Chapter 552 Vomiting Blood
Vincent stared coldly at Patricia and replied, “Yes, I did.”
There was nothing more to be said about it.
Lawrence released Scarlett and loosened his tie before delivering a vicious punch to Vincent.
“You heartless monster! You won’t even spare a four-year-old girl! She’s your niece! Are you even human? What have I ever done to you, you bastard?” Lawrence then kicked Vincent, causing him to crash to the ground.
As Lawrence reflected on the situation, he realized that Martha and Vincent were the ones who found Kelly. Kelly was also the one who relentlessly targeted Abigail, going to great lengths to harm his own daughter.
Tears streamed down Scarlett’s cheeks. “What a cursed family. How did I end up with a sister like you? The one who hurt my daughter is actually my own sister!”
After crying out in anguish, she clutched her ch*st frantically, struggling to catch her breath. Her face quickly turned pale.
Sean hurried over to support her. As she continued to grip the fabric above her heart, her brows furrowed in pain. “It’s my fault. It’s all my fault…”
Before she could finish speaking, she expelled a large mouthful of blood.
Lawrence rushed over to embrace her. “Scarlett…”
She leaned into his arms, still crying. “It’s my fault, Lawrence. I-I shouldn’t have been so focused on my work. I allowed the witch to harm our Abby… It’s my fault…”
Tears continued to roll down her cheeks.
Analise nudged Abigail.
Abigail reluctantly stepped forward to hold Scarlett’s hand.
Scarlett looked at her, tears streaming down her face. “Abby, my daughter… I’ve missed you. I miss you so much that I can’t sleep at all. My heart aches with fear. It’s my fault. I didn’t….. I didn’t protect you…”
“The doctor is here,” Josh announced.
Scarlett was placed on a stretcher. Even as her b*dy trembled, she held tightly onto Abigail’s
hand.

Abigail accompanied her into the hospital. Meanwhile, Lawrence anxiously said, “Abby’s back, Scarlett. You have to stay strong. Don’t leave us behind…”
Scarlett was wheeled into the operating theater.
Sean remained by Abigail’s side the entire time, not uttering a word.
Patricia’s mind went blank. She couldn’t comprehend how her family had reached this point.
“Mom…” Lily called out to Martha.
Martha silently wrapped her arms around Lily.
Josh took out his phone to call the police when Patricia suddenly declared, “We will wait for your grandfather to wake up before taking any action. No one is allowed to do anything until then!”
“If you insist on siding with Vincent, I want nothing to do with you. Since you can love and favor your second son, I can choose my daughter over you. I won’t forgive Martha and Vincent!” Lawrence’s eyes were bloodshot. “They destroyed my family, and now my wife is sick! There will be no peace between us!”
“Abby is back. They also know what they did was wrong…”
“Who said that? If they knew they were wrong, they wouldn’t have lied and claimed that Kelly was my sister!” Josh interjected.
“Josh, I’m talking to your father. Shut up!” Patricia snapped.
With anger in his eyes, Josh declared, “Abby is my sister. Our family is united. If you insist on helping my uncle, then we’ll see you in court!”
“You rebellious child!” Patricia scolded.
“Abby, you and Analise must be exhausted. Go to the hotel for now. Once your grandfather wakes up, you can visit him if you want. I won’t force you to see him.” Lawrence was also exhausted.
He was overwhelmed with emotions and no longer wanted to argue with Patricia
Abigail silently pondered for a few moments. I’ll wait a little longer
She then turned to Sean “Take Grandma to the hotel room so she can rest
“Aby, do you want me to stay here with you? Analise gently asked, holding Abigail’s trembling hands

“It’s fine. You’re not like me. You’re already exhausted from traveling. Go get some rest first.” Abigail smiled in response.
“Sean, stay here and take care of her. Luna can take me to the hotel,” Analise said, releasing Abigail’s hands.
Abigail didn’t object. She simply looked down and pressed her hands together.
Luna and Josh escorted Analise out of the hospital.

group waited for news outside the operating theater.
Finally, Cameron arrived. Sean looked at him and instructed, “Get your boss a cup of warm
water.”
Abigail had lost all warmth in her b*dy.
Sean knew she was scared. She was terrified that Scarlett might not make it. Despite her previous animosity towards Scarlett, once the misunderstanding was cleared, she still considered Scarlett her mother. She might not feel love for her, but it was a fact that Scarlett had gone through a few tough years.
Cameron poured her a cup of warm, honeyed water.
Abigail wrapped her hands around the cup, her trembling intensifying.
“Sean…” she called out helplessly.
Sean quickly took the cup from her and enveloped her in a tight embrace.
Although her face appeared numb, her b*dy had been shaking the entire time.
She didn’t understand why this was happening. She had considered many possible outcomes. The worst-case scenario was that her parents didn’t want her. Perhaps she was kidnapped when she was young….
However, she never imagined this possibility.
Her own aunt had plotted against her, pushing her into the ocean.
Her parents had suffered for over 20 years, enduring intense agony, while she had forgotten about the scariest moment of her life.
She nestled into his arms, finally unable to hold back the tears streaming down her face.
She didn’t know why she was crying. All she knew was that she was in immense pain.
