Chapter 757
Upon receiving the news, Shona rushed to her side. Since her marriage, Shona had been contently pregnant and
nesting at home.
Upon reaching the hospital, she found the doctors examining Brittany.
The long exposure to the chill of the freezer had greatly depleted Brittany’s strength. After a thorough checkup, the
doctors recommended Brittany be admitted for treatment.
After waiting for the doctors to leave, Shona approached Brittany’s bedside. “I’m sorry I’m late.”
Brittany was leaning against the headboard as her left hand pressed against the bandage from a recent blood test.
Her pale face was worn with exhaustion. “Ms. Bennett, I’m sorry to have you come all the way here.”
Shona, heavy with child, found it inconvenient to stand.
She set down the bouquet of sunflowers, which were Brittany’s favorite, that she carried.
wanted to tell you a long time ago. But Mr. Salter thought that even if you knew, it would still create a rift between
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou two, so he didn’t want me to say anything.”
Brittany paused. “So, I was really poisoned?”
“Yes, according to the tests at the time, you were indeed poisoned.” Shona was equally puzzled. “Given what I know
about you, you shouldn’t have been exposed to these toxins. Five years ago, did you have contact with anyone
suspicious? And also, how were you able to recover after going abroad?”
Shona had been pondering over this for a long time but couldn’t figure it out.
Brittany shook her head. “Five years ago, I don’t know if I had contact with anyone suspicious. When I was
overseas, I fell into the sea and was bedridden for a long time.”
When she woke up, only William was by her side.
Shona understood. “Ms. Dustin, I have told you everything about what happened five years ago without hiding
anything. You should think carefully; it seems that Mr. Salter is sincere to you.”
As an outsider, Shona saw things more clearly than Brittany.
Isaac might have done some things wrong, but when it came to Brittany, he was beyond reproach.
Brittany knew that Shona was telling the truth. She lifted her hand now that the puncture wound had stopped
bleeding.
Her eyes were downcast, and she exuded a weak aura. Shona couldn’t help but sigh. No wonder Isaac couldn’t stop
thinking about her after so many years. Who could resist such a striking beauty?
“Ms. Bennett, thank you for telling me all this.” Brittany leaned against the headboard and slowly said.
As Shona left, she turned back to say, “Ms. Dustin, I have investigated your grandmother’s case.”
“Even if Mr. Salter hadn’t blocked the news back then, Leda wouldn’t have donated her kidney. Mr. Salter tried his
best to help your grandmother find a kidney source, but no one expected that kind of accident.”
The person directly responsible for Donna’s death was Robert. Isaac was not innocent in this matter, but Shona felt
that he had done his best to make amends.
Brittany remained silent. It seemed that she had taken in what Shona said.
Three hours after Shona left the hospital, Brittany pressed the call button.
“Ms. Dustin, do you need anything?” The nurse rushed over, fearing that Brittany was feeling unwell.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Please prepare a wheelchair for me. I want to visit the ICU.”
Knowing Brittany’s status, the nurse didn’t dare delay and swiftly prepared a wheelchair and assisted Brittany out of
bed.
Brittany hadn’t fully recovered yet. Her legs felt weak and feeble. The nurse pushed her wheelchair to the ICU.
The Salter family was waiting outside.
Grace looked haggard. It seemed she had been informed about Isaac’s condition the moment it happened and
hadn’t slept a wink since.
After hearing the sound of the wheelchair, Grace instinctively looked up and quickly approached Brittany.
“Bri, why are you here? How are you feeling now?”
After seeing the concern on Grace’s face, Brittany/felt a bit dazed.
Ever since Joie’s appearance, there had been a rift between her and Grace. Even though Grace tried to mend their
relationship after their reunion, Brittany couldn’t let go of the grudge.
“Grace, I’m sorry.”
