Chapter 376
Marina was quickly transported into a truck.
There was professional medical equipment in the truck, and doctors as well. It was like an
ambulance.
As soon as she got into the truck, someone began treating her. An oxygen mask was placed on her nose, and she took in large gulps of air.
She wasn’t quite conscious, and her eyes couldn’t focus. She could only see a few people tending to her wounds.
She had lost a lot of blood, so she knew that she would die for sure.
Many memories surfaced in Marina’s mind. Her last memories were of Chloe looking weak and powerless, and that day when she pushed Olivia off the ship.
She felt like she saw the snow dancing in the air again, and the cold sea breeze blew the snowflakes right at her.
The sea was very cold that night. Olivia lost her child because of that.
This was probably Marina’s punishment for hurting others.
But Marina didn’t understand why she would do this.
The truck stopped moving at an unknown location. Then, the people moved Marina’s b*dy out of the truck.
Marina still hadn’t fainted throughout the ordeal. She knew that she would see that person again. She just wanted to ask that woman why she had to be treated this way.
Roses filled Marina’s vision. The woman was wearing a black cocktail dress. Her bare legs were crossed.
Her skin was fair, and her figure was slender and charming.
She had exquisite makeup on her face. She lazily gazed at Marina.
Marina was wearing the oxygen mask, and her l*ps trembled. Her breaths turned into white fog that spread across the mask, and her voice was so small that no one could hear her.
Standing up, the woman glided toward her. She didn’t look the least bit compa*sionate when she saw the bloodied Marina.
Marina reached out, trying to grab the woman’s wrist. But her hand was too weak.
The woman curved her l*ps into a charming smile. “Let me guess. You want to know if I had
arranged the traffic accident, right?”
Her nails were painted with red polish. Her fingers touched Marina’s face. “Yes, it was me. I’ve already reminded you, but you’re the one who disobeyed. Disobedient children should be punished.”
Marina’s eyes widened. She could hardly believe the truth, for it had completely overturned her understanding.
Beside her, the man told her about the examination results. She had compound fractures on her b*dy, and the gla*s on her ch*st was the most dangerous injury.
They had to get the gla*s out with an operation as soon as possible.
The woman waved her hand. “Take it out, then. No need for anesthetics. She should watch it with her own eyes.”
Marina raised her hand to express her dissatisfaction. The woman sneered. “Are you curious why I would treat you like this? That’s because…”
The woman leaned in and whispered in Marina’s ear.
Marina’s expression shifted. She reached out to take off her oxygen mask, and her fingers touched the gla*s in her chest. She looked like she wanted to pull it out to kill both the woman and herself.
But she had no energy, so she couldn’t do anything. The woman looked quite pleased. “Enjoy what it feels like to wish you were dead!”
Marina was taken away. The woman even told them, “You don’t have to be too nice to her. Just make sure she’s still alive.”
“Understood.”
The woman casually picked a random rose that was blooming vibrantly. Holding it to her nose, she took in its scent. “What a wonderful day.”
young woman walked out of the shadows. She was wearing a white dress, and she had long lowing hair.
ler face was pretty and exquisite. Her eyes were identical to Ethan’s.
he walked out from among the roses. She was so beautiful that she looked like she had walked ut of a painting.
topping before the woman, she said in a respectful tone, “Madam, we just received the news. he head of the Carltons, Chris Carlton, wants to see you.”
Chris, huh…”
Chapter 375
The woman smiled. “Sure. Arrange a time for me.”
The young lady was a little stunned. She didn’t expect the woman to agree so readily
The woman seemed to be in a good mood, She let go of the rose. The petals flew in the air as she stepped mercilessly on it.
“Understood.”
The woman patted her on the shoulder.
“Remember this, Leia. Once you walk down this path, you won’t have the chance to turn back anymore. Even your brother will be no more than a stranger to the likes of us.”
The young lady lowered her gaze, her long eyelashes hiding the shadow in her eyes. Like a puppet void of expression, she said, “I understand.”
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
