Chapter 1988: Chapter 2202

Then, with a soft rustle, the door opened.

A woman, dressed as a nurse and wearing a mask, entered carrying a small medical tray.

Lucinda glanced briefly at her uniform and then returned her focus to feeding Colby.

“I didn’t ring for assistance.

What do you need?”

“Ma’am, it’s time for the baby’s medication,” the nurse announced.

“For his heart condition?” Lucinda inquired.

“Yes,” the nurse confirmed.

Lucinda frowned.

“But didn’t the doctor mention yesterday that the milder medication was out of stock and that we’d need a few days to assess his condition before deciding on further treatment?”

“Yes, that was the case,” the nurse replied, “but we’ve received the medication today from an overseas pharmacy.

Given that your son is a priority patient here, we acted immediately to administer it.

”

Lucinda eyed the nurse thoughtfully, a hint of suspicion in her demeanor.

After a moment, she nodded.

“Please hand me the medicine.

”

The nurse approached Lucinda respectfully and placed the medicine box from the tray onto her table.

While holding the baby in one arm, Lucinda continued to feed the baby with the milk bottle.

With her other hand, she reached for the medicine box on the table.

The nurse stood by silently.

Before she touched the box, Lucinda felt that something was amiss.

“No, it should be the attending physician who administers the medicine to my baby on the first day.

Even if the medicine is prepared, the physician must review the prescription and discuss it with me personally, rather than sending a nurse.

”

Suddenly, she turned her head and asked the nurse, “What are you here for?”

The nurse’s eyes showed clear malice.

As Lucinda turned to face her, the nurse swiftly pulled out an anesthesia needle hidden behind her and plunged it forcefully into Lucinda’s neck.

Since Lucinda was holding the baby, she found it challenging to defend herself with only one hand, while the nurse exploited her advantage of using both hands.

The needle sank into Lucinda’s neck.

She clenched her teeth and kicked the nurse forcefully.

The nurse stumbled back two steps, and fortunately, the anesthetic hadn’t been injected yet.

A faint red mark appeared on Lucinda’s fair skin, with a trickle of blood emerging.

Her movements were so abrupt that little Colby in her arms became uncomfortable and started to cry.

At that moment, Lucinda didn’t have time to soothe Colby.

She quickly placed him back in the crib and covered him with a gauze.

Then, she engaged in a struggle with the woman in the nurse’s uniform.

Lucinda was skilled in jujitsu, holding a black belt.

Without holding the baby, she quickly overpowered the nurse.

She pinned the woman down with an arm-lock against the table and asked in a stern voice, “Who sent you here? What have you done to the policemen outside?”
