Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 283

Chapter 283

Killian rushed over with a team in tow, his heart sinking at the sight inside the hospital room.

While directing his team to subdue the intruders, he made his way to Natalia's side.

"Ms. Jenkins."

Natalia turned to him, her face and lips pale, her voice shaking violently, "Call a doctor, call a doctor!" Killian hurried out to fetch a doctor.

The emergency room lights remained on for over an hour.

Killian stayed by Natalia's side throughout.

Elliott, having heard about the situation, rushed over in concern.

"Natalia, don't worry. I've got all the hospital's top docs on this."

Natalia nodded, whispering a soft "Thank you."

Elliott frowned. "Did you call Hamilton?"

Natalia's eyes fell. She had tried calling him earlier, only to find his phone off.

Perhaps his flight was delayed.

"Mr. Fowler's still on the plane."

Killian spoke up for Natalia.

Elliott frowned deeper, turning to Killian. "What about those people? What happened?"

Killian glanced at Natalia, then spoke in a low voice.

"Those people, they seem to have been in contact with Westley's crew before."

Natalia gasped, "What did you say?"

Killian quickly explained, "Mr. Fowler had me keep an eye on the old man's movements. Their leader, he met with Westley's bodyguard yesterday. I just didn't expect them to come after us here." Natalia pressed her lips together, a sudden wave of guilt washing over her.

Was it because of her connection to the Fowler family?

In an instant, her heart filled with remorse.

Was it all because of her selfish decision to be with Hamilton?

Natalia felt a suffocating pain in her heart.

Killian wanted to offer comfort but found himself at a loss for words.

"Ms. Jenkins, don't overthink it. Maybe I'm reading too much into it. We still need to investigate further," he started to say but was cut off as Natalia's phone buzzed with a new message. She glanced down, a photo catching her eye.

In the picture, Hamilton stood beside Eveleen's hospital bed, her wrist bandaged and her face pale as she looked up at him.
