Chapter 0260

It was as if Peach had been holding back for a long time. She couldn’t stop crying. She was

receiving a blood transfusion, but now because of her movement there was blood flowing back through the infusion tube.

Candice’s attention was still on what Peach had just said. Her mind was in disarray as she stared at her. “Repeat what you just said.”

Peach sobbed, her eyes, now red, fixed on Candice. Her small face, once round, now seemed like a bag of bones after who knows what Yvonne had done. Her cheekbones protruded, emphasizing her large and round eyes.

Candice sighed internally, reaching out to pat Peach’s head. “Don’t be afraid. Just say whatever you know.”

Peach was young and already frightened by the things she was holding back. Although she had not interacted much with Candice, she had been subtly influenced by Yvonne’s indoctrination, forming the idea that Candice was a good older sister.

That was why, upon seeing Candice, she burst into tears.

“No, Daddy didn’t want to take Grandpa for a walk. That day, I saw Daddy and Grandpa arguing. When Daddy got angry, he hit Grandpa, just like how he usually hits me. Then, Grandpa’s face

mask fell off.”

Candice stared at Peach in horror, shocked.

There were surveillance cameras in the hospital, but they were usually limited to public areas like corridors. In patient rooms, to protect privacy, there generally were no cameras.

The evidence against Ivor was mainly based on his own guilty testimonies, Yvonne’s tacit acknowledgement, and various previous criminal records. There was no actual surveillance footage in the patient room. But now, Peach’s words undoubtedly once again confirmed Ivor’s

actions.

A chill ran through Candice’s heart, and a hint of fierceness flashed in her eyes. She closed her eyes, trying to suppress her feelings.

Candice lowered her head, noticing Peach’s hand. She called a nurse to attend to it and then left
