Chapter 168

When they got to the hospital, the operating room light was still on.

“Why is everyone here?” Bennett was standing in the hallway, looking, confused at the crowd rushing in, but he didn’t have time to say hi.

“A security camera nearby caught Lisa coming out of the bathroom. A little while later, someone heard a baby crying

“The baby was found headfirst in the water tank, choking and with lung infections. The umbilical cord had strangled its neck. It’s very serious. The doctors are working on it, but we might need help from the charity fund for the medical bills, Bennett explained.

The police could give emergency help, but the hospital wasn’t a charity. Bennett’s salary wasn’t enough to cover the costs, so he had to ask Quinlyn for help early in the morning. Without a second thought, Quinlyn handed over her card. “Save the baby first.”

A young officer immediately went to pay the bill.

Claude was holding Mandy’s hand, his face as cold as stone. “She’s the mother. How could she be so heartless?”

At the very least, she could’ve left the baby at the doorstep of Quinlyn Welfare Home instead of trying to drown it. Everyone thought Lisa was evil.

Bennett sighed, “Recently, there’ve been a lot of cases of abandoned babies. It’s not a rare thing anymore. People are too scared to even go into public restrooms.”

That was why they increased patrols. Fortunately, an hour later, the baby was finally saved.

When the nurse wheeled out the incubator, Quinlyn leaned in and saw the baby’s tiny hand slightly open, like it was trying to grab something. “She might be missing her mom. You can touch her,” the nurse said.

With permission, Quinlyn slowly reached in. The delicate little hand grabbed hers and wouldn’t let go. The strength of life made Quinlyn smile. So this was what the baby in her belly would have looked like.

The baby was then taken to the observation room and would only be sent to the welfare home after its vital signs were completely stable. Lisa was being wanted for child abandonment.

When Jolie heard about it, she went off on a rant over the phone. “We were doing free health education activities for high school and college students nearby because of this. We found out that many people still don’t get it.
