Chapter 245
Lily’s tense body finally relaxed. The car sped along the highway as she leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes. The cold air around her seemed to fade away. Loid pulled her into his arms, and she immediately curled up in his embrace. Unlike her usual strong self, she looked very vulnerable now.
Loid gently patted her back and comforted her softly, “I’m here.”
Lily didn’t respond, but Lold felt a slight warmth against his chest.
He sighed softly. He knew that the only thing that could shatter Lily’s pride and strength was Belinda. He couldn’t bear to imagine what would happen it Belinda didn’t make it.
The car was silent. Even Sham, who was typically chatty, remained quiet. He understood that Lily was in no mood for conversation and didn’t want to add to her stress.
Lily remained huddled in Loid’s embrace, her eyes closed but her mind alert. She feared any further bad news from the hospital.
Loid kept an eye on his phone and monitored the situation in the operating room. Belinda was out of immediate danger for now, and several doctors were keeping watch of her.
Suddenly, Loid’s eyes narrowed, and he shouted, “Daniel, speed up!”
His sudden outburst startled everyone in the car. Lily jolted up abruptly and locked her eyes on the video. She snatched the phone from Loid, her fingers grippling it tightly. Her eyes were blazing with fury.
In the video, a group of masked intruders had burst into the operating room, Winston and Anthony were shot and fell to the ground. The attackers used a silencer. Hence, the people in the room were killed before even having the chance to shout for help.
One of the intruders approached Belinda. He then pulled out a photo, compared it to her, and nodded. “It’s her.”
Another guy raised a gun and almed it directly at Belinda. The next second, a bang was heard.
“No!” Lily screamed, her eyes turning red with rage. She resembled a wild beast.
She pounded on the car door frantically. “Stop the car!”
Unaware of what was happening, Daniel glanced back at Lily. “Ms. Brooks, I’m already driving as fast as I can. We’ll be there in 40 minutes.”
“I said, stop the car!” Lily shouted, lunging for the steering wheel.
Shaun quickly intervened and stopped her. He had seen the video. Knowing the gravity of the situation, he didn’t dare to speak.
Loid pulled Lily back and held her tightly. He said in a trembling voice, “Grandma will be fine. I’ll arrange for someone to check on her. Please, stay calm
“Yes. Mr. Laurier has his men at the hospital. I’ll call them right now,” Shaun hurriedly said and pulled out his phone to make the call.
After several attempts, no one answered.
He turned to Loid, his expression grim. “No one’s picking up. I think…”
Damn it!
Shaun punched the car door in frustration. Despite all the precautions they had taken, someone still managed to break into the hospital and attack Belinda It was a direct blow to his competence.
Loid’s eyes narrowed, his expression darkening

Lily had smashed her phone in her earlier outburst. The video call was disconnected, and they had no idea what was the situation in the operating room.
“Let go of me!” Laly looked up, her eyes burning with rage. She glared at Loid with an extremely dark expression.
Loid felt a sharp pain in his chest. He didn’t want her to hate him.
He loosened his grip instinctively, and Lily immediately pushed the car door open. She was ready to jump out despite the speeding vehicle.
Suddenly, her phone rang
She glanced at the caller ID with narrowed eyes. After a moment, she closed the car door and answered the call indiferently.
