The two locked eyes, with Emma conceding defeat, her teeth gritted in frustration.

“Alright! I’m giving you this one shot, but if anything should happen to my daughter, I swear I’ll fight you till my last breath!”

With Emma out of the way, Sylvia walked into the ward unhindered, ordering her bodyguards to lift

Hedda onto a stretcher.

Under Emma’s reluctant and apprehensive gaze, Hedda was taken away.

By the time Sylvia returned to Patric’s villa, it was already 10 o’clock in the evening.

The remnants of the sunset painted the sky in tender shades of orange, casting a soft glow over the entire Frant City.

Patric set up Hedda in one of the guest rooms, then sat with Sylvia, mulling over their next move.

Hedda’s face was peaceful, her eyes closed as if in a serene sleep.

“Her condition seems stable, all vitals are within normal range.” Patric received a medical report from their personal physician, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

Sylvia grabbed the report, her eyes sweeping over Hedda on the bed, her eyebrows knitting together in

concern.

“Waking a patient in a vegetative state is no cakewalk. The Mellis family has thrown money at renowned doctors from all over the world to no avail. If we’re to make any progress with Hedda, we’ll have to pull out all the stops.”

Patric’s fingers drummed lightly on the coffee table, turning the ashtray around.

“What do you mean?”

A flicker of confusion passed through Sylvia’s eyes.

“You cheeky little thing, have you forgotten?”

Patric gently knocked on her head.

“Did you forget about your brother Chad, the medical whiz with a Master’s degree? Not many can question his expertise and authority.”
