Chapter 2639

Meanwhile, the doctors and nurses who were stationed outside the operation theater heard the commotion and busted inside.

“She suddenly vomited blood and then fainted. Her vitals are stable, we might need a further examination to find out the cause…/ Martin instructed from his deductions following the examination.

As Martin had no proper equipment in his disposal, he had no choice but to diagnose her based on his experiences and leave the rest to the hospital for more accurate results.

“Okay,” the doctor replied as he and his nurses rushed to push Chloe to the Emergency Room.

Miley followed closely from behind, and the operation theater soon fell silent once more.

“Dad, what should we do with this person?” Karen asked, as she pointed at, ‘Ghost Hand,’ the imposter.

“Leave him to the police. We’ll wait until Chloe wakes up before we proceed with anything else.” Mr. Riddle Sr. sighed.

Dillion knew that it was useless to refute, instead he soothed Mr. Riddle Sr., “Why don’t you head back and get some rest first?”

“Yeah, Dad. You must be exhausted. Go back and have some rest first,” agreed Damien.

However, it was as clear as day that the two brothers still had a score to settle.

It was then that Dillion shot a glance at Damien and continued, “Don’t worry. I’ll stay here and take care of things.

If there are any new updates, I’ll be the first to inform you.”

Hearing that, Damien immediately turned over to glare at Dillion.

However, Dillion remained unfazed. ‘I can’t let these people step right over me.’

“Grandpa, I think it’s best that you head back to get some rest,” Nicole advised, noticing that Mr. Riddle Sr. was not looking too good.

“Okay,” Mr. Riddle Sr. agreed, heeding what she had to say.

Besides, there was no point in him staying there either.

“Mr. Riddle Sr., let’s get going/ Alfred said as he helped Mr. Riddle Sr. out of the hospital.

“Uncle Dillion, Aunt Karen? Are you guys intending on staying here?” Nicole asked as she looked at the two of them.

In response, Dillon nodded. “Yes, we’ll stay here and keep an eye on things.

Don’t worry, we’ll be able to handle it.”

With that said, it was quite obvious that Dillion was determined to keep his eye on Damien. He had to see what Damien was going to do during a time like this.

“Okay. In that case, you guys can stay,” Nicole said, and strode out of the room with Martin by her side.

This took Dillion aback, who stood still for a moment.’ That… was easy?’

“Hey, what do you think you’re doing? Running away?” Karen’s voice echoed through the room, snapping Dillion back to his senses.

Dillion quickly whirled around to see that ‘Ghost Hand’ was trying to slip away.

“We’ve already called the cops. They’ll be here in no time. I’d suggest you cooperate, or you’ll be in for some jail time.”

“I’m begging you guys to let me go. I really am not sure of what is going on here,” the fake Ghost Hand pleaded.

He was trembling. All he wanted to do was to make a quick buck, and yet it had all blown up in his face.

“You can tell that to the cops later,” Karen said, having no intention of letting the fake Ghost Hand go.

It was not long before the police arrived and arrested the imposter, during which Dillion and Karen both issued a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, Damien was fuming mad at the sight of Dillion and Karen walking away.

‘Those two must’ve stayed here deliberately to dig a bigger hole for us to die in.

What benefit could they reap out of this?

‘ Damien wondered.

Meanwhile, Nicole and Martin had just gotten into the car.

“What are you thinking about?” Martin asked Nicole.

“I think I might’ve overestimated myself,” Nicole replied with a blank, emotionless look.

‘Chloe vomiting blood and passing out might be real, but she could have induced it herself,’ she thought.

Martin’s expression darkened. “I noticed her pulse was irregular when I was performing the basic checkup on her. It’s very likely that she might’ve taken something before this.”

Nicole sneered. “I think so as well.”

Nicole had not foreseen that such an occurrence would happen, and on top of that, she did not anticipate that Chloe would go to such lengths to get what she wanted.
