Chapter 700:

Cara’s wild screams echoed down the hall as she was dragged away.

Jake readied himself to leave with Calvin and Elma. Considering the urgency of the situation, the two children needed to be rushed to the hospital fast.

But Clayton halted Jake. “I’ll take the kids to the hospital. You stay and watch over Cara. If she escapes, there’s no telling what chaos she’ll unleash. Moreover…”
