Chapter 965:

“This can’t be happening!” Evita’s eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn’t accept that Madisyn had actually healed Marcus.

The revelation that Madisyn had medical expertise, far surpassing that of the doctor Evita had brought, was completely unexpected to her. Recalling Madisyn’s claims when she first entered the hospital room, Evita gripped the hem of her dress, overwhelmed by a sense of injustice.

Frustration wasn’t exclusive to Evita; her friend, who had always boasted about her medical knowledge, now found herself overshadowed by the younger Madisyn. It was clear that Madisyn had been the one to wake Marcus from unconsciousness, and Lauren quickly helped him sit up while explaining what had happened.

Grateful, Marcus looked at Madisyn, piecing together details he had missed before. It was Madisyn who had saved him back then. So why had they all thought it was Evita?

“Miss Gordon, there’s something I’d like to ask you,” Marcus said, his gaze locking onto Evita.

Facing Marcus’s intense stare, Evita’s pulse quickened, and her mind raced for an escape. Lauren, sensing the tension, subtly signaled his assistants to secure the exit.

Realizing she was trapped, Evita forced a strained smile, trying her best to maintain composure. “Mr. Vaughn, I’m relieved to see you awake. Let’s save discussions for later; you need to rest.”

“I need answers right now,” Marcus insisted, his eyes drilling into her.

“It wasn’t until now that I came to realize that it was actually Miss Johns who saved me on the street. Miss Gordon, why did you say it was you?”

As Evita realized that Marcus had already figured out the truth, a wave of anger surged within her. Madisyn had thwarted her plans again!

Lauren was shocked by Marcus’s revelation. Madisyn was the hero from back then? That was hard to believe.

With a curious raise of her eyebrow, Madisyn pondered Marcus’s unusual kindness toward Evita all this time. Could this be the reason? Both Madisyn and Lauren chose not to speak.

Evita’s hands balled into fists as she frantically searched for a way out. Marcus was clearly annoyed with her now, and confessing that she had taken credit for Madisyn’s deed would only anger him further. Her face tensed as Evita concocted a plausible explanation.

“Mr. Vaughn, what are you talking about? I indeed found you unconscious at the roadside and got you to the hospital. You shouldn’t overlook my help just because Madisyn was your savior today,” she argued.

Evita’s deception did not fool Marcus. “Could you explain to me how you managed to save me that day? I’m curious about every detail.”

Panic surged through Evita. “At the roadside, I found you unconscious, quickly looked for your medication, fed it to you, and applied some basic first aid techniques before taking you to the hospital,” she said, deliberately blurring the specifics.
