He forcefully yanked off the womanâs blanket as he pinched at her legsâ suture points.
âAhh!â
Instantly, Kira let out a sharp wail from the pain.
Devin was dumbstruck.
When he regained his composure, Devin realized that the manâs fingers were about to penetrate
through Kiraâs suture points, so he threw away the medicine in his hands right away.
âSolomon, what the hell are you doing? Let her go!â Devin bellowed as he dashed over to stop the
man.
However, Solomon, who was wearing a pair of glasses, shot Devin a daggered look and gave him a
chilling smile.
âI thought that the famed Devin Jadeson was someone with guts. I didnât think that youâre merely a
puppet of your family.â
âWhat did you say?â
âDid I say anything wrong? This vicious woman just chopped off another personâs legs, and yet
ironically enough, youâre here tending to her wound.
âAnd did you know what happened to your woman when she was on the way to Clear? Sheâs pregnant
with your child, but she was almost killed by the people this vicious woman hired to assassinate her
while you took care of this b*tch!â
He gritted every word through his teeth in utter disdain.
Disappointment was written all over Solomonâs face as he mocked Devin.
Devin was thunderstruck.
Pregnant? What is he talking about?
The shocking news made Devinâs mind go blank.
As the woman who was wailing in pain struggled, a murderous glint flashed in her bloodshot eyes.
The next second, she let out a shriek.
âIâm going to kill you!â
She yanked off the needle on her IV tube and aimed it at Solomon.
Seeing that, Solomon tried to dodge her, but the familiar buzzing sound in his head rang again.
As a result, he staggered for a moment and did not manage to dodge Kira in time. A muted sound was
heard as the needle pierced through Solomonâs neck.
A pin-drop silence ensued.
The culprit and Devin, who was still in a daze, stared at him wide-eyed in disbelief.
They had ample reasons to be that surprised though, seeing as even a child would have easily dodged
the attack, much less an adult like Solomon.
Hence, it came as a surprise that Solomon failed to do so.
Soon, they realized that the worst was yet to come. Even though Solomon covered his neck, they could
clearly see that blood was seeping through his fingers before he slumped to the floor.
âSolomon!â
Devin finally snapped out of his daze and hurriedly dashed over to steady the man.
However, Solomon was already drifting in and out of consciousness as his blood continued to pour out
of his wound.
âSolomon! Solomon!â
âShe⦠sheâs at Clear. The ch-child is all right. Donât you dare mistreat her again. She i-is not that
bright, but sheâs always been loyal to youâ¦â
In the end, those were the last words Solomon said before he passed out.
He said Sabrinaâs not bright, but sheâs loyal to me.
He used the word âloyalâ.
Yes. compared to other women who only coveted the power and status of the Jadesons, Sabrina is as
innocent as a child. She only cares about me and nothing more. What have I done?
Devin only realized his grave mistake right then.
He pressed down hard on Solomonâs neck as he tried to stop the bleeding. At that moment, he felt a
panic attack like never before as he shouted, âHelp! Somebody, please!â
The woman on the bed turned pale as a ghost at the bloody sight before her.
Solomon is one the Hayeses!
Sasha and Sebastian had just arrived at Clear when they heard the news.
âWhat did you say? What happened to Solomon?â
Sebastian turned grim after hearing what had happened to Solomon.
The other person on the line then passed on another devastating message.
âHis carotid artery was severely injured after being stabbed by a needle. Even after being sent into the
emergency room, the doctors could not stop the profuse bleeding. Besides, the doctor also said that
seeing as Solomon was a final-stage leukemia patient⦠Sebastian, Iâ¦â
The person on the other end of the line could not bring himself to finish his sentence.
Sebastian boiled with rage after listening to him and bellowed, âDevin, you b*stard!â
It was the first time Sebastian reprimanded him.
Sashaâs heart sank as she listened to the conversation. After Sebastian hung up the call, she hurriedly
asked, âWhatâs the matter? What happened to Solomon?â
Sebastian took in a deep breath.
