"I’m here to change Miss Hart’s IV." After saying this, the mysterious person quickly exited the ward. "Oh." The nurse nodded thoughtfully, "Wait a minute, isn’t changing the IV the nurses’ responsibility?" Realizing this, the nurse reacted quickly and ran out, "Something’s wrong..." The next second, Jessica Hart’s monitor started to alarm. Hearing the shout, Zachary Sutton and the others, who hadn’t gone far, quickly ran back. Zachary Sutton and Sean Sinclair rushed into the ward, only to see Jessica Hart’s monitor blaring frantically, her vital signs becoming extremely unstable. The nurses scrambled to rescue her, while the mysterious person took advantage of the chaos to escape. "What’s going on?" Zachary Sutton quickly asked. A nurse hurriedly replied, "Just now someone dressed in a doctor’s outfit, wearing a mask, said he came to change Miss Hart’s IV. By the time I realized it, he had already run away. Then Miss Hart’s vital signs started showing problems." Upon hearing this, Zachary Sutton’s face drastically changed, and he shouted loudly, "Quick, we must catch that person!" Sean Sinclair rushed to the bedside, looking at Jessica Hart with a face full of anxiety and worry, "Jessica, you must hold on!" The hospital immediately plunged into chaos, doctors and nurses fully engaged in rescuing Jessica Hart while security personnel searched everywhere for traces of the mysterious person. However, the mysterious person seemed to have been prepared and soon vanished without a trace. At this moment, Jessica Hart’s finger moved, her eyes slightly opened, and her mouth opened as if she wanted to say something. Sean Sinclair hurriedly leaned over the bedside, holding her hand, nervously saying, "Jessica, what do you want to say?" "I..." Jessica Hart moved her lips, "it’s... it’s..." "Jessica, what are you trying to say? Speak louder, I can’t hear you." Sean Sinclair leaned closer to her, trying hard to hear what she was saying. The next second, Jessica Hart’s eyes widened, a tear slid down from her eye. Immediately, Jessica Hart’s monitor emitted beeping sounds. "It’s not good; her vital signs are declining," a doctor said while resuscitating her and instructing the nurses to continuously administer medication. Soon, Jessica Hart closed her eyes, and the screen of the monitor in front of her turned into a straight line. "Jessica..." Seeing this, Sean Sinclair’s tears burst forth. Sean Sinclair, overwhelmed with grief, tightly held Jessica Hart’s hand, refusing to let go. Zachary Sutton stood aside, his expression solemn. "Didn’t expect the killer would succeed," Zachary Sutton said regretfully, punching the wall, "The killer was hiding in the ward just now, and we didn’t even notice." Sean Sinclair slowly lifted his head, his eyes full of anger. "We must find the killer and avenge Jessica." Zachary Sutton nodded, immediately arranging for the hospital to be sealed off to investigate all suspicious personnel. At the same time, he reported Jessica Hart’s death to Caden Hawthorne. Upon learning of Jessica Hart’s death, Caden Hawthorne’s eyebrows furrowed. He knew the situation had become more complicated. Follow current novels on NovєlFіre.net "Continue the investigation; we must find the killer," Caden Hawthorne ordered Zachary Sutton. Zachary Sutton left to begin a thorough investigation of the hospital’s surveillance footage and everyone who had contact with Jessica Hart. In the hospital, Sean Sinclair remained immersed in grief. He couldn’t accept that Jessica Hart had left this world just like that. "Jessica, why were you so foolish? Why did you walk down this wrong path?" Sean Sinclair muttered to himself. "What? Jessica Hart is dead?" Upon hearing this news, Vivian Lynch instinctively took a step back, almost losing her balance. Riley Hawthorne quickly supported her, saying nervously, "Sister-in-law, don’t get too excited; be careful for the child’s sake." Caden Hawthorne also rushed over to support Vivian Lynch, holding her hand tightly, with a concerned expression, "Vivian, are you alright?" Vivian Lynch couldn’t help feeling a chill down her back, "This is too terrifying; who killed Jessica Hart?" She always felt that Jessica Hart was merely a scapegoat, and the real killer was still at large. Thinking of this, Vivian Lynch couldn’t help but feel a chill down her spine. Although Jessica Hart had harmed her in the past, she didn’t wish to see such an ending. Jessica Hart had also been used by others, leading to this unreturnable path, but she didn’t deserve to die! "The killer is still being pursued. Vivian, don’t worry, I will definitely find out who is behind this," Caden Hawthorne said. Riley Hawthorne also added, "Sister-in-law, don’t worry, with my brother here, everything will be fine." Vivian Lynch slightly nodded, but the unease in her heart was still difficult to dispel. She knew that the hidden killer could strike again at any time, and they must find this person as soon as possible to truly be safe. Caden Hawthorne began investigating the cause of Jessica Hart’s death more deeply. He instructed Zachary Sutton to carefully review the hospital’s monitoring footage, not missing a single detail. At the same time, he also sent people to investigate Jessica Hart’s interpersonal relationships during her lifetime, hoping to find possible clues. During the investigation, Caden Hawthorne discovered some peculiarities in Jessica Hart’s contact list. Prior to the incident, Jessica Hart seemed to frequently contact a mysterious phone number. The source of this phone number is untraceable, and now it’s unreachable, turned into a void number, making the situation even more confusing. Caden Hawthorne decided to start from this mysterious phone number to see if it could provide any clues. He instructed the technical team to analyze the phone signal characteristics, attempting to locate the caller’s position. Hawthorne Group, president’s office. "Master Hawthorne, after investigation, the person using this phone number is in Aethelgard." Hearing Zachary Sutton’s words, Caden Hawthorne couldn’t help rolling his eyes, "Nonsense, if they’re not from Aethelgard, would they be able to kill so quickly to silence?" Zachary Sutton rubbed his chin, thinking Caden Hawthorne’s words made sense, "Who exactly is the mastermind behind this? Who did sister-in-law offend to the extent of hiring a murderer? It’s truly terrifying." Caden Hawthorne couldn’t help but clench his fist, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes, "We must quickly find the killer; Vivian won’t be safe as long as she’s around." "We’ve pulled all the hospital’s surveillance, yet the person managed to run away. From the footage, this person kept wearing a mask, dressed in hospital uniforms from the moment he entered the hospital. The police also checked nearby surveillance, only capturing him getting off from an unlicensed black car, determining his height to be around one hundred eighty centimeters, and he’s quite agile, likely someone well-trained." Caden Hawthorne squinted slightly, deep in thought. "It seems this killer is very cautious and has certain counter-surveillance capabilities. Continue to expand the search range, investigating all possible clues. Additionally, strengthen the protection around Vivian; don’t let her suffer any more harm." Zachary Sutton nodded, immediately arranging the next steps. Caden Hawthorne sat at the office desk, brow furrowed, contemplating the identity and motive of the mysterious killer.
