“Cough… cough…” Marcus’s breath came in short pants again. His entire being gave off an
oppressively sinister aura.
“Perhaps it’s better that you die. You good-for-nothing would spare me a lot of trouble if you’re dead.
“As your father, I didn’t educate you well. It’s my fault. You rest in peace.”
After seeing his son’s body, Marcus hobbled away with the help of his assistant.
“Pass the word around. This is an accidental death from a fall. And tell the police to stop investigating.”
“Yes, Mr. Yanice.”
Marcus knew who the murderer was, so there was no point in investigating further. Since Bruce had the
audacity to kill his son, it meant that he had a way to get away with it.
Relying on the police to avenge his son would not work. Besides, if the news of Marlowe kidnapping
Lilia got out, it would provoke more public outrage.
It was best to avenge his son in secret and not put it on the table.
After all, a ruthless man would not make his intention known.
Ritz Villa.
After Bruce escaped, he brought Lilia back to the villa with burning anxiety.
The girl was bitten by a dog. Blood was oozing out of a six-inch gaping wound with visible teeth marks
on her slender calf.
“Doctors! Doctors! Get over here!”
“What’s happened?” Mr. Carter and Dr. Down hurried over.
Both of them were terrified when they saw Lilia’s wound.
With a worried expression on his face, Bruce anxiously carried his
daughter over. “Doctors, Lilia has been bitten by a dog. Quickly give her a rabies vaccine.”

“Oh, okay. Put her on the bed and let me check her injury.”
Bruce’s face was grave. As he placed Lilia on the bed, he comforted his daughter gently. “Lilia, don’t be
afraid. I’ll always be by your side and protect you.”
Seeing his daughter hurt badly, he was heartbroken. He would fight whoever harm his daughter to
death.
“Daddy, Mommy…” Lilia was in shock and had started to have a high fever and become delirious.
“I’ll tell my assistant to get the rabies vaccine from the hospital now.”
Even though they were not at the hospital, Bruce had invited all the best doctors in Greyport over Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
because of Joanna.
A few doctors and experts were carefully treating Lilia’s wound.
Lilia was born with a congenital leg defect and later suffered from Heukemia. She was originally in poor
health.
The only reason she could survive until now was that she came from a wealthy family. Every year, the
amount of money spent on her treatment alone was more than two million dollars. If she had been born
into an ordinary family who couldn’t afford such expensive medical fees, she would probably have
died.
Joanna could deeply relate to the families with sick children. Therefore, she set up the Disabled
Children’s Fund and the Seriously Ill Children’s Fund.
The Haynes Group would donate 20% of their annual profits to charity.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
She was willing to help as many people as she could. Kindness wasn’t a gift but a choice.
“Ah… It hurts, Daddy, it hurts so much..” Lilia groaned in pain. Her body started to twitch uncontrollably,
and white foam gushed out of her mouth.
Bruce was horrified and kept stroking his daughter’s head with his hand. “Lilia, Lilia. Doctors, what’s
with my daughter?”
Dr. Down was in shock. He quickly went forward and grabbed Lilia’s jaw to prevent her from biting her
tongue. “Miss Lilia has a panic attack and

it triggers an epilepsy seizure.”
Another doctor hurriedly went over to unbutton Lilia’s clothes. Then, he laid her on her side on the
pillow so she could breathe properly.
When Bruce heard that, his heart skipped a beat and tears escaped his
eyes.
In the ward, his wife was lying on the bed on the left, and his daughter was lying on the right.
He suddenly felt an intense tightening in his chest and could not breathe.
“Lilia, I’m sorry. I failed to protect you
“Honey, I’m sorry. I’m so useless, so useless…” Bruce’s heart was in immense pain but there was
nothing he could do about it.
“Boohoo, Joann. Boohoo…” He broke down and wept bitterly in Joanna’s
arms.
