Chapter 83

In the early hours of the morning, Jennifer was taken to the hospital for treatment.

The initial diagnosis from the doctor indicated two fractured ribs, mild concussion, and other minor and major injuries. Luckily, there was nothing life–threatening.

Elijah sat alone on a bench outside the operating room, lost in thought. After the incident, he asked Leon to inform the Moore family, but Kennedy and Vanessa only rushed to the hospital when the sun had risen.

“Oh, my beloved Jenny! How could something like this happen!” Vanessa’s wailing voice echoed down the corridor, but oddly, her eyes remained dry. Not only that, but it seemed as if she was secretly happy about what had happened.

In contrast, Kennedy approached Elijah with a sorrowful expression. Seeing Elijah’s solemn gaze, he offered some comforting words.

Elijah politely replied, “Please, have a seat, Uncle and Auntie.”

Kennedy, unwilling to be dismissed, asked, “Mr. Freeman, what exactly happened? How did Jenny end up like this? Who did this to her?”

Hannah had recently been in a car accident and was still in a vegetative state, and now Jennifer was also in a similar condition. Was someone deliberately targeting the Moore family, or was it just a run of bad luck?

Elijah hesitated before answering, “Leon is already investigating.”

Seeing Elijah’s indifference, Kennedy refrained from pressing the matter and sat on a nearby bench to wait. Hardly two minutes after sitting down, the operating room lights turned off.

The doctor informed them that Jennifer’s surgery had been successful, and she only needed to take it easy for a while. Then, Jennifer was moved to a regular VIP ward.
