The surgery was not recorded, as per hospital regulations. We generally do not record surgeries, and at that time, our priority was on saving the patient’s life… Matthew lowered his head apologetically toward Samantha and spoke in a heavy tone. “In the end, we couldn’t save the babies. I apologize once again. We had tried our best
Her face darkened with anger as she shouted, “Don’t give me these excuses! This was murder! You murdered my grandchildren!
“Who paid you people off, huh? Who is jealous of the Reed family? How could the mother survive while the two children couldn’t be saved?”
Unable to listen any longer, Diana angrily retorted, “Mrs. Samantha Reed, you’re already old. You should mind your words. What are you ever implying! Do you want to trade Steffi’s life for your two precious grandsons, to curry favor with the Wellington family?”
Samantha responded, “It was her fortune to marry Dominick and join the Wellington family. Diana, don’t forget, Stephanie is my granddaughter. You are just her aunt. Her affairs are for the Reed family to decide. You have no right to interfere.”
to use her to
Thave no right? Go ask Steth who she listens to then. Mrs. Samantha Reed, you know well that Steffi hates the Reed family. You want to gain wealth and status? Dream on“”“ Diana exclaimed.
The doctor’s office was instantly in chaos. Samantha’s old face was contorted with rage as she nearly lunged at Diana, Courtney remained calm, holding Samantha’s arm and gently comforting her. “Don’t be angry. Let’s handle this properly…”

“This cannot be resolved. Tim not done with her Samantha glared at Diana, seething with anger. Tve waited so long, and finally, I got an invitation to Wellington Villa to discuss the children’s one–month celebration. But that wretched woman made a scene at the Wellington family and ruined everything.
“Diana, what are your intentions? You are worse than your sister, hiding your true self. Steffi marrying Dominick and carrying his children, the next heirs of the Wellington family, was a great joy. What are you trying to do? Are you envious of the Reed family? Now that the children are gone, you must be the happiest!” Samantha scolded harshly. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, making her expression turn sinister. She harshly questioned, “Diana, tell me, was the car accident your doing? Did you kill my grandchildren?”
Diana, under this barrage of questions, showed signs of guilt and nervousness, “There’s no proof! Stop spouting nonsense!”
Samantha questioned, “Is your last name even Reed? Why were you informed first about Steffi’s accident and not us, the Reed family! Diana, you’re obviously hiding something. What are you plotting? You and your sister are both vicious. How cruel you are!”
Even the doctors in the office looked helpless as they saw that this old lady was clearly being unreasonable and taking out her anger unfairly.
Matthew explained, “By regulations, we need a family member’s signature before surgery, but the situation was too urgent at the time, and we couldn’t find any ID or phone on the patient. Even the vehicle involved didn’t belong to the patient. Later, the police found out through the nearby streets that Ms. Clark had an altercation with the patient that day…”
Samantha yelled, “Diana, it was you! You were the one who caused my grandchildren’s death!
“What w
were you even thinking, dragging and pulling Steffi in the pouring raint she was supposed to be at Wellington Villa preparing for delivery. How did the end up stealing a car and driving onto the highway? It was all you’re doing, wasn’t it? Diana, you wicked woman, you’ll get what you devervet
“You killed my grandchildren. I will never let you get away with this. Nevert
In the end, Samantha went mad, cursing like a shrew and completely disregarding her status. She rushed forward and slapped Diana hard. The slap was loud and forceful
While this was happening, Molly had been standing outside the doctor’s office, stunned. She finally understood why Diana had been hesitant to enter Stephanie’s ward lately. It turned out she had an altercation with Stephanie that day.

g was off. She thought, No matter how much Diana disliked
Molly knew she wasn’t very smart, but she could sense that something was family, she shouldn’t have gone that far.
The doctor in the office saw Samantha losing control and immediately dragged her away. Diana seemed stunned by the slap, or perhaps the felt guilty about the whole incident, as she didn’t retaliate or say anything.
Matthew glanced at them and tried to calm things down. “Arguing here won’t help. The incident has already happened. You guys should be more concerned about the patient…
This woman is a menace. She’s not allowed near my granddaughter’s ward from now on,” Samantha ordered with a stern face, and with Courtney’s support, she walked directly toward the ward
Diana suddenly became alert and rushed out. “Stem is emotionally unstable right now. Don’t provoke her. You’re not allowed to go in
The doctor watched these relatives making a scene and was about to call security.
Just then. Molly positioned herself in front of the ward door and spread her arms
swide to block them.
She mustered up her courage and raised her voice to warn them, “Stephanie needs to rest. She doesn’t want to see any of you right now. Please leave immediately.
“Stephanie is not a tool. She has her own ideas and the right to pursue her happiness. You all claim it’s for her own good, but it’s all nonsense. Everything you do is moral coercion, selfish, and for your own interests.
“With all the commotion you’re causing, she’s already scared“”
Samantha’s face turned grim at these words, and she scolded, “It’s not your place to speak. Get out of the way!”
Molly then held onto the door handle tightly. Samantha stepped forward to pry her hand away a Intervened, and the scene turned chaotic.
and even yanked her hair. People nearby hurriedly
Meanwhile, the inside of the ward remained eerily quiet, and it instantly made Molly feel uneasy. She quickly pushed Samantha away, burst through the door, and rushed inside.
along with Samantha, Courtney, and others who were looking into the room, equally stunned. She then stood there in shock, frozen in place, along! “Who is he?” Samantha was the first to speak. Molly and the others watched as the man on the bed leaned down, effortlessly picked up Stephanie. and walked toward them.
“Who are you? Put my granddaughter down now!” Samantha shouted angrily, but another rough voice answered from behind her, “Mrs. Samantha Reed, you’d better get out of our way, or I guarantee the Reed family will end up like the Pearson family.”
At some point, the corridor on the 12th floor had become crowded with professional bodyguards in dark blue uniforms. At the front stood a stocky, middle–aged man with a vulgar, rich demeanor. It was Mason, who had just issued a sinister warning with a rough voice.
“Oscar, where are you taking Steffi?” Diana shouted anxiously.
Molly saw Stephanie trembling and curling up in Oscar’s arms. She had guessed it right. Stephanie could hear the commotion outside the hallway, and her fragile state was on the verge of breaking. The Reed family people were genuinely despicable.
“Ms. Clark, your niece probably doesn’t want to see you. Mason said, blocking Diana with his burly arm and giving her a disdainful look. He then turned to Molly and asked, “What are you standing there for? Hurry up and follow them!”
Molly’s mind was slow to catch up, but her body reacted quickly, and she hurriedly ran after them.
She knew Mason, this greasy, potbellied, lecherous old man. Mason had gotten Molly fired last time. She had heard he was Oscar’s uncle and seemed to be doing Oscar’s bidding.
When Molly took the elevator to the first–floor lobby, she saw Oscar at the door, getting into a waiting black Bentley with Stephanic in his arms. Molly rushed over and hesitated, but after seeing that he seemed to have left a spot for her, she quickly got in,
Oscar wasn’t much of a talker, and Molly wasn’t smart enough to figure out what he was up to.
But, as she sneaked a look over at them, she couldn’t tell what medicine Oscar had given Stephanic. Despite looking pale and frail, Stephanie had already drifted off to sleep.
Molly
lly felt somewhat relieved, knowing that at least Oscar wouldn’t hurt Stephanie.
“Oscar won’t harm me. Stephanie had said this unwavering certainty before.
Molly felt that it was good that Oscar was back. Compared to Dominick’s cold and domineering nature, she thought Oscar’s temperament suited Stephanie beller.
As the car drove on, Molly looked at the surroundings and was suddenly surprised. “Where are we going? This road looks very
ery familiar to me.”
