Chapter 721

Having undergone professional boxing training, Ian’s formidable blow bloodied the physician’s mouth and rendered him unable to rise.

“Halt him!” the physician, gritting his teeth through the pain, shouted at the petrified Lola. Lola had always perceived Ian as a gentle, well-mannered individual. His ferocity took her aback, leaving her too frightened to intervene.

She could only stand frozen as he stormed off. After incapacitating the physician, Ian swiftly navigated to Laney’s ward.

As he rounded the corner, Laney’s scream pierced the air, “Ah!”

“Damn it!” Panic gripped Ian’s heart as he dashed into the room

Entering, he found Laney on the ground, holding her stomach in pain, her countenance pale as she winced, almost frail.

Ian was shocked that such an incident would occur when he was out for only a few minutes. He felt his ch*st tighten as he hurriedly moved forward to help Laney up so she could sit on her bed. “Mrs. Harding, what happened? How did you fall all of a sudden?”

Laney rested against the bed, clutching her stomach in pain Her breathing grew faster by the minute and cold sweat dripped down all over her body. She stuttered, “Just… now… A care worker came to clean… I wanted to get out of bed to get a glass of water after she left, I never expected… the floor close to the bed to be so sl*ppery… It made me fall…”

“A care worker?”

Lola and the attending physician’s abnormal behavior a few moments ago came to Ian’s mind, then there was the appearance of this care worker. Ian’s instinct told him that this entire thing was a scheme.

However, there was no time to think of such things at the moment.

Ian saw that Laney’s clothing was damp bet**en her legs, indicating her water had broken. She was likely about to have a premature delivery.
