“Deal. As long as you deliver results, we’ll settle everything else later. Just make sure it’s clean–no mess, no loose ends. I’ll double the payment,” Briley said coolly.

A low chuckle echoed from the other end of the call. “Understood, Miss Wall. Sit tight and wait for the good

news.”

Ending the call, Briley leaned back against the sofa. She could feel a trace of dampness clinging to her back, but the sense of relief still crept in. The thought of Sadie finally running into real trouble brought a faint smirk to

her lips.

Before she could fully pull herself together, a knock sounded at the door.

Leonard pushed it open a moment later. “Briley, everything’s been arranged. Should we head back to Jazmah

today?”

Briley hesitated for a moment. Leaving now might actually be the smarter choice. With her mind a tangled

mess and danger lurking nearby, staying would only invite more problems.

Pulling herself together, Briley gave a short nod. “Yeah. Let’s move.”

At Beversea Hospital, Sadie’s recovery had taken steady steps over the past few days, and she had been looking

a lot better than before.

Feeling less stiff, she decided to try getting up. The instant her feet touched the cold floor, her legs buckled slightly, forcing her to grab the edge of the bed for balance.

“Sadie!” Tina burst into the room, clutching a glass of water that nearly slipped from her fingers the moment

she saw Sadie standing.

She rushed forward, catching Sadie just in time and helping her carefully back onto the bed.

“You can’t just hop out of bed like that!” Tina scolded, planting her hands on her hips, her cheeks puffed up in

frustration. “How many times has the doctor warned you? You’re supposed to be resting! You’re carrying a baby, for crying out loud! Can you please stop making me worry myself sick?”

Tina looked like she was about to wear herself out from sheer anxiety.

Sadie couldn’t hold back a soft laugh at Tina’s exaggerated expression. She obediently snuggled back under the

covers.

“Okay, okay, I get it,” Sadie said with a small, reassuring smile. Her voice was calm as she reassured Tina, “I’ll be more careful from now on. Promise.”

Only after hearing that did Tina breathe a heavy sigh of relief and place the glass of water down on the

nightstand.

Then, as if struck by a sudden memory, Tina smacked her forehead dramatically

“Ah! I almost forgot! Nathan called earlier! He said he sent something over for you–it should be dometaire By

now! I’ll go grab it!”

Before Sadie could even react, Tina had already dashed out of the room like a whirlwind.

“slow down! It’s not a life–or–death situation,” Sadie called out, laughing quietly as she watched Tina sprint

away.

The room slipped back into a calm silence once again.

Drawing in a slow breath, Sadie gently rested her hand on her still–flat stomach. In the past few days, she hard begun to truly accept the little life growing inside her.

She already had Averi- her clever, sweet boy. But what if this time it was a girl? A bright, spirited little gir who mirrored her own younger self? Just imagining it filled her heart with warmth.

A soft smile touched her lips as her thoughts drifted.

Then, the peaceful moment was broken by the sound of the door creaking open. A nurse, masked and pushing a cart, quietly entered with her head bowed low.

Sadie’s brows pulled together. She was certain she had already received all her medications for the day

Unease crept over her as she observed the nurse’s movements.

The nurse fidgeted nervously, her eyes flickering everywhere as she deliberately avoided meeting Sadie’s gaze.

When the nurse finally spoke, her voice trembled. “Ms. Hudson, the doctor requested an additional dose I’m

here to administer it.”

Sadie stiffened instantly. Something wasn’t right. The nurse’s face was unfamiliar, and her every move felt wrong as it was forced and shaky.

Sadie couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. She was certain she had never seen this nurse before As the realization hit, a cold wave of unease washed over her.

“Where’s the nurse who’s been looking after me?” she asked, her voice calm but edged with suspicion Fumbling with the supplies on the cart, the woman stiffened, taking an extra second before mumbling her reply “Um, Hana had an emergency and had to leave. I’m just filling in for her,” she said, her voice strained and unnatural, still refusing to meet Sadie’s eyes.

As soon as the excuse left her lips, she quickly drew up a syringe and made her way toward the bed.

Sadie’s expression hardened. Hana? That was a lie. Her regular nurse was Lesly, a cheerful, bubbly girl, not someone named Hana. The woman standing in front of her was not a nurse.

Careful not to draw attention, Sadie quietly slid her hand beneath her pillow. Tina had insisted she keep a stun baton hidden there, just in case, and thankfully, she had listened.

The fake nurse, syringe in hand, was trembling more visibly with each step she took.
