Wed to the Billionaire Brother of My Spouse by Doris

Chapter 4 Abuse

The basin of water didn't wake Jasmine; it only caused her to spike a high fever.

"What the hell happened here? We need to act fast!" Shouted the doctor, who was just making rounds when he noticed Jasmine's pallid complexion and bluish lips. "Get her to the ER, now!"

Frozen in place, Daniel's fingers tingled with both shock and anger as he grabbed onto Evan's collar. "I thought you said she was faking it?"

Evan, clearly panicked, shook off Daniel's grip. "How was I supposed to know? She's quite the actress. Ever heard of The Boy Who Cried Wolf?"

"Don't worry, she's not going to die," Karen said confidently, her heels clicking on the floor, exuding the air of a wealthy matriarch. "Doctor, she agreed to donate a kidney to our Serena. While you're at it, check if her kidney's a match, would you?"

The doctor frowned. "Let's focus on the emergency at hand."

"Dr. Ryan, remember your father and Benjamin are good friends. I'd rather not spell everything out," Karen insinuated, hinting for the doctor to prioritize the transplant since there was consent and all the paperwork would be handled. Any complications wouldn't fall heavily on the doctor or the hospital.

Jasmine was whisked away by the emergency team. Dr. Ryan stood up, straightened his white coat, and gave Daniel and Evan a glance. "Mrs. Olivia, I am a physician. My duty is to treat and save patients. As for anything else, that's beyond my purview."

Evan, visibly irritated, started to retort but was stopped by Karen.

"What's the rush? We'll just have your father give his father a call. Doctors have their pride; some matters shouldn't be discussed so openly." Karen turned to Daniel. "Remember, Daniel, Serena is your fiancée. It's your responsibility to take care of her."

Daniel nodded. "Aunt Karen, I will."
