Chapter 1430
âHannah, itâs just because youâre around that Iâm not at ease.â
Those words stabbed Steven like a knife in the heart. He reached out, grabbing her hand. âHannah, listen to meâ¦â
Hannah shook off his hand, yelling at him in anger, âDonât touch me!â
In the midst of this, Steven noticed that there was no needle in her arm. He glanced around, spotting the IV needle lying on the floor, still dripping fluid.
Without asking Hannah what happened, he started shouting, âDoctor, nurseâ¦â
Doctors and nurses rushed in. All the medical staff were familiar to Hannah, except for the nurse who just changed her medication.
This only confirmed Hannahâs suspicion. It must have been someone arranged by Daniela to harm her. Luckily, she was smart enough to pull out the IV in time, or she might be dead by now.
Daniela shared a bed with Steven, and Hannah didnât believe he was completely ignorant of Danielaâs actions.
Daniela just tried to harm her and now he was playing the good guy. Hannah never knew Stevenâs acting was so good, good enough to win an Oscar.
Steven scolded with a gloomy face, âWhat kind of medicine did you change? How did this needle end up on the floor?â
Seeing the needle on the floor, the nurse was sure she would never make such a basic mistake. But if it wasnât her, and there were no other nurses around, then who could it be? Regardless of whether she was to blame, she had to apologize. âPresident Dixon, I apologize. Iâll change the needle and reinsert it for Miss Hannah.â
They still wanted to insert a needle into her. Seemed like this jerk Steven was going to play dumb till the end, still trying to get her killed.
She couldnât just sit there and wait for her death.
What could she do? What should she do?
âNelly, how much longer till you get here?â In her urgency, Hannah remembered the self-saving trick Cornelia once taught her â playing the fool.
Acting was her forte.
Hannah held her head in her hands. âAhâ¦â
Steven was anxious. âHannah, whatâs wrong?â
Hannah screamed and made a fuss. âBad guys, all of you get out! I donât want to see you. Youâre all bad guys. You all want to kill me.â
Steven, âHannahâ¦â
Hannah, âThe medicine in this bottle has been tampered with!â
Steven, âHannah, if you donât trust that this medicine is safe, Iâll have it tested immediately.â
Hannah, âDonât touch it. Donât move. If you touch this medicine, who knows if youâve tampered with it.â
As long as Hannah could calm down, Steven would comply, âAlright, alright, I wonât touch it. So tell me, what do I need to do to earn your trust?â
Hannah, âHehe, as long as itâs related to you, I wonât believe it. Let me tell you, I pulled out the needle myself. You guys want to harm me, but I wonât let you succeed.â
A month ago, Hannah suffered such a severe injury, and now she was highly defensive towards people, which Steven could understand. âHannah, trust me one more time, alright? No one here wants to harm you.â
Hannah, âNelly, Nelly, save me. Please save me.â
Seeing Hannahâs state, Steven didnât dare to touch her. âRick, please bring Cornelia here.â
Rick, âCornelia is here. She just arrived downstairs.â
Steven, âThen quickly bring her up.â
Soon, Cornelia arrived. âSteven, whatâs going on?â
