Chapter 719

Military Hospital.

On the day of Charlotte's engagement party, she had a miscarriage on

the spot and was transferred to the military hospital immediately.

She almost had a hemorrhage, and eventually, she had an emergency

surgery and was kept in the ICU for ten days for observation.

She was transferred to the general ward only today.

She underestimated the consequences before she rolled down the

stairs. She thought it would be easy, and paid a heavy price herself for

setting Joyce up.

The doctor said they had to have one of her fallopian tubes removed

and her uterine lining became very thin due to the miscarriage.

The chances of getting pregnant naturally in the future would be

reduced by half.

She was in a coma for the first few days in the ICU.

It was mainly because of her obscene video with Ricky, which for her

was too big a blow for her.

The mental breakdown led to a slow recovery.

The fact that she would never be able to marry Luther again was

depressing enough for her, and she had been just lying there lifelessly

every day and did nothing more than that.

Every time when Cecelia came into the ICU to visit her, she pretended

to be asleep.

For the time being, she hadn't figured out how she should explain to

her loving Cecelia.

Today, the nurse transferred her to the general ward.

After ten days, she was finally able to sit up on her own. Isolated from

the world for ten days, she had no idea what was going on outside.

She picked up her phone.

She wanted to check the news but eventually felt a deep fear.

Her own scandal was exposed and she completely had no idea what to

do now.

She took a deep breath and took a look at the headlines anyway. She

started browsing through the recent news.

As she read more and more, her eyes widened in disbelief!

In just ten days, such a big change had happened!

"The Henderson family bank held a press conference today in which

Justin Henderson announced that he would withdraw all financing for

R&S Group. It had caused an uproar in the industry.”

"The two big families in Khebury turned against each other because of

Joyce. The deceased has passed away, yet the living can not rest in

peace!"

"Mr. Henderson declared to the public that Joyce was his fiancée and

offered a reward of ten million dollars for a single lead.”

"It has been the eighth day since the disappearance of Joyce, and the

police announced today that they would stop the search now.”

“The industry speculates that there is no hope of survival.”

"Mr. Warner insisted that he wouldn't give up, throwing his money

around by the day and sending dozens of helicopters all over the city."

"Miss Heath remains in a coma from her miscarriage, her lover now

dead. Can there be more hidden stories in the feud of the families?"

"Seventy-two golden rescue hours has passed, and so far Joyce has

not yet been found.”

"The Maritime Emergency Response Team has been withdrawn and

taken over by the Maritime Association, and civil organizations will

continue to search for Joyce's whereabouts.”

"Breaking: A serious terrorist shooting in our city has left one dead, one

missing and one seriously injured.”

“Two detectives were shot and injured in this incident and are being

resuscitated.”

"Police rule out terrorist attack. Possibly just personal vendetta.”

"Mr. Warner is in a coma, his ex-wife is still missing, and his fiancée

miscarried on the spot.

"Breaking: Joyce fell off a cliff and disappeared after a terrorist attack

with no hope of survival?"

"Headline: Magnificent engagement party ends in a bloody tragedy.

Could it be just new love and old love fighting for jealousy?”

When she finished flipping through the news for the past ten days.

Her mind went blank for a moment.

Ricky was dead?

Joyce was dead too?

Oh, how did that happen?
