Chapter 1722

The old butler watched as Mirabella made her way to the door, curiosity getting the better of him. "Miss Mira, heading out again?" he called after her.

Mirabella, fresh off a phone call, gave him a polite nod, skipping the explanations. She made her way to the foyer, grabbed the car keys she'd left on the cabinet, and headed out.

It wasn't long before the roar of a car engine echoed from outside.

The butler stood there for a moment in the courtyard, shaking his head before retreating back into the mansion.

**Meanwhile, over at the Davis family's private hospital.**

Grady hung up the phone and turned to Dr. Ray. "Let's hold on a bit longer."

Dr. Ray frowned. "But Keir's hanging by a thread. His heart's already taken a hit from a bullet before, and he hasn't exactly been careful with his health. Now with another bullet wound in his chest... We can't keep pushing off the surgery. He doesn't even have a whisper of a chance."

Grady's fists tightened, his eyes burning with worry. The urgency of the situation was not lost on him.

A second surgery at the same spot was risky, and even though he wasn't a doctor, he knew the odds were slim. But that whisper of a chance... it was a risk he couldn't afford.

Gritting his teeth, Grady pressed on, "Let's wait a bit longer. Dr. Ray, please do whatever you can to keep Keir alive. Thank you."

He remembered how Miss Mira had pulled Nick back from the brink just last year. Maybe Keir could have that same stroke of luck. Dr. Ray sighed, "Alright, I'll give it my all. But there's something you need to know. Keir's blood type is rare, and he hasn't stored any blood here in years. We've got one pack left, but it's far from enough."
