Chapter 468
Daisy froze, whipping her head toward the source of the sound.
A woman stood in the shadows, dressed in standard hospital scrubs with a surgical mask obscuring the lower half of her face.
Daisy couldn’t recognize her at all.
But the masked woman’s words cut clearly through the silence: “There are no cameras in this section of the hallway. The hospital’s entire network is down for maintenance today. If you’re smart about this, no one will ever know what really happened p>
Those few sentences were like slipping a loaded gun into the hands of a lunatic.
Total clarity washed over Daisy.
Exactly. No security cameras. No witnesses.
As long as she looked battered enough, pathetic enough, and screamed loud enough.
Everyone would instantly believe that the arrogant, icy Dr. Sloan had used her authority to brutally assault a helpless girl.
When the dust settled, Jarred would see Sienna as a heartless monster, and the public would crucify her for her cruelty.
Meanwhile, Daisy would be the tragic victim—the poor girl who came to offer a sincere apology, only to be maliciously attacked.
Even if she still had to board that plane, she was going to drag Sienna straight down to hell with her, obliterating her pristine reputation in the process.
Daisy looked up, biting her lip hard enough to draw blood.
Her gaze locked onto Sienna’s retreating figure—the woman who hadn’t even deemed her worthy of a second glance.
Gripping her phone tightly, Daisy fired off a rapid text message before breaking into a sprint after her.
Sienna hadn’t anticipated Daisy being this relentlessly unhinged.
She was already at her office door, yet Daisy was still aggressively tailing her.
Having zero desire to engage with the lunatic any further, Sienna reached for the handle to go inside.
However, just as her fingers wrapped around the metal, the frantic thud of footsteps behind her was suddenly punctuated by a bloodcurdling shriek.
“Ah p>
Sienna snapped her head around just in time to see Daisy “miss a step” from the staircase two feet away.
Daisy threw her entire body weight backward, slamming brutally into the metal handrail.
She tumbled down two hard concrete steps before crashing violently onto the floor of the landing.
Her agonizing scream tore through the quiet corridor.
Sienna stood absolutely still, her eyes darkening as she watched Daisy curl into a ball on the ground, genuinely bleeding.
Daisy had split her forehead open on the impact, bright red blood streaming down the side of her face, and thick, angry scrapes covered her forearms.
She huddled on the floor, clutching her leg and letting out a series of harrowing, gut-wrenching sobs.
“Why… why did you push me! I told you I was sorry! I came here to apologize to you p>
I swear I won’t try to take Jarred from you… Why did you have to be so vicious p>
Her voice was shrill and brittle, slicing through the hospital’s tranquility like shattered glass.
Footsteps erupted from every direction.
Within seconds, both ends of the corridor were flooded with people.
A chaotic wave of murmurs and accusations instantly exploded.
“What happened? Look how badly she’s bleeding p>
“Wait, isn’t that the girl whose mom died? The one who came demanding justice last time p>
“Hey! I recognize that doctor! That’s the one she was accusing!” Someone jabbed a finger directly at Sienna.
“Oh my god! Is this retaliation p>
At those words, the bystanders who already harbored a bias against Sienna immediately glared at her with open hostility.
Dozens of accusing eyes locked onto Sienna, who stood near her office door, her expression entirely unbothered.
She wore her pristine white coat, her hand still resting casually on the door handle.
Looking down at the girl sobbing hysterically at the bottom of the steps a faint smirk of absolute contempt touched Sienna’s lips.
Daisy’s wails grew even louder. She weakly attempted to push herself up, failing dramatically and collapsing back onto the floor.
“Dr. Sloan… I just came to offer a genuine apology p>
“I already surrendered. I agreed to leave the country. Why… why did you have to shove me so violently p>
Trembling from head to toe, she played the role of the broken, battered victim with terrifying perfection.
“I just made a mistake… You didn’t have to try and kill me p>
Her agonizing accusations instantly seized control of the crowd’s narrative.
