Let's Get Married novel Chapter 271

When Rex rushes to the emergency room, all the medical staff are in the room, no one leaves.

The patient’s death in the operating table due to an ‘accident’, is considered as the first major medical malpractice since the hospital was established, according to the internal system of the hospital.

Naturally, Karl feels no good. What’s more terrifying is the man who has followed him. His handsome face almost gets uglier, as his expression is as dark as an iron in the cold wind.

Rex walks to the operating table. All the equipment is still connected to Melly. However, the index above has no fluctuation, all of which have turned into a straight line.

She is dead.

The attending doctor, Zack is accountable. He can only step forward, “Sorry, Karl. Sorry, Rex. The patient did not survive.”

He slightly bows to them and continues, “The cause of death is that… she was injected with barbiturates and etamsylate.”

Karl’s face changes dramatically. He knows the ingredients. To be precise, Everyone who studies medical is familiar with them. Barbiturates is a kind of anesthetics that can make people lose consciousness in no time, while etamsylate has a blood clotting function. Combining the two together can kill people immediately and there will be no adverse reactions. If it works fast, one could lose vital signs in less than half a minute.

If chloride is added… It is like euthanasia.

In this way, Melly’s death seems uncanny and shocking. It turns out to be a murder from a medical accident, and this syringe was injected by Lily herself.

Rex feels the subtle changes in the atmosphere. Instead of looking at Melly on the operating table, he turns around to ask Karl, “Is it an abnormal death?”

Karl nods bitterly, “Yes.”

Rex’s expression remains poker-faced. His gaze slightly turns to the medical staff on the side, his black eyes like lasers that could penetrate people’s hearts. “Without my permission, you are not allowed to leak the accident to anyone. And do not announce the death.”

Karl frowns, “Rex, this is illegal…”

“I know.” Rex interrupts him without any intention to stop. Instead, he asks further, “I will take away the footage of the ward.”

Karl is shocked for a second, “This is no trifle to privately copy and clear the footage…”

He stops right there and does not continue to talk further. Rex knows what he meant.

They look at each other in silence. They have built up a tacit understanding over the years so that they can understand each other just by a glance.

Rex says nothing but he looks serious, “Karl, do you believe me?”

Karl knows what it means to take away the monitoring record in the ICU ward of a private hospital. Moreover, there is a big ‘accident’ in this ward. No one will dare to agree this request without any trust.

Even though they are well acquainted with each other, it should be treated differently.

Hence, Rex himself also does not have the answer for his own question. People will think it understandable for Karl to reject Rex. And that would be crazy if Karl does so.

Karl looks into Rex’s eyes that are filled with pain, anxiety, and the same shock as he is. But put all this aside, there are also firmness and faith.

Such Rex is no strange to him. Five years ago, when Rex was handling the big lawsuit that made him famous, he had the exactly same expression at that time.

He does not want anything. He just wants to find out those possibilities for Lily.

Thus, he nods in agreement, “Okay.”
