Chapter 519

Lennon was so angry that he raised his hand to slap Adrian.

However, Adrian was no longer an obedient person. He grabbed Lennon’s hand and pushed him back.

With a heavy thud, Lennon’s head hit a corner of the table. Blood flowed out like a pillar instantly, along with Lennon’s white brain medulla.

Then, Lennon collapsed to the ground as if he had no bones.

He didn’t move, but his eyes were wide open.

Adrian was shocked and quickly walked forward. “Dad, don’t scare me. Are you alright…”

He shook his father’s body hard, but his father did not react at all. Only his eyes were still wide open.

Adrian’s heart skipped a beat. He reached out with a trembling hand to check Lennon’s breathing.

About ten seconds later, his legs went soft and he slumped to the ground. He muttered in a daze, “Dead, dead…”

‘I didn’t do it on purpose. I swear I did not do it on purpose. I was only subconsciously resisting. Yes! Resistance! I was defending myself, not killing. The police won’t put me in jail. Adrian gulped and trembled as he took out his phone to call the police.

However, he quickly hung up when the call was about to connect.

‘No, my bright future is right in front of me. I can’t be brought to the police station because of this… Even if I say I was defending myself and won’t go to jail, I’ll still be

delayed for a long time. At that time, the patient’s family will no longer want me. At the thought of this, Adrian quickly got up from the ground and dragged his father to the cabinet in the small room.

Then, he tidied up his clothes and left the small room as if nothing had happened. Moreover, he locked the room.

He told himself that as long as he could fake his father’s death after this period, everything would be resolved.

Adrian took a deep breath and contacted a few higher-ups in the hospital. He said that his father was not feeling well and needed to go home to recuperate recently. He also said his father would not answer anyone’s calls.

After doing this, he walked back to the entrance of the ICU.

At the same time, Melody and Ken also arrived at Ward 1101 in the inpatient department.

At this moment, Ward 1101 was in a mess. The resident doctor was trying his best to save Janet.

Melody also walked into the ward and saw a large area of the bedsheet was red with blood. Janet was already unconscious.

She narrowed her eyes as her mind raced.

Although Janet and Sid had a good relationship, she knew Janet. She knew Janet was not the kind of person who would kill herself out of guilt.

‘Moreover, even if she was so guilty that she wanted to commit suicide, she should have waited for the news of Sid’s death before ending her own life. She should not have done this while Sid was still in surgery. The only explanation was that Janet felt guilty. She wanted to use this opportunity to divert everyone’s attention. However, if that’s the case, it will seem like she is exposing herself. However, even if I think so, others might not. With those thoughts in mind, Melody subconsciously turned to look at Ken to see his reaction.

Ken asked the nurse who led the way with a dark expression, “Didn’t you keep an eye on her?”

“I’m sorry…” The nurse was also frightened. She lowered her head and said, “I didn’t know it would be like this. After you left, she was in a normal mood and cooperated with our treatment. I thought she was fine, so I went to the nurses’ station to work.”

Ken closed his eyes but did not make things difficult for the nurse.

He walked to Melody and said, “Melody, can you-“

“I got it.” Before Ken could finish his request, Melody had arrived at the bedside.

She said, “I’m a doctor. I’ll do it.”

When the doctors saw this, they took a step back. Only one doctor was still pressing on the bleeding spot.

Melody took out the silver needle bag she carried with her. After opening the bag, she took out a few silver needles and inserted them into Janet’s acupuncture points one after another.

Soon, the bleeding situation improved.

Melody put away the silver needle bag and instructed the doctors, “The bleeding has stopped, but three meridians are broken. You need to perform surgery to suture them.”

“Alright!” The doctors were surprised by the speed at which Melody stopped the bleeding, but they did not waste any time. They pushed the bed and brought Janet to the operating theater.

“Thank you.” Ken thanked her from behind.

Melody’s back stiffened. She remembered that Ken had once told her he did not like it when she thanked him. It seemed distant.

‘But isn’t he thanking me now?’ Melody’s emotions suddenly became complicated.

However, she didn’t say anything. She only turned around and said, “The nurse found her in time. She didn’t lose much blood, so there shouldn’t be any problems. Don’t worry.”

Ken nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Melody spoke first. “I’m a little tired today. I want to go back and rest. Zara is still waiting for me at Herbathrive. I’ll leave first.”

“I’ll drive you.”

“Forget it.” Melody shook her head and said, “Didn’t you arrange a driver for me? I can go back myself. You stay here and wait for Miss Murphy to wake up. Keep a close eye on Sid. Otherwise, Ulric’s people might take advantage of the loophole.”

“Okay.” Ken didn’t know what else to say.

Melody nodded slightly and walked out of the ward without looking at Ken.

However, the moment she entered the elevator, all the expressions on her face dimmed.

‘I was right. Ken did not think of the same thing as me. Even if Ken got suspicious of Janet before this, this suspicion would probably dissipate because of this show. Melody suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly.

She remembered something.

When she had a few disputes with Mabel in her previous life, Ulric always stood on Mabel’s side.

At that time, her mood was surprisingly similar to now.

‘But Ken is only my business partner, while I and Ulric were a couple in my previous life. Melody shook her head hard to prevent herself from having any unnecessary thoughts. She walked out of the elevator.

At this moment, she bumped into Adrian, who was hurrying out of another elevator.

When Adrian saw her, a hint of guilt flashed across his eyes.

Then, he quickly raised his chin and said, “Female liar, what are you looking at? Let me tell you, if you dare to tell anyone about what happened in the resuscitation room, I’ll tell everyone about you pretending to be a famous doctor and get the police to arrest you. But as long as you know what’s good for you, we’ll still mind our business alone, understand?”

Melody could not be bothered with Adrian and was about to walk out.

Adrian saw Meloddy ignore him again and immediately stretched out his hand to block Melody. “Don’t go. You have to agree to the deal I proposed first.”

Melody was already in a bad mood, but Adrian insisted on provoking her.

She narrowed her eyes and said coldly, “A deal? I didn’t pretend to be anyone, but you’re the one who’s taking my credit. What kind of deal is this? And I’m afraid you’ve forgotten the saying… God watches what people do. Do you think Sebastian won’t find the secret if I don’t say it? Ridiculous!”

“You…” Adrian’s eyes widened in anger.

He knew that his strength was no match for Melody. He had nowhere to vent his anger.

Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he saw security guards patrolling not far away. He shouted, “Come over quickly and capture this female liar.
