Chapter 230
“That area was a CCTV blind spot,” Jerome said.
Mikayla couldn’t help but sneer. “Are you implying that I stole the medicine, and replaced Ms. White’s medicine with it in the car?”
Jerome remained silent.
She scoffed, and continued. “Even if I did steal it, I had no idea what kind of medicine she needs. How could I possibly prepare what she’s incompatible with?”
“You don’t even have to! You knew for certain that she’d buy antibiotics due to her inflamed forehead
wound!” Carter roared.
Mikayla frowned and shot a glare at Jerome. “Is that what you think as well?”
Jerome furrowed his brows.
But before he could begin, Carter could no longer bear it.
“You’re one ruthless bitch! What did Kylie ever do to you that you’ve been tirelessly trying to murder her?”
Carter raised his hand.
He was about to land a slap on her face when Jerome stopped him instantly.
“Mr. White, don’t get so worked up,” Jerome said.

“How could I not be? Kylie’s my only daughter! She’s so gentle, and she has never raised her voice a anyone. I don’t understand why your wife is so nasty toward her, to the point that she’s trying to harm her!
“Poor Kylie! She doesn’t even dare to call you when she’s suffering, so she dialed the ambulance on her own to be rushed to the hospital. That’s how I learned what happened to her…” Carter’s voice trailed off, and he suddenly broke into tears.
“If something bad happens to Kylie, how am I supposed to face her late mother…
“Dad, stop it,” Kylie sobbed. “I’m fine now, aren’t I?”
“That’s because you’re lucky! The doctor said if you weren’t admitted in the nick of time, you’d be dead!”
The more Carter rambled, the more distressed he felt. He charged at Mikayla as he bellowed, “Take it out on me instead! Don’t you dare hurt my daughter!”
“Dad, don’t!” Kylie jerked up, but her body gave in.
She was already having an IV drip. Her sudden moment caused a jolt of pain to suddenly shoot up through her.
She winced and almost knocked her head against the edge of the bedside table.
Jerome sprang forward, shielding her from being injured again.

Meanwhile, Mikayla’s leg instinctively shot up at Carter due to his sudden attack.
“Ouch!” he yelled as he didn’t expect her to fight back.
He staggered backward, and collapsed to the ground heavily.
“Dad!”
“Mr. White.”
Both Jerome and Kylie exclaimed in shock.
When Jerome approached Carter, Kylie attempted to get out of bed. Yet, she tumbled to the ground.
“Stop moving around!” Jerome stopped midway to help her up.
“Ignore me. Go and take a look at Dad.”
Kylie intended to push him away while she held onto the gurney. However, for that.
i was too wa
She lost her balance and fell once again. The gurney slid toward Mikayla’s direction.
Mikayla instinctively dodged to the side to avoid it, yet she accidentally bumped into the trash can next to
the elevator.
She also lost her balance and toppled over.
As she splayed her hands out to prop herself up, a sharp jolt of pain struck her. The fireproof gravel spread on top of the trash can dug into her skin.
“Argh!” Kylie screamed in agony before Jerome could even check on Mikayla. The syringe attached to her forearm was yanked off because the gurney skidded.
Her forearm began to bleed, and the series of unfortunate events caused her vigor to seep out of her
quickly.
Her body went limp, and she was on the verge of losing consciousness
“Come help!” Jerome ordered the nurses in the corridor as he hoisted Kylie up.
