Chapter 144
Even though he was no longer in the business, he wasn’t blind or deaf. Very little escaped his notice.
Master Ellis shot her a glare. “It’s your family’s business. You don’t even know, so how would I p>
“Master, your reach is vast p>
Seeing his master’s eyes narrow, she quickly corrected herself.
“No, I mean, you’re so perceptive. Of course you’d know more than me.” Mira looped her arm through her master’s, her face a picture of flattery. “Hehe, Master, please just tell me p>
Unable to fend off her pestering, Jordan relented. “Mara hemorrhaged. If she had arrived at the hospital twenty minutes later, she might have died p>
Thank you, Master, for the information.
“You’ve already cut ties with them. Why do you still care about these things?” Master Ellis glanced at her.
“To know your enemy is the first step to victory p>
St. Meridian Medical Center.
Julian and his men burst into Lucas’s office. “Quick, help me out. Ouch, it hurts like hell p>
“What happened? Who did you get into a fight with p>
“Don’t even ask. It’s all that damn girl Mira’s fault p>
“She beat you up like this? Impossible p>
Lucas quickly called over his students to take Julian and his men for examinations and to treat their wounds.
“She found a top-tier expert from somewhere. The guy attacked us the moment he got out of the car p>
That sister of his was getting more and more out of line.
The rest of the family heard Julian was back and rushed over. But when they learned that not only had Mira not returned with him, but she had also had him beaten up, their faces filled with disappointment.
“Mira has no conscience at all anymore,” Lacey said, wiping her tears.
“Since she’s so heartless, if she dies out there, we won’t even bother,” Adrian said through gritted teeth.
Mara had been through so much, and he, her father, had even given nearly a pint of his own blood for her. Yet that rebellious daughter refused to come back and had now gotten his son beaten up.
“Maybe you can take some more blood from me,” Adrian offered.
“No, you’re getting older and you’re the pillar of this family. If something happens to you, what will we all do?” Lacey pleaded.
Ethan frowned. “Why couldn’t I have a rare blood type p>
The previous night, Natalie had nearly ruptured Mara’s uterus, causing internal bleeding in her pelvic cavity. If it weren’t for Lucas’s surgical skills, they might have had to perform a hysterectomy, which would have left her with a lifelong disability. The situation had been critical, and to make matters worse, Mara had an Rh-negative blood type. The hospital’s supply of this rare blood was already low and nowhere near enough. St. Meridian was the best and largest hospital in Melvion City, if they didn’t have enough, smaller hospitals would have mone at all. Transferring blood from elsewhere would also take time. In desperation, they had taken some from their father, but Mara had lost so much blood that it was just a drop in the bucket.
At such a critical time, Mira was nowhere to be found.
His sister was truly foolish. Didn’t she realize this was also an opportunity for her to return to the Mercer family? Even inheriting a small fraction of the Mercer Group’s shares would be more than she could ever earn in a lifetime. It was just giving some blood; what was the big deal?
He still didn’t realize what would have happened if Mira had actually dared to go back. Given the Mercer family’s ruthlessness and their.
favoritism toward Mara, the net
wouldn’t have stopped until they’d drained her dry or at least left her half-dead. Her past life was a bloody lesson in that.
As Ethan was lost in thought, a medical staff member shouted that Mara was in
critical condition and needed an immediate transfusion.
Lacey burst into tears. “My poor child p>
Adrian gritted his teeth and said to Ethan, “Take more experts and go grab that rebellious girl p>
