Chapter 905

Tiana's mind was in turmoil, questioning everything from the start. Furious, she demanded, "Where is my cousin? Call him over. I want him to explain everything from start to finish on our way here!"

"Alright, I'll call your aunt."

"Mom, let's head to the Central Hospital first!"

Returning to Banyan City after months, Tiana found her childhood city unwelcoming and cold. Until she was twenty-three, she had been the darling of the Melford family, Fabian's precious daughter, living a charmed and whimsical life.

But at twenty-four, her life was shattered by Barclay, marking a turning point.

Since then, life lost its color.

The cold shoulder Banyan City gave her over these three years turned it into a cold, unwelcoming place in her eyes.

The Central Hospital was located downtown. As expected, Tiana couldn't get any information about the Caldwell family at the reception desk.

It was as if a warning had been issued; the staff were icy in their responses.

Celine, worried, said, "I don't know if the Caldwell family is deliberately making things difficult for us. This morning, your aunt and I came here, and it was only after much difficulty that we got through to Thomas's dad on the phone. He swore at us, forbidding us from seeing Thomas's body, claiming he was in the hospital himself and threatened anyone who tried to bring a coroner to the morgue with violence. Then, he had us escorted out by security."

Tiana narrowed her eyes, suspecting Matthew Caldwell's hospital stay was a front, his real intent to guard his son's body.

She pressed the nurse, "I'm asking you again, in which wing is the Caldwell family staying?"

"Miss! I've already told you, you can't invade the patient's privacy. Mr. Caldwell isn't seeing anyone, and you should forget about trying to get to the morgue," the nurse replied firmly. Tiana understood then; the hospital was likely under the Caldwell family's influence.

Otherwise, why would they be so bold with her, a Melford?
