Let's Get Married novel Chapter 268

They go to the control room together. Karl also calls the security manager who pressed Lily to the ground.

Since it only happened not long ago, it does not take much time to find the monitoring record. The surveillance camera in the hospital can only catch scenes but no sounds. This at least is the best for the patient. Even ICU patients have no right to look into the monitor.

Looking at the black-and-white screen displayed on the computer, Lily does not notice anything at first. However, she begins to break into a cold sweat when she discovers that the monitor is only on Melly’s ward, Marina’s ward out of range.

Sally looks at Lily’s pale face and asks in a worried tone, “Are you okay?”

No, Lily’s not good.

Lily stands still as if she is nailed to the ground. In the scene, she and Marina walked inside in the same protective clothing. They were facing the bed and chatting. Everything seemed normal. But soon things went abnormally, Marina took a step back and walked out of the ward, leaving her alone.

Lily walked a few steps towards the bedside, and pulled open the medical kit to take out the injection. She took out a medicine tube from the pocket of her protective clothing. Finally, she injected the medicine into Melly’s drip bottle.

Later, the equipment rang and the security staff and medical staff rushed in together. Lily was pressed to the ground as if being the suspect caught on the spot.

With a click, the video stops. The staff in the control room presses the paused button, and said in a flat tone, “Mr. Director, Mr. Rex, this is the footage at that time, do I need to play it further?”

No one speaks, no one answers.

The silence in the control room is awful.

Time wears on imperceptibly. The security manager standing at the back suddenly groans, “See, I was right, it was her! When I rushed in, I saw her. She still had the syringe in her hand. Mr. Director, if you still don’t believe me, you can wait for Doctor Zackk to finish the operation and ask him. He must have seen it too, so that he pressed the emergency call button!”

The manager does the utmost to support his idea, trying to prove that he had caught a bad person who wanted to kill someone, and that Lily is not a good person.

“Is it?” Rex snorts. His deep dark eyes are even more terrifying this time. Nobody knows what he is thinking, but that extremely stressful aura fills the room.

He stands up and walks slowly towards the manager. He stands there in a suit and leather shoes. He is conceited, arrogant, but noble. However, the next move shocked the people present.

Rex punches his face hard with a fist. With a soft click sound, the manager’s nose bone fractured. Rex follows him again and lifts him by the collar, “You know it well, huh?”

The manager is beaten with blood all over his face. When he meets the Rex’s fierce eyes, the manager pleads to Karl in fear and trepidation, “Mr. Director, help me. Please help me!”

Even though Karl does not like this manager, after all, the manager was his employee before today. Moreover, they are in the control room. Rex cannot mess things up here. Based on his current mental state, he can possibly do anything bad.

Before Karl could step forward to dissuade him, a petite figure stands in front of Rex.

Lily clenches Rex’s arms tightly to stop him from taking the next action, she then exclaims, “Stop it. It has nothing to do with him!”

Rex looks fearsome. Hearing Lily’s words, he stares straight at the manager. His eyes become scarlet, his anger to the extreme. Rex raises his hand to wave her away.

Lily sheds tears again, wailing like a howling animal. “Just come at me. Beating irrelevant people is a coward!”

Her words successfully stop Rex. His firm and unyielding fist hangs in the air with a terrible force in it.

Sally raises her hand to cover her mouth, for fear that she will make a sound. She clearly sees that Rex is falling apart little by little. She is afraid that he will hurt Lily…
